Nick Folk kicked a 51-yard field goal to give the New England Patriots the win in the closing seconds of their Week 9 matchup against the New York Jets.

Patriots quarterback Cam Newton ran for two touchdowns and Rex Burkhead added one more as the team fought back from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to win the game.

New England doesn’t drop too far out of contention for a playoff spot but they’re not sitting pretty at 3-5 and in third place in the AFC East.

But a bad interception with the lead and failing to do anything with the ball with under 2 minutes to play cost the team down the stretch and helped the Patriots get a final chance to march down the field.

After the game was over, Jets fans cheered their team – almost sarcastically – as they lost their ninth straight.
