NFL referee has hot mic moment during Chiefs-Jaguars playoff game

LMAO good job Chiefs fans!

Quote:

NFL referee Shawn Hochuli was caught with his microphone still on during the Kansas City Chiefs and Jacksonville Jaguars AFC divisional-round game on Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium.

In the second quarter of the game with the Chiefs leading 10-7, officials threw a penalty flag on Arden Key for roughing the passer. Hochuli must’ve turned his microphone on a bit too early and was heard expressing his frustration with the noise level.

"Everybody shut up," Hochuli was heard saying before the penalty was announced.

Hochuli’s touch of honesty sent fans into a frenzy on social media.

Hochuli, the son of retired official Ed Hochuli, began his career in the NFL in 2014. In 2018, he was promoted from back judge to referee.

He also served as an official in the Pac-12 Conference, the Arena Football League and Arena Football 2. In last year’s NFC divisional-round game between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Los Angeles Rams, he gave Tom Brady an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

The noise level at Arrowhead Stadium was a point of contention before the playoff game between the Chiefs and Jaguars.

Jacksonville quarterback Trevor Lawrence said he couldn’t imagine the fans at Arrowhead Stadium being much louder than Jaguars fans during the team’s comeback win in the wild-card round.

JFC does every thread have to have at least one post referring to the game being rigged? Absolutely nothing in the OP has anything to do with rigging.

In my head I’m envisioning Butthead’s voice saying “can you just shut up”.

I figured he was telling the people around him to be quiet bc he was turning his mic on

It’s funny cause I heard it and the announcers reacted to it by abruptly stopping their commentary. You can see it in the tweets embedded in the article. I can’t post them.

That makes sense. A pretty tame hot mic moment.

Yea, there was massive shit talking going on and Hochuli didn’t want to turn on his mic until the jawing was finished.

But RiggedClown can’t help himself.

I always like hearing players scream "they're ****ing holding!"

It was not serious... dopey clowns

I figured he was talking about other players not the fans.

I heard "He's ****ing holding me!" during the Giants/Eagles game. I think that was picked up by a sideline parabolic.
Good thing Chris Jones wasn't picked up when he talked mean to Ryan, or else there might've been a suspension.

That's exactly the one I was talking about. Heard it plain as day.

Hochuli and his crew had a great day Saturday.

Yeah, I had no complaints at all about the officiating and I'm not sure how any Jags fans could either.

It was a well officiated game.

I'd take Hochuli every time. He and his crew do a nice job every time out.
