The helmet color was Columbia blue with a white derrick from 1960 through 1965, silver with a Columbia blue derrick from 1966 through 1971, and Columbia blue with a white and scarlet derrick from 1972 through 1974, before changing to a white helmet with a Columbia blue derrick beginning in 1975 and lasting the remainder of the team's time in Houston. Oilers jerseys were always Columbia blue for home and white for away. The Houston Oilers' main colors were Columbia blue and white, with scarlet trim, while their logo was a simple derrick. For the rest of the Oilers' time in Houston, however, they compiled losing seasons in almost every other year.

The Oilers were a consistent playoff team from 1987 to 1993, an era that included both of the team's only division titles ( 19), as well as the dubious distinction of being on the losing end of the largest comeback in NFL history. From 1978 to 1980, the Oilers, led by Bum Phillips and in the midst of the Luv Ya Blue campaign, appeared in the 19 AFC Championship Games, but lost both. The Oilers appeared in the 1962 AFL Championship, losing in double overtime to their in-state rivals, the Dallas Texans (now the Kansas City Chiefs) they also won the AFL East Division title in 1967 and qualified for the AFL Playoffs in 1969, both times losing to the Oakland Raiders. The Houston Oilers were the first champions of the American Football League, winning the 19 contests, but they never won another championship. For the majority of their time in Houston, the team played their home games at the Astrodome Jeppesen Stadium and Rice Stadium hosted the team for their first eight years. Throughout their existence the team was owned by Bud Adams. The Oilers competed in the AFL's East division – along with the Buffalo Bills, the New York Jets and the Boston Patriots – before the merger, after which they joined the newly formed AFC Central. The team won two AFL championships before joining the NFL as part of the AFL–NFL merger in the late 1960s. The Oilers began play in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League (AFL).
