Percentage of 2-0 team that make playoffs??

The important thing is that we aren't 0-2. Because the percentage of 0-2 teams that made the playoffs since 2000 is just 8%. Going back to 1978, that percentage climbs to about 11%.

The 66% of 2-0 teams making the playoffs is through 1978 (the start of the 16-game season).

One interesting stat is that this year is the first time in *NFL HISTORY* that five Playoff Teams from last year have started 0-2 (and therefore, statistically, only one of those teams is likely to make the playoffs again this year)
