Instructions
Select a team which has a receiver with a high "spectacular-catch" rating. Examples of these types of receivers include Chad Ocho Cinco, Terrell Owens, Randy Moss, Larry Fitzgerald and Andre Johnson.
Lob a high pass out in front of your receiver. Tap the receiver's assigned button and push the analog stick upward. Pushing the stick upward will aim the pass out ahead of your receiver, while quickly pressing the assigned receiver button will lob the pass in an arc.
Switch to control of the receiver by pressing the "O" button on the PS3 or the "B" button on the Xbox 360 or Nintendo Wii.
Wait until just before the pass arrives and tap the "Triangle" button on the PS3 or the "Y" button on the Xbox 360. If you are using the Wii, jerk the Wii remote up into the air with your wrist. If done properly, your receiver has a great chance of making a spectacular one-handed catch.
