I'm 0 - 2 in one of my main leagues which is a kind of a surprise. the team is also being hit w/ injuries which is one of the causes. Lost AGonzo in week 1 and got the goose egg, lost that game by 10 pts which he could of gotten.... also have Cutler at QB and watching those Drops week 1 killed me.This weekend the other broke the league record for Pts so I can't get to mad. I also may have lost Hixon and MB3. Hixon was my #4 and I don't anything after him. I also have an extra 2010 1st and his team is really bad.But 0 - 2 isn't that bad. I've gone 0 - 3 plenty of times and ended up 9 - 4 and in the playoffs.

According to the rate your team app, I did great. Using some of the projections, I had upwards of 90%-99% chance of making the playoffs.
Came out STRONG in week 1. Had the 2nd highest point total...and LOST by 5 points to the #1. We both outscored #3 by 30 points. It was a rough week though, as my top two picks were LT2 and Slaton (I sat Slaton for Rice fortunately) and I lost McNabb.
Week 2, I started Garrard, Jennings, Wayne, H. Ward, Rice, Slaton, Carlson, and NYJ. I have R. Wayne left, trailing by 10...and the other guy has Manning, which sort of handcuffs me. So I'll be 0-2. Probably with the 3rd highest point total.
In the last 3 years, I've started 0-4, gone on a TEAR, and ended up falling 1 game short of the playoffs each year. I have also usually had top 3 in total points. I just get BAD matchups and score big, but lose to people scoring bigger.

0-2 in my main league (14-team, 3 keepers-unlimited length) but not overly worried about it. Posted what will probably be the 3rd or 4th highest total this week in my 14-team league but ran into the buzz saw of Andre Johnson and Chris Johnson (must be pissed I didn't keep him, lol).
My team was a "lock" to make the playoffs by two out of the four rate-my-team analysts.

Found a way to lose despite Rivers outscoring Brady 33-7 
Stupid Andre Johnson never did squat against Tennessee when I had him the last 2 yrs.

I am getting smoked in one of my leagues. I was traveling, so I could not do the draft. It was a draft on Yahoo and I ranked my players, but my friends thought it would be better if they had someone drafting for me with my list, so the computer didn't do something dumb like choose 4 TEs...unfortunately, the guy they selected was equally obtuse and chose Fitz, Boldin and Breaston as my first 3 WRs, with not much else behind them in a PPR. I don't have the cahones to start all three and unless Warner goes off for 300 yards and 3 TDs in every game, I am not sure there is much value in starting all three. He also picked the All-Grandpa RB squad for me with Lewis, T Jones and LJ.
Never started 0-2 before :-( Sucks
I thought I was gonna own the league ;-) Schaub (benched this week for Favre sadly), MJD, Ronnie, Boldin, Steve Smith, Braylon, Marshall in a 12-teamer. First week I got to play vs Brees, yesterday it was Gore ;-) Oh well, just a game (I suppose)

0-2 after a 1 point loss week one and a 3 point loss to the high scorer of week two. Just keeping plugging away and hope you get a bounce or two!

Nah, I am gonna be .500 in all four leagues (1-1 in two of them, and 3-3 in the two where we play three games a week). Considering I do not have Adrian Peterson, Drew Brees, Frank Gore or Chris Johnson on any of those teams, I am happy. The first few weeks are always weird, so you just have to survive them, and things eventually even out.

I am 1-1 in 3 leagues and 0-2 in one....the one I am 0-2 in, I thought I had the best draft 
0-2 team
QB: Palmer; Flacco (I started the wrong QB each week; I started Palmer week 1 and Flacco week 2 and each week it was the wrong decision)
WR: Fitzgerald; Colston; Santana Moss (I have started this turd 2 weeks in a row now....I may have to start him week 3 too against Detroit); Chris Henry (super sleeper turned turd); Kenny Britt
RB: LT2 (injured again after an avg week 1); Benson (benched him both games - I know I suck); Reggie Bush (doing ok); Michael Bush (started him week 2 against Chiefs and got a whopping 5 pts); Knowshon Moreno (hoping he takes off after week 2 since he got quite a few carries and 2 catches in week 2)
TE: Keller (steady and solid); Jermichael Finley
K: Rackers
D: Bears; Redskins
I really hope Moreno turns it on to get my team going.....

Part of the reason I am 0-2 is that they benched Warner when the game was out of hand. Had they left him in I would be 1 & 1. Sucks, why dont they think us before doing this kind of crap. *sarcasm*

0-2 in 14 team redraft with this lineup:
QB - Cutler
RB - Steven Jackson, Portis
WR - Calvin Johnson, Steve Smith (CAR)
Flex - Bowe
TE - Daniels
K - Kaeding
D/ST - Packers
Bench - Garrard, Lynch, Derrick Ward, Edge, Earl Bennett
Poor score last week; second highest score this week. FBG's RMT said this team was a lock to make the playoffs, but it will definitely be an uphill battle at this point.

I'm 2-0 in a mostly "shark" league and 0-2 in a "mixed" league (hate the labels, but they do work to distinguish between the league). In the "mixed" league, my 0-2 team has played two teams that have averaged 103 points when they played me and 53 points the other week. So I could just as easily be 2-0 but probably deserve 1-1. In the "mixed" league, teams pretty much have records that are exactly inverted to what the Draft Dominator "team strength" figures would indicate.I'm 1-1 in my main league but I don't feel good at all! I haven't been scoring very many points. I loved my draft and the rate my draft had me at 99%, 99% and 97% chance of amking the playoffs! Hopefully, Brady gets going soon!
I've started as bad as 0-4 and made the playoffs, and as others have said the first few weeks can be difficult. Once the byes kick in, my teams usually have superior depth which helps to make up for early season struggles. Hope that's true for everyone else out there who started poorly.

0-2 in all my non-dynasty leagues. Scoring has been okay, generally, but I'm in trouble.
Grabbed McNabb as a value QB many places, took Hasselbeck everywhere. Right now, half my teams have 0 healthy QB's I drafted. And of course, I started Hasselbeck week 2 where I have him with McNabb. It's ugly, and will require good roster work. And I have Eddie Royal everywhere as well.
Dynasty I could be 2-0 after this week. I need Peyton & the 2 Miami safteies to outscore Robert Mathis by 9 points.
