Misery Index · Despair
Bengals fans openly praying for the end of the Zac Taylor era after a shutout in the snow officially buried the season.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Shut out at home in the cold, and the second quarter alone told the whole story: R.Ali's 30-yard touchdown from L.Jackson, a Z.Flowers scoring strike, and a J.Burrow interception by M.Humphrey that snuffed out any answer. J.Battle's pick was the lone bright spot in a game already decided. The offense managed zero points for fans sitting in unbrushed seats, and the only real question left is how high the housecleaning goes.
What fans said
“Clean. Fucking. House. All the way to the top.”
