ding, ding, ding, correct!
The Dallas Texans played in the NFL for one season only, 1952. They posted a 1-11 record. The only team they beat was the Chicago Bears, and that win came after the team had abandoned Dallas in favor of Akron as a location for home games even though they had kept the Dallas name. The team folded after the 1952 season. A 1953 expansion team, the Baltimore Colts, acquired many former Texan players, but the Colts do not claim any heritage from the Texans. Note that this was not the same Dallas Texans franchise as the 1960 AFL franchise that became the Kansas City Chiefs.
