a A 5 5. nt 41 recording a 19-14 triumph on the Dolphins' field. This year, each team has a 1-1 mark and leads in important statistical categories. New York, led by Namath, tops the AFL in passing and total offense. Miami boats the circuit's best pass defense.

The Dolphins' opposition has averaged only 63 yards passing in the first two games. "'Denver completed just six passes and although Kansas City threw only 13 times, they completed only seven," Wilson noted. Miami dropped a 24-0 decision to Kansas City last week after an opening game victory over the Broncos. San Diego Undefeated New York, which beat Denver 38-24 a week ago after losing to Buffalo, will be without fullback Snell for at least six weeks. He underwent surgery Friday on his left knee.

He suffered a torn cartilage in the game against the Bills. The game between the Chiefs and Raiders, each 2-0, shapes up as a defensive struggle. Kansas City comes off its shutout victory over Miami while Oakland rested last week after walloping Denver 51-0 and Boston 35-7. San Diego, the circuit's only other unbeaten team at 2-0, now has a healthy Lance Alworth for the opposition to contend with. Alworth climbed right back among the leaders in receiving when he caught 10 passes for 121 yards and one touchdown in a 13-3 triumph over Houston last week.

Buffalo, 1-3, suffered the lirst shutout in its history a week ago in a 23-0 loss to Boston. Despite their loss to the Jets, the Broncos staged a fine offensive showing last week as Steve Tensi connected on 14 of 30 passes for 256 yards and two touchdowns. In addition, Floyd Little had his best day from scrimmage, gaining 55 yards in 10 carries. Houston leads in the By Ben Olan Associated Press Sports Writer The Miami Dolphins are worried about Joe Namath, but don't have to be about Matt Snell, as they prepare to meet the New York Jets today in a battle for the Eastern Division lead in the American Football League. The game between the unbeaten Oakland Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs, co-leaders in the Western Division, also highlights the day's program.

The San Diego Chargers play the Buffalo Bills while Denver takes on Houston in the other games. The Boston Patriots are not scheduled. "If Namath gets a hot hand, like he did against us last year. New York will be rough," said Dolphins' coach George Wilson, referring to the brilliant Jets' quarterback.
