Cardinals

The emotional rollercoaster

Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.

What happened

A win is a win, and K.Murray's 45-yard strike to M.Harrison plus T.Benson's 52-yard burst should feel like the start of something. Instead, the dominant fan note is exhaustion with Petzing's late-game conservatism, the same script where leads shrink and defenses have to bail it out — which they did, capped by the stop on A.Kamara and S.Rattler's incompletion to C.Olave at the gun. Week 1 produced a W and a familiar unease about who's actually steering this thing.
