Patrick Mahomes is in hot waters after his sideline tirade against an NFL official during the Kansas City Chiefs’ week 14 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The epic showdown’s penultimate moments saw the Chiefs breaking into a synchronized gridiron dance to score the final TD. But it was negated due to an offside penalty on Kadarius Toney.

What followed next was a sideline screaming match between an NFL official and Mahomes. Complete with helmet smashing and all. Mahomes followed it up by expressing that he wasn’t happy with the decision, only to retrace his steps two days later and agree with the call. Also joining the bandwagon was Chiefs’ head coach, Andy Reid, who expressed his displeasure with the call.
