Chiefs Over Dolphins 41-0 as Dawson Ad Libs Atop AFL
Kansas City's Len Dawson delivered five touchdown passes including a 77 yard strike for a 41-0 win over Miami. Denver's Scarpitto miscue on a fourth down punt helped Buffalo edge Denver 17-16. San Diego tied Boston 31-31 as Hadl sparked the rally. New York upset Oakland 27-14 on Saturday night. Dawson, AFL's all time leading passer, used a razzle dazzle opening TD and explained a broken play where Garrett failed to complete before he threw.
