Misery Index · Miserable
Saints fans toasting a competitive loss to SF while begging anyone to get J.Johnson off the field.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Down by five with the ball, S.Rattler's third-down sack-fumble at the NO 34 was recovered by C.Ruiz, but the drive still stalled, and a N.Bosa sack three minutes later sealed it. The J.Jennings 42-yard touchdown from M.Jones was the dagger, on what looked an awful lot like a route the secondary had seen all afternoon. Competitive into the fourth, again. Close enough to hurt, not close enough to matter.
What fans said
“Second week in a row we look competitive into the late fourth with this shit team.”
