Lions fans up 24 on Arizona and still finding refs, Shep, and the Vikings to complain about.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
J.Goff shredded Arizona again — now 10-1 against them — with S.LaPorta's 38-yard score and a pair of J.Williams touchdowns turning this into a laugher before halftime. J.Gibbs ran like the checkbook was watching, and the only real scare came early when B.Baker got home for a 12-yard sack. Five games in, no interceptions, 45 points on the road, and the fanbase still can't quite believe the shoe isn't about to drop.
What fans said
“Jared "Cardinals Slayer" Goff is now 10-1 against them.”

“PR hasn't posted it yet but Jared Goff is the only quarterback in NFL history to throw for 1450+ yards, 12 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions through 5 games of a season.”
