Misery Index · Uneasy
Colts fans are 5-1 and still can't shake the feeling Franklin and the third-down defense will eventually cost them.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
A 31-27 win that required a J.Brissett incompletion to T.McBride on the final drive to seal it, which tells you most of what you need to know about how this one felt. D.Jones threw the J.Downs touchdown that flipped the fourth quarter, but also the earlier interception that handed Arizona a short field. The fanbase is enjoying 5-1 and sole possession of the South; whether the defense can keep surviving these finishes is a different question.
