NFL Week 2 grades for all 32 teams: Saints earn an 'A' for stunning Ravens
Key Points:
- Week 2 of the NFL season was critical for teams with 0-1 records, as starting 0-2 significantly reduces playoff chances; only 8 out of 51 teams have made the postseason after such a start since 2020.
- The Texans, Titans, Colts, Dolphins, Commanders, Buccaneers, and Falcons all fell to 0-2, putting them in a challenging position to reach the playoffs this year.
- Despite the tough odds, three teams made the playoffs last season after starting 0-2, showing a comeback is possible but difficult.
- Notable Week 2 results included the Saints' upset over the Ravens, Kansas City's overtime win against Indianapolis, and Buffalo's strong victory over Detroit.
- Other key wins were secured by New England, Cincinnati, Minnesota, Green Bay, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Carolina, Denver, Las Vegas, Dallas, Seattle, and San Francisco.
