Jeremy Maclin Makes One-Handed Catch For Big First Down

The Eagles lost, but this was still a great catch.

The 49ers beat the Eagles 26-21, but Jeremy Maclin tried his damnedest for a Philly comeback.The Eagles were down five with just over three minutes left in the game when Maclin reeled this in with one hand. It was a third-and-14 play that momentarily kept the Eagles drive, and hopes, alive.

Philly worked the ball all the way down to the San Francisco one-yard line but on fourth-and-goal Nick Foles again looked for Maclin, but wasn't as lucky this time and the Niners took over on downs. San Francisco could have put the game away with a sustained drive, but they went three-and-out giving the Eagles one last chance for a comeback. The Eagles scuffled, though, and Foles was picked off on fourth-and-24 to end the game.
