The 1994 Baltimore Football Club season was the first in the history of the Baltimore CFL franchise. Initially intended to be named the Baltimore CFL Colts, the team was forced to adopt a generic name after Robert Irsay successfully enjoined the team from using any name that might associate with the former Baltimore Colts, which he had controversially moved to Indiana 11 years prior. The team became the first American-based CFL team to play in the Grey Cup, but lost to the hometown BC Lions on a last second field goal.
