My goodness. The 2 grandchildren part makes it sound like a REALLY long time as you graduated from college over that span too.

Here's the playoff records for all teams from 1991-2018 (playoff record over last 3 seasons in parentheses)

Colts: 15-16 (1-1)
49ers: 14-11
Seahawks: 13-12 (1-2)
Giants: 11-8 (0-1)
Panthers: 9-8 (0-1)
Saints: 9-9 (2-2)
Falcons: 9-11 (3-2) 
Bills: 8-8  (0-1) - 3rd longest streak, at 21 seasons
Chargers: 8-10 (1-1)
Rams: 8-6 (2-2)
Jets: 7-8 
Oilers/Titans: 7-10 (1-1)
Vikings: 7-14 (1-1)
Jaguars: 7-7 (2-1)
Cardinals: 6-5 
Redskins: 6-6 
Raiders: 5-6 (0-1) 
Buccaneers: 5-6 
Dolphins: 5-10 (0-1)
Chiefs: 5-13 (1-2)
Bears: 4-7 (0-1)
Texans: 3-5 (1-2) - two wins over Bengals + Oak with no QB
Browns: 1-2 - streak is now at 22 seasons
Lions: 1-9 (0-1) - their streak is only 1 year shorter than ours
Bengals: 0-7 (the streak is now up to 29 seasons)

-----------------------

- 23 teams have been to a Super Bowl. 72% of the league
- Every team besides the Browns, Bengals and Lions has won at least 3 playoff games
- 11 teams have won at least 11 playoff games
- 27 teams have at least 5 playoff wins, which is how many the Bengals have in their 52 year history
- 14 teams have been to multiple Super Bowls 
- 15 teams have won a Super Bowl

-----------------------

The only teams to not play in a Super Bowl during this span are:

Jets
Dolphins
Browns
Bengals
Texans
Jaguars
Chiefs
Lions
Vikings

(this hasn't changed in the last 3 years, although the Jaguars and Chiefs have narrowly missed making the Super Bowl)

The fact that our most recent playoff win came against a team that hasn't even existed since 1996 says a lot.

I think of time like this, too. The Bengals haven't won a playoff game in 29 years. That same time frame from 1990 puts us in 1961, when JFK was alive and no one had heard of the Beatles.

Even worse than us, the Lions have won a single playoff game between today and when I Love Lucy was still making new episodes.

Gasoline was $1.14 per gallon

Lines were all the way out the door at the video store. 

There were still photo developing shops on every street corner.

The Reds had just won the World Series.
