And the Texans, of course, have given fans plenty of despair and disappointment through their existence.

But all that was forgotten when T.J. Yates hit Kevin Walter in the end zone with two seconds left to clinch a gutsy win for the Texans. It was forgotten even more when, shortly afterward, a Tennessee loss meant the Texans would be hosting a playoff game.

The players celebrated, with what we're sure is Gatorade in Solo cups, if these pictures from the Twitter feeds of the team and Connor Barwin are any indication.
