Barry Sanders Syndrome

A psychological disorder in which an athlete is an excellent player on a team that fails to find any scrap of success. Named after Barry Sanders, an NFL running back who played his entire 10-year career with the woefully horrible atrocious Detroit Lions.
Example: Josh Gordon of the Cleveland Browns may be suffering from Barry Sanders Syndrome, as he is the only player on that team with a clue!
