Patriots’ Matthew Judon fires shots at Patrick Mahomes’ Chiefs after controversial officiating from refs

Following the Kansas City Chiefs' 27-17 victory over the New England Patriots, Patriots' linebacker Matthew Judon voiced his discontent at Patrick Mahomes and the officiating.

The controversy arose from a questionable penalty for defensive holding called against the Patriots. Judon took a shot at Mahomes and hinted that he was on the same side as the referees.

In response to the contentious call, a fan on social media platform X photoshopped a picture of Mahomes kissing a referee.

Judon quote-tweeted it and said:

"I see no lies."

This criticism from Judon comes in the wake of Mahomes complaining about the officiating in the previous week's game against Buffalo. Mahomes had lamented poor calls, including an offsides penalty against wide receiver Kadarius Toney that affected the outcome of the game.

Following today's game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the New England Patriots, each team got closer to respective milestones.

For Kansas City, they snapped a two-game skid, while getting a game closer to clinching a playoff spot by improving to 9-5 on the season. They have a two-game lead in the AFC West over the second-place Denver Broncos who are 7-7.

For the Patriots, they fell to 3-11 and are closer to picking number one overall in next year's draft. They are the worst team in the AFC and with the Carolina Panthers winning today and improving to 2-12, the Patriots are one game away from holding the number one overall pick.

There's still plenty of football left with three weeks left in the season, with every game being very crucial at this point.
