Six NFL Teams Drop to 0-3 After Week 3, Facing Long Playoff Odds

NFL history shows 0-3 starts almost never lead to the postseason.

Overview

  • The Jets, Giants, Dolphins, Saints, Texans and Titans are 0-3 after the Week 3 slate.
  • Since 1990, only four of 165 teams that started 0-3 have made the playoffs, and just six teams have ever done it, most recently the 2018 Texans.
  • Miami was the first club to fall to 0-3, losing on Thursday night to open the week.
  • Kansas City avoided 0-3 by beating the Giants 22-9, keeping hopes of extending its 10-year playoff streak intact.
  • Only six teams remain unbeaten through Week 3: the Bills, Chargers, Colts, Eagles, 49ers and Buccaneers.
