The Dolphin pass rush,
meanwhile, has been punchless
in recent weeks. Pats’ quar-
terback Steve Grogan, probably
the best running quarterbad in
the league, "presents a par
ticular problem to the defense.
He was obviously the difference
in the last game," Shula said.

"k't ironic that we « been
struggling aad haven't won the
big game this year," Miami
Coach Don Shula said, "but it
comes down to us needing the
one big game Thursday night
We're due in that situation '
la Shula’s 10th season at
Miami, the Dolphins are a
sometimes unsteady mu of the
old with the inexperienced. Ten
year center Jun Langer will be
placed on injured reserve
tonight because of a knee in-
jury. and veteran linemen Larry
Little and Mike Current both
say they'll retire at season’s
end
Don Strock, 28. will start at
quarterback replacing Bob
Griese. 34. who was benched

"I'm sorry that I will not have
an opportunity to lake pan in
the realization of that dream."
Wilkinson added "I feel that
progress has been made I think
we were very close to being a
contending team.”
The firing of the 63-year-old
Wilkinson was announced at a
news conference three games
before the collegiate coaching
legend was to have completed
his second pro season
"I have determined to take
immediate action ..in what I
consider to be the best interest
of the football team,” said
Cards’ owner Bill Bidwill, who
named director of pro personnel
Larry Wilson an interim re-
placement.
"This decision was made
when it became apparent Coach
Wilkinson and I had opposite
positions on the subject of our
program for the remainder of
the season."
Bidwill labeled Wilkinson’s
refusal to use backup Steve Pi
sarkiewicz, "our quarterback of
the future," as the "catalyst"
to the final breach.
The two met Monday to con-
fer over the owner's request,
said Bidwill. "I suggested that
he play Pisarkiewicz, and he
indicated he did not intend to.
"He seemed to think that Pi-
sarkiewicz could do the job. He
probably had a reason, but I
wasn't told it."
Bidwill indicated the two also
had other differences in matters
of personnel but declined to be
specific, noting that "I'd prefer
not to at this time."
"I didn't look at it that way."
Wilkinson responded when
asked if Bidwill’s request to use
Pisarkiewicz on Sunday against
the San Francisco 9ers was an
ultimatum.
Wilkinson, a .ormer colle-
gute coaching legend at Okla-
homa. was a surprise choice to
coach St. Louis as he was lured
out of a 15-year retirement to
succeed Don Coryell in March.
1978.
He guided the Cardinals to a
6-10 record last fall. This year,
the team has lost six of its last
seven games. It has a 3-10
record and little chance of es-
caping last place in the National
Conference East.
Wilkinson said his plans, oth-
er than remaining in St. Louis
for the time being, were in-
definite — particularly in re-
spect to further coaching.
Bidwill said Wilson, a 41-
year-old NFL Hall of Famer. will
direct the team only through the
remainder of the 1979 season
and then return to the front
office.
Pisarkiewicz joined a majority
of St. Louis players who de-
clined to discuss their reactions
to the firing.
