When Did the Houston Texans Last Make the Playoffs? A Tale of Woe (Mostly)
Let's talk about the Houston Texans. No, not about their star players, their dazzling new stadium, or their questionable fashion choices (we'll save that for another day). Let's talk about something that's been about as common as a snowstorm in Texas: their playoff appearances.
The Playoff Drought: A How-To Guide
Believe it or not, there was a time when the Houston Texans were actually good. Like, really good. They were the cool kids of the NFL, you know? But that was a while ago. Let's break down this drought into easy-to-understand terms:
- The Golden Years: There was a brief, shining moment when the Texans actually knew what playoffs were. It was like a mirage in the desert – beautiful, but ultimately fleeting.
- The Desert Years: This is where we are now. It's a barren wasteland of missed opportunities, questionable coaching decisions, and fans who are starting to question their life choices.
How Long Has This Been Going On?
You might be wondering, "Okay, smart guy, but how long has it actually been?" Well, buckle up, because this is where it gets a bit depressing for Texans fans. The last time the Houston Texans graced us with their playoff presence was in 2019. Yes, you read that right. 2019. That's like, a century ago in NFL terms.
The Silver Lining (If You Squint)
Now, before you Texans fans completely give up on life, there is a silver lining. You’re building a new stadium, which is always exciting. Plus, you get to enjoy some truly epic meltdown moments from other teams. And hey, maybe, just maybe, there's hope on the horizon. Or maybe not. Who knows?
How to Cope With Being a Texans Fan
If you’re a Texans fan and you’re starting to feel a bit lost, don't worry, you're not alone. Here are a few tips:
- How to find a new hobby: There are plenty of other things to do besides watch football. Try knitting, birdwatching, or learning a new language.
- How to avoid talking about the Texans: This one is tough, but it’s important for your mental health.
- How to prepare for the next draft: It’s always fun to dream about the next big thing, right?
- How to find a therapist: Just kidding (kind of).
So, there you have it. The Houston Texans and their unfortunate relationship with the playoffs. Here's hoping for better days ahead!
