Week 2 of the 2014 NFL Season is one that many teams would like to forget. The Chargers upset the Seahawks, the 49ers lost to the Bears at home, and the Jets gave up a sizable lead losing to the Packers on the road. But perhaps the biggest story were the suspensions that sidelined some of the biggest names in the league (Adrian Peterson, Josh Gordon, Ray Rice, Wes Welker) and the injuries that occurred before or during the week 2 games (RGIII, Desean Jackson, AJ Green, Jamaal Charles, Knowshon Moreno, Doug martin, Vernon Davis and more).
Below are the Week 2 divisional standings showing each team’s overall record, record against the spread (ATS), home record, away record and record in over/under betting.
