description

Having already scored three times in this one, rookie Oilers running back Earl Campbell decided to make his fourth score his best. Taking a pitch to the right from inside the Oiler's own 20-yard line, Campbell dodged one defender in the backfield before beating the rest of the defense to the edge. From there it was a foot race, which Campbell won, sprinting to the end zone for an 81-yard score. Campbell tallied 199 yards and four touchdowns on the ground in this one, as the Oilers beat the Dolphins, 35-30, on Nov. 20, 1978.
