1 Cowboys rally past Chargers for win
|VSAN DIEGO (AP) — Quarterback
Steve Pelluer, after being sacked an
NFL record-tying 12 times, scored
on a 2-yard bootleg run with 1:37 to
"play Sunday as the Dallas Cowboys
rallied from an 11-point deficit to
post a 24-21 victory over the San
Diego Chargers.
Bl'he Cowboys, who trailed 21-10
early in the fourth quarter, drove
from their 39-yard line to the Charg
ers! two before Pelluer rolled around
[right end for the deciding score.
^The Chargers had taken the lead
behind quarterback Dan Fouls’ two
touchdown passes to Kellen
Winslow.
After Pelluer’s deciding touch
down, a fumble by Tony Dorsett that
was recovered by the Chargers on
the San Diego 10 with 42 seconds to
play gave the Chargers a final
chance.
San Diego drove to the Dallas 37,
but after three incompletions, a 55-
yard field goal try by Rolf Be-
nirschke with one second remaining
missed wide to the left.
The Cowboys had pulled within
21-17 on a one-yard run by Herschel
Walker with 7:26 to play. That score
came three plays after Dallas de
fensive back Michael Downs had
blocked a punt, giving the Cowboys
the ball on the San Diego two.
Dallas improved its record to 7-4
and remained two games behind the
NFC East-leading New York Giants,
who beat Minnesota earlier Sunday.
The Washington Redskins, 8-2, play
San Francisco tonight.
The Chargers’ defense stifled Dal
las most of the game with a swarm
ing pass rush. Rookie defensive end
Leslie O’Neal led the Chargers with
five sacks.
Fouts’ second scoring pass to
Winslow had given San Diego a 21-
10 advantage. The score came three
plays after a 42-yard pass interfer
ence call against Downs set the
Chargers up with a first and goal at
the Cowboys’ six.
San Diego grabbed the lead for
the first time midway through the
third period. Winslow ran 28 yards
for a touchdown after catching a
screen pass behind the line of scrim
mage.
Winslow’s reception put San
Diego in front, 14-10.

The Oilers, losing for the ninth
time in their last 10 games, were tra
iling 21-10 when Warren Moon
completions of 23 yards and 14
yards to Ernest Givins and a 26-yard
pass interference call against Steel
ers’ safety Donnie Shell gave Hous
ton a first down at the Pittsburgh
one.
But the Oilers were stopped for
no gain on four successive plays
from the one — with fullback Ray
Wallace carrying three times and
Moon once — as the Steelers, 4-7,
held on to win for the third time in
their last four games.
Houston, 2-9, also had an appar
ent eight-yard Wallace touchdown
run and a 63-yard Moon to Allen
Pinkett touchdown pass called back
by penalties. A penalty also negated
a 29-yard field goal by Tony Zende-
jas, who then missed from 39 yards
out after the illegal use of hands call
on tight end Jamie Williams.
Pittsburgh, beating Houston for
the eighth time in their last nine
meetings, took a 7-0 lead when
Abercrombie scored from eight
yards out with 3:18 gone in the game
after cornerback Harvey Clayton in
tercepted a Moon pass.
Moon’s 33-yard touchdown pass
to Givins made it 7-7 midway
through the period before a 35-yard
interference call on Oilers’ cor
nerback Steve Brown gave Pitts
burgh a first down at the Oilers’
four. Jackson scored from the three
a play later.
The Steelers made it 21-7 when
Mark Malone hit Rich Erenberg on a
17-yard scoring pass with 12:04 re
maining in the second quarter.
Zendejas kicked a 44-yarder late
in the second period to make it 21-
10.

kept pushing back the Aggies with
its ground game on its way to its sec-
ond touchdown.
irpn But the A&M defense held when
Kieeded to. Arkansas Coach Ken
Hatfield gambled on a fourth-and-1
play late with four minutes left.
A& M’s Rod Saddler and Todd How-
yffard stopped fullback Derrick
'''Thomas just inches short of the first
B»Wn to give the ball back to A&M
for its final drive.
wotjpOverall, the A&M defense played
Pg^well. It held the Razorbacks to 186
R|ds rushing, less than the 234.8
'T&yards per game Arkansas was aver-
|0It was A&M’s conservative
and inconsistent play on offense that
hindered the team, however, and
ended the Aggies’ seven-game win
ning streak.
Woodside said he still foresees an
A&M trip to Dallas on Jan. 1
“We are a class team,” Woodside
said. “We know what our task is and
we’re going to make a comeback. . . .
We can control our own destiny, no
matter if it’s TCU or Texas, we’re
still the team to beat for the Cotton
Bowl.”
While A&M still has the inside
track on the Cotton Bowl with two
games remaining, another Aggie
loss could send Arkansas to the
Bowl if the Hogs can beat SMU this
Saturday. If A&M and Arkansas are
both winners this weekend, then the
annual A&M-Texas Thanksgiving
grudge match again may determine
the SWC champion. CBS reported
Sunday that the loser of this Satur
day’s Michigan-Ohio State game will
head to the Cotton Bowl.
