It was way before my time, but I believe the AFL was considered an inferior product to the NFL.

Tell that to the '68 Colts and '69 Vikings...

The Jets and the Chiefs winning Super Bowls III & IV, were instrumental in the two leagues merging as they showed that they were not as inferior as assumed. Namath played a significant part in that...and his best years in the AFL were in those latter years of the 60's when the AFL teams were closing the gap and positioning themselves to win Super Bowls...
