i think that the Tyree catch is still better because of the down and distance... it was fourth down... versus a team chasing NFL history: the Patriot were going to tie the Dolphins as the only undefeated SB champion in history.

tyree drops that ball, game over.

Edelman drops that ball, its second down.

it was the greatest comeback in NFL history, but i don't see Edelman's catch at the best....definitely in the top 10, arguably in the top 5...
