The Jacksonville Jaguars clinched a playoff berth with a win over the Houston Texans on Sunday.

It marks the team's first postseason appearance since 2007. Since Shad Khan bought the team in November 2011, the Jaguars had never won more than five games.

"I've been through life when I was a laughingstock, whatever business I was in -- auto parts, what have you -- and then you have to stay with it, and success comes," Khan told ESPN. "It's a story of perseverance."

The Jaguars could also win their first division title since 1999.

"What a feeling," Khan said. "It's unbelievable. To win it and win it the way we did today [is] mind-blowing. ... I'm always an optimistic guy and certainly whatever I was hoping for, it's that and more. I think it's been a long time coming, and I'm so grateful to be here and have the city support us."
