Freezer Bowl

We had also blown them out in the regular season.  At that time the Chargers were considered one of the best teams in the league.  We had beaten the Bills earlier that year, but it was a very close game and we were at home.  It seemed to me that we were not being considered a serious Super Bowl contender until we blew out the Chargers on the road later in the season.

I remember Merlin Olsen, who was calling the game on tv, saying that the Chargers had no right to gripe about the cold because if they had beaten the Bengals at their home that season that playoff game would have been played in San Diego (and about a 100 degrees warmer).
