Misery Index · Miserable
Lions fans won by seven, hated every minute of it, and would like to never speak of this game again.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Survived isn't the same as convincing. J.Gibbs broke off 49 and 69-yard touchdown runs and it still took an A.Hutchinson sack in overtime to put the Giants away — a Giants team starting J.Winston, who was busy carving up the secondary for 39 yards to T.Johnson when he wasn't being ignored on questionable hits. A win counts the same in the standings, but nobody walked out of this one feeling better about Thursday.
