Eleven teams have started 0-2, but are any of them playoff bound? Brady Quinn says there's a good chance the Texans could be 0-3, but he STILL expects them to get in. Brady and I also think there's an NFC team that has a good shot, and we also size up the teams with 2-0 starts that could miss the playoffs (Brady's not so sure one QB can keep it up).
Pete Prisco usually gets off to a slow start and heats up as the season wears on, but this year he's already red-hot with a 20-11-1 ATS record. Pete's sure he'll keep cooking with his Week 3 picks, which include the Packers adding to the Saints' misery, Dallas keeping it close in Seattle, and check out who he's got in Chiefs-Ravens.
How good has QB play been in 2020? Consider this: Kyler Murray and Aaron Rodgers have been scorching their opponents, and they didn't even make Cody Benjamin's top three. Patrick Mahomes isn't in the top two! Cody ranks all 32 starters, with Josh Allen and Jared Goff rising into the top 10 (but where's Tom Brady?).

Speaking of QB play, it's cool to see guys like Brady, Drew Brees and Philip Rivers playing at far older ages than their NFL predecessors did, but as Jason La Canfora points out, football is a young man's game. One minute you're vying for an MVP, the next you're trying to hold off Brock Osweiler. JLC breaks down all the older QBs, and here's what he expects from them in 2020.
The Cowboys have consistently dropped the ball in negotiations with Dak Prescott, while the Patriots made the biggest bargain signing of the year with Cam Newton. But their deals do have something in common: Both are in a contract year. Joel Corry says Cam and Dak are among 15 players to watch whose contracts are up in 2020; another is TB12's top target.
Drew Brees may be running on fumes at this point, but even if the Saints don't have an early pick in the draft, they might still be able to find a perfect replacement. Chris Trapasso says it'll be hard for Trey Lance to go in the early part of Round 1 without a full season of film, which works out great for New Orleans. Meanwhile, Joe Burrow will see a dream come true.
There are 11 unbeaten teams, and know what else is 2-0? OUR TEASER OF THE WEEK. This week, R.J. White says there's huge value on teasing the Chiefs up to plus-9.5, and that's not even the No. 1 option in his teaser rankings. R.J. also says teasing the Pats to PK should work out well, but no matter what Pete Prisco says, stay away from the Packers.
Kyler Murray looks like he's taken a major leap, and who knows more about it than his teammate? Patrick Peterson, who's hosting our new 'All Things Covered' pod along with Bryant McFadden, explains in the first episode why he can't watch Kyler on the jumbo screen, plus Tyrann Mathieu joins to break down the NFL and much more.
