Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes’ Strong Warning on Trash Talking With Dad Pat Sr. Embroiled in Bills Trolling Controversy

Patrick Mahomes displays his cool demeanor as naturally as he executes a no-look pass although exceptions occur on occasion. The Kansas City Chiefs‘ golden boy wrapped up his regular season with 3,928 YDs and 26 TDs while throwing 11 INTs at 67.7%. During the postseason he performed at his best level delivering 422 YDs and 2 TDs with a 105.2 passer rating across two games. And now, the reigning Super Bowl MVP continues his remarkable routine as he has his eyes set on a 3-peat win. 

Mahomes excels in his field performance yet he doesn’t serve as the NFL’s official trash talker. During a Super Bowl week interview, Mahomes clarified that he doesn’t initiate any trash talk but rather completes it. “Yeah. I’m… I’m well, for me, I’m pretty good at—I don’t really talk trash unless I get trash-talked to me. So I’m usually pretty calm.”

That’s right. The face of the league is basically the football equivalent of “I don’t start fights, but I finish them.” Coach Andy Reid encourages his guys to show their personalities but reminds them to do it with respect for the game—something Mahomes seems to take to heart. Of course, even the most composed QBs have their moments. The officials from the December 10, 2023 game against the Buffalo Bills can tell you about that match. Kadarius Toney’s offensive offsides penalty removed the go-ahead touchdown and left the Chiefs’ victory hopes dashed. The Chiefs suffered a 20-17 defeat while Mahomes lost his composure completely. Caught on a hot mic, he let loose: “F—ing terrible. F—ing worst call I’ve ever f—ing seen.”

Oof. Not exactly PG-friendly, but can you blame him? The moment was so heated, it made the tuck rule controversy look tame. Mahomes later walked back his comments, apologizing to the refs and Josh Allen for letting his emotions get the best of him. But let’s be real—every Chiefs fan watching at home was yelling the same thing at their TV.

Mahomes keeps it classy… until he doesn’t

Alright, buckle up! You’re about to hear a story that has all the drama of a Netflix docuseries and the shade of a well-placed tweet. While Patrick Mahomes is busy carving out his legacy as one of the NFL’s most iconic quarterbacks—yep, he’s that guy who’s about to give us an NFL first-ever Super Bowl three-peat—his dad, Patrick Mahomes Sr., decided to take a detour down controversy lane. Picture this: Mahomes Sr. sitting back, watching his son and the Kansas City Chiefs head to their third straight Super Bowl (whoo, baby!). Naturally, what’s the next step? He hops on social media to throw some serious shade at the Buffalo Bills.

It all went down with this tweet: “Today is a great day to not be from Buffalo.” Boom. Talk about a mic-drop moment. Bills Mafia, still licking their wounds after their fourth playoff loss to the Chiefs in just five years (ouch, right?), wasn’t here for it. Fans lost their minds. The internet? It went into meltdown mode. Think of it as a tailgate bonfire in digital form—everyone was fired up, letting Mahomes Sr. know exactly how they felt.

But then, hold up. Before things could get really out of hand (we’re talking Buffalo fans going full-on “The Office” meme level of rage), Mahomes Sr. hit the brakes. He pulled the classic move—“I didn’t do it” with a twist. According to him, his X account was hacked. “Patrick Mahomes Sr.’s X account has been compromised,” a statement on his Instagram read. “The Mahomes family holds the utmost respect for the @BuffaloBills organization and the #BillsMafia fan base.”

Hacked, huh? Sure, we’re all familiar with the “my account was hacked” defense. Honestly, if we got a dollar for every time a celeb pulled that move, we’d be out here trying to outbid Bezos for an NFL team. But hey, who knows? Maybe someone in the Mahomes family has a secret Twitter fiend. Let’s be real, the damage was already done. Bills fans—probably washing down wings with a cold Labatt Blue—were not buying it. The original tweet sparked immediate backlash, with some calling it “classless” and others rolling their eyes and just moving on with their lives. At the end of the day, they weren’t here for the excuses.

To try and smooth things over, Mahomes Sr. doubled down (or maybe backpedaled, depending on how you see it). He went on to explain that he hasn’t had access to his X account in years, and his team was working to regain control. He even apologized for the “misunderstanding” and made it clear he has “nothing but respect for Buffalo.” “Haven’t been on Twitter/X in years. My account was hacked and I do not have access to it. Please disregard any tweets from @pmahomes,” Mahomes Sr. wrote on his Instagram Story. And while Mahomes Sr. is caught up in this whole Twitter storm, his son is preparing to chase history with the Chiefs in their quest for the NFL’s first-ever Super Bowl three-peat.

At the end of the day, Mahomes has bigger fish to fry than a Twitter meltdown. He’s aiming for history, and on February 9, all the noise—the tweets, the family controversies, the distractions—will just be background noise. What matters is the game. And if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s that Mahomes doesn’t start the trash talk, but when he finishes it… he does it with a Lombardi Trophy in hand.
