Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.
Happens to me when I play on my buddy's account. Win more and you'll get better team mates and opponents. As much as trueskill isn't strict as it was in Halo 3, in that it is far more willing to match a 12 to a 49 in Reach, it's still working roughly the same way.
I can attest that posting a nice solid win streak produced matches of significantly higher skill level, after a little while. In my case it's because my friend was terrible, and he sold his xbox and gave me his account. I was silver, and he still had a couple weeks of gold left. I went from seeing players like this in games like this to seeing players like this in games like this. Not a huge difference, but it's noticeable when you play.
Oh, and I play solo. So no team holding my W/L up there. Team would make it easier, but my point is you can do it without one.
So, tl;dr your issue is probably trueskill related. Or population related. One of the two.
