Chiefs And Nationals Are “Comeback Team Champions”

The current baseball and pro football champions, the Washington Nationals nee Montreal Expos and the Kansas City Chiefs nee Dallas Texans have some similar history and links.

Most relevant, each as a current champion staged numerous post-season comebacks, a total of seven (the Chiefs in all 3 post-season games and the Nationals four times in games facing elimination from the ‘offs), all of a significant margin in games facing elimination.

The last and only other World title before the one gained in Supe 54 for the Chiefs was in 1969, the year/season the Nationals franchise began play as the Montreal Expos.

The Montreal Expos had some terrific players, including Gary Carter, pictured above.
