Basically this shows that fans from other NFL cities experience atleast some playoff success. The exceptions being Cincy, Detroit, and Cleveland. (Ohio is the football void of the world for pro sports.)


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

Patriots: 33-13 (8-1)
Packers: 21-17 (2-1)
Steelers: 20-16 (2-2)
Eagles: 16-14 (4-1)
Ravens: 15-10 (0-1)
Broncos: 15-11
Cowboys: 15-12 (1-2)
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)

Pete and Repeat are sitting on a fence.

Staggering that the Pats have 33 playoff wins over that span and Steelers 20. That's A LOT.

We have 5 total in franchise history!

And the Bengals made the playoffs 5 years in a row and Model Model was written insinuating that other teams were copying them!

Have you heard about Nick Vigil and Preston Brown playing in a nickle package?

Pretty sad the coaches couldnt figure that out.

We just put in a 5th lineman when teams are running outside on us!

More staggering that they've played 46 playoff games in the timeframe we've won zero. Our team...fun team to be a fan of! 

It takes Saturn 29 Earth years to orbit the Sun. Takes the Bengals longer than 29 years to win a playoff game.

On that note... Congratulations Saturn for being faster than the Bengals.

To add insult to injury, Saturn also has more rings. 

I posted this in a similar thread a few years ago.

Since the Bengals last playoff win I have:
Graduated from college
Got married
Had 3 kids
Got divorced
Re-married
Had 2 grandchildren
Had 9 different full time jobs
Bought 12 cars (that I can remember)
Started my own business
Bought and sold a condo
Bought and sold a house
Bought another house

What is the business you started and any tips other than jump in and close your eyes

Cell phones looked like this:


Seinfeld was still a week away from starting a 12-episode second season, where it would finish a meh 45th in the ratings.  GHW Bush still had the majority of his presidential term left.  Direct TV wouldn't exist for three-plus years.   Vanilla Ice was huge and had just started dating Madonna.  And on and on....

Had we landed on the moon yet?

I don't know...it seems like so long ago.

Or, did we ever?

C'mon man. We've seen this thread before.
Bengals can't do anything right now about the past.
We all know the core of the issue: Mike Brown has a philosophy of how this franchise should be run and he will not waver from that.
Like it or leave it, but no need to keep posting a thread on this topic every year.
