The 2022 NFL season has kicked off Week 2 with the Chiefs coming back to beat the Chargers on . Kansas City improved to 2-0 with the win while LA dropped to 1-1. Both are going to be playoff contenders, and even with the loss, the Chargers have no reason to panic.
Every year, the dawn of Week 2 brings with it some version of the following stat about 0-2 teams making the playoffs. In this case, the last time an 0-2 team made the playoffs was in 2018 when the Texans and Seahawks both accomplished the feat.
27 teams started 0-2 the past 3 years and none of them made the playoffs. The last time a team started a season 0-2 and made the playoffs was in 2018 when Houston and Seattle both did it
