"After seeing the video, I see why people thought it was a bigger deal than it actually was. As an offensive player and someone that wants to score every single time you’re on the field, I wanted to take a chance to get it down the field," Mahomes said on "The Drive." "They made the decision, not just coach Beiniemy, I think it was Coach Reid and the whole offensive staff that we were in a good spot. … We didn’t want to make a big mistake there at the half. 

"That’s their job, and I have to be better at knowing when that is the right decision, but at the same time I always want to score, that’s just who I am. … Sometimes there’s a little disagreement here or there, but we know we’re trying to do whatever we can to win. … We got to the locker room and we started talking, it was like it didn’t even happen."
