Giants fans letting themselves believe in J.Dart after he shut up the DJ truthers in prime time against Dallas.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse. ● biggest swings
What happened
J.Dart's coming-out party — the deep ball to M.Nabers, the 19-yard dime to M.Fields, the touchdown strike to I.Likely — turned a Sunday night against Dallas into something the fanbase didn't know it was allowed to have. J.Holland's pick of D.Prescott sealed the vibe shift, and even T.Tracy's fumble at the DAL 21 couldn't derail it. The scary part isn't the win. It's how quickly hope becomes a load-bearing wall.
