Patrick Mahomes has been an interception machine, but not all of it has been his fault.
Coming into Sunday’s game against Washington, Mahomes had thrown six interceptions on the year. He added one more on Sunday, but it only came about after Tyreek Hill tipped the ball into the defender’s hands. It clearly should have been a catch, as the receiver was able to get both hands on it. Hill usually makes those catches, but he didn’t on this occasion, and it cost both his team and his quarterback.
For the people that wanted to blame Mahomes, his mom, Randi, took to Twitter to make sure they knew it was not his fault on that play.
“Ok PEOPLE that should not be an interception on the QB… that should be a fumble or anything else.. just putting it out there.. GO CHIEFS..”
Mahomes has had a few of his interceptions go off his own receivers’ hands this season. What has usually been a reliable receiving corps has not been all that reliable for their MVP quarterback so far in 2021.
