50 Greatest QB-WR Duos in NFL History

15. Len Dawson and Otis Taylor

Where: Kansas City Chiefs

When: 1965-1975

Len Dawson and Otis Taylor were teammates for the Kansas City Chiefs from 1965-1975, and their success is unmatched in the history of this franchise.

Dawson led the then-Dallas Texans to an AFL Championship in 1962, but the fun really got started when Otis Taylor joined Dawson in Kansas City in 1965 after they moved from Texas.

Kansas City took part in Super Bowl I against the Green Bay Packers, only to lose to Bart Starr. However, a couple years later the Chiefs upended the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl IV, the last title of any kind for Kansas City.

In all, Kansas City finished with winning records in nine consecutive seasons, from 1965-1973, and these two were primary reasons for that.

Taylor caught 410 passes for more than 7,300 yards in his 11 seasons with Dawson in Kansas City. Dawson still remains the franchise's career leader in passing yards and finally joined the Hall of Fame in 1987 after being a finalist in 1982 and 1986.

Taylor is still waiting and will probably never get the call.
