Time will tell on Oilers offense under Peterson
Houston Oilers coach Bill Peterson emphasizes offense as he moves pro players like Pete from Rice into a high tempo unit. In a 20 to 17 exhibition loss to Chicago, Peterson’s aerial attack and quick receivers gave the Bears trouble, with Lynn Dickey connecting to Ken Gilgo and Jim Bennie Johnson while rookies struggled on defense. The game ended with Chicago edging Houston 17 to 14 after a late field goal was nullified.
