Misery Index · Euphoric
49ers fans surviving 3-0 on M.Jones's one leg and Pineiro's right foot, unsure whether to celebrate or exhale.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
E.Pineiro's 35-yarder with four seconds left rescued a game that had no business being this close, the kind of finish that turns the stadium into a confessional. M.Jones found R.Pearsall for 34 to set up the late drive, which almost makes up for the earlier pass intended for him that D.Taylor-Demerson took the other way. A win is a win, but needing one to beat Arizona by a single point isn't exactly reassuring.
