There isn't a Houston team currently moving on (there is a Titans squad safely in the next rnd) This is the run&shoot offense, Buddy Ryan defense Oilers, both ranked 4th in the NFL -- 37 year old Warren Moon had 22 scores and 21 picks. 24 year old Gary Brown started just half the season and rushed for a thousand yards. The defense gets to the QB -- the front 4 combined for 38 sacks: 31 year old William Fuller, 31 year old Ray Childress, 31 year old Sean Jones and 26 year old Glenn Montgomery. 24 year old Marcus Robertson was an All Pro with 7 picks, the punter Greg Montgomery also was an All Pro. Houston knocked off the '71 Dolphins 31-17 in the play in round; Buddy Ryan's the DC for these Oilers and we get to see him against Jimmy Johnson. We get the All Texas matchup, 1/16 game to get Region 11 rolling. Let's head to Texas Stadium for the kick.
