What's this? A promoted team winning? Carlisle are a goal to the good against Fleetwood through Owen Moxon on 36 minutes.
Elsewhere Ipswich loanee Gassan Ahadme has notched a second for Cambridge at home to Oxford, they lead 2-0.
And Derby, many people's tips for the title, are 1-0 down at home to Wigan - newly relegated and with an eight-point handicap to start the season.
Charlie Wyke has put the visitors into an eye-catching lead.
Matheus Martins (38 mins)
The floodgates have opened and this could get even more ugly for QPR.
Matheus Martins makes it 3-0 before half-time, this time flicking it on from a corner inside the near post.
QPR are in a total mess and Gareth Ainsworth will surely have to make some big changes at the break.

Josh (Exeter fan): I had a few questions about Gary Caldwell's recruitment this summer... Not any more! Could've been three but for a missed penalty.
It was a dominant start for the Grecians at Wycombe in League One. They went 2-0 up inside four minutes!
Watford 2-0 QPR
Watford are pushing for a third here and QPR can't really seem to do anything about it.
Jeremy Ngakia has a shot but it's pushed away for a corner while Vakoun Bayo also heads over.
Norwich 0-1 Hull City
Norwich have not scored in their past five home games and if it carries on like this it is going to be six.
More good chances go begging for the home side, as Onel Hernandez fires over from close range.

Just like Wrexham, Notts County are now 2-0 down on their EFL return, though they have a bigger mountain to climb at Sutton as they have already had their keeper sent-off.
Omari Patrick has doubled the Sutton lead after just 23 minutes with a blockbuster strike into the top corner.
David Keillor-Dunn has bagged two in four minutes for Mansfield who now lead 2-0 at Crewe. The Stags missed out on a play-off place on goal difference just three months ago - they seem intent on avoiding that fate again in this campaign judging by their opening half-hour.
Swansea 0-0 Birmingham
We've had a few half attempts on goal from the visitors but no breakthrough yet.
Krystian Bielek finds himself in a good position but his shot goes straight down the middle and straight into the keeper's hands.
Middlesbrough 0-0 Millwall
Whilst goals are flying in elsewhere around the Championship, Boro and the Lions remains goalless.
Only half-chances for both sides so far.
A good atmosphere at the Riverside though.
Norwich 0-1 Hull City
I said there would be more goals in this and seconds later I was nearly proved right.
Norwich centre-back Shane Duffy sees his header come back off the post.
Bristol City 0-0 Preston
Bristol City have been forced into an early change at Ashton Gate with Andi Weimann taken off inside 25 minutes due to injury and Joe Williams coming on.
No shots on goal from either side yet and possession totally evenly split as it stands.

Shayne Lavery has netted both goals at Bloomfield Road where newly-relegated Blackpool lead Burton 2-0. Neil Critchley is back at the helm for the Tangerines this season.
Jack Lankester has put Cambridge ahead against Oxford while Bristol Rovers have taken the lead at Portsmouth through Luke Thomas - Rovers are 11 without a win on the opening day.
Devante Cole has his first of the season for Barnsley after bagging 16 in the last campaign. The Tykes lead Port Vale 1-0.
Norwich 0-1 Hull City
Real good flow to this one.
Onel Hernandez came close to a leveller for the home side but Angus Gunn has just had to get down smartly to sop Ozan Tufan making it 2-0 to the Tigers.
More goals in this.
Not even half an hour in and we've had seven goals in our eight Championship matches!
There could be some awkward video analysis sessions in training grounds on Monday morning...
Harry Leonard (22 mins)
Blackburn have scored again!
An error at the back by West Brom, Sammie Szmodics intercepts the ball and feeds Harry Leonard who scores his first senior goal.
Two goals in two minutes. Dreamland for Rovers.
Plymouth 1-0 Huddersfield
Brent Pilnick
BBC Sport at Home Park
Having gone a goal down so earl in this game Huddersfield are starting to find their feet.
The Pilgrims have given a couple of balls away, which the Terriers have almost capitalised on.
From joyous exuberance after the opener, the Home Park crowd are a bit more nervous now.

Aidan Stone the Notts County keeper, has been sent-off inside 20 minutes for a foul on the edge of his box, with the Magpies already trailing 1-0 at Sutton.
Being promoted from the National League might not be worth it if the past half-hour is anything to go by.
Will Wright, who only returned from Gillingham a few days ago, has put Crawley - hotly-tipped for relegation - 1-0 ahead against Bradford - hotly-tipped for promotion.
Good to have the madness of football back, eh?!
Elsewhere Niall Canavan has put Barrow 1-0 up at Tranmere.
Dilan Markanday (21 mins)
Dilan Markanday with Rovers' first strike on goal of the game and makes it count.
Receives the ball, takes his time, draws the keeper a little and fires his shot across the face of goal and in.
Imran Louza (20 mins)
It goes from bad to worse for QPR...
Imran Louza doubles Watford's lead inside 20 minutes and it's an absolute stormer.
The midfielder cuts in from the right-hand side to the middle and, with plenty of space to take his time, he bends a shot into the bottom corner from range.
Watford firmly in control.
Swansea 0-0 Birmingham
Siriki Dembele - who arrived from Bournemouth this summer - has the first shot at goal of the match for Birmingham but Carl Rushworth gets down low to save his effort.
