El Super Bowl LV is cada vez ms nearby, so it’s time to talk about one of the most spectacular countries in football, the famous Ave Mara.
This pass called Hail Mary or Ave Mara, some believe it originated in 1922, in college football, at the Notre Dame Catholic School; However, if one thing is certain, it is that on December 28, 1975 this play rose to fame, since that day the Vikings and the Cowboys, disputed the title of the National Conference.
In that match the Cowboys were down on the scoreboard, With just a few seconds left on the clock, QB Roger Staubach threw a 50-yard pass, which was caught by Drew Pearson, and with this miracle they managed to win the match. The QB stated that when he threw the ball, “I closed my eyes and recited a Hail Mary.” For this reason, it is that this play was baptized with this name.
In short, what the pass consists of, is to throw the ball as close to the end zone and wait for a teammate to catch it.
This play is spectacular, since it is practically the last hope of a team, to try to draw or win a game. In addition to the fact that the QB ends up throwing the ball a long distance from the end zone, so the chances of missing are enormous.
The answer is Aaron Rodgers, and he did it in a matchup between his team, the Green Bay Packers and the Detroit Lions, where he threw a 61-yard touchdown pass. The date it did so was December 3, 2015.
