A few reminders for fans getting too lathered up or excessively despondent over how great or awful their teams are two games into the season:
The Buffalo Bills started out 5-1 last year and didn't make the playoffs.
The Miami Dolphins opened last season 0-2 and won the AFC East.
The Sports Illustrated cover curse will claim a victim or two before it's all over.
The New England Patriots lost their first two games in 2001, including a seven-point loss to the New York Jets in Week 2, but claimed their first Super Bowl title five months later.
Like Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez, Ryan Leaf also started his NFL career 2-0.
