Misery Index · Despair
Steelers fans are openly begging the Rooneys to end the Tomlin era before Baltimore finishes the job.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
A.Rodgers found J.Warren for 65 yards down to the SEA 5 in the third, a real chance to make it a game — two snaps later he threw a pick to D.Kendrick in the end zone. Then SEA recovered the ensuing kickoff for a touchdown to bury it. The defense made S.Darnold look comfortable for most of the night, and the offense couldn't cash in when it mattered. Two weeks in, the margin for hope is already thinning.
What fans said
“That fucking 3rd and goal TD from the 20 has to be one of the most pathetic defensive efforts I've ever seen”
