Many of the poor starts of NFL teams hurt after Week 2. The top AFC seed, the Baltimore Ravens, will open the season 0-2 then scramble for a playoff spot while the Cincinnati Bengals
Jacksonville Jaguars and Los Angeles Rams are 0-0 in Week 3. 3 avoid the stumble. Carolina Panthers are 0-2 too. Their two-game offence is one of the NFL's worst, scoring 13 points. Can we bench Bryce Young as a sunk cost?
The Dolphins may have felt hopeless following their 31-10 "Thursday Night Football" loss to the Bills. After losing by 21 points, starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered another concussion.
After four concussions during the 2022 NFL season, Tagovailoa's career is unknown. He wants to play but some think he should retire for health.
A Week 1 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs surely upset Ravens supporters. Baltimore gets irked losing a 10-point fourth quarter lead to the Las Vegas Raiders and falls to 0-2.
Many loved that the Saints won Week 1 over the Panthers. Nobody saw them do the same to the Cowboys in Week 2.
If performance alone, the Panthers should bench Bryce Young. After two games without a touchdown, he has thrown three interceptions and looks uncomfortable in the pocket.
Aaron Donald's retirement hurt the Rams' defence, but they're missing players. Injuries haunt the Rams offence, and Week 2 got worse.
