2023 NFL Playoffs: Ranking the 0-2 Teams With the Best Chance to Make the Postseason

Historically speaking, it’s a tough road for 0–2 teams to make the playoffs.

As for reaching the Super Bowl? Only the 1993 Cowboys, 2001 Patriots and ’07 Giants have won it all after dropping their first two games. And it should be noted Dallas was without Hall of Fame running back Emmitt Smith, who held out for two contests before returning, and helping Dallas to a 12–4 record.

This year, nine teams have started with two consecutive defeats. How many of them have hope of getting back in the race? We rank them from least to most likely.
