Who was Patrick Mahomes yelling at after the Chiefs loss to the Bills?

Mahomes expressed frustration with the referees, yelling at them for their decision in the game’s last moments. His equipment, his helmet, more specifically, suffered the consequences on the CBS broadcast after a penalty wiped out the Chiefs’ lead, eventually leading to their loss of 20-17 to the Buffalo Bills at home.

The reason behind the helmet smash

The Kansas City Chiefs seemed to have scored the winning touchdown with just 1:12 left. Quarterback Mahomes threw a deep pass to Travis Kelce, whom three defenders of the Buffalo Bills closely chased. Kelce then threw a backward pass to Kadarius Toney, who ran into the end zone without being tackled, covering 49 yards. Unfortunately, the touchdown was rejected as Toney was found to be offside.

At the start of the play, it appeared that Toney had lined up in the neutral zone, which is against the rules, resulting in a penalty.

The drive of the Kansas City Chiefs ended on a disappointing note as their quarterback, Mahomes, threw three consecutive incompletions, leading to a turnover on downs. Mahomes was visibly upset with a penalty called against Toney. Fans on social media speculated that Mahomes was angry because a defensive end player for the Buffalo Bills, Von Miller, appeared to be offside two plays after the Toney penalty, but the officials failed to call it.

Kansas City lost the game, 20-17, and fell to 8-5 on the season.

Mahomes completed 25 out of 43 passes, gaining 271 yards through the air. He threw one touchdown pass and one interception during the game. Kelce was the leading receiver for the Chiefs, making six catches for 83 yards.

Rashee Rice also had a great game, catching seven passes for 72 yards, including a touchdown. Rice’s catch was crucial in helping the Chiefs move the ball down the field before the play that provoked Mahomes’ reaction.
