Antonio Gibson returned a 90-yard kickoff for a touchdown that flipped momentum and helped the Patriots beat the Dolphins 33-27. The return came after Miami produced a 74-yard punt return on the previous drive. Gibson said he talked to himself before the play and then found a crease up the sideline, outrunning defenders to the endzone.

"I was like he's slow as hell,"
