 Coached by Herb Treat, Boston's first professional football team had been in financial difficulty from the beginning, having played only six games before folding in November 1926.Its lack of stars and lack of offense (only three points per game) doomed the franchise as the team failed to score a point in either of its two home games in a nearly empty stadium.Boston would wait until 1932 before it received another professional football franchise— the NFL’s Boston Braves, later briefly renamed the Redskins, and the Washington Redskins since 1937.
