This is the only answer. They went 0-16. But the Bucs went 0-26. Besides, this years Lions team is worse than the 0-16 team, I don't give a s*** if they have 4 alleged wins. They are far worse.

I recall the Red Sox in the mid-late '90s being absolutely worthless. I also recall the Patriots in the late '80s to early/mid '90s being absolutely worthless too.

Three I can think of:
The 1998 Season of the Florida Marlins after the team won the World Series the previous season. A majority of the players that made up that team were gone by the end of the season, and despite getting both Mike Piazza and Todd Zeile that year, neither one worked out too good for the Marlins.
The 2007-2008 Miami Heat, a team that went 15-67 and was plagued by injuries to D-Wade and Alonzo Mourning. Not to mention the Heat traded Shaq for Shawn Marion, which did help get Shaq to a playoff-bound team, but Marion was not an effective Heat player. Also, Miami ended up not having the 1st Pick in the 2008 draft, but the Bulls somehow got it. And to think, we could have had D-Rose playing with D-Wade at the time. However, five years later, I'm not too worried about the future of the Heat as I was back then.
And the 2012 Miami Marlins. New name, new stadium, new uniforms, big-time acquisitions, and somehow, a worse record (69-93) than last year (72-90). Guillen's big mouth didn't help us at all, and the players Miami acquired during the off-season performed below expectations. And now, all of the acquired players are gone from the team.

Reyes played to his career numbers which still put him in the top 5 SS in the NL.

It took 3 pages for a mention of last year's Bobcats team? Man they were hopeless and then some.

Umm, while they suck this year, no they are not. The 0-16 Lions didn't have maybe the best player in the league on their team and Stafford, while having a bad year, is way better then Kitna or whoever the hell was the QB that season.

While Megatron is an extremely awesome wide receiver, calling him the best player in the league is a stretch when their division alone has Adrian Peterson and Aaron Rodgers.
This year's Lions team is a lot more talented than their record indicates. But they're undisciplined and immature. Their head coach is awful for those reasons. They need a Tom Coughlin-type of guy to be a disciplinarian and I can see them being a playoff threat on a regular basis if that happens.

The Gold Coast Seagulls rugby league team
Here is the dazzling record of the team in it's short existence:
1989: 7 wins, 1 draw 14 losses (placed 14th out of 16 teams)
1990: 4 wins, 18 losses (15th out of 16)
1991: 2 wins, 1 draw, 19 losses (16th out of 16)
1992: 6 wins, 1 draw, 15 losses (16th out of 16)
1993: 1 win, 21 losses (16th out of 16) - club was also fined for breaching the salary cap. Yes they were over the salary cap in a year that they won 1 out of 22 games!
1994: 5 wins, 1 draw, 16 losses (15th out of 16)
1995: 4 wins, 1 draw, 17 losses (17th out of 20 teams)
Then the club folded. I remember it so vividly because in 2 of those seasons they were the only team to finish with a worse record than my team.

In the late 80's and early 90's, I saw quite a few bad Phillies teams.

Umm, while they suck this year, no they are not. The 0-16 Lions didn't have maybe the best player in the league on their team and Stafford, while having a bad year, is way better then Kitna or whoever the hell was the QB that season. Megatron was on the 0 - 16 team, and he had 7 more TD's than this season, and a better YPC average. What makes this years team worse is that the expectations were higher, and once they were officially eliminated the team basically said they were giving up and concentrating on getting CJ the recieving record. The 08 team fought to the bitter end. Thats why this years team is worse. EDIT: I'm not saying this years team is the worst I've ever seen, just that I personally think this years team is worse than 08 based on what I said. As a longtime Lions fan, it hurts to have to say things like this at all. I love my team, I don't hate any of the others although I obviously root against them. But I have to be honest with what I think, so many times I'll rip into my team when it's deserved... And it's been deserved a lot. And to whoever said the Lions wasted Barry Sanders... You may wanna take a look at Barry's postseason numbers. They are nothing to write home about, so you can put a lot of that "waste" on Barry himself. He's one of the greatest ever obviously, just not really in playoff games.

This is the only answer. They went 0-16. They also had Barry Sanders for his entire professional career and never got the guy a ring.

As I said, a good deal of that is due to his subpar playoff performances. And he had several chances, as the Lions had plenty of playoff chances in the 90's. People are acting like Barry never made the playoffs. You have to remember that for the majority of Barry's career, the Cowboys, 49ers, and Packers were the NFC juggernauts. It was pretty hard for any of the other NFC teams to compete with them.

In the '80s, it was easy to find the Green Bay Packers in the standings: just start at the bottom, usually tied with Tampa Bay at 4-12 or 6-10. ("The Battle of the Bays" usually ended up 1-1.) And more often than not, they'd lose to the Bears (kinda like how the Pack are beating them like a drum now). They couldn't even win the fights they'd have with Chicago. Forrest Gregg was a Lombardi disciple who played for the man in their '60s hey-day, and he just brought thug football to the team - and there are no thugs in Green Bay. That's why 1989 was such a huge deal, they won 10 games for the first time in over 15 years.
The White Sox were pretty bad in the '80s as well, save for '83. 1988-89 stand out as a couple of years where I'm really hard-pressed to even name half of the starters. (Current executive VP of something-or-other Kenny Williams was at 3B.) They didn't draw crap as they still played in that refurbished landfill called Comiskey Park. Nobody wanted to go there, and the attendance was lousy because of it. I can tell you they traded Harold Baines just so the man could go to a good team. (Harold & 2B Fred Manrique for SS Scott Fletcher, OF Sammy Sosa and prospect P Wilson Alvarez.)

Ugh, just the Pre-Lockout (Previous lockout, not current lockout) Penguins in general. 2003 and 2004. Bad, bad teams. Every NHL-level player had been traded away or sold off because the team was completely bankrupt (to the point where since ownership owed more money to Mario Lemieux than they could afford to pay him, they just handed ownership of the team directly to him (he later brought in an investment group headed by Ron Burkle to co-own).
Revolving door of AHL goaltenders (and refusing to play their high draft pick because incentives on his contract would have kicked in), low-level no-hope prospects on every line (aside from Ryan Malone), a pedestrian two-way defenseman as their leading scorer (with only about 40 points)... lost 17 games in a row at one point...
They were beyond bad.
