Cuz he's humble. If you watched it, you can see that is not luck.
He had concentration and luck, it hit off the first defender to the right spot, the ball isn't kicked out by a defender. It is luck, it's the way the ball bounces. Great catch, still luck is involved.
That's not luck. He went after that ball, and his persistence paid off. Luck is when a ball bounces of your leg or head and lands in your hands!
It originally bounced of a defender and he was lucky that the defenders legs didn't kick the ball. Concentration yes, but also luck, it is the breaks of the game. Same as the lucky Giants play, things happen and you need to put yourself in place to receive the luck.
I don't think Tyree's catch was luck
He had two hands on the ball and Harrison pulled one away. The only reaction anyone would have would be to trap the ball against your body. In this case, his head was the only thing available
What was amazing was his ability to maintain control as he was brought to the ground
An obvious case of "helmet stick-um"...someone alert Roger Goodell! A RULE has been broken!!!
Velcro!
