Greatest Super Bowl Of All Time
Super Bowl 51 between the Falcons and Patriots had remarkable catches with Julio Jones and Julian Edelman both making potential game-changing grabs.
But where did they rank among the best all-time Super Bowl catches? Let’s take a look.
6. Lynn Swann – Super Bowl X

The Steelers’ fourth-quarter rally was made possible thanks in part to Swann’s sensational, juggling 53-yard reception. The concentration involved in that catch was just ridiculous.
5. Jermaine Kearse – Super Bowl XLIX
Up until Sunday night, Kearse had probably the greatest catch nobody will talk about. With the Seahawks driving and trailing the Patriots by 4 points, Kearse stayed with a ball that bounced off his leg and right into his hands. The Seahawks, of course, didn’t capitalize as Malcolm Butler made his Super Bowl-clinching interception at the goal line.
4. Julio Jones – Super Bowl 51
If the Falcons had went with the run game instead of melting down, we’d be talking about this catch from Jones for years to come. Still, it was insane. The athleticism, the body control, the skill involved on this catch was basically at superhuman levels. It just didn’t matter in the end.
3. Santonio Holmes – Super Bowl XLIII
Ben Roethlisberger gets a lot of credit — deservedly so — for the throw, but Holmes ability to locate the ball, make the catch and stay in bounds all in that moment went down in history.

2. Julian Edelman – Super Bowl 51
The Falcons needed a play, and they almost got it. But instead, it turned into an all-time Super Bowl catch. With the Patriots down 8 in their game-tying drive, Robert Alford got his hand on a Tom Brady pass and tipped the ball in the air. Both Ricardo Allen and Keanu Neal dove for the ball in hopes of making the game-saving interception. Yet, Edelman somehow beat all those defenders to the ball and kept it from hitting the turf. The rest was history.
1. David Tyree – Super Bowl XLII
Greatest Super Bowl Ever
It will be tough, if not impossible, to beat this catch. The Patriots were undefeated and cruising to the NFL’s first 19-0 season. But Tyree’s helmet grab on third down set up the Giants’ game-winning touchdown and put an end to the Patriots’ hopes at history. Edelman’s catch was ridiculous, but difficulty and significance of Tyree’s catch still tops it all.
