It would remind of me of that year where we started 1-7 and went on a run to possibly make the playoffs. We needed to win the last game and the redskins needed to beat the vikings. Well the redskins won the last game and of course we lost. If my memory is correct, we tried a long field goal in the end which ended up being blocked. That game hurt knowing that we would have made the playoffs at 8-8 and we were considered a team that no one wanted to play in the playoffs

I was at that game, it was against the Saints. So depressing. However before our last drive which resulted in a blocked 56 yard field goal attempt the whole stadium started cheering... Jake, Jake, Jake, Jake. That was a pretty cool moment. I believe it was also the last game Rickey was a reciever in Carolina.

God I have been disappointed so many times...

Might not even make top 10.

 

1. Kasay kicking off out of bounds in the Super Bowl.

2. Kerry Collins being a drunk washout, then leading the Giants (my dad's team) to a Super Bowl.

3. Trading a second round pick that eventually became the #33 overall pick for a FCS running QB, who would then be groomed as a failure of a slot receiver.

4. Delhomme meltdown against Arizona.

5. Twenty years of existence and no back to back winning seasons.

6. Winning game 1, then losing 15 in a row in 2001.

7. Andrew Luck proactively avoiding the team.

8. Drafting Jimmy Clausen. I knew he would suck, just knew it. I have witnesses from when the pick was made.

9. Somehow being the worst team in the league AND headed for cap hell at the same time in 2010.

10. The Rae Carruth and Fred Lane things happening within one year of each other.

 

There is a long and healthy tradition of disappointment here. Those are my top items; sure I left out some good ones. YMMV.

 

Luck deciding not to declare for the draft really makes your top 10. Even after seeing how this franchise has handled Cam Newton? 7th most dissapointing memory in franchise history? Dafuq?

 

Edit: Higher than the Rae Carruth fiasco?

My list looks very similar to yours.

I know it's unfair to pin that loss on that Kasey out of bounds kick.

But... I'll never forget as soon as it went out of bounds I said

"that beat us"
