The start to the season hasn’t been what Mac Jones and the New England Patriots had hoped for but Sunday’s win over the Buffalo Bills dug the team out of a deep ditch it had put itself in from weeks prior.
After being moved to the bench twice, losing three straight games, and being maligned by media and fans for weeks, Jones stepped up in the best performance of his career as he led a late-game comeback ending with a touchdown pass with 12 seconds remaining.
As Jones secured the victory, the NFL world took to social media to share their reactions to the big win.

Impressive game-winning drive by Mac Jones. Quick reads, accurate throws and a TD in a situation when the Patriots had faltered earlier in the season.

A stunner here in Foxborough. Impressive, gutsy performance for Mac Jones and the Patriots offense

Why did the Patriots look more efficient and productive on Sunday?

Mac Jones to Mike Gesicki. TOUCHDOWN.
His first with the #Patriots. Both he and Mac hit the Griddy.
New England has the lead with 12 seconds to go.
Foxborough is rocking.
