“I Was Hot and Emotional”: ‘Regretful’ Patrick Mahomes Apologizes to Josh Allen and Fans for His Sideline Meltdown

After the Week 14 loss to the Buffalo Bills, brutal fans labeled Patrick Mahomes as a ‘crybaby.’ However, what unfolded on Sunday, December 10th, was sufficient to evoke tears from an ardent supporter of the Red Army. That evening proved to be heart-wrenching for Kansas City Chiefs fans, the team, and especially Patrick Mahomes, who openly expressed his dismay twice, over the flag incident at Arrowhead Stadium.

The whole world saw Mahomes slamming his helmet, crying, and yelling at the referees and Bills players on the sidelines after the 17-20 loss. In a post-game conference, the reigning MVP stated his love for his teammates being the reason for his behavior on the sidelines. However, this time, in his appearance in a new interview, Mahomes regretted what he did, revealing an important 5-word lesson he got to learn in his career.

Patrick Mahomes is picking it up from the past!

Patrick Mahomes possesses the most impressive talents in the NFL world, including his leadership and passion for the game. However, his dedication fell quite off on Sunday at the sidelines when he was visibly fumed with the results. Nevertheless, today, he displayed another commendable characteristic of his personality. After the loss against the Bills last Sunday, and the yelling and crying episode of Mahomes on the sidelines, the two-time MVP appeared on “The Drive” podcast. During the podcast, the quarterback talked about his reaction to the viral video from the sidelines and reflected on his behavior during the game.

The reigning Super Bowl champion admitted that he watched a bit of the video showing his emotional reaction. Mahomes acknowledged that such reactions are not appropriate, saying, “I love this game. I love my teammates, and I want to go out there and put everything on the line to win. But obviously I can’t do that. I mean, can’t be that way towards officials or really anybody in life. So I probably regretted acting like that.” Furthermore, the 28-year-old particularly regretted how he treated Josh Allen after the game, realizing it wasn’t fair to him “because he had nothing to do with it. And so, I was still hot and emotional.”

Patrick Mahomes emphasized the importance of setting a good example, especially for kids watching the game. Despite the frustration of a hard-fought game coming down to controversial calls, he sees it as a learning experience to become a better person and player in the future, realizing the important lesson that “it’s part of the game.”

Apart from this regretful interview, Mahomes also showed his concern for his teammates in another interview, highlighting the results being “tough to swallow.”

What did Patrick Mahomes say in the post-game conference?

Patrick Mahomes was really fumed after losing to the Bills. The officials made a call that canceled an amazing touchdown when Travis Kelce threw a pass to Kadarius Toney. The touchdown could have given the Chiefs a lead of 24-20 with 1:12 time left on the clock.

Mahomes felt it was hard to accept because he believed the game should be decided by what happens on the field, not by officials making mistakes. He also mentioned that he’s never seen this kind of penalty called without a warning before and is worried that these calls affect the outcome of games. Therefore, he doesn’t want this for the NFL or football in general.

Nevertheless, the quarterback has now realized his mistake and has learned a valuable lesson in his career from the incident. Well, that’s also a mark of a true sportsman.
