2-0 and 0-2

All three of our 2-0 teams started 2-0 last season too, which is kind of interesting. As for our 0-2 teams, they are less hapless than they look. Well, for the most part. In the NFL, it's hard to recover from 0-2 but in fantasy, that's just a minor stumble. We bet one of the 0-2 teams will make the playoffs while one of the 2-0 teams will fade into obscurity by WK13. Care to take bets on which?

On top of the world at 2-0
100 Acre Wood Pooh Bears PF: 172 PA: 148
Breathing a sigh of relief after a late MNF charge from Matt Ryan, the Pooh Bears are the best team in the league. It's not hard to see why as all of their pre-season moves have paid off. Cam Newton is averaging 18.5 points, Ray Rice and Jimmy Graham are performing as expected, and young guys like Doug Martin and Brandon LaFell are stepping up. The Bears are the only team with five guys who put up double digits in each of the first two weeks. No wonder they're the leaders this young season.

Mandalorian Warriors PF: 163 PA: 152
Escaping with a 68-67 victory in WK2, the Warriors are undefeated, leaning heavily on new acquisition Drew Brees, LeSean McCoy, and Rob Gronkowski. Jordy Nelson and Steven Jackson aren't pulling their weight yet, but they could soon come around. Matt will need the rest of his team to step up if he's going to continue his winning ways. Also, is Brandon Marshall the 17 point beast from WK1 or the 2 point mouse from WK2? Lots of questions for a team that's 2-0...

Italian Stallionz PF: 160 PA: 123
Porta's been here before, starting off 2-0 last season before tumbling to 5-8 during his inaugural season. This time he's got six players averaging double digits -- not including a K or DEF -- led by Tom Brady, Demaryius Thomas, and Stevan Ridley. Plus old men Reggie Wayne and Tony Gonzalez look revitalized. Of course, one of the Stallionz's wins was a WK2 70-41 beatdown of Jedi Knights, but a win is a win. With Brady not even close to hitting his stride, we see some upside here.

Swirling in the stink at 0-2
P Funk All Stars PF: 87 PA: 182
Paolo has three guys averaging 14 points or above. The problem is they all play one position: quarterback. QBs Joe Flacco, Alex Smith, and Sam Bradford have been putting up the points but two of them sit every week -- so far Flacco has been starting. The only other players to hit double digits so far have been Mark Ingram and Pierre Thomas, both in WK2 (Thomas' was from the bench). Starting receiver Brian Quick has one target and zero receptions so far this season. Ouch. Someone tell Paolo 43.5 points per game is unacceptable!

Another Bad Creation PF: 150 PA: 168
The Ba-Donka-Donk Division has two of the winless teams, so at least Oliver's squad isn't sitting in last. While Oliver came awful close to beating Mandalorian Warriors this past weekend, his bench RBs all outplayed Darren McFadden, costing him a win. (Reggie Bush!!!) To be fair, ABC has a few guys averaging double digits and his wide receivers -- Andre Johnson, Vincent Jackson, Andrew Hawkins -- are looking like they'll take turns putting up points. Aaron Rodgers needs to put up more than 16 points a game for this team to pull themselves back up though.

Ann Arbor Bamfers PF: 155 PA: 189
It's rare that an injury can positively change the fortunes of a team so much. In Randy's case, he's delighted Fred Jackson went down in WK1, which opened the door for CJ Spiller. While Spiller has only contributed in WK2 for the Bamfers, he could prove to be this year's breakout back. With Eli Manning, a still effective Frank Gore, and even BenJarvus Green-Ellis grabbing some points, the Bamfers are a winless team on the way up. They lost in WK1 due to Jackson's injury and got nailed with 121 points from Detroit Players in WK2. We're banking on a WK3 trip to the win column.
