Chargers fans calling for Q.Johnston's deportation while mourning a generational fumble of an offseason.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse. ● biggest swings
What happened
Five takeaways, sixteen points, and a J.Herbert interception by C.Gardner-Johnson returned 41 yards from the BUF 1 that effectively torched any path to the upset. The defense did enough — forcing a J.Allen pick to G.Smith, stripping him on a scramble recovered by T.Tuipulotu, even getting bailed out when T.Johnson's 43-yard score came back on a D.Knox hold. The offense converted none of it, and the fanbase has already picked its scapegoat.
