When the original Colts called it quits in Baltimore, the league sold the team's assets to a group from Dallas who formed the Texans. They used a similar color scheme to the one that would later be used by the Cowboys and played a Thanksgiving day game. The team was so bad, and fans so disinterested, the game was played in Akron, Ohio. That Thanksgiving game would be the team's only win as they went 1-11 and folded after the season.

In 1960, the city was awarded the Cowboys, shortly after Lamar Hunt announced the formation of football's American league, with a team in his hometown to be called the Dallas Texans. Both teams started shared the Cotton Bowl, and while the Texans were more completive on the field, the Cowboys drew more fans. After being courted by several city's, the team moved to Kansas City in 1963 and became the Chiefs.
