A few things to notice:

First, Dawson looks like a skinny little shrimp compared to today's players. Look at those legs. They look like toothpicks.

Third, he's smoking a cigarette.

Dawson's lack of strength and diet may have caught up with him in the game. The Chiefs got demolished, 35-10, by the Green Bay Packers.
