Falcons

The emotional rollercoaster

Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.

What happened

A 26-19 win in Arizona, sealed by C.Henderson's late pick of J.Brissett, and somehow the mood is worse. K.Cousins found K.Pitts for a touchdown and the defense did its job against a tanking opponent, which is exactly the problem — beating bad teams after the playoff math collapsed is the most Falcons outcome imaginable. The lingering worry isn't this game; it's whether these meaningless wins are quietly building a case to bring Raheem back.
