As many of you know, starting 0-2 essentially all but guarantees that you will not make the playoffs (In NFL history over 80% of teams who start 0-2 do not go on to make the post-season).
@cardpa pointed out on Sunday that of the 11 teams who started 0-2 last year, none of them were in the playoffs.
With that said I don't think many here are expecting a win, especially after that abysmal performance against the Chiefs. At the very least I hope to see Arizona play with a sense of urgency and for them to stand out as the more physical team.
The only glimmer of hope that I have right now is that Derek Carr is not Pat Mahomes. But even so Las Vegas is favored and rightly so. They gotta find a way on Sunday or the season is over. It doesn't matter that they'll lose the following week to the Rams. 1-2 still gives you a chance. 0-2 is the death blow.
