how many super bowls did the houston oilers win
History of the Houston Oilers
The 1979 season was a near rerun of 1978 as the Oilers finished 11 -- 5 with Campbell gaining 1600 yards in the regular season , and again earned a wild card spot . Beating the Broncos in the first home playoff game in Houston in over a decade , the Oilers ' performance suffered with injuries to Campbell , Pastorini and Burroughs . They did manage to edged past the high - flying San Diego of Dan Fouts in the divisional round , partly thanks to the play of Vernon Perry ( 4 INTs and a blocked FG ) as well as the outstanding line coached by Joe Bugel . The Oilers returned to the AFC Championship game for the second year in a row , only to get knocked down by the Pittsburgh Steelers again , in spite of a terrific effort by Dan Pastorini -- The Steelers had shut the ailing Campbell down , yet Pastorini nearly succeeded with the modest receiving corps of Mike Renfro , Rich Caster , and Ronnie Coleman venturing into the Steelers Hall of Fame defense . A controversial out - of - bounds call nullified a touchdown by wide receiver Mike Renfro resulting in a 27 -- 13 victory for Pittsburgh . Once again , after a tough loss , the Oilers returned to their then adoring fans who packed the Astrodome for an impromptu pep - rally for the second year in a row .
