With the NFL season underway, we have a whole new series of topics to discuss, and PFR’s Community Tailgate is designed to address those topics. What’s the Community Tailgate all about? Well, it’s pretty simple. Every weekday, we’ll highlight one of the top stories going on in the NFL. Then, in the comment section below, we want you to weigh in and let us know what you think.
Of course, while the debate may get spirited, we ask that it all stays respectful. If you need a reminder of our rules, please check out our commenting policy. Basically, we ask that you refrain from inappropriate language, personal insults, and attacks. Speaking of commenting: we’ve made it much easier to leave a comment here at Pro Football Rumors.

Two weeks into the season, we have many teams who have yet to grace the win column. Of course, it’s very early, and those clubs have another 14 regular season games to right the ship. We want to know which of the following 0-2 teams you think are going to wind up making the playoffs:
- Bears
- Colts
- Eagles
- Giants
- Lions
- Ravens
- Saints
- Seahawks
- Texans
When the Pro Football Rumors writing team made predictions for the 2015 season a couple weeks ago, all of us picked the Colts to win the AFC South. However, after losses to the Bills and Jets to start the season, many of us would probably like a re-do. On Monday night the Colts’ offense line was rather porous and reliable veteran Frank Gore coughed up a costly fumble near the goal line. Quarterback Andrew Luck stands as one of the brightest young signal callers in the game, but it won’t mean much if the rest of his offense is slumping.
The Colts aren’t the only contender stumbling to start the season. Chip Kelly‘s Eagles were a sexy pick to win the division but there are issues on either side of the ball and Kiko Alonso‘s injury won’t help matters. The defending NFC Champion Seahawks have also been a disappointment and their defensive struggles have only strengthened the case for Kam Chancellor as he continues his holdout.
Of course, plenty of teams have gone 0-2 to start the year and wound up with a playoff birth. Of the teams that are winless so far, which ones do you think are headed to the postseason? Let us know in the comment section below!
Hawks and colts just don’t seem like teams that CANT not be in the postseason even if they wants the Eagles were promising but of course not every team can make it to the playoffs and so far we still don’t have clear evidence of any powerhouse teams or consistent teams especially after all these week 2 upsets so I’m gonna wait a few more weeks
I believe the Bears have a good chance at making the PlayOffs
Based on how the year is shaping out Giants or Eagles have the best shot of making the playoffs out of 0-2 teams…. And that’s only because they play in the NFC East and they are required to send a team to the playoffs, Redskins are the Redskins and Cowboys are hurting
I’m going to go with the Giants. They’re one of the better looking teams through their losses and the Saints. They’ll pull it together, they usually manage.
I still say Indianapolis wins the AFC South. While they haven’t looked sharp, I can’t believe that Tennessee, Jacksonville, or Houston are contenders for a division title.
The Giants should be 2-0 except for their brain dead QB. I think they turn it around especially since the NFC east champ could win it with just 8 0r 9 victories.
