Kelvin Benjamin Not As Impressed With Odell Beckham Jr.'s Catch As the Rest of Us

Ever since New York Giants wide receiver Odell Bechkham Jr. made what has become the most famous catch of the season Sunday night the football loving free world has not stopped gushing about how great it was. Many have called it the best catch they have ever seen and easily the year's best. It would be hard to argue against them.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin doesn't think so.

Benjamin will admit that it was a pretty good catch, but as for the best ever or even of the season? Not so much. In fact, on a scale of 1-10 he gives it a 9.

“It was about a 9,” Benjamin said via the Charlotte Observer.

When asked what could make it a 10 his response was to catch it with eyes closed so it very well could be that Benjamin is like that professor that only gives out a B+' and never an A. Some Panthers fans would say it's because he's made some pretty sweet ones too:

It could also just be him getting tired of reporters always wanting players to draw comparisons between their own body of work and someone else's.

“Why are y’all always trying to compare things? It was a great catch,” he said.

So true Kelvin. So true.
