    Not looking for importance, because they were all important in their own way.

    Out of Martavis Bryant, Santonio Holmes & Franco Harris, which was the BETTER catch?

    Happy voting

    For me that is easy when I think about the impact of the outcome of the catch. There really is none more impactful than the immaculate reception that arguably was the start of the dynasty. The others are great in their own right.

    You can't compare Bryants catch to the others. They're not even in the same category. Bryant's catch was spectacular to watch, but the actual importance on the game wasn't anywhere close to the other two.

    I thought Toussaint had a great catch on the final drive as well. Bryant's was unbelievable, but didn't have quite the significance in terms of when it happened and which game it was caught in. Doesn't take away anything from the play tho. One of the craziest catches I've ever seen

    I want to say Franco, but I have to say Holmes. That catch to win a Super Bowl was amazing. But it's really a coin flip for me. Both were 2 of the best plays in NFL history.

    I initially called it our greatest NON Super Bowl catch ever but then when I calmed down I realized I had forgotten the Immaculate Reception for some reason. That is the greatest and most significant catch in a non Super Bowl of all time. I would then say Bryan'ts was the best since in a non Super Bowl. Obviously, the Holmes td is incredibly significant and is our most important Super Bowl catch of all time. Although some can reasonably argue the Harrison pick is equally significant. Man we have a rich history.

    It's not even close.... Immaculate reception

    Holmes catch was more talented and impressive IMO. Bryant shouldn't have bobbled the ball in the first place.

    Bryant needs to catch the ball initially and not bang his leg bringing it down.
