Brittany Mahomes posts on Instagram sarcastically calling the referees the game's 'MVP' as husband Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs lose after a controversial offside call

Kansas City Chiefs fans were left in panic after a prime game-winning touchdown was ruined when one of their players was offside.

That play resulted in a win for the Buffalo Bills at Arrowhead Stadium, as the Chiefs were unable to score a touchdown after the penalty kick.

Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs superstar QB Patrick Mahomes, was among the angry Kansas City fans in the crowd — when she took a video of a referee and sarcastically captioned it “MVP.”

In one of the final scenes of the game, Mahomes found Travis Kelce wide open downfield. In a moment of brilliance, Kelce eluded the tacklers and found receiver Kadarius Toney open. The tight end sent the ball to Toney, who found open space and ran into the end zone for what would be a touchdown.

However, the play was called back because Toney lined up in the neutral zone – with his feet clearly on and in front of the line of scrimmage.

Mahomes was furious after the game and exploded in a way that was uncharacteristic of him. He was seen yelling at officials and complaining to Bills QB Josh Allen — calling it the “wildest damn call I've ever seen.”

While Mahomes' anger may stem from frustration over the outcome – a 20-17 loss to a team they've struggled against so many times before – anger at the officials for making objectively the right decision may have even further deterred him. bring the problems. That's especially the case when he spoke about the call at his post-match press conference, saying the referees “are human, they make mistakes.” But every week we talk about something.'

The Chiefs appeared upset with the officials for not giving them a warning that Toney was offside.

However, as former NFL referee John Parry told ESPN's Scott Van Pelt, the call was correct and it is up to Toney to contact the line judge.

“His right foot is in front of the ball and in front of the midfielder's head, so he's clearly offside,” Parry said, adding that if Toney simply checked he would probably make the adjustment.

Referee Carl Cheffers said after the match that while a warning is common, “no warning is necessary, especially when they are lined up so far offside that they are actually blocking our view of the ball.”

CBS rules analyst and former NFL referee Gene Steratore tweeted: “When a foul is this blatant and obvious, a flag should be thrown. Kadarius Toney is blatantly offside and in the neutral zone.

'You rarely see an offside penalty for a foul, but that is not because this action in #BUFvsKC is not a foul. That's because a receiver rarely plays offsides.'
