Jets beat Dolphins, 51-45

By 808 GREENE AP Sports Writer The record book and the Miami Dolphins took a beating at the hands of Wesly Walker and the arm of Ken O’Brien. In the highest-scoring overtime game in NFL history, the New York Jets outlasted Miami, 51-45, Sunday. Miami’s Dan Marino, who needed to throw eight passes to qualify as the league’s top career percentage passer, hit 30 of 50 passes for 448 yards and six touchdowns. O’Brien responded with 29 of 43 for 479 yards and four TDs all to the speedy Walker. Between them, the two teams had a record 884 net passing yards, surpassing the former mark of 883 yards set by San Diego (Dan Fouts) and Cincinnati (Ken Anderson) in 1982. But it was O’Brien-to-Walker who combined to send the sellout crowd of 71,025 into a frenzy not once, but twice. “I was down on myself because I fumbled the ball. I thought I lost the game for the team,’’ said Walker, whose bobble led to Miami’s goahead touchdown at 45-38 late in the fourth quarter. “I was just grateful I was given the opportunity to make it up.” That came on a 21-yard pass from O’Brien to knot the score at 45-45 with no time showing on the clock. “When I came down (with the ball), I knew I had to lean,” Walker said. “I couldn’t believe I wasn’t hit immediately. When I realized I was

in the end zone, it was instant shock. I didn’t even realize there was no time left on the clock.” And that set up the game-winner, a 43-yard bomb launched by O’Brien as Walker sailed past free safety Bud Brown down the right sideline. In other NFL games Sunday, it was Atlanta 37, Dallas 35; Denver 33, Philadelphia 7; the Los Angeles Rams 24, Indianapolis 7; Tampa Bay 24, Detroit 20; Minnesota 31, Pittsburgh 7; Buffalo 17, St. Louis 10; Seattle 38, New England 31; Kansas City 27, Houston 13; San Francisco 26, New Orleans 17; the New York Giants 14, the Los Angeles Raiders 9; and Washington 30, San Diego 27. On Thursday, Cincinati defeated Cleveland 30-13. The long NFL weekend concludes tonight when Chicago travels to Green Bay. Falcons 37, Cowboys 35 Atlanta and Dallas put on their own version of a “shootout,” although they did it in regulation time and the home team came up on the short end of the score. Rookie Floyd Dixon was on the receiving end of a 65-yard pass from Dave Archer that set up Mick Luckhurst’s winning 18-yard field goal with 20 seconds remaining in the contest. “I didn’t look up and just kept running and hoping Dave could throw it that far,” Dixon said after his reception took the ball to the Dallas 2. Then the Cowboys, 2-1, answered with a Danny White-to-Tony Hill pass that began on the Dallas 31 with only 10 seconds left. Hill caught White’s pass on the Atlanta 35 and headed downfield, but time expired by the time he ran out of bounds at the Falcons’9. Dallas’ Tony Dorset! became the sixth player in NFL history to rush for more than 11,000 yards. Giants 14, Raiders 9 Two touchdown passes from quarterback Phil Simms to wide receiver Lionel Manuel led the New York over the winless Raiders. The Raiders, 0-3 and off to their worst start in 22 years, were held without a touchdown for the second consecutive game. Los Angeles running back Marcus Allen had his NFL record streak of rushing for 100 or more yards end at II consecutive games as he gained only 40 yards on 15 carries, suffering a sprained right ankle in the third period. Joe Morris became the first running back to gain 100 yards on the Raiders defense in 16 games. Redskins 30, Chargers 27 A 14-yard TD pass from Jay Schroeder to Gary Clark with 1:16 left lifted Washington over San Diego.

Bears, Packers to renew oldest rivalry in football

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) The oldest rivalry in professional football usually is enough to motivate the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers. « But memories of last year’s games are adding spice to tonight’s NFL matchup the 132nd meeting between the two NFC Central Division teams. The Bears, 2-0 this season, recall what they term cheap shots administered by the Packers in the second game last season. “It’s not going to be like last year,” Bears Coach Mike Ditka said. “We’re not going to be the hittees. We’re going to be the hitters. That’s fact.” The 0-2 Packers, struggling in a rebuilding year, are mindful that one year ago on a Monday night in Chicago they helped make a national celebrity out of an overweight defensive lineman playing the backfield. William “The Refrigerator” Perry ran for a touchdown and twice bulldozed linebacker George Cumby, paving the way for Walter Payton touchdowns. Cumby now is with the Buffalo Bills, one of the many veterans cut by Packers Coach Forrest Gregg in the off-season. But the Packers haven’t forgotten. “We were embarrassed for a defensive lineman to get all that publicity,” defensive lineman Donnie Humphrey said. “It was national TV; Monday night; Coach Ditka had his chance to embarrass us and he did it.” “But I’m happy for (Perry).”

The Redskins. 3-0, sealed the victory when San Diego quarterback Dan Fouts was intercepted a third time. Seahawks 38, Patriots 31 Dave Krieg’s 67-yard touchdown bomb to Ray Butler with 1:14 left in the game capped Seattle’s 17-point run in the final three minutes and boosted the unbeaten Seahawks over New England, 2-1. Patriots quarterback Tony Eason threw for 422 yards, including three long touchdown passes to Stanley Morgan. Bucs 24, Lions 20 Rookie free agent Nathan Wonsley had touchdown runs of 22 and 55 yards to lead Tampa Bay over Detroit before the smallest crowd ever to see an NFL game in the Silverdome. The victory was the Bucs’ first of the season and first on the road since beating Minnesota on Nov. 6, 1983, snapping a 19-game streak. The crowd of 38,453 was the smallest for a NFL game since the Silverdome opened in 1975. There were 6,069 announced no-shows. Bills 17, Cardinals 10 Greg Bell rushed for 79 yards and one touchdown and quarterback Jim Kelly set up Buffalo’s first score when he completed a 51-yard pass play as the Bills downed winless St. Louis. It was the Bills’ first victory of the year and only their fifth in their last 37 games. 49ers 26, Saints 17 Quarterback Jeff Kemp completed 29 of 44 passes for 332 yards and a touchdown to lead the 49ers over New Orleans. Mel Gray scored for the Saints on a 101-yard kickoff return. Broncos 33, Eagles 7 Running backs Sammy Winder rushed for 104 yards, scored two touchdowns and set up a field goal and Gerald Willhite added 91 yards rushing to lead Denver, 3-0, over winless Philadelphia. The Broncos so dominated Coach Buddy Ryan’s Eagles that he sent in backup quarterback Gary Kubiak with 9:03 left in the third period for some game experience. Vikings 31, Steelers 7 Rookie receiver Hassan Jones caught six passes for 140 yards and two touchdowns as Minnesota defeated Pittsburgh. The Steelers, who have scored only 17 points this season, fell to 0-3 their worst start since 1970. Chiefs 27, Oilers 13 Greg Hill intercepted a Warren Moon pass and returned it 26 yards for a touchdown as Kansas City defeated Houston, 1-2. Moon, who had not been sacked in Houston’s two previous games, was sacked seven times by the swarming Chiefs’ defense.

Humphrey added. “In so many ways, he put fun back into the game of football.” Green Bay wide receiver James Lofton, in his ninth professional football season, agrees. “It was a strange twist on fate that it happened on a Monday night,” Lofton said. “It made Perry the biggest celebrity in the game since I’ve been playing.” In the second Bears-Packers game last season, Perry caught a touchdown pass, insuring his off-season would be a lucrative one. But The Fridge isn’t hyping his return to Monday night prime time. “It was a starting point for me,” he said of last year’s game, characterizing life before his offensive debut as “quiet.” Will he do anything special in this game? “Just play,” he said with a grin. The defending champion Bears won both of their games with the Packers last season. Kickoff tonight was scheduled for 9 p.m. EDT. The Bears basically return their Super Bowl team, although quarterback Jim McMahon was sidelinded with a separated shoulder. The Packers have lost to Houston and New Orleans, and the Green Bay offense is struggling under the quarterbacking of inexperienced thirdyear pro Randy Wright. But the Bears declare they won’t take anyone lightly. “Because the Chicago Bears are world champions, everybody’s going to try to knock us off,” Payton said. “We’re hungry enough.”
