Puka's is arguably the best of all time, for several reasons:
- In the rain
- Backhanded
- DB's hand also on the ball
- NOT a "goal line" lob / fade pass
^^this is the one reason I haven't heard yet: Puka made a side-line grab of a ball that was coming in hot, a 31-yd pass that was probably over 40-yds in the air
Stack all these together & it's a good case for "all time" catch.

One of the best catches I've ever seen. The fact that he did it in the rain only makes it crazier.
Well, Puka did say he wanted to be the Very Best WR.

I would like him to last more than 9 seasons. So I like that the number of targets has lowered since his injury. Staffords tendancy to lock on to his favorite receiver wares them out. I like the frequency of the personel changes. I remember an interview where Kupp mentioned how nobody seems to realize how hard it is to run route after route wether you get the ball or not.

Unsure if the DBs arm wasn't in the position it was he could have made that catch.
Possibly could have. But the DB helped make that a catch.

That's an interesting observation. It does also look to me as if the DB's hand did in fact somewhat support the ball, where if that didn't happen the ball would have dropped to the ground before Puka could get a grasp on it.
And, this just makes the catch that more improbable and the best ever I've seen!

Funny, I see puka has the ball in his hand, then the DB dislodges it a little so puka pulls down to his body to corral it. Maybe not. But either way puka was pulling it down to himself with or without the DB

So instead of 1 best ever catch, today he just made multiple amazing catches. Stafford just throws it up in his general directions and the ball just sticks to him.
In the Bengals/Bills game the announcer said Chase was the best WR in the game.
Puka might have a issue with that.
I know I do. You can take Puka Nacua, and go to WAR with that kid.

Puka played out of his mind today.
A freaking superhero.... sign him up to join the Avengers against Dr. Doom.

Before the season started, I bought an authentic Puka Nacua NFL autographed helmet for $500. Might have been a good investment. LOL

back in march my son saw puka on the street after a lakers game and said hello. he was so hyped by meeting him he bought his top of the range #17 jersey. two days later puka changed his number to 12.
to say he was glum is an understatement.

Lol. Pretty much.
That’s why I’m always saying, “throw it to Nacua!” when the Rams need a big play.
How is he NOT the best all around WR in the NFL?
I heard that too. I also saw higgins make a couple great snags
Still…can either of them do ALL of the things Nacua does?
No.
If it was in doubt, the last 2 weeks cemented Puka as the best WR in the NFL this year.
