Eli Manning Explains Why Odell Beckham’s Slants Were So Good

Him and AB was doing this weekly 😂

Those first 3 years were crazy.

Burst starts when he snatches the ball out of the air....Chase and Nabers do the same thing

Not just slants but he had an immaculate release package. Dude was hard to press. Undortunate his prime was cut short by injuries

What helps the most is that he was a true hands WR. He wouldn’t just catch it, he would snatch it out the air and accelerate while doing it, his catch to tuck was almost instant so he was able to get up field faster while other receivers would still be transitioning.

Obj speed on them slant routes was different that was the bread n butter play one slant to obj take it to the crib 😂😂

Give OBJ his respect I hear this career off one catch shit way too often

He just got up to top speed quick.

Man, before Odell victor Cruz was fucking lethal

2016 against Baltimore 4th quarter less than a min left, took a slant like 65 yards to win the game. Before the injuries top 3 most dynamic WRs ive ever watched. He was incredible

Which is exactly why once he got injured he was never the same.

He would have made a great Niner back in the day.They lived off slants

I love speedy receivers so much

Healthy Odell was a STAR! Swagger on and off the field.

Odell was so explosive it was unreal. As a giants fan, our team outside of Odell and Eli was awful. But, you knew every week Odell could single handedly put up 14 points. And he typically did.

Because he was the first receiver to see how defensive players are not allowed to take your head off on a slant

It’s called catch n go…

Legendary moments by 13 from 2014-16.

All young receivers Attack that ball over the middle full speed on that slant

Odell and Michael Thomas are slant Gods
