0-2 start no way to defend division crown (AP)

Starting off 0-2 isn't necessarily an indication of a doomed season in the NFL.

This year, looking at the way the Colts, Chiefs, and Seahawks have lost both games, it's difficult to imagine any of those 2010 division winners making a turnaround.

Comebacks from slow starts aren't unusual in pro football. While no team lost its first two and made the postseason in 2009 or 2010, back in 2007, the Giants began their season 0-2. All they did was win the Super Bowl.

Comebacks with key players injured (Peyton Manning and Gary Brackett in Indianapolis, Jamaal Charles and Eric Berry in Kansas City) or with uncertainty at nearly every position (the Seahawks' roster seems to change hourly) border on impossible.
