13.8%

That's the % of teams that have gone to the playoffs after starting 0-2 since 1990.

Go Panthers! Beat the odds, I dare you!

This stupid fact again. And the Giants went 0-2 and won the SB. Blah blah blah.

Wonder what the % is of teams that went 0-4 in the preason and then 0-2 to start the season. Significantly smaller sample, I imagine.

I'll be pretty shocked if we make the playoffs, unfortunately. I thought we were totally outclassed today -- like, Ryan moved the ball downfield completely at will, and meanwhile every completion or big run we made involved some spectacular catch or stiffarm or bit of luck. I was ready to toss the Philly game out as an aberration, but it's looking pretty clear that this team just isn't very good. I think we're pretty lucky to have kept this game close.

Still love this team and hope they find away, but it would be a miracle of miracles to win 10 of the next 14 games.

It might be asking too much for Fox to pull his head out of his ass though.

So, what is do the Giants have that the Panthers don't?

a monster D-Line and an above average QB.

1 team out of 160. That % is 0.625.

A pass rush.

If Fox doesn't start Matt Moore, I hope we go 0-16 so we get Bill Cowher next year!

[tight lines]

That means that 1.656 out of 12 teams in the playoffs every year started 0-2 That really doesn't seem that damning

Probability FAIL. Do you see why?
