Holding a slim 19-17 lead with 1:47 left, the Patriots had possession at their own nine-yard-line holding out for one final gasp. However, Raiders Pro Bowl edge rusher Maxx Crosby would have none of it. On third-and-15, Crosby blew through the right side of the Patriots line before wrapping up quarterback Mac Jones for a game-sealing safety.
