Brittany Mahomes is one of the most well-known spouses in the NFL. It isn’t a surprise when Patrick Mahomes is one of the best quarterbacks in the league and she attends pretty much every game. The big controversy in the game was the offensive offsides call that negated an insane play that would have given the Chiefs the lead late. She took to social media to post her thoughts on the call.

Brittany Mahomes Bashes Refs In Kansas City Chiefs Game
In her Instagram story, she zoomed in on a referee on the field with the text “MVP” over the official. She shared the outrage that so many on the Chiefs had after the game. Mahomes himself questioned the call as did head coach Andy Reid, The quarterback lamented that we were “talking about the refs” again instead of talking about the game. While I understand the frustration of Mahomes, his wife, and the rest of the team, it is tough to feel sympathy for the Chiefs.
It Was Offsides
I get how frustrating that is. A really cool play was negated due to a penalty that really didn’t affect the play. However, the rules don’t state that penalties should only be called when they affect the play. Kadarius Toney is very clearly offside. Toney doesn’t seem to check with the official either. It is an absolute boneheaded play from the Chiefs who have consistently shot themselves in the foot all year. To me, this seems like the frustration of the performance of the team boiling over.
There have been plenty of bad calls this season but this wasn’t one of them. It’s a bad play by the Chiefs that cost them the game. There were plenty of opportunities to win the game and blaming the officials is a bad look. This will be a topic of conversation all week in the NFL sphere.
