Online Community Erupts Over Video Showing Patrick Mahomes Pressuring Refs to Change Call [VIDEO].

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — October 7, 2025, 04:45 PM (GMT+7)

The NFL community is ablaze with outrage following the release of a viral video capturing Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes pressuring referees to reverse a call during the team’s Week 5 Monday Night Football clash against the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 6, 2025, at EverBank Stadium. The footage, which has ignited a firestorm on social media, has left fans furious and questioning the integrity of the game.

The controversial moment occurred in the first quarter when Mahomes connected with Travis Kelce on a two-yard touchdown pass, Kelce’s second score of the season. Initially, officials flagged JuJu Smith-Schuster for offensive pass interference (OPI) on a pick play, but after Mahomes approached the crew and engaged in a heated discussion, head referee Brad Rogers announced the flag was picked up, upholding the touchdown. Mic’d up cameras caught Mahomes pleading his case, with audible exchanges suggesting influence over the decision.

The video, shared widely on X with over 2 million views in hours, has sparked a deluge of reactions. Fans vented their frustration:

  • “Mahomes straight-up told the refs what to do—disgraceful! 😡” one user posted.

  • “LOL, the whole Chiefs team ran over to argue—rigged game!” another commented.

  • “If Mahomes whines enough, refs always cave. This is a joke,” a third wrote.

  • “He bullied the ref into dropping the flag—Jaguars got robbed!” added another.

Jaguars supporters, still reeling from the 31-24 loss that dropped them to 1-4, flooded platforms with calls for a review.

    Chiefs Kingdom defended Mahomes, arguing it was strategic play, but the league has yet to respond. Analysts on ESPN suggested the NFL might investigate under its officiating review process. As the Chiefs (5-0) celebrate their undefeated start, the video has cast a shadow, with Mahomes’ actions under scrutiny. “This isn’t about football—it’s about fairness,” one fan tweeted.

    49ers Shocked After Brock Purdy and His Wife Secretly Deliver 5,000 Winter Care Packages to Struggling Families in San Francisco – A Quiet Act That Is Melting the Entire Bay Area
    San Francisco, California – Today In the middle of the most pressure-packed stretch of the season, Brock Purdy and his wife Jenna Purdy left the entire Bay Area community speechless by quietly funding 5,000 winter care packages for struggling families across San Francisco. No press release, no cameras, no media trailing them – just two people, one silent gesture, and a heart determined to bring warmth to those fighting through the city’s freezing winter. Each package contained winter coats, thermal blankets, gloves, and other cold-weather essentials. Everything was delivered through shelters and nonprofits in the Mission District, Tenderloin, and Oakland. Workers at the distribution sites said many families broke down in tears when they received the gifts, because they never expected anyone in the middle of such a hectic world to care about them with such genuine love. As the story spread, Brock Purdy shared a heartfelt message to the 49ers Faithful: “San Francisco has given Jenna and me more than we could ever count. This is where we’ve grown up, where we’ve learned what it truly means to be part of a community. If we can bring even a little warmth to people who are struggling right now, that’s something we do with all our hearts. This city always knows how to stand beside each other, and we just wanted to add our small part to that.” A statement that made 49ers fans love the young couple even more. The San Francisco community immediately poured out admiration. They called it the clearest example yet of Purdy’s leadership and character off the field. He’s not just the guy who leads the 49ers offense with grit – he’s the guy who spends his time and heart on the city’s most vulnerable. For many Faithful, what makes them proud isn’t just the pinpoint throws – it’s the heart Purdy has for the place he fights for every single week. With 5,000 packages delivered and thousands of people now a little warmer, Brock and Jenna Purdy have left an unforgettable mark on this holiday season in the Bay Area. Their act is inspiring countless others to keep spreading kindness throughout the community. While Purdy remains the on-field leader guiding the team, the way he and his wife treat the city off the field is what’s building a truly special legacy for the San Francisco 49ers and the entire NFL.
