Cowboys will be ready for Aaron Rodgers' Hail Mary if it comes up

FRISCO, Texas – Every week the Dallas Cowboys go over their Hail Mary defense, just in case it comes up.

Facing the Green Bay Packers in the divisional round of the playoffs Sunday, the Cowboys are well aware of Aaron Rodgers' success with a play Roger Staubach made famous in the divisional round of the 1975 playoffs against the Minnesota Vikings with a Hail Mary to Drew Pearson.

Three times in the last 13 months Rodgers has successfully completed a Hail Mary, first in the regular season in 2015 against the Detroit Lions, the in the playoffs last year against the Arizona Cardinals.
