Philadelphia Eagles

The Frankford Yellow Jackets

ANSWER:

Technically, they've always been the Eagles. The Frankford Yellow Jackets had gone bankrupt and turned their franchise in to the NFL, and the Eagles' founders purchased that franchise from the league.

The NFL's Frankford Yellowjackets were awarded to a syndicate headed by Bert Bell and Lud Wray in 1933. Bell named the new Philadelphia team Eagles in honor of the symbol of the New Deal's National Recovery Act.

The Eagles won despite being outgained 401-296, with only 13 first downs to the Packers' 22. Chuck Bednarik tackled Jim Taylor on the final play of the game at the Eagles' eight yard line (Bednarik was the last Eagle between Taylor and the end zone), and remained atop Taylor for several seconds as the final seconds ticked off the clock, ensuring the Packers could not run another play. It would prove to be Packers' coach Vince Lombardi's sole career playoff loss as a coach, and is the Eagles' most recent championship.

Since 1984, when the curse of William Penn officially began, the top level-professional sports, i.e. MLB, NHL, NBA, NFL, teams of Philadelphia have gone 0-7 in championships in their respective sports. To describe the curse of William Penn, there was an unwritten agreement that no building shall be built higher than the hat on the Statue of William Penn that sits atop City Hall in the city of Brotherly Love. In 1984, a glass skyscraper topped the height of Mr. Penn's cap by 397 feet. The next year, the Flyers lost the Stanley Cup to the Edmonton Oilers, and have not won since.

The Frankford Yellow Jackets won the Philadelphia City title in 1922, then played non-conference games against established NFL teams in 1922-23, finishing the season with a record of 6-2-1. The team's success lead to the Frankford Athletic Association being offered an NFL franchise. They played under the name Yellow Jackets from 1924-1931, winning the NFL Championship in the 1926 season (awarded by record; there was no championship game until 1933).

1926 was the Yellow Jackets' only NFL championship. 1927 was a less-than-stellar year for the Jackets, due to a coaching change. They finished the season 6-9-3. Their record in 1928 was 11-3-2, placing them second in the league, behind the Providence Steam Roller. In 1929, the team record was 9-4-5, placing them third in the standings. 1930 was the beginning of the end for the Yellow Jackets, as they finished their season with an abysmal 6-13-1 record that included a 10-game losing streak. The team never finished the 1931 season. Plagued by financial problems caused by the Great Depression and lack of fan support, and forced to play the season as a travel team after a fire destroyed Frankford Stadium, the team finally collapsed. Their final game was against the Chicago Bears on October 26, 1931, a 13-12 loss.
