NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- It's being called the greatest play in Super Bowl history, but it still needs a name.
Name the catch in our forum below
In the fourth quarter of last Sunday's nail-biting game, Giants QB Eli Manning escaped from three near sacks, stepped back and hurled a 'Hail Mary' pass to wide receiver David Tyree.
Tyree somehow caught the ball by trapping it against his helmet with one hand -- all while he was being tackeled and falling to the ground.
So take a minute to name the catch.

with that amazing helmet catch, the Giant's went from almost losing the Superbowl (Football Hell) to back to the winning side!

THE PLAY
There is "The Catch" and the Immaculate Reception already but since this had 2 amazing feats on one play, i think it should just be called "THE PLAY"
