gregcook68 Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 I don't normally spend time researching this kind of stuff, but since I am dog sitting my son's Beagle, and thanks to pro-football-reference.com for making this search relatively easy, I decided to dive in.I've researched all the old AFL/Expansion teams that have been in existence around the time of the Bengals, in 1968, or after.Here's how the playoff records play out.I have listed them from the teams with the most playoff wins to the least.Teams / Playoff Record / Super Bowls WonPATS/RAIDERS 25-18 3 SBs (Ironic that they both have the exact same playoff stats)BRONCOS 20-18 2 SBsDOLPHINS 20-20 2 SBs RAVENS 14-7 2 SBBILLS 14-15TITANS 14-19 (This record dates back to the Houston Oilers birthed in 1960)JETS 12-13 1 SBSEAHAWKS 12-12 1 SBCHARGERS 11-11CHIEFS 8-15 1 SBSAINTS 7-9 1 SBFALCONS 7-12 PANTHERS 6-5 (They birthed in 1993)BUCS 6-9 (They birthed in 1976)JAGUARS 5-6 (They birthed in 1995)BENGALS 5-12 (They birthed in 1968)TEXANS 2-2 (They birthed in 2002) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Nice list. I would only make two changes:Toss the Ravens. I don't care what fiction the NFL dreamed up, that's the Browns. Then beneath the Texans there ought to be a listing of FACTORY OF SADNESS 0-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think one of the roots of the problem goes back to PBs ego led decision to choose Tiger Johnson over Bill Walsh as HC when PB stepped down. Walsh could have made a difference.Can't go back though. Hope to roll with what we've got! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earendil Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 I find it interesting that only 5 of those teams are over .500... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjakq27 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 1413046450' post='418903']Nice list. I would only make two changes:Toss the Ravens. I don't care what fiction the NFL dreamed up, that's the Browns. Then beneath the Texans there ought to be a listing of FACTORY OF SADNESS 0-1.Agree. The Ravens are the Browns 1.0 and the expansions team in Cleveland, circa 1999, are the Browns 2.0. Sad that Modell left Cleveland for financial reasons, won a Super Bowl then sold the team for financial reasons. Denver, Oakland, Boston/NE and Miami have obviously been the most successful of the group. I would be interested in seeing the list of the old nfl teams during that era. Giants, Niners, Steelers and Cowboys would be my guesses for the most successful. Lots of futility after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
