    An obvious choice for Steelers fans, Troys catch was SWEET. Actually, my non-bias pick would be the Dolphins flea flicker at #7.

    Honestly, I still can't decide which catch was better, the one they picked as No. 1 or the pick aganist the Eagles, almost the same catch, only Troy had to dive over a teammate to get there.

    Who wouldn't love to have an Andre Johnson that can fight for a ball in traffic like that??

    ESPN had Troy at #2. Bryant at #1. I've seen catches like Bryant's before...heck, Booker's one handed catch against the Lions (see below) is more impressive that Bryant's, imo. He's being interfered with and still makes a ridiculous one-handed grab. If he hadn't been interfered with he would probably have stayed in bounds.

    I've never, ever seen a pick like Troy's before though. Not so much that I'm worried about subjective rankings, but sheesh...the athleticism required to do what Troy did...it's simply astounding.

    There was a 50 yard pass to Steve Smith at the end of their recent game against GB that should have been on the list. That guy's got some amazing body control in going after a ball in the air.

    Also they left of Troy's backward tackle.

    Ben's TD pass to Tonio at the end of the Ravens game was nice.

    As was Harrison's sack/fumble returned for a TD by Woodley.
