What happened

Utah beat Houston 21-13 and moved to 7-0, which ought to be enough, and for most of the fanbase it nearly was. The turning point came when the staff finally fed Wayshawn instead of treating him like a decoy, and even that arrived with a grievance attached: "Wayshawn is terrific when we actually fuckin use him." Misery fell from 80 to 19, though the playcalling grumbling survived intact, one fan still demanding someone "Make the I Formation Great Again." Undefeated, and somehow annoyed about it.
