I've failed 4 promos in a row while having a 65% win rate in ranked. What can I do to improve?

I have just failed my 4th promo in a row. I'm 0/9 in these promo games while I have a 65% solo/duo ranked win rate over the past week. This includes all the promos I failed.

In this promo:

The first game the top lane fed to the tune of 0/9/0 and the support dc'd halfway though the game. We surrendered in 23 minutes. https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2715161651/243611839?tab=overview

The second game the rest of the team combined for 4/17 while I went 6/4. We surrendered in 21 minutes. https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2715187873/243611839?tab=overview

My first question is could I have carried these games? What should I be doing differently? Are there any tips or what to do's when a lane is feeding and the others go even at best? is it a possibility that myself as a relatively new player could have won?

The second question is are promos like this for everyone or am I just having terrible luck? It seems like every game someone either feeds or disconnects. Is this just a Bronze thing and I just have to struggle through or are there things I can do to improve my chances at winning a promo?

I started playing this game about the start of the new season. I'm about ready to quit. It seems pointless to keep playing when I get consistently terrible teams, and will never improve my rank.

How do I prevent this from happening?

Where are you taking the 65% from? You have a 39% wr in ranked http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Veres+Ura

This is what I have had last season. Its like Riot wanted to put afker/feeders/trolls on my team when I went into Promos.

EVERY time.

I've had a rough season so far. Demoted twice. Played JG like you. Hard to say what you should be doing differently without game play. Of course there are games that just aren't winnable...like all your lanes losing. IMO I find JG to be less relevant that laning that's why I've gone dmg support now. Try to turn that in a kill lane with my adc, and snowball from there.
