Everyone forgets nowadays that the Bills were 1 win away from Superbowl I.

I always wondered how the Bills would have fared against Lombardi's Packers in Super Bowl I. The 1964-66 Bills were basically an NFL team playing in the AFL. Strong running game and stout defense with a clutch quarterback (Kemp).
Jerry Kramer reported that the Packers were very confident going against the Chiefs to the point that they were snickering at the films.
RIP Mr Dawson. Super Bowl IV cemented the quality of the AFL.
You are now reunited with Coach Stram. You can again run 65 cross power trap.
