Vikes, 34-14
Safety John Turner inter
cepted Nielsen in the second
quarter and returned the ball 14
yards to the Minnesota 32. The
Vikings reached the Houston 6,
aided by a 23-yard pass from
Dils to to Tony Galbreath and a
30-yard scamper by Darrin
Nelson.
But a sack pushed the Vikings
back and they had to settle for a
28-yard field goal by Ricardo,
his 15th straight this year.
Dils engineered a quick four-
play, 64-yard drive to dose the
first quarter. A 29-yard pass to
Nelson put the Vikings on the
Houston 23 and on the next
play, Dils hit tight end Jordan
for the touchdown to open a 17-
7 lead. The 17 points were the
most ever scored by a Vikings
team in the first quarter.
Campbell rushed for 43 yards
in a 68-yard Houston scoring
drive that included his longest
single carry of the season, a 29-
yard spurt on 3rd-and-l. Camp
bell,who finished with 130
yards, reached the end zone on a
13-yard run with 3:39 left in the
first quarter.
Nielsen fired a 35-yard touch
down pass to rookie tight end
Chris Dressel on the Oilers’ first
drive in the third quarter, cap
ping a 72-yard march to trim the
Vikings’ lead to 20-14.
But the Vikings again capital
ized on a turnover later in the
E eriod. Walker Lee Ashley
locked a punt by Houston’s
John James and Dennis Fowlkes
recovered the loose ball at the
Minnesota 46. The Vikings
reached the Houston 9 but a 7-
yard sack by Avon Riley backed
Minnesota to the 16 to end the
quarter.
Dils then rushed 8 yards on
third and 16 but an unnecessary
roughness penalty against Oil
ers rookie Darryl Meadows
moved the ball to the 4-yard line.
Brown then plowed into the end
zone on his first carry of the
game, opening a 27-14 lead with
15 seconds elapsed in the final
period.
Brown capped a 67-yard
drive with his second TD of the
game with 1:09 left.
The running back did not
start for the second straight
week because of injuries. Nelson
carried most of the workload,
catching four passes for 57 yards
and rushing 13 times for 74
yards.
Rookie Joey Browner
appeared to have scored a
touchdown on an interception
with 36 seconds left in the game
but the play was called back be
cause an official had whistled
defensive pass interference
against Viking Carl Lee.
United Press International
The absence of Orange Bowl
mud, post-season pressure and
A.J. Duhe couldn’t prevent
Richard Todd from suffering a
recurring nightmare against the
Miami Dolphins Sunday.
Miami’s defense grabbed five
of a club record-tying six inter
ceptions off the New York Jets’
quarterback, returned one for a
touchdown and got three TD
passes from rookie Dan Marino
to crush the Jets 32-14.
The Dolphins’ defense re
minded Todd of the Jets’ 14-0
loss at Miami in the AFC cham
pionship game last season.
Todd, who also threw five inter
ceptions in the title game, was
benched in the third period
Sunday.
Marino gave Miami a 7-0 lead
on the Dolphins’ fourth offen
sive play, hooking up with
Moore on a 66-yard scoring
play. After the Jets tied the score
on Todd’s 2-yard pass to Mickey
Shuler, Miami scored 23 straight
points.
The Dolphins scored 13
points in the final three minutes
of the first half on Kim Bokam-
per’s 24-yard interception re
turn off a Doug Betters deflec
tion and Marino’s 24-yard TD
K ass to Rose for a 20-7 halftime
:ad.
Duhe returned a Todd pass
35 yards for a score in the title
game, but left Sunday’s game
with a groin injury in the first
quarter.
Marino, the Dolphins’ first
round draft pick from Pitt
sburgh, was elevated to a start
ing berth last week. He added a
TD pass of 5 yards to Dan John
son in the third period to push
Miami to 4-3 and drop the Jets to
3-4.
He completed 17-of-30 passes
for 225 yards and no intercep
tions while Todd managed to hit
only 9-of-26 for 114 yards be
fore being yanked.
In other games, Pittsburgh
blasted Cleveland 44-17, Buffa
lo belted Baltimore 30-7, New
England upset San Diego 37-21,
Denver beat Cincinnati 24-17,
Seattle topped the Los Angeles

Monday night.
STEELERS 44, BROWNS 17
— Cliff Stoudt awoke Pitt
sburgh’s slumbering offense by
passing for 194 yards and one
touchdown and the Steelers’ de
fense parlayed five of six Brian
Sipe interceptions into points.
The win left the Steelers in sole
possession of first place in the
AFC Central with a 5-2 record.
BILLS 30, COLTS 7 — Joe
Ferguson completed 21-of-30
passes for 230 yards and three
TDs to lead Buffalo, upping the
Bills’ record to 5-2 and giving
them sole possession of first
place in the AFC East.

yards with a fumble recovery to
