Being an NFL fan is hard, but spare a thought for New England Patriots fan Jerry Edmund. He attened the Patriots clash against the Las Vegas Raiders last Sunday at Allegiant Stadium and witnessed a rather unique game.

All of the post-game talk was about that now-infamous last play of the game that saw Jakobi Meyers throw a lateral in which Chandler Jones interceptioned with no time left and ran into the endzone to win the game.

While that was crazy enough, after the game, video surfaced of Edmund and a Raiders fan who was taking it upon herself to get in his face after the game to celebrate a Raiders win.

Who is currently the favorite for the Super Bowl?

Edmund stayed cool and calm when, as others said online, they wouldn't have. Watch the video below and admire Edmund's willpower after witnessing one of the worst losses in recent memory.

Many have admired Edmunds' actions. It turns out that Patriots owner Robert Kraft is one of them. Kraft saw the above video and has invited Edmund to the game against the Cincinatti Bengals on Saturday. Edmund will be on the field for pregame warmups as well.

It is a great gesture from owner Robert Kraft. Edmund will be on the field meeting some of his favorite players on Saturday.


Can the Patriots make the playoffs after Raiders loss?

New England is currently on the outside looking in at the AFC playoff seedings. With the Buffalo Bills holding first place in the AFC East with an 11-3 record, New England's only hope is to win out and hope that Baltimore, the Los Angeles Chargers and the Miami Dolphins falter.

It does seem like a long shot, but New England is still in with a shot. However, the remaining schedule for Bill Belichick's team is rather tough. Joe Burrow and the Bengals are up next. Then, they face the Miami Dolphins followed by the Bills. That's tough.

So to win all three games seems unlikely given what we have seen throughout the year, but the task isn't impossible, as long as Meyers doesn't throw any more lateral passes with time expiring.
