A glance at the NFL
bring the Rams. Coach John Robin
son and Ron M yer (New England)
are two o f the better new coaches in
the N F L . The Rams must win to re
main tied with 49ers in N F L West.
New England (7-7) is a game behind
Buffalo in tough A F L East. Both
will be the edge for Washington.

8, on the season is stronger on the
ground because of all-pro running
back W alter Payton. D il has the
best receivers led by ex-Stanford
great Darrin Nelson. Minnesota
rates a one-point edge only because
they're playing at home. A loss by
Minnesota will result in the first d i
vision title for the Detroit Lions in

this season Remember that Balti

earlier this season and only lost 17-
10 after Steve Debery rescued the
Stanford Flash in the fourth quar
ter. This will not be a repeat per
formance. Young John has learned
a lot since that earlier meeting. He's
now better able to read defenses;
he's picking his keys better, and
showing the poise of a veteran. E l

Bears put 28 points on the score-
board in a losing course agains

able to score only two against De

Cleveland at Houaton
This is a must win for the Browns,
and almost a sure win against the
hapless Oilers. The Browns are tra il
ing the fast-fading Steelers by only
one game. Cleveland at 8-6 should
easily shutdown the 1-13 Oilers.
Earl Cam pbell, O iler running back,
is coming o ff a brilliant 134-yd. per
formance against the M iam i D o l
phins last week. Campbell kept
Houston in the game before finally
falling 24-17. This kind o f repeat
performance could mean trouble for
the Browns. Even on the road
Ckveland should win by 10.
San Francisco at Buffalo
This game is a biggie for the
49ers. Both teams are coming in
with identical records— 8-6— and
both stand second in their divisional
standings. There’s a great deal of
similarity here.
Buffalo has the best defensive
unit, while the 49ers offense rates
superior. However, a look a the
stats would show that Buffalo has
allowed their opponents a total of
297 points, while the Niners have al
lowed just 266. A fbrther look will
reveal that the Bills have gone up
against the better offensive teams.
Joe M ontana is on a roll and when
Joe is hot the 49ers are a dard good
football team. No key injuries. Take
the Forty Niners by a field goal.

Seattle. 7-7, still has playoff
hopes. The Giants at 3-10 can only
wait until next year. New York's
solid defense is constantly under
pressure by woefully inept offense.
Scott Brunner is not the QB o f the
future. His performance to date has
been too erratic. As a result the
good defense has had 299 points
scored against them this season,
which isn't bad considering As a
comparison, the l.A Raiders, who
have climbed the A F C west, has a l
lowed opponents 290 points while
compiling an 11-3 record. A record
that stands third overall behind the
12-2 Redskins and Dallas Cowboys.
Seattle,
while
making
good
progress, must still find a quarter
back. Dave Krieg, who took over
for the veteran Jim Zorn, is not the
answer. Look for Coach Chuck
Knox to clean house. I t ’s a well-
