What happened: Los Angeles fell to 0-2 after a 26-14 loss to Las Vegas. That result paired with another defeat to a team under .200 last season leaves Harbaugh and company in historic company.

Why it matters: An 0-2 start complicates the early AFC standings math. Dropping both games to prior-year sub-.200 opponents sharpens scrutiny on preparation and execution.

By the numbers: Los Angeles is the second 0-2 starter after losses to sub-.200 opponents, joining the 1995 Jaguars in their first two games of existence.

What to watch: Watch how Harbaugh adjusts practice and lineup before Week 3 with early-season margin already gone.
