Misery Index · Despair
Cardinals fans treating a 27-22 win like a loss after blowing a 24-point lead to the Panthers.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Up 27-3 and somehow sweating out the final possession after S.Martin's onside kick actually worked. The win gets banked thanks to C.Campbell's sack of B.Young and a grounding flag, but the J.Sweat strip-sack recovery in the first half feels like a relic from a different game entirely. Gannon's team spent three quarters proving it was the better roster and one quarter proving none of that is guaranteed to hold. The scoreboard says W. Nobody in the building is acting like it.
What fans said
“Fuck that whole game everyone should be embarrassed. We did the “atleast we won” last week this time it’s unacceptable.”
