- [Baldinger] @chiefs blew the final 16 seconds of regulation. The @patriots are giving you the out to the sidelines. Take the underneath throw and have plenty of “clock” left to take another shot to the end zone. #BaldysBreakdowns https://twitter.com/baldynfl/status/1087357781773115392 139 comments nfl

- In a matchup of 1-11 teams in 1993, the Patriots beat the Bengals 7-2. The Bengals only score came when the Patriots intentionally snapped the ball out of the back of the end zone instead of punting from their own 1-yard line with 21 seconds left. It's the only 7-2 final score in NFL history. https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1993/12/13/patriots-7-bengals-2/cdef2b1b-17ae-406a-a261-f0da03c1b2f7/ 67 comments nfl

- [Perry] Little levity at the end of the game. Patriots wanted a delay of game penalty there to back themselves up and take time off. Jets decline it. Brandon Bolden commits an intentional false start (his second of the season). Jets decline it. Patriots forced to finally punt it. https://twitter.com/philaperry/status/1186477089278582784?s=21 16 comments nfl
