Patrick Mahomes raised the ‘urgency’ in Chiefs practice all week before his meltdown on the field over offside touchdown vs Bills, claims NFL touchline reporter: ‘He’s a fiery guy – we just don’t ever see it’

Patrick Mahomes reportedly showed a sense of urgency all week at Chiefs practice before suffering a setback on the field against the Bills.

Mahomes let the red fog fall after Kansas City’s controversial loss to Buffalo on Sunday, when the hosts failed to score a final touchdown at Arrowhead due to an offensive offsides call.

After making a superb run into the end zone with just over a minute to play, Chiefs starter Kadarius Toney was on the offside before they intercepted the ball, meaning his potential the winning touchdown was ruled out. .

The decision, which has since proven correct, did not sit well with Mahomes, who threw his helmet in disgust and had to be restrained by his teammates, who protested vehemently.

The Kansas City guard came under fire for his antics, with FOX Sports reporter Skip Bayless saying he was surprised by his “messed up behavior.”

The officials overturned the touchdown because Karadius Toney (circled) was offside.

However, after witnessing the fallout on the sideline at Arrowhead, NFL reporter James Palmer said Mahomes was known behind the scenes as a “spunky guy” and often “lost his mind” either in the locker room or on the practice field.

“That was one of the things I noticed immediately when the game ended,” Palmer said of the controversy NFL Plus show “Insiders”.

“He was held back by almost the entire offensive line, each of them had a hand on Patrick Mahomes, trying to contain him.

“Now, if you talk to your teammates, and I talked to a couple of them in the locker room, Patrick Mahomes, as we all know, is a hot-headed guy. We just never see it.

“It happened in the locker room during half-time, it happened during the training week when he lost his mind. But this is the first time that fans and everyone who watches the NFL really see it in that way.

“I heard that this week he kind of felt a sense of urgency. They knew what was at stake and what had happened over the last few weeks, and I think that plays into it as well.”

In addition to Mahomes, Chiefs head coach Andy Reid also came under fire for calling the offside call “embarrassing” after the loss.

Behind the scenes, Mahomes was said to be the “fiery guy” that the public finally saw on Sunday.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid admitted Tony didn’t check with the referees to see if he was offside.

However, Reed admitted on Monday that Toney did not check with the referees whether he was offside or not before the controversial play.

“Usually he (Tony) just looks towards the touchline and gets the nod and this time he just didn’t get it,” he said.

“So this will be a coaching point. Just be sure to check with the guy on the side to make sure you’re on the same page.

“He doesn’t intentionally go offside. Look, he was two inches away from becoming legal.

“You can make both sides of the argument for both teams. I think the league is trying to fix that.”
