Drew Pearson Highlights

[@isaiahblackmon991]

He finally going to the Hall of Fame 2021 !!!

[@mukinmukin6352]

The catch, the run, the TD and the beautiful leap right in front of the camera at 0:40. That play could've been part of a network game intro package. Just perfect

[@romin388]

Hill and Pearson together where a great pair of receivers..Tony Hill is extremely underrated

[@wayneoneal7952]

I grew up watching this every Sunday! Born 61...we forget how good those Cowboys were! The original 88 MR.DREW PEARSON!

[@DC4L99]

That’s awesome man, he was way before my time. I think he should be in the hall of fame though. Has some of the most iconic catches in nfl history, very underrated receiver.

[@mikeydrookie351]

How is Drew Pearson not in the Hall of Fame????

[@DC4L99]

Mikey D'Rookie I honestly don’t know, but he deserves to be in.

[@spencerpearson3986]

Mikey D'Rookie he is now!

[@dbx1233]

So, you are 61 years old, and you were also born in 61, how's that even possible? I'm just messing with you. I was also born in 1961 and was raised on the Dallas Cowboys.

[@clifftanton8385]

Man what a legendary player

[@rblu7916]

Drew was the greatest to me ✊🏾

[@chriso8193]

Imma keep it real: I hated the Staubach/Danny White Cowboys, as I was a Steelers fan, but I love the competitiveness of this team. I had 3 Drew Pearson NFL cards and traded one for Earl Campbell and Billy White Shoes Johnson of the Oilers. Everyone has Roger, Tony Dorsett & Robert Newhouse. There was Too-Tall, Hollywood, etc. Tough squad to beat in the NFC. Plus, there was something "fly" about Tom Landry with the coats and hat...all business!!! Much props!!!

[@christopherunfus8962]

He should have been a first ballot Hall of Famer.

[@sambamcunningham2170]

#88 Drew Pearson definitely deserves to be Enshrined into the Pro football Hall-of-fame just because of Who he Was individually and What he did Offensively for that Cowboys franchise athletically back then Altogether ! Welcome to Canton, Ohio there Mr. Drew the good and Reliable hand's man Pearson, you're Rightfully taking Your deserved Place into that Pro football Hall-of-fame Museum as it Should've been Way before now in my Personal like Opinion.... 🖐️🏈🖐️👍👌💙

Agreed Sam, absolutely deserves to be in the hall of fame. Thanks for the comment 👍.

Drew Pearson and Roger Staubach invented the football Hail Mary 🙌 That alone is historical!

[@globalsetdarkpool8276]

Uhhhh no Al Davis and the Raiders

[@spencerpearson3986]

GlobalSet DarkPool nope, that was the deep pass. Not the desperation pass. Dallas literally created the term in the situation

[@VICTOR-py7hn]

Roger said when he threw the football up he said "Hail Mary" so he coined the phrase in football." Google Roger Staubach 1975

[@davanmani556]

The shotgun formation started to follow.

[@alifan3285]

Drew broke my heart in Atlanta. I was in the 7th grade. That Falcon team NEVER recovered.

[@zorro149]

Drew Pearson and Lynn Swann were my two favorite players when I was a kid. They both wore #88, they were both clutch receivers and they were both fun to watch.

[@chriso8193]

It hurts they did not retire Swann's number......

[@zorro149]

@@chriso8193 I felt the same way when I saw a young Michael Irvin wearing Drew Pearson's number. But, he took the baton and ran with it.

What a wild story from Michael about his dad … I’ve never watched a drew highlight and I can see clearly how proud Michael would’ve made his pops

@@pikapika8926 dude these gloves now a day are so sticky. They’re practically magnets. Drew has never been accused or admitted to stick em. You’re thinking of that cheater jerry rice.

About Damn Time he's going to Canton!! Talk about "dropping the ball" on this one NFL 🤬🤬🤬 should've been in years ago along with Martin, Jones, Woodson, Tuinei etcétera

Mario Rodriquez Agreed Mario, shouldn’t have taken so long.

[@petergarcia589]

I'm just glad we get to see him accept this. I kinda felt like he would never get in alive.

I think he will get in this year.

Nice video. Keep up the great work.

[@DC4L99]

Thanks Noela, I will.

[@salsadanceman]

Drew Pearson. A member of the 70s All Decade team. 3 time All Pro. In 1994 was on receiving in of 3 of the top 75 plays in NFL history. 4 if you count clearing block for Dorsett's 99 yard run. How many of those does Andre Reed have? If the great Roger Staubach credits Drew for getting him to the HOF I think that says something. Played in 3 SBs winning 1.

[@DC4L99]

Agreed, such an underrated player. Definitely deserves to be in Canton.

[@raynardabraham7831]

Roger or Danny to Drew always came through.

[@troyc4250]

Need to see more of the Blue jerseys

[@iwillelude9751]

Little before my time but Staubach and Pearson seem to be like 1 and 2

[@petergarcia589]

17 yds a catch. I saw the guy play and I can tell you most of the time he was wide open.

[@stevengriffin5349]

Wr in those days had that deception element ; change speed , head fakes and extreme cuts . How you get open when not running a 4.3 forty 😺

[@FredDrury-r4t]

When I grew up a cowboys fan in the 70s bob lilly was called Mr dallas cowboy. But as a fan drew pearson was Mr dallas cowboy. The td from lonely on thanksgiving day In 74 gave cowboys a winning season. Reason they 20 straight winning seasons. Hail mary from RS in 1st round po in 75 reason we got to SB 10.which meant 5 sbs in a decade. Only team thus far to do that. In 80 1st year starter danny white 2 tds final 3 minutes put us in the championship ship game. And SO MANY sideline catches over the years keeping key drives alive in so many games. He was absolutely inevitable. If the game was 100 to nothing dallas behind. Drew pearson would still believe he could win.

[@noeltaylor3594]

Randy Moss or Terrel Owens? Oh, please. Neither one. If I need a play, one catch over the middle, it's going to 88 from Dallas anyday of the week. I'm sorry. I saw all their careers. Hell, I saw Ron Sellers when he originally wore #88 and made that catch in the '72 playoff game. Drew Pearson is THE most clutch wide receiver to ever play in the league. Mayve Swann and Rice, but Drew is right there on par with them when a catch is needed.

[@juanamj1594]

Great upload as always, DC 4life. Thanks. Could you please make in the near future career highlight videos of Darryl (Moose) Johnston, Larry Allen & pre 1994 car accident Erik Williams?

[@DC4L99]

Thanks 👍, I can do that.

[@N.a.j.i.]

I'M YOUNG, but i promise u, I have dug in the crates & watched old footage of my FAV TEAM and PLAYERS! What u have to do is stop comparing him to 2021 Wr/passing game. YOU CANNOT DO THAT! QBs weren't gettin 300yrd games @all!! DO UNDERSTAND: WHEN DALLAS NEEDED A CATCH/BIG PLAY, HE WAS THAT DUDE! I'm not exaggerating, he caught it when he was open, caught it when he wasn't open!! He was nasty as hell!! In his "era", it was either him or swann so if u are getting your name mentioned as either #1 or #2 @something, u are REALLY GOOD!!

[@DC4L99]

Exactly, it was a different era. People need to judge the numbers by the era they played in. And Pearson’s numbers are absolutely hall of fame worthy.

[@N.a.j.i.]

@@DC4L99 Let those 'stat people' & number crunchers project what his numbers would b and how they corelate to the 2020 game?? I bet they are perennial all-pro numbers? What he did during a non-passing era was sick (and truthfully speakin, his numbers are waaaaaaay better than Swann. Swann just represented really well when the lights were the brightest). I'm 34, I can name most of our players since 1960!! I'm a fan!!

??????? No T-day bomb from Longley??????? Are you kidding??

These catches don’t seem great. They are good, but nothing special. He is a HOF. I’m glad for that, but I’d have to watch games of this guy.

[@DC4L99]

Yeah he didn’t Moss people, or make insane one handed catches 😂. However, he was arguably the best receiver of the 70s. Caught a lot of game winning tds, hopefully he gets in the hof this year.

[@GatCat]

DC 4life from what I’ve heard, he is the only person on the ballot in the senior class.

[@ericmcpherson7058]

Back in the day you either was Drew Pearson or Lynn Swann!!! Swann was known for making acrobatic catches... and Drew Pearson was Known to make all the clutch catches at key moments...

[@geeskin5750]

Not blazing speed, not the biggest guy but was not only but wide open. He was so so clutch

Don't need acrobatics when youre clutch.
