          The New England Patriots don't normally lose games like this.

          On the road against the Las Vegas Raiders, the Patriots clawed back from a 17-3 deficit to take the lead 24-17. Though the Raiders came back to tie it, the Patriots had to be feeling good about themselves heading into overtime.

          Only, things never got to overtime.

          On the final play of the game, Rhamondre Stevenson lateraled to Jakobi Meyers with no time remaining. Meyers threw the ball backwards in the direction of QB Mac Jones ... except former Patriot Chandler Jones was there instead. Chandler caught the ball, ran over Mac and walked off with a game-winning touchdown.

          On social media, NFL players were gobsmacked at the absurdity of the ending.
