Oiler replacements win 2nd in a row A*
CLEVELAND (AP) — Herman
Hunter rushed for 121 yards on 28
carries in 2 l A> quarters Sunday
against a Cleveland defensive line
that included a 12-year NFL veteran
and a former No. 1 draft pick, and
the Houston Oilers beat the Browns
15-10.
The victory in the strike replace
ment game was the second straight
on the road for Houston, whose reg
ular team hadn’t won two consec
utive road games since 1981.
The Oilers, at 3-1 off to their best
start since 1979, took a 7-3 halftime
lead when Brent Pease threw a 15-
yard scoring pass to closely guarded
Keith McDonald.
Houston dominated the line of
scrimmage in the half, holding the
ball .for more than 20 minutes, al
though Cleveland had 12-year vet
eran Carl Hairston and former first-
round Pittsburgh draft pick Darryl
Sims on its defensive line.
Hunter, a former Philadelphia
and Detroit running back who re
placed the injured Andrew Jackson
in the second quarter, helped the
Oilers continue their domination of
the ball in the third period, but
Houston managed only two field
goals by John Diettrich in the period
to go up 13-3.
In the fourth quarter, the Browns,
2-2, abandoned a frustrated running
Jesse Baker on the Browns’ next pos
session tor a safety. Former A&M
safety Domingo Bryant then inter
cepted Christensen for the second
time with 1:04 to go to seal it.
Cleveland had won its last six
games against the Oilers.

Christensen, however, was tackled

The Browns’ striking players did
not picket the game, choosing in
stead to hold a free clinic across town
at John Carroll University.
A crowd of 38,927 attended the
game, representing more than half
of the 73,000 who had originally
bought tickets. A handful of fans
carried pickets outside Cleveland
Stadium, hearing such slogans as
“Fans On Strike Against Owners and
Players.”
Striking NBC workers also pick
eted outside.

Denver a week earlier behind 102

Cowboys overpower Eagles for 41-22 win
od 2-0
Never a duff moment.
IRVING (AP) — Kelvin Edwards
ran a reverse 62 yards for a touch
down on Dallas’ first play Sunday
and the replacement Cowboys rolled
to a 41-22 National Fooball League
victory over the outmanned Phila
delphia Eagles before 40,622 fans
who booed two of their heroes.
The Cowboys, 22-point favorites,
got a standing ovation in pregame
introductions as a group but the fans
turned nasty when veterans Tony
Dorsett and Danny White, who
crossed the picket line two weeks ago
but did not play last week, entered
the game in the second half with
Dallas leading 27-10.
Dorsett, who said before the game
he didn’t want any of his statistics to
count, was booed after a 10-yard
touchdown run in the third quarter.
White heard derisive cheers when he
was sacked.
Both teams entered Texas Sta
dium with police escorts before 8:30
The announced crowd was the
largest so far in the two weekends of
NFL replacement games.
a.m., U/2 hours before picket lines
formed.
Dallas player representative Doug
Cosbie said, “This is not pro football.
Anybody who went to the Okla-
homa-Texas game knows Oklahoma
could beat either one of these teams.
I’d rather see the fans give S25 to
charity and get a tax write-off.”
The striking Cowboys then went
on a picnic.
Dallas is 3-1 after its home opener
which was delayed when the third
regular season game was cancelled
by the strike. The Eagles are 1-3.
The Cowboys scored three touch
downs in the first period on Ed
wards’ run, Alvin Blount’s eight-
yard scoring run, and Kevin Swee
ney’s 77-yard touchdown pass to
Cornell Burbage.
Luis Zendejas kicked field goals of
44 and 50 yards for Dallas and
Blount also scored on a one-yard
run.
The Eagles’ Scott Tinsley threw
scoring passes of 62 yards to Kevin
Bowman, and 13 yams each to Mike
Siano and Topper Clemons.
After Edwards’ touchdown, the
Cow'boys struck two minutes later
for another score after Bruce Liv-
ington blocked Dave Edwards’ punt
and the ball rolled out of bounas on
the Philadelphia 13. Blount scored
from eight yards out.

DALE
From the Associated Press
The unusual became the usual be
cause of the strange circumstances in
the National Football League.
The second week of replacement
football saw the Indianapolis Colts
and Miami Dolphins, two of the wea
kest defensive teams in ordinary
games, post shutouts. It saw Hous
ton, which rarely wins on the road,
get its second straight victory as a vis
itor.
It saw Tony Dorsett and Danny
White, longtime Texas heroes,
booed by 40,622, the largest crowd
for any replacement game so far.
The lowest attendance was 9,123
at Giants Stadium; there were two
lower in the first week.
Negotiations disintegrated Sun
day, but replacement players weren’t
concerning themselves with what the
striking regulars were doing or
when they might be back. The fill-
ins were too busy, uh, filling in.
COLTS 6, JETS 0
The Colts got their first shutout
since moving from Baltimore, where
they last turned the trick in 1976
against the Jets. Steve Jordan kicked
field goals of 35 and 25 yards and
rookie Bryant Jones made two of the
three Colts pass interceptions.
DOLPHINS 42, CHIEFS 0
The 25,867 fans who attended the
regular-season debut in 74,993-seat
Joe Robbie Stadium enjoyed the ef
forts of the fill-ins. They also chan
ted “Stay on strike, stay on strike,” to
the regulars picketing outside.
Dolphins owner Joe Robbie was
all smiles as the rain-drenched fans
turned to his private box and
cheered when the score reached 35-
0.
“It’s ironic that after spending
more than $100 million to build a
new stadium, I would have to cross a
picket line manned by my own play
ers to see the game,” Robbie said.
Safety Liffort Hobley, the one
union member to cross the picket
line, returned a fumble 55 yards for
a touchdown. Robert Parker did the
same thing for 59 yards.
BEARS 27, VIKINGS 17
Coach Mike Ditka is used to over
powering defense from his Bears.
But 20 sacks in two weeks?
“That will get you in the Guinness
Book of Records, somewhere,” Ditka
said.
Originally, 66,030 tickets were
sold for the game, leaving more than
33,000 tickets turned back or
unused.
LIONS 19, PACKERS 16
Detroit got its first victory of the
season when Mike Prindle kicked a
31-yard field goal with 2:34 left in
overtime before 35,779. It was the
fourth field goal for Prindle, who
had missed a 42-yarder with 10 min
utes to go in overtime.
Green Bay’s Max Zendejas kicked
a 45-yard field goal as time expired
to tie the game 16-16.

The rain in Tampa didn’t stop
23,873 from attending and being
disappointed as quarterback Rick
Neuheisel came off the bench and
directed three second-half scoring
drives for San Diego.
CARDINALS 24, SAINTS 19
With 30 players who crossed
picket lines on the field at St. Louis,
the Cardinals overcame a 368-143
total yardage deficit. Veteran Leon
ard Smith and replacement player
Mark Jackson returned fumbles by
Mark Ingram for touchdowns.
Saints replacement running back
Dwight Beverly rushed for 139
yards on 35 carries, including touch
down runs of three and five yards.
RAMS 31, STEELERS 21
A crowd of 20,218 saw the Rams
win their first game. Charles White,
who has battled cocaine dependency
problems during his seven NFL sea
sons and was charged earlier this
year with being under the influence
of a controlled substance, rushed for
166 yards and scored one touch
down. It was the best NFL outing
ever for the 1979 Heisman Trophy
winner.
