Heretofore in 1981, the Houston Oilers had had topfffteiroffense called a couple of other names— mostly ierb*P ero 8 ator y ones — 215 a n ew coaching staff labored to n orciP ve rsily the attack and get the team over the hump tuna in playoff competition. But they shelved all that work th3p Sunday and gave the football to Earl Campbell. With help from his offensive line, the special 0 hj, teamsand some Cincinnati receivers who could have , cjjj used some stick-um on their fingers, Campbell car- t ei Jriedthe Oilers to a 17-10 win over the Bengals. uchuJ Campbell bruised his way to 182 yards on 37 rs to* 31 ™ 5 ’ anc l he scored a touchdown on a two-yard run. It was by far his busiest day of the season. Carl Roaches ran 96 yards with a Bengals kickoff r another touchdown and Toni Fritsch kicked a leeuPtyard field goal. Other than that, you had to wonder how Houston ^ wn and joined the Bengals and Steelers with 3-2 es j ecords in the American Football Conference Cen- ^ tral Division. !' "Who’s to say,” Bengals Head Coach Forrest ndeii Creggsaid, “they can’t win by giving the hall to Earl nissfi f^opbell 30 times? He’s a heckuva player. ” Wf# Oilers head coach Ed Biles said he hoped he didn’t atios 1* ve t do that but his team’s slim lead Sunday nv( ,, caused him to have Ken Stabler keep the ball on the ground. “I realize you can’t win too many pro games throw ing six passes. But results are what counts,” he said. Quarterback Stabler’s six passes, one completion and minus four yards passing were Oilers’ record lows. “We were successful with it (Campbell) so we stayed with it,” Stabler said. On the other hand, Bengals quarterback Ken Anderson passed for 290 yards by completing 30 passes on 52 attempts. Receiver Steve Kreider drop ped a pass thrown by receiver Cris Collinsworth in the end zone, and Bengals placekicker Jim Breech missed two field goals. On the Oilers offense’s only touchdown drivqjin the second quarter, Campbell carried on eight of nine plays. Earlier, he shouldered the offense on a drive to the Bengals’ 25-yard line, but the drive stalled without a point when running back Wilson got only one yard on first down, Stabler threw incom plete on second down and Stabler was penalized for intentional grounding on third down. The Bengals took a brief lead in the third quarter on Anderson’s 13-yard scoring toss to tight end Dan Ross, but on the ensuing kickoff Roaches sped 96 yards for his second long kickoff return this season. In the Oilers second game he returned a Cleveland Browns kickoff 88 yards. Bengals middle guard Wilson Whitley said the Oilers kick return teams — not Campbell — was the difference in the game. “Earl’s 182 yards didn’t hurt us near as much as the kickoff return and all the punt returns,” he said.
