Randi Mahomes, Patrick’s mother, was upset with one interception being credited to the quarterback. She tweeted that easily catchable passes that are missed and intercepted shouldn’t count as interceptions, rather a fumble.
"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," Randi Mahomes tweeted.
