NFLTR Insider: 0-2 Teams, Young, Kupp, Deebo, Pacheco, Buzz

September 17, 2024

0-2 Teams

  • It gets late early in the NFL. While the season may be 17 games, history says teams that start 0-2 have just a 10 percent chance of rebounding and making the playoffs. Week 2 may not be a knockout round — but it’s close. 

  • Last year there were nine teams that lost both games to start the season. Only one — the Houston Texans — rebounded to make the postseason.

  • NFLTR’s Logan Ulrich takes a look at the teams that have started 0-2 in 2024.

Bryce Young

  • The Panthers made the decision to bench QB Bryce Young and start veteran Andy Dalton in Week 3 against the Raiders. (NFLTR)

  • It's been a nightmare start to the 2024 season for the Panthers and the former No. 1 pick looks like he's regressed.

Cooper Kupp

  • Rams coach Sean McVay told reporters on Monday that WR Cooper Kupp is going to be out an “extended period of time” with an ankle injury. (NFLTR)

  • McVay added that injured reserve is a possibility for Kupp, which would cost him the next four games and possibly more.
