Mac Jones finds Mike Gesicki and Patriots shock Bills with 12 seconds left

This smelled like another bad ending for the New England Patriots on Sunday at Gillette Stadium.

They had seen the Buffalo Bills score 15 points in 3:39 to take the lead in the AFC East clash.

Mac Jones could drive the team for a field goal to force overtime, or he could shut up the critics and lead a TD drive.

That is what Jones did, finding Mike Gesicki with a 1-yard TD pass with 12 seconds left. The PAT made it 29-25 and the Patriots had their second victory of the season.

The winning drive took 1:46 and covered 75 yards over 8 plays.

It was Jones’ second TD pass of the fourth quarter that saw the teams score a combined 28 points.

The day began with all sorts of questions about Bill Belichick and the Patriots.

It ended with people having to wonder if the Bills are a deep playoff contender. They are 4-3 and barely beat the Giants at home and lost to New England in Week 7.

Belichick joins George Halas and Don Shula with 300 regular-season victories.
