Have two 0-10 teams ever played each other?

Looking at both teams schedules there is a good chance that the Panther/Cleveland game could be the first.:frown2:

Not sure it has happened in NFL ... and will not happen this year, either.

But I went to a college game in the early '70's between two 0-fer teams late in the season when both had lost 8 of 9, ECU at NC State - we nicknamed it the 'Toilet Bowl' - ha, ha.

I remember a few years back there were two teams that had maybe one win between them meeting late in the season for what was essentially the first round pick the following year. A buddy and I laughingly wondered if they both might try to lose. Can't remember what year it was, though.

The Giants and Jets played in a game that was epically bad some years back too. The pre-game singer even screwed up the Star Spangled Banner. Olbermann and Patrick were on Sportscenter at the time, and one or the other (probably Olbermann) said the game was so awful that in the third quarter, Jimmy Hoffa got up and walked out.

1976 the Tampa Bay Buccaneers finished the season 0-14! (They only played 14 games in a season then.)

They played the Seattle Seahawks, also an expansion team, and they were both 0-5 at that point.

The 0–14 record has since been matched by the 1980 New Orleans Saints, who won their second to last game to end the season 1–15. The 1990 New England Patriots had a 1–1 record when several of the players sexually harassed a female reporter. The fallout from the scandal contributed to the team finishing 0–14 in its final games. The record was surpassed by the 2001 Carolina Panthers, who lost their last fifteen games to eclipse the Buccaneers' record for consecutive games lost in a single season, and the 2008 Detroit Lions, the only winless team in the era of 16-game schedules. Nine NFL teams have lost 15 or more games in a season since the 1976 Buccaneers' record. The Buccaneers' 26-game losing streak from 1976 to 1977 still stands as the longest in modern NFL history.

But, I'm stil lnot sure about 2 0-10 teams facing each other.

    • He has said many times hes a diehard Panther fan. Being a former player he is going to be very pro player. I don't think its a conspiracy but just someone close to the individuals.
    • Cant take him seriously because he likes Bryce sounds about right for around here 
    • OK, let me first say that I can't get any Twitter link to embed--using "X" or "Twitter" or whatever, and I'm tired of trying. Now, I must say that I see Panthers stuff in Facebook on occasion as I'm part of some group, but I see Panthers stuff even less on the cesspool that is now X, but as a follower of the official Panthers Twitter, stuff pops up on that feed too. I guess that I shouldn't be surprised that agents of the organization would be putting out tweets like this: He's not even trying to be objective. It stands to make sense though. In order to get better information, you have to go to national sources like Kurt Warner.  I'm not necessarily trying to pick on J-Stew, per se, but I can't take him seriously, as even some past Panthers players, like Greg Olsen for example, don't seem like they're just trying to cater to Panthers Nation, just saying hollow words to make everyone feel good.  I just wonder why here on the Carolina Huddle, there seems to be more objectivity, or at least more critical thinking and serious discussion than most other social media sources on the Panthers. It's interesting. There is a significant difference.  For all the changes and the seeming decline in popularity to whatever degree, the Carolina Huddle still has its place and plays a big part in overall Panthers fandom. We want to be happy, joyous and cheer for the Panthers, but we aren't necessarily trying to shoot sunshine up people's derrières either.
