Has There Been a Worse Non-Expansion NFL Team?

I've been an NFL fan for nearly 50 years and I can't think of a worse non-expansion team.

 

It will be a miracle if this woeful team wins a single game.

 

The 1976 Tampa Bay team was 0-14, but it was an expansion team.

 

The 1990 Patriots had the worst offense and second worst defense, but at least it won one game.

 

The 1991 Colts had the fewest points (143) and fewest TDs (14) in a 16-game season, but at least it won one game.

 

The closest I can recall is the 1980 Saints who were 1-15, but at least they had Archie Manning.

 

I know the 2008 Lions were winless, but some of their losing scores (12-10, 28-21, 25-17, 27-23, and 20-16) demonstrate they were at least competitive.

 

Not only are the Jags winless, but this team has lost games by scores of 28-2, 45-17, 37-3, 34-20, 35-19, 24-6, and 42-10.  Only the Raiders game was remotely competitive.

 

This team reminds me more and more of the 1980 Saints and it was only another 7 years until the Saints appeared in a playoff game and another 10 years before the Saints won a playoff game.

 

I hate to say this, but I can honestly see it taking this team other 7 years before it appears in the playoffs again and another decade before it wins a playoff game.

This team, folks, is that bad.

 

The best thing this team has going for it with respect to staying in Jacksonville is that I can't believe another city would want to inherit a team this bad.
