We remember Drew Pearson who was born in New Jersey on this day in 1951.

Who remembers "The Hail Mary" pass?   It is one of the most exciting plays in Dallas Cowboys' history.   It was Staubach to Pearson, a magical pass from the 1974 post season.

Pearson had a great career with the Dallas Cowboys:
"In 11 seasons with the Dallas Cowboys, Drew Pearson rose from undrafted free agent rookie to one of the club's all-time leading receivers, from unknown to legend. Named to the All-Decade Team of the 1970s by the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1980, Pearson earned a niche as one of the top clutch receivers in football history."
After football, Pearson went into business and still does analysis on radio and TV.
