  • Eagles' Team Travel
    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn PHILADELPHIA EAGLES Team History The Eagles have been a Philadelphia institution since their beginning in 1933 when a syndicate headed by the late Bert Bell and Lud Wray purchased the former Frankford Yellowjackets franchise for $2,500. In 1941, a unique swap took place between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh that saw the clubs trade home cities with Alexis Thompson becoming the Eagles owner. In 1943, the Philadelphia and Pittsburgh franchises combined for one season due to the manpower shortage created by World War II. The team was called both Phil-Pitt and the Steagles. Greasy Neale of the Eagles and Walt Kiesling of the Steelers were co-coaches and the team finished 5-4-1. Counting the 1943 season, Neale coached the Eagles for 10 seasons and he led them to their first significant successes in the NFL. Paced by such future Pro Football Hall of Fame members as running back Steve Van Buren, center-linebacker Alex Wojciechowicz, end Pete Pihos and beginning in 1949, center-linebacker Chuck Bednarik, the Eagles dominated the league for six seasons. They finished second in the NFL Eastern division in 1944, 1945 and 1946, won the division title in 1947 and then scored successive shutout victories in the 1948 and 1949 championship games. A rash of injuries ended Philadelphia’s era of domination and, by 1958, the Eagles had fallen to last place in their division. That year, however, saw the start of a rebuilding program by a new coach, Buck Shaw, and the addition of quarterback Norm Van Brocklin in a trade with the Los Angeles Rams.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. 125 Years of Fordham Football Football got off to a shaky start at Fordham in 1882. Uniforms were bought, goals put up, boundaries drawn and practice was begun. Seven games were played and Fordham won six of them. The teams played were Seton Hall (2 games), St. Francis Xavier College (3 games), New York Latin School, and the American Athletic Club. But according to the Fordham College Monthly the team fell apart “owing to the want of a little push and patience and to the disposition of a few to turn everything into ridicule.” (October, 1883, p. 110) In 1883, however, a new team was formed, and football became a continuous presence at Fordham. It was not until the 1920’s and ‘30’s that Fordham became a national football power. In 1927 Frank William Cavanaugh came to Fordham as Head Coach. He had served in World War I and was nearly blinded by shrapnel wounds, but he was tough and determined.

  • When the Eagles Flew High
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 19, No. 3 (1997) WHEN THE EAGLES FLEW HIGH By Stanley Grosshandler To have one top flight center is a real luxury to any NFL team today; to have three, well that is just unheard of. One team, the 1949 Philadelphia Eagles had such a prominent trio in Alex Wojciechowicz, Chuck Bednarik, and Vic Lindskog. Alex and Chuck made the Hall of Fame, while Vic was voted the best center in the league in 1951. Wojie, the elder statesman of the trio, had been a two-time All-American at Fordham where he centered the legendary "Seven Rocks of Granite." One story had it that he went to a coach and asked him if he should change his name so that people might have an easier time remembering him. The coach replied, "Son the way you play nobody will forget you." Alex entered the NFL in 1938 with the Lions, going to the Eagles in 1946. He retired in 1951 after playing parts of three decades and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1968. The second Hall of Fame pivot man, Chuck Bednarik, came to the Eagles in 1949. He was their bonus draft choice from Penn where he too had been an All-American. He made All-League eight times and as late as 1960 was playing both ways on the championship Eagle team. The last player to do this, his jersey hangs in the Hall of Fame as a tribute to this feat. A bruising tackler, he was often quoted as saying he enjoyed hitting and any player who didn't should not be out there.

The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope.
