It’s tough to compete in the NFL due to several reasons.
First, the game’s physical nature can end seasons or careers in an instant.
Second, the hard cap leads to an eventful free agency wherein some star players may switch teams.
Third, an aging core of players might not be at the top of their game after a few years.
Those reasons make starting the season with a 2-0 record already a commendable feat.
In contrast, last year’s playoff teams like the Cincinnati Bengals, Las Vegas Raiders, and Tennessee Titans are struggling to find their mark at 0-2.
But after two weeks of action in the 2022 NFL season, only six teams are left with unblemished records.

The Buffalo Bills have been the most dominant among the six after averaging 36 points per game and having a +55 point differential.
What’s more impressive is that they obliterated the Los Angeles Rams and Titans in those games.
Meanwhile, their nemesis over the past two seasons is also at 2-0 despite losing Tyreek Hill and Tyrann Mathieu.
The Kansas City Chiefs have defeated the Arizona Cardinals and the Los Angeles Chargers.
The New York Giants have a surprise 2-0 start with victories over the Titans and the Carolina Panthers.
Other 2-0 Teams
The Philadelphia Eagles are also at 2-0 after a 24-7 win over the Minnesota Vikings.
In that game, Jalen Hurts became the first player in NFL history to complete over 80 percent of his passes, throw for over 300 yards, and score multiple rushing touchdowns in a game.
The Miami Dolphins also completed a 2-0 record via a 28-3 fourth-quarter run to defeat the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2.
Tua Tagovailoa threw for 469 yards and six touchdowns in that game.
Finally, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are also perfect after two starts, mainly because of their defense.
They have only allowed 13 total points and one touchdown in two games.
