their sea sons Now that in the San Diego Chargers and Tampa Bay Bu canneers would really like to stick around fora while To do that the Chargers and Bucs will have to win on the road Satur day San Diego at Miami and Tam pa Bay at Dallas when the NL playoffs resume In games the wild card New York Giants play at San ran cisco in the NC and Buffalo wild card qualifier in the AC plays at Cincinnati The Giants advanced with a 27 21 victory over defending NCchampion Philadelphia last Sunday and Buffalo moved into the division round with a 31 27 victory aver the New York Jets Chargers enter dangerous territory San Diego needed a victory in the final Monday night game of the sea son over Oakland to clinch the AC West championship and move into the postseason picture Tampa Bay took the same route to the playoffs eliminating Detroit and winning the NC Central with a victory over the Lions in the final regular season game for both teams Both late qualifiers were just a stride ahead of the wild card teams in their conferences and because Miami and Dallas had the second best won loss records in their con ferences the Dolphins and Cowboys have the home games San Diego brings one of the most explosive attacks into its game at Miami The Chargers set NL re cords for total yards with 6744 and for passing yards with 4739 both breaking records which San Diego had established last year The Chargers led the league with 478 points an average of 298 points per game Quarterback Dan outs is the man who makes the Chargers go He set records for pass attempts (609) completions (360) and yards (4802) shattering marks he set last year in all thrCe categories He also threw 33 touchdowns Tight end Kellen Winslow won his second straight receiving crown grabbing 88 passes for 1075 yards

an NL record shared by Earl Campbell and Jim Taylor by rushing for 19 touchdowns The Dolphins figure they can con trol that high powered Charger at? tack though Miami finished fifth in' AC defense and held opponents to 10 points or less eight times this sea son What's more the Dolphin defense seemed to get better in the last few weeks Miami allowed less than 200 yards passing and less than 300 yards in total offense for each of its final five games The Dolphins al lowed only 53 points and five touch downs over that stretch And Miami is a good home field team The Dolphins were 6 1 1 in the Orange Bowl this season and have lost only 17 of 93 games played there under Coach Don Shu ia Tampa Bay also is up against a team that plays exceptionally well at home in Dallas The Cowboys are undefeated in Texas Stadium Gver the last two seasons and take a streak of 16 consecutive home victo ries into the game against the Bucs home field advantage really mean all that much once you get to the says Cowboy Coach Tom Landry you get to the final round of eight any team can win Tampa Coach John McKay is a little wary of the home field edge think it may be a little more dif ficult to defeat them on the road be cause they are more familiar with the surface and the weather is un predictable there "he said But Tampa has overcome those odds before The Bucs ended an eight game home winning streak when they beat Detroit to gain the division title and their ticket to the playoffs The Bucs depend on quarterback Doug Williams for their offense He had his best season with 238 471 for 3563 yards and 19 touchdowns Most of the receiving damage was done by Kevin House who set Tampa club records for catches (56) yards (1176) and TDs (9) They will be working against a Dallas secondary which
