calls refs
‘human’
United Press International
ST. LOUIS — Cardinal coach Jim
Hanifan Monday came to the de
fense of officials feeling the heat
from St. Louis fans enraged over
two calls in Sunday’s loss to the Dal
las Cowboys, 24-17.
“It’s part of the game,” Hanifan
said of the officiating. “You get into
the human factor here. We all make
mistakes.”
Hanifan said the problem with of
ficiating is the complexity of football
today.
“You’ve got a heck of a lot of
things going on — multiple types of
coverages,” he said. “It’s not like it
used to be. It was a simpler game.
And I think being a simpler game, it
was a little easier to call.”
Both of the controversial calls that
raised the ire of Cardinal fans and
players involved St. Louis wide re
ceiver Roy Green, the NFL’s leading
pass receiver.
’ On the first play, Green appeared
to have hauled in a 39-yard touch
down pass from Neil Lomax that
would have given St. Louis the lead
with 26 seconds left in the third
quarter.
However, field judge Pat Mallette
ruled Green pushed off of Cowboy
cornerback Everson Walls and called
the play back on offensive pass inter
ference.
Walls said Green’s push was
“slight,” adding, “I thought he heat
me for a touchdown.”
The second call was actually a no
call and appeared even more blatant
in replays. The Cardinals were try
ing to comeback in the fourth quar
ter of the 24-17 loss when Lomax
passed to Green. But before the ball
got to Green, Walls popped him
from behind. No penalty was called.
Hanifan, however, dismissed the
officiating as the breaks of the game,
and pointed to a move important
factor for the defeat — six turn
overs.
“You often look at turnovers and
say, well, that’s from sloppy play or
careless play,” he said. “A lot of
times a turnover is because of some
body trying to do something a little
bit more than the ordinary.
“In the final analysis of it, whether
you’re a mature team or a young
team, if you lose the ball four times
in fumbles, you’ve got yourself a
world of crap.”
In fact, Hanifan said it was a trib
ute to the team that it was in position
for a tying touchdown in the final
minutes despite the four fumbles
and two interceptions.
“When it’s all said and done, in my
mind, we should have won that foot
ball game,” said Hanifan. “We damn
near did it anyway with a helluva lot
of adversity, with turnovers, with pe
nalties, with touchdowns called back.
We were still in the cotton-picking
ball game.”
The Cardinals now are 6-5 and
facing what Hanifan called “an
uphill battle” for a playoff berth.
“What we’ve got to do is get out
there in the next five weeks and play
our game,” he said.

Dickerson legend to be
Payton passes torch
United Press Internationa]
LOS ANGELES — The torch
Walter Payton carried as the NEl.'s
premier running back for so many
seasons has been passed. The flame
now goes to Eric Dickerson.
The final step in the exchange of
the NFL’s unofficial “Golden Cleat
Award” was made Sunday, when
Dickerson romped for 149 yards
and a pair of touchdowns in the Los
Angeles Rams’ victory over the Chi
cago Bears. Payton finished with
only 60 yards rushing.
For awhile, the doubters will re
main. Those who have watched Pay-
ton confuse and baf fle NFL defenses
for a decade will he unable to let go.
He is, after all, the all-time leading
rusher, having left the legend of Jim
Brown in his wake earlier this year.
“Eric Dickerson is not the best I’ve
played against,” Chicago line-
little chance all 28 wouldn’t make
Dickerson their first choice.
Although he gained 208 yards a
week ago against St. Louis, Sunday's
performance against the tough Bear
defense may have been Dickerson’s
finest. He took control of the game
in the second half, dancing his way
to a seemingly effortless 99 yards
and both touchdowns with a remark
ably different running style than
Payton’s.
When Payton runs, you look for a
linebacker or safety. When Dicker-
son runs, you glance around for
Ginger Rogers.
This season, Dickerson has
cranked out eight 100-yard games,
piling up 1,309 yards. Payton is sec
ond with 1,172 yards.
“I had great respect for Eric Did
erson in college,” said linebam

backer Mike Singletary said after the
Bears’ loss. “But he’s in the top two.”
Asked who the top runner was,
Singletary replied, “I’m not going to
say. But he’s in the room right now.”
Even the modest Dickerson casts
his vote for Payton.
“To me, he’s the greatest,” Dicker-
son said. “I think he’s the best run
ning back in pro football.”
But if you polled the 28 NFL team
OK. Sometimes the stats don’t
give the whole truth. Maybe Dicker-
