W 33-8 vs Dolphins · Sep 7, 2025
Misery Index · Euphoric
Colts fans toasting the Week 1 curse with a 33-8 beatdown and a quarterback who actually reads a defense.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
D.Jones to M.Pittman for 27 yards put it away early, and the C.Bynum interception plus the K.Moore strip-sack made Tagovailoa look completely overwhelmed before halftime. A Week 1 win this clean — every phase humming, the defense generating takeaways — is something this fanbase hasn't been allowed to enjoy in a while. The relief is doing a lot of the heavy lifting here, but 33-8 is 33-8, and the curse is officially on the shelf.
What fans said
“The colts are winning the next 10 Super Bowls and Daniel Jones will break every single record possible.”
