Show Sunday. November Cards Battle Palcons - Hard-Luc- k By Uaitet Ptcm btenaaeaal dinals San Francisco Detroit and Los Angeles. The Falcons came from 14 points behind to beat Buffalo 4 last Sund day, and their defense, against the rush, heU the Bills' Joe Cribbs to 31 yards. Quarterback Steve Bartkowski threw for 193 yards in that game, and needs only 88 against St. Louis to reach the 10,000-yar- d passing plateau for his career. Bartkowski, enjoying his best season as a pro, says he has learned from the adversity he's been through in previous seasons. "It's tough on a kid when he is hailed as the savior, so to speak, of a franchise," recalled Bartkowski of his first few NFL seasons. "He's 21 yean old and has all this money and wealth and fame dumped on him. "As I look back now, the adversity was one of the most important and probably the best tilings thit happened to me. I guess one of the biggest things I've learned is that you're playing against the cream of the crop every week. There are no walkovers in this league." Hanifan feels Bartkowski is one of the primary reasons for Atlanta's success this year. "Atlanta has a very aggressive defense and hase played aggressively all the way around, said Hanifan. "They have striking power offensively with Bartkowski. He is having a fine year and has a great arm along with some superior receivers." The St Louis Cardinals have won just three games this season but have come up with superior efforts against the best teams in the NFL. After dropping their first three one in overtime, the Sines, including 4 defeated Philadelphia g to hand the NFC Eagles their only loss of the season. And last week, the hardluck Cardinals saw a four-poilead evaporate into a 4 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on a fourth touchdown pass from down, Danny White to Tony Hill with 45 seconds left in the game. The Cardinals will be faced with a difficult task once again Surday when they host the Atlanta Falcom , tied with Los Angeles (6-for first place in the NFC West. But St. Louis coach Jim Hanifan Is still having a tough time digesting last week's loss. "It's a tough pill to swallow but everyone experiences something like this in life," said Hanifan of the Dallas game. "We have to become stronger because of it It's difficult to set it aside and not let it affect you in your next encounter, but you can't allow it to linger. Part of my job will be to make them forget it." If the Cardinals fail to get the Dallas game out of their systems, it could be a long afternoon. Atlanta has won five of its last six games with three of those victories coming over teams that beat the Car 27-2- 28-ya-rd - This is the NEW YORK (UPI) week of the best against the worst in the National Football League. The Philadelphia Eagles, who own face the best record in the NFL at the only winleSs club in the league, the New Orleans Saints. The Saints are tying the worst losing streak in their history. Philadelphia has won five straight games and is clinging to a one-galead over Dallas in the NFC East. The 1 start is the best for the Eagles since they were 1 in 1960, the year Philadelphia last won the NFL title. The only thing the Saints are vying for is the right to the No. 1 selection in the NFL draft next spring. Their closest competition at this stage comes from the New York Giants, who have won only one game, and the New York Jets, with only two victories.
