8 THE CAROLINA TIKES .SAT,, JANUARY 16, 1982 ' Cincy Freezes' San Diego 49's Stop Dallas In NFC By Larry Barber Twenty-six teams have now been eliminated from the National Foot ball League's regular, playoff, and cbampion . ship season; , leaving two shining stars to battle for the world championship j, in Super Bowl XVI. In Sunday's American ' Football Conference title j ,game, the. Cincinnati! Bengals roared by the; San Diego Chargers I 27-7, and the San Fran-1 cisco 49ers ended Dallas' hopes with a 28-27 Na- Football Con-i championship : The first game frosted "cake i while the other fiery . "barn- tional ference victory, was a walk", was a burner." It is not always ap propriate to say "I told you so", but if you read this writer's article last week, you Jcnow that he; favored both victors., The predibtion did have its flaws, however; where Cincy was thought to be only three points better (27-24), the -Chargers were 20 points worse, and Frisco, given a wider margin (24-20), had to win in the last few seconds by one. The two games were contrasts in futility. San Diego committed four turnovers, two lost fumbles, two ntercep-1 tions, and lost big; while Frisco overcame three in- tercepted passes and three lost fumbles to win. 1 At kickoff time in Cin cinnati, the temperature was minus nine degrees, but the Bengals heated things up in the first quarter on a 31-yard Jim Breech field goal, and an eight-yard touchdown pass from Ken Anderson to MX. Harris. The Chargers came back with a 33-yard scoring toss from Dan Fouts to Kellen Winslow in the se cond period, but Cincy matched that with a one- yard Pete Johnson plunge. SF scored on its first possession against ' the Cowboys, but Dallas dampened the 49er spirit and led 10-7 after one quarter of action. The home team came back with another TD in the second, but oppor tunistic Dallas . also reached the end zone again,, and led 17-14 at halftime. In the seesaw affair, SF regained the lead with a TD in the third, only to see Dallas score ten more points in the fourth and lead 27-21 with five minutes to play. That set the stage for a miraculous 49er com eback. Starting on his own eleven yard line, quarterback Joe Mon tana picked Dallas apart using short passing strikes and timely runn ing plays. With inside a 1 minute left, SF had the ball third down and three ' yards for a first down on i the Cowboy ' six yard stripe. Montana sprinted to his right, and found a leaping Dwight Clark in -the back of the end zone for the tying score, and 1 Ray Wersching kicked the extra point. The 49er defense . .preserved ; the gem, when Lawrence Fillers sacked Danny White, causing a fumble, which was recovered by Jim Stuckey. j San Francisco, now 115-3 (best in the NFL), will . meet Cincinnati, 14-4 (second best record), in the Super . Bowl. The game is set for a 4 p.m. start in Pontiac, Michigan's Silverdome on January 24. Check this newspaper next week for a team-by-team analysis, and more predictions.
