Luis Virgil Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 https://www.foxnews.com/sports/patrick-mahomes-andy-reid-handed-heavy-fines-public-criticism-of-officials-report Quote The NFL fined Reid $100,000 Sunday for "violating long-standing league rules prohibiting public criticism of game officials," according to ESPN. What the f**k. I see worse and nothing is done! Quote Mahomes was fined $50,000 for his criticism of the officials along with his "unsportsmanlike conduct during the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game against Buffalo." Mahomes shouldn't have had his tantrum. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam LaRusso Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Patrick Mahomes lost it and raged like a crazy guy. I understand his fine. Andy Reid didn't deserve a $100,000 fine! That is too much just for criticizing an official. This is so very wrong! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEDAvsFan Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Refs are oversensitive. Granted, Mahomes should have chilled out, but those fines are just too much. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay Puft Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 A referee can make the wrong call and someone speaking about it can be heavily fined. What has this game turned into? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanessa Redlynn Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 (edited) I'm willing to bet that if Patrick Mahomes didn't have his tantrum, the officials wouldn't have been mad enough to tack on ridiculous fines so high.
