The best play of Week 7 in the NFL wasn't a touchdown or a throw or a catch. Instead, it was DK Metcalf running down Budda Baker to save a pick-six.

If you thought that play couldn't get any better, Baker was actually mic'd up for it and his reaction to Metcalf chasing him down in real time was pure gold.

"How did he catch me?!"@buddabaker32 was mic'd up for our OT thriller vs. the Seahawks.

Budda showed DK respect on Twitter for the play and he was just as amazed as everyone watching that Metcalf caught him. Arizona got the big win, though, and that play (despite Metcalf's best effort) was key in the win.
