A win by the Baltimore Colts,

the big surprise of the NFL this season,

brings them into a tie

for first place in the American Football Conference

Eastern Division.

Then all they'd need is a victory next week

to cop the title.

Let's go join Chuck Thompson at Memorial Stadium.

Well, at the moment we are having technical difficulties, hopefully they will be straightened

out in a moment or so, and they are now.

Let's go join Chuck Thompson.

The situation of the Baltimore Colts.

Well, they're for real.

They're doing a great job.

Their defenses, they come on strong, especially their front floor.

They put a lot of pressure on a quarterback. Offensally, Bert Jones, he's backed up by Marty Domery's. Idell Mitchell, their offensive line is a fine offensive line. They've got good receivers. March of Brod has done a great job with this football team. They won seven in a row. And for your Miami Dolphins, what's the key to winning this crucial game?

Well, not to make the mistakes that we made against them in a game down there. We had a 14-0-0 lead, and then we made a lot of offensive errors. And then in the second half, they did a good job of controlling the ball against us. They won against us up front. We can't let that happen again. And now, Coach Stadmacher brought up briefly your evaluation of this Miami club.
