Regardless of the result, the winner of the BAL-HOU game will break a 10+ Year Conf. Championship Appearance Drought.

The Baltimore Ravens haven’t appeared in an AFC Championship game since their Super Bowl run in 2012, 11 seasons ago.

The Houston Texans have never appeared in an AFC Championship game, and are currently playing their 22nd Season as a franchise.

The Ravens are in the midst of their longest wait as a franchise, (considering it’s only 11 years is frankly impressive, all things considered)

But Houston? Houston has been hurting for a droughtbreaker.

While the Lions and Commanders 32-year droughts are longer in terms of a single franchise droughts, Houston the city has been waiting since the 1979 season, when the Oilers made it.

A massive 44-year season drought, by far the longest for any active NFL city
