Misery Index · Miserable
Steelers fans won by five and somehow spent the night accusing the refs of trying to lose it for them.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Pittsburgh wins, and somehow the fanbase looks like it lost. C.Boswell doinked a 37-yarder off the upright with the game in reach, J.Goff carved the secondary on the K.Raymond 27-yard touchdown and the late A.St. Brown 24-yarder to the 12, and a missed pick that everyone in the stadium saw kept Detroit breathing. The A.Rodgers-to-K.Gainwell 45-yard strike papered over a lot. A win is a win, but nobody's nervous system believes it yet.
What fans said
“LMAO for that ref to make the call as a touchdown at the end of the game only to pull the rug out from the entire stadium”
