Endzone lockout Cowboys? Oilers beat Patriots in rain
The Houston Oilers defeated the New England Patriots 74 to 0 in Boston as New England after a five day strike faced an unprepared offense led by quarterback Neil Graff with Jim Plunkett sidelined. Graff completed 10 of 18 passes amid heavy rain and Houston’s strong defense. The Patriots showed 78 plays to 49 for Houston and 17 first downs to seven, but failed to score.
