This article ranks the eight AFC South championship teams won by the Houston Texans. It examines each team's talent and potential to advance in the playoffs, acknowledging both the celebratory wins and the disappointing losses.
In this day and age where it seems like every opinion is polarizing and nitpicked to death, I think we can all agree on this — winning is fun. Whether it's at work, or involving your favorite sports team, or even a board game with a relative, we all love to win. It's exhilarating! The Houston Texans , over the last 14 seasons have done more winning than losing.
There were certainly some dark times — 2-14 in 2013, losing Deshaun Watson to an ACL tear in 2017, and everything having to so with 2020, 2021, or 2022. Those were brutal times.

They lost 30-0 in the wild card round.This was a better version of the Texans the next year, ironically with J.J. Watt out for the season with a back injury. This was the year that Clowney came into his own, and Whitney Mercilus had his best season. They were able to beat a Raiders team skippered by Connor Cook at home before getting thrashed by the Patriots in the second round.Last season's team was fun, had the best quarterback play of any of the Texans playoff teams, outside of maybe the 2019 Watson-led team. However, inexperience and the complete lack of a running game led to a blowout loss to the Ravens in the divisional round.I'll group the two Deshaun Watson playoff teams togethe
