Chiefs stun Cowboys on 63-yard miracle to win
Kansas City coach Paul Wiggin called it a freak play after Andy Hamilton snared a 63-yard reception that set up the winning TD with 45 seconds left in an exhibition. Tony Adams connected for a four-yard score to Billy Mastes. Len Dawson shined, throwing 176 yards and a TD to Larry Brunson, while Jan Stenerud added four field goals. The Chiefs improved to 1-1 as Dallas dropped to 0-2 with a late fumble return and a Staubach TD pass helping their cause.
