cincinnati four touchdown passes for kenny anderson 45-24 chicago beats washington 33-7 you all come to the super bowl chicago and new england this year and philadelphia beats atlanta by a score of 14-13 charlie smith with 4 21 caught the winning touchdown pass from mike barilla as you can imagine the world of boxing was thrown into a turmoil this week with that announcement by muhammad ali in istanbul turkey that he had retired particularly in the heavyweight division so we have invited the two most successful fight promoters in the world into our studios today on my right hand side bob aaron and over here on my left is don king and don the first question everyone wants answered is whether or not ali is sincere is he finished as a fighter well first you must understand muhammad ali i think muhammad ali is a unique and extraordinary type of individual and every time that he says something he really means what he says you know so it's not like he's unstable or that his credibility is he's a kind of artist that performs for the people he's a people's like champion and at the time that he said that i'm certain that he really meant that he's going to retire bob do you agree with that do you think that muhammad ali meant it when he said it well i sure agree with that statement now but the ultimate question is will muhammad ali retire and nobody really knows he's been the greatest champion in the history of boxing a lot of people hope that he doesn't retire if he wants to retire obviously it's his decision he's given the sport everything he has but i'm inclined to believe that ultimately muhammad ali will not retire all right well let's say for a moment theoretically that he has retired let me show you footage from what would be his last fight now we're going to pick it up in the 15th round cbs covered this fight you'll be able to see it in its entirety the night of october 22nd keep one thing in mind this is late in the 15th round muhammad ali appeared to have taken charge early in the 15th but as we came down the stretch then ken norton became the aggressor you can see the time left in the round we come inside of 30 seconds in my opinion and i think everyone else this was the strongest part of the 15th round for one kenny norton and don and bob i know you were both at ringside so you noticed the same thing that i did that as soon as the fight ended ken norton was absolutely certain that he had taken the crown away from muhammad ali now focus in on kenny norton what he does first of all he is going to insult muhammad ali at the conclusion of this round then watch and see what he does following that he'll go over to his corner jump into the arms of his handler there is you see he thought that he had won the fight no question about it now i've got to tell you that both don and bob have told me that they agree with the decision they thought muhammad ali wanted don let me propose this if muhammad ali has retired ken norton and george foreman would fight for the heavyweight championship that seems like the way it would be but that is not the way i would propose it to be i have declared george foreman heavyweight champion of the world now this is not by not an arbitrary or ego trip this is something that is substantiated by effect george foreman knocked out ken norton in two rounds in caracas venezuela he knocked out joe frazier twice he has proven beyond a doubt that he's the most forbiddable formidable and awesome guy out there so i feel that he should fight ken norton but it should be george foreman champion ken norton challenger bob would you agree with that should we just give the heavyweight title to george foreman you don't give the heavyweight title to anybody whether kenny norton or muhammad ali won that fight in the opinion of people everybody in the nation will see on october 22nd it was a very controversial fight no question muhammad ali won because the officials scored it for muhammad ali whether the american public and the world public agrees they will have to make their decision on october 22nd but assuming that ali now retires what i think should happen and i believe what the boxing associations believe should happen is that ken norton and george foreman should fight for the vacant heavyweight championship of the world rhetoric won't solve this don has his own opinions i have mine the better man will win when these two great fighters ken norton and george foreman fight for the vacant heavyweight title if ali in fact is retired bob and don both thank you very much and again remember the night of october 22nd you can score that controversial fight yourself on cbs and the nfl today will continue on cbs right after this word from your local stations share comedy with rhoda

well the giants really made a valiant effort today trying to get their first win but couldn't quite do it as it didn't hang on long enough and it went down to defeat the hands of saint louis cardinals 27-21 in the first quarter here craig morton looks up field trying to hit mike tucker ken bob tucker can do it mike senzabal picks the ball off goes in for the first score of the day the cardinals win ahead at this point seven or nothing the giants again this time mr zonka doing his thing going over for t the first of two today hart rolling out to his right passes to jones the cardinals get back on the scoreboard and lead 17-7 at this point the giants again trying to go through the air route morton passing to gary sherp who carries the ball down to the five-yard line which sets up this next play for larry zonka second touchdown of the day big larry goes over from the one yard line and st louis still leads 20 to 14 at this point but hart's not counted out here yet as he hands the ball off to jones it goes over the cardinals are hit 27-14 the giants trying to come back white going over from the one yard line but not enough as the saint louis cardinals held on to win 27-21 irvine tell you that monday night overtime took much too much out of those grand old men of george allen ambushed in chicago today we'll show you some of the action bob avellini ran for the first touchdown look at the time he had it was a pass play peyton will clear out pat fisher and avelini just goes in for the score payton had a tremendous day rushed for 104 yards he could wind up the nfc rushing leader but harold clinton got him here folks clothesline bingo flags coming from every place out one play and back he came chicago desperately has needed a wide receiver james scott formerly of the wiffle he may help him out here he is catching a touchdown pass joe sizeman replaced billy kilmer for george allen but on this pass it was tipped by tight end and doug plank came right out of center field brought it up field and set up a touchdown and watch this run here by walter payton this is why the bears are beginning to think the future may be now hold jammed up goes to the outside for a touchdown 33-7 chicago a winner a man puts many things in his automobile gasoline it has been around the nfl so long that both of us played against it and you know there's a crew cut under that helmet i know you can't tell it from here i played golf with him and if his family turns out he's got a gallery that looks like augusta he's got about 20 people in his family he's a great guy that of course is earl marl he's got a son who's a monster and quite a football player too an offensive tackle pat can you believe that the rushing statistics would be like this 170 for miami with malone with 94 and the rams have only 65. had to throw so much 164 yards passing 29 for miami that's 19 passes the rams have thrown in the first half that's half a season usually for them the way they rush the football of course keep in mind again that miami for the most part has been playing with a five-man front a five-man defensive line designed to shut off that run tom gerdin and light scales back deep for los angeles and of course gary premium to kick off and also keep in mind that the rams play the second half like it's world war three they have been overpowering in the fourth quarter particularly premium hits a good one scale at the goal line and he swings to his right and now back to the left hit by mandic and scales gets out of bounds and after all that running got only back to about the 13-yard line they're gonna have to tell the rookie to stop fooling around with that bring it up get to the wedge try to get it to the 30-yard line and then bail out let's see if the rams have done some x's and o's on that chalkboard at halftime and have come up with a way to to block the five-man front and figure out when the darn dolphins are in it maybe that's the big confusion looks like it's gonna be a four-man front this time that's exactly what it is three line packers but they're over shifted still the same offensive set up for the los angeles rams james harris still the quarterback and he gets back to mccutcheon kind of finds the running room can't make it tackled by charlie babb who takes him out of bounds actually the rams would probably be better off to go ahead and block it like it's a five and and block that linebacker that stands up and just consider him a defensive end and go ahead and sweep that way and block it like it's an overshifted five and stop trying to make it maybe more difficult than it really is one other interesting statistic on second and eight now for los angeles of the first half this is is the fact that the nfc's leading rusher john capilani had only three carries and picked up only 10 yards it will be second and eighth the ball at the 15 of los angeles in the opening seconds of period number three fake the capillary harris throws tip one of the dolphins got a hand on it burns in herder the six foot six inch defensive end and bonucconi might have intercepted that had been hurt or not knocked it down harris just sort of lobbed that one down the middle and doesn't look like he's really in control right now third pick john williams one of the underrated tackles number 75 right there [Applause] the story on third down conversions in both of those as a matter of fact they're pretty good look how long this third down conversion is that's the problem back there with him and fires he's got the cutting mccutchen swings down the middle outside the 40 and of course it's ram first down lawrence mccutchen has done it all for the rams so far and he comes out of nowhere he'll come to the left of your screen and watch gordon look for him number 50 and all of a sudden 30's in there running flat free and everybody begins to scrape and backhoe as they say well he is some kind of an athlete at least they surrounded him mccutchen caught four passes in the first half alone that's number five he just caught his first down ran ball at their own 41-yard line [Applause] the dolphins got confused on how many men they had on the field and had to take a timeout in order to avoid a five-yard penalty they had one too many that's when you know your defense is really mixing them up right when you pull yourself a couple of times it looks like they've gotten away with 12 men on the field [Applause] that's next sunday the nfl on cbs the giants will open their new stadium in the hack at meadows against the dallas cowboys st louis will be against philadelphia in philadelphia atlanta and new orleans chicago battles minnesota and seattle against green bay that's all in regional broadcast nfl next sunday on cbs how about chicago against minnesota we wouldn't even consider that game that part he's got that bunch really knocking people minnesota's got to play pittsburgh between now and then and chicago just demolished washington today so that game takes a little extra character first down straight ahead for nothing maybe a yard there's tall look at him he claims he's gotten the football and he is mad now he's a broadcast major from k.u he ought to be able to make his point look at it yeah i guess he did tell you one thing if he comes to the studio i let him have the mic broadcast with me when he wants to he's getting the defensive signal either that or don schull is coming to settle down [Applause] maybe a yard by capillary will make it second and nine of the ball at the 42-yard line of los angeles 20 left in the third period the dolphins 14 nothing over the rain [Applause] jesse wide open and he ought to go ron jesse touchdown los angeles and the blocking so this pass was made possible incredible watch hera watch number 60 hera and rich saul stand up come back and set up that's doug france to the top look at 61. and they're 77 now and they really drill those dolphins and get them off and now jesse has really split the underside of that zone and even gets a convoy as harold jackson the roadrunner takes it in too 58-yard touchdown pass from james harris to ron jesse did i say the throw was on he did it should have been because it was really an excellent play by everybody barry hill the dolphin safety man overplayed it just a little bit 87 yards that drive to the five slaves and now dempsey with steve priest holding they've had problems with the extra point and a field goal but this one's good and that'll make it the miami dolphins 14. the los angeles ran seven we have 13 minutes and seven seconds left in the third period a lot of football left they find that gods tough football player is going to have to be helped off the field and by the way you'll see you'll notice one thing here and that is the officials will always give the medical people all the time they want to take care of an injury i remember one you know which one i'm thinking of paul when you were work playing for the san diego chargers when alan the linebacker broke his leg out there do you remember that one i went to the sidelines i i just couldn't believe it he was uh good football he's up with seattle with seattle seahawks right now let's talk about lou holt's head coach of the of the jets right here i chatted with him before the game paul told you that he has a five-year contract and what they say a lot of a lot of football players go from college to the pros and holts is trying to make the pros act like college players now with regard to their dedication and work and he he said he wants people who uh who act like his rookies are acting out here told us the rookies are playing better for him than the veterans are he said there's something wrong when that is the situation well you know the jets really surprised me because everything that you heard about him coming into this game jack has been uh they're one of the worst teams in the national football league and the way they're playing football this afternoon the people in new york have got to be very proud of this football team they came out here the chances that they had to win if you talk about coming in first or second they didn't even have a chance to come in third and the jet fans will have their first chance to see their team at home during the regular season next sunday when buffalo plays there and buffalo won big today so uh halts has uh a lot of work in front of him along with his staff got him out of bounds davis striking down the far sideline on a fine return for miami he said look he's a rookie from cal poly rookie from cal poly i watch him go up put the ball away very very nicely at firm and now he cuts it to the right side now watch tom dempsey make his second tackle of the day watch number 10 come along get him thomas all right 42 yard return by davis the dolphins have the ball at their own 45 yard line ryan jesse by the way has four catches for 134 yards and harris ran quarterback 11 to 22 for 258 yards right now it's bob greasy in the spotlight though as benny malone comes to the outside he broke one tackle [Applause] this game is a tough tough tough way to make a living a lot of glamour associated with it but when you go down and you get hurt why it offsets a lot of the pictures in the paper and other thrills that the players get from performing in this game there's mrs mcgill going to ride the ambulance with her husband it has confirmed that that is his wife so honor the stretcher and into the ambulance and who knows we might even be watching the end of a football career for a very enthusiastic performance let's hope that's not the case when the ball came loose paul any when that ball's rolling around why anything goes right well i thought it was a late hit to start with but i hadn't realized the ball had come loose and you know at that point the ball was fumbled hennigan alert hennigan is alert and he sees the ball now you see it right here now look at mcgill there's clark gaines number 21 he's also in on the play but watch right here there's the ball going down hannigan sees the ball and all he's doing right now is just diving for the football and it just so happens that his head hit mcgills right there paul am i right when we saw him on the stretcher there was apparently nothing wrong with his legs right yeah what they you know it's something to the upper torso but we won't venture any further guess with that we'll just lay off the guesses all together you know what i do like to see is that they take all the precautions in the world and they just you know don't rush out and let's let's uh you know the players let's go help a guy off the field let the physicians do it and let everybody else worry about it later on we have a an updated score as james harris has hit ron jesse with a 58-yard scoring pass to put the rams on the board and the rams now trail miami 14-7 with 13 minutes left in the third watch number 64 now the ball is coming right over his shoulder and twilly is watching first hacksaw in the ball if i was 20 right now i just worry about hacksaw uh boy i don't know that's close i think fully had a chance to catch the ball and i think hacksaw had a legal right to be in front of him running that way as long as he didn't interfere with [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] winfrey gets the call and breaks down to the 15 jackson stan winfrey big block by jim langer jim langer on larry brooks watch number 62 and 66 little works around his and that's where it happens right there a super run but an incredibly good job of blocking against a very good defensive bunch of ball players close enough for a first down or close enough to a first down for a measurement now the dolphins 14 the rams seven with 11 50 to go in the third period measuring for a first down i gotta see new england now if they handle the dolphins and made them look like an average football team they gotta be playing some kind of football what about what they've done since then yeah pretty good team from oakland and a pretty good team from pittsburgh they beat last year what are they doing up there not quite a first down not nearly a yard to go more like a foot but we'll call it second and a very very short one the indication from jim tunney and his fine crew of officials that include pat harder pearl toller bob mcelwee pat knight charlie musser second and short look out for this one malone gets the call and got the dolphin first down down close to the pin [Applause] brooks getting up from underneath the pile i'd imagine you'll find youngblood down there somewhere too and axolotls that would figure does that fit him alone uh just a little bit bowlegged and a little bit quick to go along with it believe we get a shot of him go back to the huddle here in a minute when we get it back on this side it looks like one of his feet might fly off any minute it looks like a human egg beater when he comes down the field the main thing about him is that he's active and he's got a lot of herky jerky motion and tough to tackle number 32 it is first down yardage by bennie malone and the dolphins have the ball at the los angeles 11 yard line the jets and san francisco in the third period the score is nothing nothing by far the best effort so far by the jets they were shut out by miami last week right here first and ten miami on the los angeles 11. gracie's gonna go and he's got lots of room down to just shy of the one-yard line five years ago he would have challenged those tacklers pat the main thing is if you go too early you're in trouble and you go too late you're in trouble and he knows just about linda's act like he's throwing it and now go it's the second rushed in by the defense and now he knows that he's really really pushing it now they want him so bad to stand up he got very close to a first down yardage jackson and perry made the tackle i know what the odds are for a quarterback to run three or four times against the rams and get away with it kind of getting all the kicks out of the chain now made it look easy and now they come back with a good return and bob gracie has them moving and they are in control again second and inches the situation [Applause] ball's at the two-yard line just inside that we have 10 minutes and 41 seconds left third period the dolphins lead the rams 14-7 [Applause] [Music] [Applause] over the top got very close that time left i gave you just a second ago is remaining in the third quarter so there's lots of football left at the orange bowl in miami did not score but he did get the first down at about the half yard line you've got olson and you've got cody jones hacksaw reynolds panning brooks that's an average of about 268 or 270 per that's right in the middle of that ram defensive line bob greasy [Music] andre tillman to the top of your screen the big tight end and larry little leads him through the hole look at that look at 66. that is jim youngblood that he just shadowed all right save play different view good block by foolish too look at that little wow blows him right out of the hole a 55-yard drive climax by that one yard run by stan winfrey it took him six plays the premium makes it 21-7 miami it has been a very very strong showing for don schuler's miami dolphins as they have controlled the football against the rams and lead by two touchdowns [Music] as a sir walter rolly smoker i know a little bit with the linebackers they're just dropping off too far when you're down to a situation third and four and five when you drop off and there's a back that you have to cover you've got to take him you can't get too far back beyond the line you know behind the first down so you can make that play you got to force him right away just come right up on on the back going on the back especially on third down it's a first down now from the 21. and it is williams he made contact and then slid inside for pretty good yardage four yards second and six coming up 210 remaining in the third period that batted pass is the one that might do the jets in washington goes to the right willie mcgee comes left the tight end is mitchell he's on the left side this time second down and six williams again and the whole closed in a hurry is that gallagher got to him with richard neal in on the action boy gallagher is strong and fast he was back to the inside moving down the line going towards the off tackle position when he saw johnson cut back to the inside he made the tackle just a good play williams has run for 50 yards and 15 carries at his third down and three he threw in this spot a while back look it did this is a delay to sandy johnson and it'll be fourth down so not necessarily a very popular call at the orange bowl but it's just as good as if they recovered it they think they should have it and the feeling is hey look what we just did they did they didn't give it to us but by guys we showed him who his boss now watch scales he decides to stay behind the wedge this time no fooling around and watch these people in the those marine green jerseys come through there yeah it's down it's legal they kick it out right there and go after it james harris takes over from the offensive unit first and ten 9 37 left third period the ball for ram 24. and harris says i can't hear across the blue and the crowds delighted that's exactly what they wanted there are no extra seats around here today about 68 70 000 on hand at the orange bowl to watch the rams it's a natural rivalry los angeles in miami let's face it you're not they just don't give away the best oranges all of it no the jets were here last week they complained and complained about the heat lou holt said he hadn't practiced in a day over 70 degrees course he got shut out 16 to nothing i know miami has better oranges in new york oh yeah and again [Applause] the crowd at the orange bowl and harris sets his offensive unit down [Applause] perhaps trying to call it audible he gives mccutcheon crushing was chased behind the line of scrimmage got away from a couple attackers and two or three more john andrews had a chance behind the line of scrimmage larry gordon finally made the tackle and it looks like against that 5-2 that somebody's pulling and nobody's sealing down that that interior alignment and mccutcheon is probably going to be the one that says hey fellas do we know what defense they were in because that's like getting run over at a railroad crossing he got eight yards most of it on his own second second [Applause] touching again trying to sweep behind harrah got the first down hit by toll i believe the middle linebacker watch him again watch this pursuit watch charlie babb come on by tall a little linebacker look at that toll knock people out of the way then the jayhawker gets some help by bam cutting the playback inside and barry's touching he's a pretty active young linebacker i'll say mccutchen's carried 10 times now for 53 yards and he is coming closer and closer to replacing dan cowler as the second leading ram rusher of all time dick bass is number one on first down harris takes and harris fires he's got jackson jackson dances away from a couple he's got a first down in miami territory and again it's steve toe who made the tackle [Applause] little harold jackson to the top of your screen is so fast that he backed kenny ellis way off and ellis knows he's got that 4-3 speed for the 40. so then he just hooks it back up i actually think harold could have either flown if he had the chance or hooked it up i believe that was an option for him not now harris waited that's his biggest gain of the day like about a six or seven yard pickup before bill stanfill and steve tolle again made the tackle that's only the fourth carry of the afternoon for john capoletti and one of the things that john is learning right now is what experience is all about they're facing first some guys that have been in a couple of super bowls or so and they're seeing some different defenses so pretty young team has a little bit of trouble second and four seven minutes now left in the third period miami 21 los angeles seven mccutcheon behind mack cuts all the way back and he is taken down by andrew and larry gordon i believe in the pursuit watch gordon chase him now watch as everybody pulls the block and they forget the guy they're trying to block for mccutchen decides to cut back and all his friends have gone and gordon was a good tackle they say he makes mistakes gordon i mean but they also say he learns rapidly bringing back unused portion he does a pretty good job yes he does [Applause] third and four the dolphins have five defensive backs in the game bryant salter the extra one catholic harris on a quarterback draw and he might have taken too much time that's what it is the man is a down field the official it's downfield it's in charge of that 30-second clock of course it's easy to see this year too much time because there's a clock at both ends of the orange pole all the stadiums have these now that indicates to the fans as well as to us that they have 30 seconds to get underway i'm wondering if maybe the dolphins are playing a game of signals and changing their defenses after the rams have flashed out their offensive signal maybe could be right now they've got the extra defensive back in there brian salter san francisco three the new york jets nothing now in the fourth quarter in san francisco 31-yard field goal [Applause] third and long and again the conversion on third down depends on how much your third down is four this is always playing wrong facing the rams just this day they've got jesse in the backfield again mccutcheon is out yes he pushed number 81 and there he goes in motion got him in the pass pattern deep for jesse touchdown ron jesse ram eb bryant salter i i wondered if 81 had control of the ball as he went over the line to nothing and austin number 67 if you don't think this state these people were doing some holding in here the rush is on either just the ball bounces right back up hardman is the man of tackle name it the ball bounces right back up look at austin holden number 67. hartman makes the stop healing picks it up and scores a touchdown that was the fifth sack today for the 49ers and they now lead nine to nothing bull puts it down nicomeira makes a tender number [Music] [Applause] oh the combination of james harris and ron jesse have hooked up again and they've got the rams second touchdown it's 21-14 [Music] are you like me crazy about cars he works fine you know that machine of yours the camera with weekend sports quarterback steve grogan engineered the route by running for two scores and throwing for three more two td passes went to darrell stingley the third to marlon briscoe patriot fullback sam cunningham ran for 101 yards and caught five passes for 94 yards the patriots are three and one oakland lost its first game in four starts the much improved chicago bears socked it to the old little boat he might look next to it we have a snake plant really hard to kill as the bears handed the redskins their first loss the bear now i'm mentioning this brother a little north of 137th street delafield provided you bet yeah and louis giamona at the top of your screen okay pat knight and there's jesse reaching for the ball now pat knight is the official watch this and he sees those feet go together there and if the ball is in control and he says it is it's a touchdown and the arms go right up dempsey kicks a high kick in the direction of winfrey he decides to let it go and davis finally picks it up and davis looks down shy of the 20 yard line and a flag goes down looks like flipping against miami and they are going to start from deep and it's going to take another greasy drive to sort of set the rams back and his holding called against the dolphins whatever suddenly the impetus has changed to the guys in the golden blue a little bit we still got plenty of time five minutes and 49 seconds left in the third period yet and it's 21-14 miami over los angeles holding against the dolphin and the rams seem to get it going they're you know they're they're like a big machine they begin to labor a little bit early and they don't do things right but by the fourth period when they find out what you're doing if they can decide they can play pretty good football the fourth period at least so far this season has been their quarter here's bob greasy on first down the ball at his own nine yard line to pitch back to malone and malone did well to hang on to the football stopped by monty jackson the right cornerback look at melod watch biddy now if you can pan down just a little bit there's a little guy that came out of at an arizona where they just chopped cotton and sold potatoes and just worked boy that's all the malone brothers do and they can play football and i'm awfully proud of them i'll tell you from all right on to this young fellow you're watching right here from where they all learn how to run and fast second at six the situation now the ball is off at 13 and here's malone again made sure he was down short of a first down [Applause] and again big daryl carlton limps back to the offensive huddle for the miami dolphins number 71 having those ankle problems i'm sure he had it retaped at the half and out comes howard twilly jim excuse me i would say there's a big one a big two yards so hardman and webb are both back there hardman beats roma joe gets back just way too far looking see hard we get back and right after where he just gets slammed what a number he did on him and namath is olympic i don't think we'll see him anymore today here's dwayne carroll putting again and rather than mcgill it's uh bruce taylor and anthony leonard waiting not too deep but high in the air and it'll be well covered oh it's been touched and it's a free ball and it belongs to san francisco they got the break they got the ball back jazz jackson was down there but bruce rhodes got it back for the 49ers well holding right there looked like tillman maybe the tight end huh against isaiah that the bible i tell you not to hold isaiah don't you i think so and that again is the voice of don schuler you just heard with those with those comments on the sideline offense offensively for 88. was the violator that time don schuler again down talking to the officials now it's going to be third and about 11. now do you throw it thomas oh gosh and the rams have just come back and put two on the board in a third period i would certainly be very careful here i think they'll be willing to go ahead and pump the football out i would think so but let's see you saw that ten nothing score san francisco [Applause] tucked the ball away safely he hasn't fumbled all year recall and we'll see larry seifel and yet as soon as you've become so conservative that now you start doing this you lose whatever edge you build up in that first half you see big daryl carlton limping off there is the sure-handed one jim bertelsen back in external wing of the africa blind full-time they say before you know you just hang it up thanks he isn't [Music] disciples deep in his own end zone he's going to try to run it back ferguson shakes one tackler gets into dolphin territory down to the 46-yard line after a 41-yard punt by larry seifel stopped by norm boulaje take a deep breath and take all this in now the cbs sports spectacular next saturday at 4 30 p.m eastern time has the world light heavyweight championship here one of the few he's run today he's got all the time in the world steps up in the pocket he sees washington breaking interference defense first down they got their feet tangled i don't know whether he made any hand contact and push but he must have because the other official through the flag it's first down at the 20-yard story and mccutcheon gets the call cuts back inside a block by dennis i believe i he actually tripped on hera and still made about five what's the man now that spent four years of his life in fort collins colorado now let's see if he trips on hera he does that dennis herrera knocks everything down including his own ball players i say that fight was in germany mount everest i think you said right open hogan i think i know it's in denmark percussion again got a couple of blockers out in front gets around the corner and spins close to a first down bill stanfill made the tackle notice how harris is going on a little bit longer counts looks like he's going on three and four and he's in no hurry to make the uh call on the line of scrimmage and it's settled down the offensive pattern looks like they're beginning to pull and cleanly get the job done a little bit it's gonna be third and less than a yard with two minutes and 12 seconds left in the third period miami 21 los angeles 14. touching the workhorse got the first down he paid for it there pat he paid for it didn't hurt her really stuck it the six foot six defensive end from central iowa can't believe all he ever played was basketball watch this though i think it did hurt or maybe toll the middle linebacker and capiletti goes through the hole and gets cracked i believe it's toll that young linebacker that did most of it mccutchen got the first down yardage he needed but nothing more mccutchen goes out limps out in fact and the tandem of setbacks now for the rams are bertelson and capoletti [Applause] fires over the middle he's got jeffy again mary hill is having a heck of a time with jesse well it's the darn much room between the linebackers and the safety men what's this fake in fact the fake is so good that harris almost gets tangled up himself and he's got a problem with stanford it's one of the great throws that james hurst has ever made because he had to do it under a lot of duress randy crowder was looking right at him 17-yard pickup forcing up for a first down for los angeles ball of the 18-yard line 50 seconds left third period campaletti gets the call kathy [Applause] by ken ellis on the outside ellis came up and stuck it pretty good [Applause] when the rams finally get the yard located in focus on you they can really play the rushing game of football bertelson goes out mccutcheon comes back bonnie connie is not only a great linebacker and going to be a heck of a broadcaster but he's also a lawyer isn't he yeah practices here in miami there he is number 85 harris the pass protection is good pop flying jump fell over a couple of dolphins and couldn't come down the ball is that your friend barry hill that was up on top i think so number 44 was klein is about six foot five and a half inches tall anyway big guy from santa monica now watch this the jump ball at the nba stuff that's barry hill landing on head bryant salter goes into the defensive unit on third and seven now and quantity comes [Applause] with an out pass he throws back the harris bounces it back to harris if it's a lateral of course it's okay harris picks it up and goes to the three-yard line and i'm assuming it was a lateral that's what they're gonna make sure but if it didn't go laterally with the least bit forward it's just an incomplete pass take a look at it now watch where mccutchen is where he throws and watch where it bounces to harris remember he can't take a pass back the quarterback is not a legal receiver i believe it's a lateral it is a legal play that's the end of the third quarter with the score miami 21 los angeles 14. we now pause for a word from your local station sideline dragging that right knee a bit to the left it's david knight for calling to the right to give is to marinero he broke a couple of tackles and gained about nine yards on the play before mel phillips finally put a stop to it along with dave washington the linebacker marinero actually has been on the only offense that the jets have had all in his afternoon year now from cornell and he has gained 94 yards and 16 carats it's a good day's work second down and one todd the rookie from alabama 6-2 2-10 good time to throw the ball with it but he doesn't he gives to marinero for a first down carry you say no well when i saw him running i said no you know jack it's a tough situation you're coming into a ball game 17 points down you're in the fourth quarter and and uh you see the other quarterback in front of you getting mauled all afternoon you know and it came into a game and he's really not warmed up to start throwing a football he's got to run some plays the 49ers know it uh i'd hate to be in his position right now fields is the center boston erasmus in the guards the fake to marinero good action a pop pass to marinero and he gained about seven yards on the play you can sure see the difference in the mobility of the two quarterbacks it's almost uh when we watched damon that he couldn't drop quickly enough to throw a screen or anything of the sword paul all right like like with todd here now you've got to be a little bit more careful with with this man because he'll come out and run on you he can dance around a little bit there's nothing making up making the tackle on marinara but he can he can move a little bit better than joe namath so he's got they got a container to the outside you can't just take off and run at it second down and two he is going to throw the ball and good coverage out there by mel phillips a pass in complete the saturday and now he's simply a rushing faulker by the way harris has 30 yards in four carry might also point out that if the defense had recovered that they could not pick it up and run with it crowd still doesn't understand the glass brewing but there was nothing wrong with that james harris and his offensive unit first down and goal from the three he gives to mccutcheon behind campbell and harrah and the couple did not get in he got to the one that was the first play of the fourth period at the orange pole in miami where the dolphins lead the rams 21-14 at summer all with tom brookshire perfect late afternoon in south florida well that toll that young linebacker really gets a great lateral pursuit that play looked like it had td written all over it toll somehow got over and turned it upside down and a good day for james harris as you can see second and goal the hands are up they knocked him back and look at harris helping get some of his linemen up he helped doug france up he waits lets the undercharge take care and up over the top at least once again it was very close but if any part of the ball is over or on the goal line it is touchdown from that angle it doesn't look like he made it but from straight down the sideline it does tom dexter to try to tie it up now and he does it is the miami dolphins 21 the rams 21 harris and the rams took nine plays to go 46 yards to time least mighty particularly 22 second down and seven todd straight back look out richard todd he throws was it caught yes it was it is first and goal to go david knight with the defender jimmy johnson hanging all over him makes it first and goal from a yard and a half oh look at this you talk about a perfect pass he's got good protection hardware's coming from the back side but todd gets this off johnson's there but look at this catch perfect now i'll watch al crevis who just checked into the line the second year man from boston college blocking number 71. he's sitting there blocking heart uh for heart that's a call that slam dunk across the side of your head in it first goal and a touchdown for new york with marinero going across marinero with a touchdown and nothing will give a young quarterback more confidence in his team and in himself and take being put in the situation like he was here todd and move your your team the whole length of the field and score a touchdown give them fives a nice going kid the extra point attempt by leahey attempting to make it 17-7 7-21 remaining in the game [Applause] tommy hart i believe is the one who got in there and knocked it down that keeps the jets 11 points behind oh it was the bowling ball himself nottingham one of the great blockers not having a good rushing year and bourage has sort of displaced him right now who's a little bit better pass receiver but everything that rams have done has been close they almost juggled one of the end zone that jesse caught would they score on the last quarterback sneak or not but this kind of a game between two great clubs i think is decided that way scoreboards got it 21 apiece with just over 14 minutes left in the football game the rams and the daltons hard at it gracie takes the win free and fires this time from alone malone comes into the secondary about an eight-yard pickup before he is stopped by jim youngblood a great call by bob gracie and one of the great tackles by the man you see right there jim youngblood here's jack youngblood no relation putting the rush on and down the field jim youngblood made a heck of a tackle on malone in the open field coming out of the backfield he made that pass reception on second and one now a nine-yard pickup by greasy on first down the back closest to him gets the ball gets right to the 50-yard line in a first down you see him looking he's looking right by the yard marker and also toward the coach he hadn't made that he has to look shula right in the eyes shula can look pretty tough sometimes now you've been covering that more all day and he hasn't caught a pass that's right that would scare me to death if i was over on defense i'd be saying i know they have to go to him in this kind of a game center in the event you might have joined us late bob griese is playing with a badly bruised and sore finger on his throwing hand fires outside fuller says he by monty jackson bonnie jackson the young man from san diego state the top of your screen a quick out most d50 backs just fear the very thought of missing a tackle on this watch what jackson does power twilly you won't see twilly drop too many either [Applause] the information has just come to us that this is james harris best game ever as far as the cumulative yards are concerned wintry in the backfield i'll give you that extra information in a minute winfrey's the pullback against baltimore in 1975 james harris had 294 yards he's already got 336 today so it looks like he's well you know what i like about the way he's running the game and i'm talking about appreciating that quarterback's play is that he really has run his offense under under awful conditions today great defense a lot of changing fronts and he's been very cool and as you see right now it's greasy just got to pick up the big third thing jim mandic in the game for the dolphins and so is larry [Music] [Applause] rifle number 20. and out of the backfield he comes through isaiah robertson right with boo that's bill simpson is down down the field too far out for a premium cycle of stay in and fun [Applause] and keep in mind the point that tom brookshire made earlier in our broadcast seifel can run with the football that's a good spot on the field to take off with it too seifel in addition is a fine athlete fine enough to pass as well ferguson back at the 10-yard line for the rams by himself he's a fair uh coffin corner kicker that would be the ideal thing to do right now is to try to drop it in the corner he's looking at that direction he hangs it high ferguson goes over the look not very effective it went out of bounds at the 24 and that's where the rams will take it over now they move up to the 25-yard line where the rams will take over we have 11 minutes and 42 seconds left and the fourth period at the orange bowl it's 21-21 between the rams and the dolphins linebacker number 50 getting him along with hardman 440 left well the reason you know the reason i said pot their jack is that they are 11 points ahead that means that that the jets have to score two touchdowns the touchdown of the field goal just wouldn't help him david knight comes to the left and piccolon is to the right caught on second down fakes for the delay what a toss that was the marinero baronero is still going across the 40-yard line what a play by richard todd going down and he threw a sidearm curveball you're going to love that play what a move he made but again it was this is a screen to marinero and what happened is the rush came so fast hart was in there he pivots back to the outside todd and look at he's on his way down when he fired the ball marinaro made a knee-high catch and then got some good blocks downfield as phillips was crumbled it's a first down of their own 43 for new york cookie out here to the tight end to caster that's good for about three and a half minutes 3 27 left vanderbund chased him out he makes it exciting doesn't he well the jets have made it exciting here today paul that one batted ball that went up in the air seemed to turn the tide when mitchell caught it didn't it yeah in the past really by namuth [Music] see the athlete can do everything at about three-quarter speed and it's faster than just drawing near anybody else or anything else that's just what he did he's supposed to throw it nobody was fooled he puts it away san francisco 17 the new york jet six that's a fourth quarter score at candlestick park look at this one end of a dream huh right 23-0 denver over san diego and dallas has taken the lead in the fourth period over seattle cowboys 21. seattle 13. third down and james harris drops the pass and throws he got jesse again jesse broke one tackle now breaks another one and ron jesse gets away from another man and shakes again jesse to the 43-yard line before they finally gang up and stop him a first down los angeles brian salter missed him at least twice here's the play good blocking now an over defense by the dolphins and the pass rush now is non-existent harris stands straight up here's salter's first shot at number 81 jesse look at that balance now jesse decides to cut it up field he would like to be tackled now in a neat fashion but nobody wants to cooperate and he has to go through it they're salter again number 30. he stayed with it fine by jesse he came out of the backfield again that's catch number 70 for run for seven record ron jester 70. [Applause] not bad coverage either by kenny ellis but what do you do again watch the pass blocking that was capoletti helping to the top mccutchen helping to the bottom on stanford look at this diving catch on a deep sideline 25-yard gain by jackson good catch jesse i started to say a minute ago before i gave him 70 catches has seven for 220 yards two touchdowns not too shabby and he's not through maybe [Applause] is a virtue you know even in football where everything explodes on the count on the line of scrimmage that time capillary went to the left and saw the defense sort of overrunning and then he just turned it back inside against minnesota the rams ran that play with catholic carrying and looking for the hole against carl eller 14 times in one ball game he finally at the offensive tackle let me give you my playbook don't you have another play here's pearlson straight ahead looking for the first down he got inside the 10-yard line the attendance today 65 314. they haven't been disappointed now if you had to write a script for one and let's say the rams get three points there's still a lot of time left so what we're trying to say is the the rams want to really nail down seven now and not take a chance because as we've told people before if you're thinking about an early dinner this could be one where it might be a little bit longer could be eight minutes and 21 seconds left on the clock now third and two amplity right behind james harris but mccutcheon gets the call mccutcheon's got the first down touchdown los angeles lawrence mccutcheon sweeping to his left scores for the ram all right here's this 206 pounder look at max inside doug france inside good blocks that cut off the pursuit now the feet take over just inside the flag no problem and good luck by tom mack cut down charlie bad and mccutchen got it in is los angeles 27. miami dolphins 21. dempsey and steve priestholding trying to make it 28. dead center ramp 28 the dolphins 21. mccutcheon nine-yard touchdown run and a drive that went 75 yards and took just seven plays rams lead by seven [Applause] fiscal line is just crumbling those quarterbacks what you do is you grab a guy like knight when he comes back in the huddle you say look if i want to stand back here and get killed at least you can do is catch the ball when i get it to you second down and 10. 208 remaining in the game scores 17-6 the 49ers on top center white goes to the right they play another game and there goes eva fumble kicked by heart loose ball jets have it way back inside the 35-yard line rasmussen recovered it hart was trying to get out and he kicked it elam came looping around from the outside they nailed him again by hartman and elam and uh webb and heart have been shaking hands all day congratulating each other jack what's happening is rasmussen and roman two people on the left guard attack we'll get to it a second yeah the rams have gone ahead of the dolphins by the way 28-21 in the fourth quarter i don't believe that's no i'm not going to comment on it i don't think it is can you sing nope there's a song off see there you look like paul moreau monroe they had a wardrobe right here's tom tipsy [Music] get us a line drive kick again nottingham hit by thomas gets out to the 38-yard line where the dolphins will take over dempsey really having a problem with his kickoff tough team though to catch up against oh yeah real tough team to try to load it up the only thing that's great about bob greasy is that he doesn't try to do it in one play anyway well if you're trying to do it in one play against the team that rushes the passer as well as the rams do then you're going to have a lot of problems and it's first and ten for greasy in an offensive unit boulashin malone the offensive backs with seven minutes and 55 seconds left to play here comes the blitz outside malone and he fell down boy was that ever set up how did young blood how was he the one that came over and touched down benny malone again that's regular grass then he just got everything all tangled up yes the blockers in front more he did now once jack youngblood being picked up here by bula should get us a screen now the ball is already gone most guys would quit right now the guardian ran breyer goes over and he's got his buddy there watching making sure they lost four yards so it's second and [Applause] [Music] 14. this time the production holds capture the day by matt moore as greasy laid it right in there he scares me at 5 10 about 185 pounds he has that sudden burst he is to the top of your screen coming straight across and watch where he catches it he doesn't even see or hear these people he's a fearless fearless little receiver i'll tell you he is tough played his high school football right here in miami and with the university of florida 19 yard pickup the dolphins are in ram territory with just under six and a half minutes left to play in the game [Music] again good protection firing deep this time again for more he's out there touchdown 47-yard strike from gracie to moore top of the screen a deep post pattern a beautiful throw by a guy who is supposed not to have a big arm that's from about the 45-yard line and i mean it is a spaceship watch the catch matt moore's 17th catch of the year that's 51 and a half yards right on the button and i mean on the numbers what a strike a now a premium with a chance to tie it up and he does look at that clock and it shows six minutes and 17 seconds left to play in the game it's the dolphins 28 the rams 28. [Applause] this is the other johnson sammy johnson he wants to stay in bounds and he does with 20 seconds remaining and now the dolphins have tied the rams 28-28 in that game and we'll check and see how much time is left i guess about four minutes remaining and that one 28-28 the dolphins and the rams and this one ends right here so after a scoreless first half the 49ers with elam picking up a fumble and going on in to score after a batted pass seemed to change everything around 49ers got on top 17 to nothing they have won the game 17-6 they have a record of three and attention please now coming in [Applause] up and down in front of the dolphin bench it's 28 apiece you know what he's saying to chuck knox don't get that chartered airliner all warmed up it's going to be a while think about overtime i'm sure there's ron jaworski standing alongside chuck dodson your premium you think there's this much tension in [Applause] cyprus [Applause] yard line maybe the 33 stopped by gary davis are you the quarterback quarterbacks say do not leave the ball in your own territory for the other guys to have because you can lose it right at the gun right both teams have long ranged field goal kickers the premium and dempsey both can reach it for 50 yards although dempsey's had a troublesome day 28-28 with just over six minutes left to play at the orange bowl in miami first and ken but iran and mccutchen gets the call now maybe got three perhaps four we said it a little bit earlier about bob gracie the great quality i i really like in his play card is that he'll save something and he'll save a great player like a nat more or don nottingham late if he can use him in a particular way and boy that's class that's poised i suppose in addition to the fact that you think about overtime you also think about the fact that it won this particular at one point the dolphins had to use one of their timeouts when they had too many men on the field but they only have two left rams have three here's capoletti cappy formed on by gordon and andrew number 70 and it'll be third down for james harris larry gordon was the arizona state football player that you and i saw doing fbs devote on cbs that was ejected for fighting and he was a number one draft and that may be the reason sheila drafted him he's tough he is tough there's a final score san francisco 17 the new york jet six new york teams this year owen eight catholics had a tough day harris has a lot of time oh jackson is wide open harold jackson wide open all alone barry hill finally came over and took him down but jackson was all alone how did he get so open jairus white lets him go number 41. you won't see it on this sequence again there's so much time with the three-man rush and finally side straddle hop harold jackson gets the information but here you see number 44 come on to make the tackle but actually jairus white number 41 will show up in just a minute he does it right there but jairus white was the one that sort of checked in and let him go thinking he had deep safety help and he did that we got four minutes and five seconds left to play the dolphins 28 the rams 28. paul is on the 10-yard line of miami first down [Applause] well he did show up in a hurry the safety man again we'd like to say i don't think it was barry hill's fault in the long harold jackson path i i believe the young cornerback thought he had deep health and didn't they've got to go all the way to the goal line they can't make a first down without making a touchdown the yard line marker right on the 10-yard line the other one right on the goal line so it's second and seven second and goal at the setup now we're getting down to three minutes left to play score all tied at 28-28 three points nervous time for tom dempsey three points for three minutes and remember dempsey's had a very very hard day he's had two kicks blocked he's missed one out right there are no chip shots right field goal kicker nicely not with it's late in the game and the score is tied harris now has 436 yards passing attention again does not get it but he's got deputy right in front 436 yards and doesn't have the football game one it's still tied 17 of 29 is harris by far his best day and here comes tom dempsey the priest will hold again the dempsey always told me what i try to think about is i'm going to kick it just as hard now and as firmly as i'm trying to kick a 45-yarder but can you tell yourself to do it that way petra that's what you ought to be thinking but that is very very hard to do now distance should really be a factor on this one the hole the center and the strokes and gypsy as the two minute warning comes out is going to have a little time to think about it and that can't be too much of a help it's 28 a piece [Music] shelf well welcome the folks who were watching the denver san diego game and we talked before the games today about the fine san diego offense but it was not operative today we'll have more on that later we sure will okay what were we up to ah the washington game okay oh we do want to go back to the washington game okay for those fans who just joined us the bears again beat the washington redskins 33-7 today bob thomas had four field goals bob avolini the quarterback ran for one through for another walter payton ran one in all in all it was a very good day for the bears they actually led 33 to nothing the touchdown was the theism in the jerry smith effort uh long after the issue was decided 33 to seven the bears are now three of the one i think houston probably got a little more than they thought they were going to get from new orleans today hank straum is beginning to put a team together down there he of course beat kansas city last week and with a final minute score he made it close against houston the final 31-26 for a while it looked as if houston might blow him out but new orleans came back and really tightened it up a good ball game that one very good ball game 57 points scored that's only seven more than buffalo scored alone today they beat the kansas city cheese 50 to 17 paul wiggin doesn't think it's so funny his chiefs are now oh and four for the bills a very good offensive show including a good show for a man by the name of oj simpson we're four weeks into the season he waited until the fourth quarter but he finally got his first touchdown right here following a jeff kinney block cuts inside and this one was late in the game simpson got 132 yards in the day again buffalo a winner that scored 50 to 17. now here's a would you believe for today would you believe seattle was leading dallas at one point 13 nothing jim zorn had thrown two touchdown passes before roger staubach got things organized for dallas he then threw a couple of tv because everybody's looking right at you for that for the one miss maybe well i think it is two kicks all yours in the snowstorm in the blizzards right well i couldn't see that's why there it is boy i tell you he really sucked it let's see if he makes the signal density usually gets priests everybody gets them up steve preece of course indicating it was good you saw it coming just inside the right upright and tom dempsey who just put the rams ahead 31-28 you know what he'll do he'll go back to california and cook chateaubriand something about nine pounds of good beef and eat it all himself get it all by himself and don schuler whose club has put on quite a performance this afternoon now a little bit dejected now they only have two timeouts remember that a minute and 56 seconds left to get the ball in range for your premium or the possibility of a victory is dempsey is now lined up to kick off boulage and davis needs for miami this time he hits another knuckleball he butts down a couple gets out to the 29-yard line he had to get way down low for that button we ought to keep in mind that your premium can bang them through from about 45 or 48 fairly strongly so you need what three first downs and you still have a chance to have a sudden [Applause] david fox associate producer rick sharp we're not through yet no sir if you've got the early flight mr sumrall you better call him up i do not the premier as you think about it would have a little bit of a wind at his back if gracie can get him in range moore is foot wide to the right and 20 to the left greasy goes back fully maybe a simultaneous catch the rams are saying they got it keep in mind and pearl troller the official indicating that it is an interception from los angeles and that ought to do it bonnie jackson who was it i believe it has to be monday jackson coming from that direction here it is here's the pass rush a three-man rush young blood makes greasy step up it's elmendorf and jackson who are involved in the coverage and elmendorf got the intercept and almadorf came in with sort of a strained ankle he didn't feel like he was going to be 100 there he is there's dave [Applause] there's some kind of a plane flight back to los angeles after this comeback dolphins went 21-7 at one point rams had the football with a minute 37 seconds left the dolphins have only two timeouts left the country goes to the outside he doesn't want to get out of bounds see a flag go down i think so [Applause] problem is you can almost stall out the clock what you don't want to do is lose any important players and they're all important now uh in the last minute and a half of a victory i've seen a lot of guys glide and let up and relax and get uh get walked penalty is going to be against the rams tom mack over talking these dolphins have played some kind of a defensive football game except in the secondary james harris has had a super day i think that was from a lot of time too i think you know it's a combination of everything they have defense the run extremely well there's the indication but when harold jackson was wide open in the closing minutes of a very very close tied up football game that's that's hard to believe after they fought so hard now when the dolphins need to stop the clock is that unnecessary timeout they had to call mike costa they only have two left a minute and 31 seconds left the rams have it first and 23 the ball at the room 41. campbell gets the ball definitely chase and kathy goes down the defensive unit against the run has it let up barry hill and steve told the first time the rams have ever beaten the dolphins is am i correct in that that's right the only second time they played you know all those stats like that but you really drive me crazy that's the time-out situation as miami just call one of theirs now the dolphins next week have the baltimore colts i would say a rather ancient rival and there's shula he's not thinking about the colts yet and the los angeles rams go against the san francisco 49ers on a monday evening tonight some facts about campaign contributions that might surprise you that's one of the stories on 60 minutes tonight with mike wallace dan rather and morley safer i think you'll be surprised how about contributions could be you owe me when i bet you that merlin olson would start is 188th consecutive game and you said last week he would well after looking at him on the sideline last week i thought there was no way all right okay what i owe you i'll tell you later all right there's the offensive line and they have to share in what was one of the great passing afternoons of all time and sure do boy james harris has certainly done that 436 yards he's picked up that's unofficial james harris his biggest day is iran second down and 22 capitality infertilism the running backs in ferguson gets the call a sweep forced to take more time fertilson does not get out of bounds doesn't want to get out of bounds the dolphins may have to call another timeout right here okay i'm gonna catch you on one this time okay the all-time passing yardage by iran quarterback though is not this record of james harris it's foreign bob waterfield or norman van brockler you were right it was the dutchman 500 or something i think about 300 of it over me one day watch it against the eagles bob greasy carol you're priming in front of him 42 seconds left during the game clock rams 21 31 the dolphins 28. it's third down back to bernalson covered up does not come close to the first down and with 27 seconds left the dolphins use their last timeout they'll get the ball back for one more series [Applause] would you ever think about putting another quarterback in to throw the last two or three i guess that would be ridiculous if your other quarterback has put you so close like in this case i'm thinking about struck instead of greasy or moral instead of i would think about it i suppose because gracie is supposed to have a bad finger didn't look like it on that touchdown pass and that more plus you know he's been warm throughout the afternoon gotta stay with him there's more deep back at the 10-yard line rusty jackson is the ram punter number nine a rookie i think they're going to try to block it i think they're going to that means he's got to get off at less than two seconds that's what they time him [Applause] jackson standing back at his own 38. [Music] long count again they tried to block it they didn't hit him they stayed away moore is going to field it at the 10. get down immediately that's a long way to go with no timeouts the clock stopped now with 17 seconds left good punt by jackson a couple of nibble plays to the outside and then try to stretch a zone so far with speed on both ends of it that maybe you can get somebody to make a mistake with no timeouts left you got to work that sideline [Applause] boulass checking in with greasy who will run this first play and throw this last pass from deep in his own territory the ball at the 10-yard line after moore fielded that point a good punt by jackson under those circumstances this club did quite a job too though you know nobody ever thought they could come out and run on the los angeles ramp maybe it's more than that it's a poison scoreboard then him alone over a hundred yards a couple of throwing rooms greasies ass rushes on but the protection is adequate he fires up the middle that's kicked off this time by simpson and simpson cuts back down the sideline simpson to the 15 to the 10 los angeles football game and the rams will remain undefeated we have one second and they stop the clock down with two seconds left on the scoreboard rams have the one tie against minnesota miami's record will drop to two and two i think we'll see both of these clubs later on i had no idea the dolphins were this tough and physical a football team they can play with anybody rams won't want to come and play him anymore [Music] don schuler had his club repair prepared in good fashion he doesn't know mr rosenblum very well do you think the owner of the ranch i imagine he's a casual acquaintance chuck knox knows him pretty well that's kenny meyer alongside chuck crowd now starting to empty out he should be all of it and harris just stumbles backwards ferguson and capillary protect him and the los angeles rams have defeated the miami dolphins 31-28 that's the end of the game the final score 31-28 will be back at the orange pole in just a moment [Music] sometimes the competitive instinct can lead to more than survival you
