"NFL Coach" says Mahomes Flopped
 

Never mind it was a penalty regardless but a "NFL Coach" is mad as heck and stuff...

When Patrick Mahomes was hit late, the penalty set up the Kansas City Chiefs for the game-winning 45-yard field goal.

However, with some controversial officiating throughout the night, the call has come with some scrutiny not only among fans, but NFL coaches as well.

In fact, an NFL coach says Mahomes sold the hit in order to get the extra yards.

"That is what the owners want, $40 million skill players flopping on the ground," an NFC defensive coach told The Athletic, "drawing fouls from chemistry teachers, medical device salesmen and the like."

The coach was referring to the fact that NFL referees are actually part-time employees by the league. Retired official Ed Houchili is an attorney, a career he held throughout his entire refereeing career — his son, Shawn, is a wealth management advisor when he's not officiating games.

Mahomes was tackled by Joseph Ossai at the Bengals' 42-yard line, but the penalty cost Cincinnati 15 yards.

Had the refs eaten the whistle, the Chiefs would have had eight seconds to attempt to get closer (or go for a 60-yarder). Instead, they were right in field goal range, and Harrison Butker drilled it.

The kick sent the Chiefs to their third Super Bowl in four years, and they improved to 3-2 in their last five AFC Championships - all of which they have hosted since 2019.

more bullshit

not against you pete

****, Pete. Did we really need a thread for this?

OK, let's encourage late hits out of bounds by NOT flagging it. The man was 3+ feet out of bounds. Don't touch him.

On the patriots board they were all saying “refs shouldn’t decide games”. But they all wanted a holding call on that run


Some people might be able to pick up on the humor of that contradiction

Oh noes

Anyway

Yes......


And you apparently needed to post in it.....


You're welcome

My man's dropped to the deck and flopped like a fish like he was watching SpongeBob. Super smart move.

No. The correct answer is no. No we didn't.

Ossai hit Mahomes twice on that play. Everyone sees the initial hit as Mahomes is out of bounds, but Ossai then used his palm to give Mahomes another push after the initial hit. You can see it clearly from the angle behind the play that they showed right after the play. You can't hit a guy twice and then whine that they shouldn't have called it.

So what else did Zac Taylor say?

hope he flops us into our second lombardi in four years and the beginning of a dynasty

Is it humorous? Or a sad reflection of the human race.

in fact i hope someone paints that moment and titles the painting THE FLOP

That’s what it felt like watching the Brady Patriots. Hypocrites…

Dee Ford, the fumble in the snow against the Raiders, and a million other calls from the refs that helped them win games with Brady.

Even if he did, it worked.

It's almost like these insane jackasses think if they whine and complain enough, it's going to change the result of the game. I've honestly never seen a larger attempt by so many goddamn people to discredit a win. It's truly disgusting.

So much grit and so much effort being overshadowed by this utter garbage spewing non-stop all over the place. It seriously makes me sick to my stomach. **** every single last one of these mouth breathing dipshits. I hope we kick the ever loving shit out of Philly, and then Reid and Mahomes stand on the podium and tell every single hater to suck their rods.

What’s so funny: the NFL makes an exception for holds on “rip” rushes. So anyone crying about holding is flat wrong anyway

Why in the flying F would Mahomes NOT have sold it as much as possible? Just a smart ass play by an extremely smart player Where is the outrage over Devonta Smith acting like he caught that 4th down bomb to set up the Eagles first score?

Funny how Bengals fans forget their star safety literally FLOPPED on the field like a freaking fish to fake an injury to avoid a penalty during our regular season matchup.

It’s always going to be a penalty. Happened to us and got called too. It’s the right call.

There's a lot of petty jealousy in the world. And I don't care what an "NFC defensive coach" thinks. If he was any good, he'd be coaching for the Chiefs.

Late hit..........Yes

Exaggerated flop.......... yes

Win............ yes

It's why all those times people complained about Tamba Hali "getting held" were wrong.

Dude is so mad they wouldn't even say who the coach was.....ROFL

Stopped reading at NFC defensive coach. They hate us cause they ain't us.

Probably some no-name quality control coach from a team with a losing record.

An unnamed “defensive coach” that’s too much of a pussy to put his name behind it. Maybe Fox should stick to ball washing politicians all day and stfu about sports.

Once again, let’s blame the refs instead of “The second coming of Brady” for blowing two opportunities to drive and take the lead in the 4th quarter. But they’re not ready for the reality where Burrow choked and is not all that clutch.

Honestly it deserves its own. I get if bengals fans want to be mad about the refs. Focus energy on the block in the back miss which was a miss.

I can’t imagine anyone putting any energy whatsoever into this one. It is blatant roughing. And a qb on a bad ankle running at full speed is going to fall hard even with the lightest shove. Like how the **** do people think mahomes was supposed to fall down on that?

Refs can’t decide games tho

he didnt flop, he threw his arms up

Exactly my thought. If nothing else, once he knew he was out of bounds he would be wanting to get off that ankle as soon as possible. He may have gone down on his own for that reason but Ossai helped him along.

Damn it, Pete! I clicked that link and it gave me one of those stupid Google you can win blah blah.

The petty bullshit is only beginning, folks. Watch the AFC championship go to KC a sixth time next season and the gloves will come off.

Well it’s a good thing that Ossai decided it by being a dipshit and pushing a QB who was clearly out of bounds.

Hey guys remember when that one Bengal player literally fell over faking an injury to avoid a penalty and the whole NFL world didn't give a shit cause it was against the Chiefs?


**** em. Who gives a shit? Just go and win the SB, they'll have nothing left after that.

The call was obvious but some believe it shouldn't have been called because....what? Oh right. They wanted the Bengals to win and that made it unlikely. Well to that I say. **** you and everyone who looks like ya.

Just watched it again, there was no “block in the back”‘on skyy punt return. They bengal running slows down when sky cuts, and the chief right behind him runs into him and holds his arms up trying not to touch him

They’re never calling that nonsense. And - it was right infront of Cinci sideline, and replays showed no complaining by them. If the refs missed it so did they

Wanna say he flopped? Okay.

He flopped because these assholes refuse to call anything late when he gets hit. Doesn’t matter how blatant it is. So I’m glad he ****ing flopped.

Cry some more, bitches.

NFC coach? If you are too much of a pussy to put your name behind it then shut the hell up.

We won. The rest of the league is crying.

This is pretty much exactly what I wanted. I don't think this could have gone any better to maximize the schadenfreude...

Reported by Fox news, not even fox sports. It's probably made up or the "defensive coach" is some ball boy intern.

It was a split second decision, yes it was.

In that split second, your dumb, unaware Bengals defender decided he wanted to push a superstar, injured Qb while he was already out of bounds, thus costing his team the game.

In that same split second, our brilliant superstar Qb had the intelligence and awareness to hard sell what was already a penalty, to make sure that flag got thrown, thus putting his team in a position to win the game.

One player was smart.

One was dumb.

That's why one is a superstar and the other isn't.

****ing deal with it.

Lol, how about Burrow's flop when Frank pushed him in the chest? Joe absorbed it, then remembered he could draw a flag, skips backwards two steps and flops backwards, calling for a flag as he's falling.

QBs these days flop all the time. I hate it, but it's the league we have. It didn't look like a flop when Mahomes was shoved towards the benches, but if he did, good for him.

the great ones flop

What’s truly ridiculous?

You’ve got parts of this fan base that want to donate to a charity that Ossai runs because he’s “going through some shit right now”.

****ing what!? This dude just hit your generational QB late. **** him and **** his charity.

Whenever you see anything generic like “unnamed NFL Coach”, just assume it’s complete BS. This is ****ing laughable

LMAO Exactly. Why were y'all so mean to me when I pointed this out yesterday. It made me very sad.

I’m a face and you’re a heel. Deal with it, bro.

Another loser coach that will be looking for another job soon.

Who give a ****?

It wasnt a flop. He got hit legitimately and he threw his arms up after he hit the ground. That's different than pretending there was contact. And it's different than embellishing contact. Mahomes is such a competitor, he wanted the call that was obvious and he didnt care if he got hurt. It's too nuanced to describe.

we lost a game this season because Chris Jones may or may not have said something mean to Matt Ryan so everyone can go **** themselves

A lot of NFL coaches are stupid people. When I was younger, I clearly overestimated the mental ability needed to be an NFL coach. Now I know better. Half of them are employed because of who they know or what their last name is.

Loser internet sports people scouring the internet to look for silly things to be outraged by for some reason.

Exactly right. No different than last July when an anonymous "veteran defensive play caller" allegedly said that Mahomes was a "2" and not a "1". Yeah right. I'm sure an NFL coach REALLY said that... and with a straight face. LMAO Clickbait.

Two things at play here.

1) this is pete%gz attempt to locate anything remotely outrageous to take the microscope off the incredibly witless opinion he posted in the “Spags Did It Again” thread.

2) pete%gz is one of the main lobotomites who, one the left hand complain about all the penalties called and on the other left hand complains about penalties that he sees but the officials don’t call.

As Detox has mentioned multiple times over the last 36 hours, it shows how the completely stitch-quilted brains these complainers of rigging and steering sound to others.

Exactly. The refs have to call that unless they believed it was a flop. (it was still a really stupid push, could have ended the chiefs season)

Front page of Fox News is scouring the internet?


Loser….

Flop or not, it was still a penalty.

He got ****ing tripped. The guy's foot clipped his and he went flying. The only thing flopping is this coach's flaccid little dick as he watches other men please his wife.

But he was only 15% out of bounds and was going tuck and turn up field and stuff

Good one Farva

Pray tell what trucking along at 18 mph on a bum wheel and getting pushed in the back by a DE is supposed to look like?

Like was he supposed to somersault into a triple salchow? Fireman roll into a riverdance with the sideline crew? Stomp the yard?

FFS

Some of the comments in that twitter feed are hilarious.

Ossai learned that stupid $hit under Tom Herman when he was at UT. If you watched how those teams played you know they were dirty.

Yeah once Mahomes got past that space heater he was gonna turn up
Field for more yards.

it sucks for Ossai but he pushed Mahomes after he was clearly oob. we've been called for it, everyone gets called for it. maybe if he just bumped him it wouldn't be a penalty but the play was over

LMAO

the idea that chiefs get all the calls is p funny though

I know right? I was expecting him to hop the heater on his fake hurt ankle

Yep.

Time to play 'who cares, all refs suck, game's over, time to move on'.

I don't find this amusing! :mad:

Stop it. You all blew your load, hard, in the first quarter and came out with a whopping 6 pts. Then won on a last second field goal after being so frothy all week.

By the skiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin of your teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeth.

Next year you're coming to Cincy for the CG and you're getting your ass handed to you on a silver platter, which Zac Taylor will use pregame to eat a heap of Skyline Chili.

That gets called 10/10 times. Those upset with it are mad because it happened to benefit KC. I would bet money that those upset with it would have been demanding that call be made if it was Burrow.

There were 2 but who gives a ****. The game is over. You just look incredibly stupid for denying it.
