Kansas Metropolis Chiefs head coach Andy Reid admitted to reporters Monday that huge receiver Kadarius Toney did certainly line up offsides previous to the workforce’s would-be go-ahead landing within the fourth quarter towards the Buffalo Payments on Sunday.
Each Reid and quarterback Patrick Mahomes blasted officers postgame, with the previous saying: “It’s kind of embarrassing for the Nationwide Soccer League for that to happen.”
The one noticeable distinction between the 65-year-old’s feedback on Sunday vs. his phrases on Monday is that he is now saying that Toney was offsides, albeit by an inch or two.
Given the historical past of back-and-forth dramas between Mahomes and Payments quarterback Josh Allen up to now, it is no certainty that the Chiefs would’ve received even when Sunday’s lateral landing had counted. Followers of each groups will not quickly neglect how the AFC divisional playoff tilt ended in January 2022, when each groups have been in a position to rating within the remaining 17 seconds of regulation and Mahomes discovered tight finish Travis Kelce for the game-winner in time beyond regulation.
There isn’t any query that if the referee missed Toney’s offsides, let it slide or if the third-year professional had merely checked with the official, that Kansas Metropolis would’ve been in nice place to maneuver to 9-4. As an alternative, the Chiefs have now misplaced two in a row and are simply 8-5 with a one-game lead over the Denver Broncos within the AFC West.
