Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs lost 20-17 to the Buffalo Bills in gut-wrenching fashion on Sunday. This was the Chiefs’ third loss in their last four games and second on the trot. They dropped to 8-5, 1.5 games behind second-placed Miami Dolphins and two games behind AFC leaders, the 10-3 Baltimore Ravens, in the race for a first-round bye in the playoffs.
The Chiefs had seemingly taken the lead late in the game when Travis Kelce caught a pass from Mahomes and threw a lateral to wide receiver Kadarius Toney, who walked the ball into the endzone. However, the play was called back as Toney was flagged for an offside penalty. Mahomes then threw three incomplete passes on the trot as the Chiefs turned the ball over on downs, and the Bills took home the win. The superstar quarterback was visibly upset after his failed fourth down pass attempt and had to be held back by his teammates from confronting the sideline judge. Fans on social media were left unimpressed by Mahomes’ behavior and trolled the quarterback for his reaction.
