Misery Index · Despair
Titans fans already drafting Callahan's pink slip after a winnable game died on 4 turnovers and 12 points.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Three takeaways, a muffed punt recovered by D.Mausi, a J.Simmons strip-sack — four Denver giveaways handed to the offense, and the scoreboard still read 12. C.Ward got sacked on back-to-back critical possessions, including the Z.Allen takedown at midfield in the fourth, and the three-pass sequence from the TEN 7 before halftime will live in infamy. The defense did its job. The question is whether anyone upstairs noticed.
