Misery Index · Despair
Giants fans grieving Skattebo's ankle, the refs, the Eagles, and a season that's barely halfway done.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
S.Barkley's 65-yard touchdown on the game's opening drive set the tone, and the J.Dart-to-C.Skattebo strike briefly suggested a pulse before the night turned medical and officiating-flavored. Losing Skattebo in a game already tilting toward Philadelphia is the kind of compounding injury that defines lost seasons, not just lost Sundays. The scoreboard says 38-20; the real damage is whatever's left of the roster and the fanbase's patience.
