Game Notes

A classic upset by the Oilers, beating the Chargers 17-14.

Despite playing without injured stars Earl Campbell, Dan Pastorini and Ken Burrough, Houston stages the stunner in San Diego. Vernon Perry rides to the rescue intercepting 4 passes and blocking a FG attempt that sets up the Oilers' 1st score on a FG by Toni Fritsch.

Houston takes the lead for good on a 47-yard TD pass from Gifford Nielsen to Mike Renfro in the 3rd quarter.
