IRVING (AP) — The winless Dal
las Cowboys at last could take conso
lation in something on Monday.
They had finally beaten the point
spread.
By losing 36-28 to the Kansas City
Chiefs Sunday, the Cowboys
snapped a six-week spell of falling
harder than the oddsmakers pre
dicted.
The Cowboys’ special teams were
the bright spot in the loss to the
Chiefs as James Dixon ran a kickoff
back 97 yards, first for Dallas since
1977.
Also, Paul Palmer, making his de
but, ran 63 yards fpr a touchdown. It
was Dallas’ longest run since Hers-
chel Walker went 84 yards against
Philadelphia in 1986.
“Out of the 47 players, 24 of them
are new, so we expect some mis
takes,” Johnson said. “But we
shouldn’t be making as many as we
are.
“Palmer had a fumble but I think
he showed he could help us. Dixon
and Shepard also showed why we
like them.”
Although Dallas remained the
only team in the NFL without a vic
tory, Kansas City coach Marty Schot-
tenheimer said the Cowboys could
become a dangerous team.
“I didn’t sense on the sidelines
that Dallas was playing poorly,” he
thh
Vol
said. “They did some things well.
They’ll get better.
“But the only thing that matter!
this business is winning.
Johnson, who won 52 gams
the University of Miami indudii
national championship before n|
left for professional football, sjj
“We knew this was to be a longlu
But it’s frustrating.”
The Cowboys play host to
Phoenix Cardinals on Sunday
noon to close out the first hall
their season.
They are only three losses a.?
from the worst start of any teair :
franchise history.
Rookie quarterback Steve Wi
hit 14 of 29 passes for 116 yards
one touchdown but only had
yards passing after three quanj
against the tough Kansas City i
fense.
Dallas may have its other rocti
? [uarterback, Troy Aikman, availiij |r0£
or limited duty on Sunday.
Aikman had the pins taken ouiil
his broken index Finger on hisitt
passing hand.
The Cowboys said it was doukli _
Aikman woula play althoughhe»i ^uj
work all week and be available. [ or ,
Aikman’s injury was in suchai[« 1C 1
that it made him difficult to taleit
snap from center.
Phoenix was an early two ando^et
half point favorite over the C»
boys.
Tagliabue tabbed as
favorite for NFL post
CLEVELAND (AP) — The four-
month deadlock that has kept Pete
Rozelle hostage while the owners
bicker over a new commissioner,
may finally be broken this week by
Paul Tagliabue, an NFL insider who
has been chosen as the candidate of
the outsiders.
While there are no guarantees
that the worst impasse among the
owners since it took 23 ballots to
elect Rozelle nearly 30 years ago can
be ended this week, signs are in
creasing that enough owners are
willing to compromise to provide
Tagliabue with the 19 votes he needs
to become commissioner.
If that happens, it would allow
Rozelle, who announced his retire
ment 217 days ago at the winter
meetings in Palm Desert, Calif., to
move from the New York hotel
where he has been staying since the
season began and join his wife Car
rie in Rancho Santa Fe., Calif., near
San Diego.
“I think the time is ripe now to do
something,” said Mike Lynn of the
Minnesota Vikings, one of the lead
ers of the so-called “New Guard” re
volt that denied Jim Finks, the presi
dent of the New Orleans Saints, the
votes he needed July 6, when he was
expected to be elected.
The last time the owners met, two
weeks ago at Grapevine, Texas,
Finks and Tagliabue each got 13
votes with two abstentions.
So far, there have been six ballots
in 28 hours of meetings, with Finks’
16 on the first ballot, the high-water
mark for any candidate.
They belonged to Dan Rooney of
Pittsburgh and A1 Davis of the Los
Angeles Raiders. Each was originally
a Finks supporter and each was on
one of the selection committees —

Snake bite doesn’t
slow Oilers’ Glanvi
HOUSTON (AP) — Houston
coach Jerry Glanville survived a
snake bite on Saturday, Pittsburgh
on Sunday and Monday was ready to
tackle new odds.
The Oilers haven’t lost two games
in a row since the 1987 season but
they haven’t won three games in a
row since 1985.
Playing in the AFC Central- Divi
sion isn’t conducive to long winning
streaks but the Oilers will try for
three in a row Sunday at Cleveland.
“The Houston Oilers are the only
team in the NFL that hasn’t lost two
games in a row since 1987,” Glanville
said. “We’re kind of proud of that.”
The Oilers beat Chicago 33-28
two weeks ago and registered their
first shutout since 1980 with a 27-0
victory over Pittsburgh on Sunday.
The Steelers were flat after an
emotional victory over Cleveland a
week earlier. Glanville saw Pitts
burgh’s performance as another ex
ample of life in the AFC Central.
“I think Pittsburgh felt the Cleve
land game,” Glanville said. “When
you play a couple of AFCs in a row
they take a toll.
“Now we’ve got to go take on an
other AFC Central on the road so
we’ve got to muster up and get as
good as we can.”
The Oilers were almost flawless
against the Steelers. The defense al
lowed 132 total yards and Warren
Moon threw three first half touch
down passes to put the Steelers a‘i
early.
“I can’t remember ever seeiri
yardage situation like that ai n
level I’ve coached,” Glanville stf
“They really did such a good job
Glanville and Steelers cci
Chuck Noll continued their polio
not shaking hands at midfield a •
the game.
The coaches have feuded s"
1987 when Noll accused theO- :
of using dirty tactics.
Glanville was complimeniar
the Steelers effort, however.
“When you play Pittsburj -
don’t like to give them a lotofcrt
but their players, defensively
never quit trying to play hi
Glanville said. “Somebody up ^
is doing a good job. It must be l
Joe Greene (Steelers assii ::
coach).”
Glanville said his snake biie
dent was a close call.
“You’ve got to be the luckier
alive when you get bit by a 0
that’s just finished eating,” Glat'
said.
