Here is a quick-hitting look at the Week 2 games, leading off with the NFC Championship Game rematch.
NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA - JANUARY 20: Drew Brees #9 of the New Orleans Saints shakes hands with Jared Goff #16 of the Los Angeles Rams at the start of overtime in the NFC Championship game at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on January 20, 2019 in NewSince 1990, when the NFL adopted the 12-team playoff format, 144 of the 235 teams to start 2-0 have qualified for the postseason.
On the other hand, since realignment in 2002, 126 of the 204 playoff teams began the year at either 1-1 or 0-2. Last year, as many 2-0 teams qualified for the playoffs as 0-2 teams .This is a rematch of the Rams’ controversial 26-23 victory in last year’s NFC Championship Game. Rams quarterback Jared Goff has thrown for 959 yards and eight touchdowns in three career games vs. the Saints.
"He's got such a high motor," Brees said."He is full-go, all the time. He is so multiple in the things that he can do, the moves that he can give you, the inside, the outside, the rip, the jump. I don't even have names for all the moves that he can do to get to the quarterback. You cannot block him with one guy. He's just that good a player. He's such an impact player. He can change the game. I don't know if I've ever seen anybody like him.
“It’s a sleepless week for me,” Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said. “It’s just tough playing a guy like that. He’s just so good – maybe one of the best that’s ever played the game.”If Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz throws two touchdown passes, he’ll become the second-fastest active player to reach 75 career touchdowns. This will be Wentz’s 42nd game; Detroit’s Matthew Stafford did it in 41 games.
Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan needs three touchdown passes to become the 12th player in NFL history to reach the 300 milestone. He’s got a 16-game touchdown streak, which trails only Minnesota’s Kirk Cousins . The last team to prevent a Ryan touchdown pass? The Eagles in the 2017 opener. These Eagles, however, gave up 380 passing yards last week to Washington’s Case Keenum after finishing 30th vs. the pass last year.
