The New England Patriots defeated the Buffalo Bills by a 29-25 margin in Sunday’s game between division rivals.
It was a thrilling game in all aspects, as tight end Mike Gesicki secured the touchdown on a game-winning, comeback drive for the Patriots late in the fourth quarter.
The touchdown was one of many causes of celebration on a night where Mac Jones had one of his best performances. He threw for 272 yards and recorded two touchdowns in a stellar effort. The running game did their part as well, recording 96 yards on the day.
And credit to the defensive unit for being able to stymie Allen for most of the game. This was New England’s first win over Buffalo since the 2021 season, and it certainly created some buzz on Twitter.
Here are some of the best reactions:
I wanna cry for Mac, dude deserved that

The 1-5 New England Patriots just beat the 4-2 Buffalo Bills.
I guess the Bills just aren’t that good. 🤷🏻♂️

It’s hard for me to believe that I was just rooting for a New England Patriots team to win a game. I despised them for decades. #BUFvsNE

Do not get it twisted. I hate the Patriots and Bills. But to beat Buffalo at home must be hella special for that team and their fans. Also- Miami thanks you New England.

There’s been questions all season long if Mac Jones can lead the Patriots to a comeback win.
He just marched New England down the field to beat their divisional rival with a walk-off.
One hell of a game to build off of. Hats off to Mac. He balled.#NFL | #BUFvsNE | #ForeverNE pic.twitter.com/6TiR7PYH6h
