Ambos clubes también tienen registros de 2-0 en la tercera semana de 2019.
- Los Patriots y CAM NEWTON, cuyos cuatro acarreos anotadores son la mayor cantidad por un mariscal de campo a lo largo de las primeras dos semanas en los anales de la NFL, reciben a los invictos LAS VEGAS RAIDERS (el domingo a la 1:00 PM, hora de New York, CBS).

Cinco de esos clubes con marca de 2-0 clubes –los ARIZONA CARDINALS, CHICAGO BEARS, LAS VEGAS RAIDERS, LOS ANGELES RAMS y PITTSBURGH STEELERS– se perdieron la postemporada en 2019.

Dos equipos durante ese lapso, los New Orleans Saints de 2009 y los Philadelphia Eagles de 2017, ganaron el Super Bowl tras haber finalizado en el último puesto en sus divisiones la temporada anterior. La temporada pasada, tanto Green Bay (NFC Norte) como San Francisco (NFC Oeste) ganaron sus divisiones tras haberse perdido la postemporada en 2018.

Los equipos que viajan desde la Costa Oeste hacia el Este para enfrentarse con equipos de ese huso horario están 5-0 esta temporada, con un triunfo por cada uno de los cinco equipos que practican, comen y duermen tres horas antes que los equipos a los que derrotaron. En un periodo más largo, desde el comienzo de 2019 e incluyendo postemporada, esos equipos están 20-4 (.833). Los registros de partidos ganados y perdidos de los equipos de la zona del Pacífico jugando de visitante contra equipos del huso horario del Este, desde 2019: EQUIPO | GANÓ | PERDIÓ | % | Seattle | 7 | 0 | 1.000 | L.A. Rams | 4 | 1 | .800 | San Francisco | 4 | 1 | .800 | L.A. Chargers | 3 | 1 | .750 | Las Vegas | 2 | 1 | .667 | Totales | 20 | 4 | .833 |
BATALLAS DE LOS IMBATIDOS. La acción de este fin de semana incluye dos duelos entre equipos con marca de 2-0: los Los Angeles Rams en Buffalo (1:00 PM, hora de New York Sunday, FOX) y Kansas City en Baltimore (8:15 PM, hora de New York Monday, ESPN). Los Chiefs y los Ravens se encontraron hace un año, en la tercera semana, como equipos con registro de 2-0, cuando los Chiefs les propinaron a los Ravens una de sus derrotas en temporada regular, 33-28. Mahomes lanzó 374 yardas y tres anotaciones. Desde 2006, 17 partidos tuvieron a equipos 2-0 enfrentándose en la tercera semana. Los ganadores de esos juegos presagiaron fortunas en la postemporada. Y durante ese lapso, incluyendo a los Chiefs la temporada pasada, el ganador de un duelo entre equipos 2-0 en la tercera semana terminaron ganando el Super Bowl tres veces (Kansas City ganó el Super Bowl LIV en 2019, New England ganó el Super Bowl LI en 2016, e Indianapolis ganó el Super Bowl XLI en 2006). Otros dos equipos, los Chicago Bears de 2006 y los Pittsburgh Steelers de 2010, perdieron el Super Bowl. Y un equipo perdedor de un duelo entre equipos 2-0, los Green Bay Packers de 2010, terminaron ganando el Super Bowl. NO ES CÓMO ARRANCAS, ES CÓMO TERMINAS. Mientras que 11 equipos arrancaron 2-0, otros 11 abrieron 0-2. Cada temporada de fútbol americano conlleva adversidad. Sobreponerse a esa adversidad fue característica de los equipos de la NFL desde que el entrenador de los Packers de primer año VINCE LOMBARDI reemplazó al lesionado LAMAR MCHAN con un jugador seleccionado en la 17ª vuelta del Draft nombrado BART STARR. Lombardi y Starr terminaron ganando cinco campeonatos de la NFL y capturaron los primeros dos Super Bowls en su camino hacia la exaltación como miembros del Salón de la Fama. Cuarenta y cuatro años más tarde, TOM BRADY, 199ª selección global en el Sorteo Universitario del año anterior, tomó las riendas del equipo de manos del titular, DREW BLEDSOE , y llevó a los Patriots, que estaban 0-2, hasta una victoria en el Super Bowl. La NFL esta temporada comienza un formato de postemporada de 14 equipos, con dos equipos Comodín adicionales, uno de la AFC y otro de la NFC. En el periodo 1990-2019, durante la era del formato de playoffs de 12 equipos, cada temporada al menos cuatro equipos clasificaron para la postemporada tras habérsela perdido el año anterior. La temporada pasada, cinco equipos que no clasificaron a la postemporada en 2018 –Buffalo (10-6), Green Bay (13-3), Minnesota (10-6), San Francisco (13-3) y Tennessee (9-7)– consiguieron plazas en la postemporada. A lo largo de las últimas 30 temporadas, desde 1990, 30 equipos se sobrepusieron a arranques 0-2 para terminar clasificando. Tres de esos clubes – los DALLAS COWBOYS de 1993, los NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS de 2001 y los NEW YORK GIANTS de 2007– ganaron el Super Bowl. Y cuatro de esos clubes –los SAN DIEGO CHARGERS de 1992, los DETROIT LIONS de 1995, los BUFFALO BILLS de 1998 y los HOUSTON TEXANS de 2018– alcanzaron la postemporada tras un arranque 0-3. Los 30 equipos que avanzaron a la postemporada tras un inicio 0-2, desde 1990: AÑO | EQUIPO | MARCA FINAL | | AÑO | EQUIPO | MARCA FINAL | 1990 | Houston Oilers | 9-7 | | 2002 | Pittsburgh | 10-5-1 | 1990 | New Orleans | 8-8 | | 2003 | Philadelphia | 12-4 | 1990 | Philadelphia | 10-6 | | 2006 | Kansas City | 9-7 | 1991 | Atlanta | 10-6 | | 2007 | *New York Giants | 10-6 | 1992 | +San Diego Chargers | 11-5 | | 2008 | Miami | 11-5 | 1993 | *Dallas | 12-4 | | 2008 | Minnesota | 10-6 | 1993 | Pittsburgh | 9-7 | | 2008 | San Diego Chargers | 8-8 | 1994 | New England | 10-6 | | 2013 | Carolina | 12-4 | 1995 | +Detroit | 10-6 | | 2014 | Indianapolis | 11-5 | 1996 | New England | 11-5 | | 2015 | Houston Texans | 9-7 | 1998 | Arizona | 9-7 | | 2015 | Seattle | 10-6 | 1998 | +Buffalo | 10-6 | | 2016 | Miami | 10-6 | 1998 | New York Jets | 12-4 | | 2017 | New Orleans | 11-5 | 2001 | *New England | 11-5 | | 2018 | +Houston Texans | 11-5 | 2002 | Atlanta | 9-6-1 | | 2018 | Seattle | 10-6 | *Ganó el Super Bowl +Arrancó la temporada 0-3 |
