Hopefully this season is the start of an extended dose of losing to test the fan mettle for several of the above mentioned teams. Maybe the only city more in need of a couple of decades of futility than Indianapolis is Green Bay. Theirs is coming, too.

Agreed, though I remember a 25 year run of futility for the Packers.  Though I know Steelers history involved a forty year stretch of futility, I was only 3 when that stretch ended.  While they have had the occasional down year since then, they have never been paper bag on head...tank for blank bad. In. I would say very few alive today actually remember that 40 year stretch.

I would say if any fan base deserves a prolonged drought, it's the Steelers, though every team you listed deserve prolonged suckage.

Yeah, 45 years ago they were a bad team, they've been a contender in every decades since then. I'd like to see them not win another AFC central title until 2050. I just can't forgive the Packers because they've had back to back hall of fame QBs. Their fan base is worshipped, but hasn't been tested for decades, and 30 years ago they were playing home games out of market like the Jags have been doing recently. It's easy to keep a waiting list when you're winning. Let's see how twenty-plus years of only occasionally sniffing a winning record affects it.

I think the Texans might have a long term problem on their hands with a seriously inept owner who inherited the team.


I hope so, I can't stand texas.
