UPDATE<\/p>\n
3:38 PM<\/strong> PT<\/strong> — Patrick Mahomes<\/strong> is sharing his regret over how he reacted in the closing seconds of his loss to the Bills … admitting after going back and watching the video, it was, in fact, the correct call.<\/p>\n Mahomes did an interview with 610 Sports<\/strong> on Monday … where he said his actions were unacceptable, especially how he treated Josh Allen<\/strong> after the game.<\/p>\n “Obviously, you don’t ever want to react that way,” Mahomes said. “I care, man. I love this game, I love my teammates. I want to go out there and put everything on the line to win.”<\/p>\n “But obviously, can’t do that, can’t be that way toward officials or really anybody in life, so I probably regret acting like that. But, more than anything I regretted how I acted toward Josh after the game, because he had nothing to do with it.”<\/p>\n Mahomes said he’ll learn from the whole thing, as he wants to be a good role model to his young fans … and he’s ready to move on to his next opponent, the New England Patriots.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Patrick Mahomes showed a completely different side of himself after a controversial penalty eventually led to the Chiefs’ loss to the Bills on Sunday … going on a tirade on the sidelines and telling Josh Allen the call was “f***ing terrible.”<\/p>\n Trailing 17-20 with just under 1:30 left in the game, Kansas City had a wild 25-yard touchdown play involving Travis Kelce<\/strong> and Kadarius Toney<\/strong> … but it was called back after officials determined the latter lined up in the neutral zone prior to the snap.<\/p>\n The Bills went on to secure the victory … and when Mahomes headed to the bench, he had to be held back by his teammates as he unloaded on the referees for what he thought was a BS call — even throwing his helmet in frustration.<\/p>\n The tensions were just as high when Mahomes met up with Allen after the game … ’cause instead of simply saying “good game” and trotting to the locker room, the two-time Super Bowl champ continued to rant about the penalty.<\/p>\n “Wildest f***ing call I’ve ever seen,” Mahomes said while embracing Allen. “Offensive offsides in that moment, man … f***ing terrible.”<\/p>\n Of course, the consensus is Toney was visibly offsides prior to the start of the play … and while Mahomes and Chiefs head coach Andy Reid <\/strong>aren’t denying he was lined up in the neutral zone, they felt the sideline official should have either told the receiver to back up, or kept the flag in his pocket.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mahomes’ wife, Brittany<\/strong>, also shared her frustration with the call … saying the ref was the real “MVP” of the game on her Instagram story.<\/p>\n When speaking with reporters, Mahomes said it was wrong for officials to “take away greatness like that” … and it was “tough to swallow.”<\/p>\n Reid echoed his quarterback … saying it was an “embarrassing” moment for the league.<\/p>\n As for the refs’ side of the controversy, Carl Cheffers<\/strong> said players can check with officials on their alignment prior to the snap … but ultimately, it’s their own responsibility — especially because Toney’s positioning was “beyond a warning.”<\/p>\n
