There were a lot of things different about the September 12 matchup between the Cleveland Browns and Kansas City Chiefs than the January 17 game.
Unfortunately, one similarity was that Patrick Mahomes’ family members were on social media during the game.
This time, Mahomes’ fiancee Brittany Matthews and the couple’s child were at Arrowhead.
We lost count at 13 Tweets from Matthews sharing her thoughts as the game was being played.
Naturally, Matthews had plenty to say about the Ronnie Harrison incident.
Excuse me, don’t be pushing people from the start sir

He just hit our coach? I’m confused 🤔

Certainly, in the stadium, there had to be pandemonium when the Ronnie Harrison incident occurred.
The Kansas City faithful may not have seen that there was a little push from the Chiefs running back coach Greg Lewis.
As everyone knows, Harrison was ejected while no punishment was assessed on Lewis.
Neither Harrison nor Lewis has publicly spoken about the incident.
Painful Memories
Mahomes’ mother Randi was highly vocal on Twitter during the playoff game.
Randi was extremely upset with linebacker Mack Wilson whom she believed leveled a dirty hit on Mahomes which resulted in him leaving the game with a concussion.
In the end, there was no bad blood between Mahomes and Wilson.
Interestingly enough, Mahomes and Wilson were seen at the end of Sunday’s game talking.
It is difficult to imagine the emotions players’ loved ones experience during the course of a game, but it may not be advisable to air it out on Twitter.

In contrast, Baker’s wife, Emily, is pretty quiet on social media.
We did hear an inspiring message after this weekend’s heartbreaking loss.
It was uttered in just a few simple words but said a lot.
We’ll be just fine… 🤍🧡🏈

Patrick Mahomes is a great player, but if the Browns and Chiefs meet again later this year in a playoff scenario, we hope he tells his family to stay off social media during the game.
55 pushed Harrison back onto Chiefs player. Their coach mistakenly thought Harrison purposely stepped on that player. Their coach pushed Harrison, he pushed back. Harrison tossed, but so should have coach.
Harrison knew exactly what he was doing and continued to step on CEH chest after the push back. That’s why he got shoved by KC’s Coach Lewis and when you look at his demeanor on the sideline afterwards, he meant too!!
You are a schwanz!!Ronnie was tryi g to get out of the pile when a Chief pushed him back onto it.It’s on film–watch like I die.That shove from the coach should have been penalized, as it was. Correctly.Then the league got into it.Starting safety thrown out 5 plays in?Reminds me of Saints/Rams
The CLEVELAND BROWNS seems to get the short end when it came down to Officiating crew but The CLEVELAND BROWNS will Prevail in the end, GOO BROWNS!
Pathetic use of a social media platform.
Look I think it was a misunderstanding and we need to move past it
In the game that was very high intensity any action on either side would be emotional reaction that only two good teams would have as competitiors im a firm believer that the first action deserves to be the blame in which the coach had no bussiness touching another player the referee had it right at first and then change their minds because of social media or whatever the reason was the mr. Harrison should not been thrown out the coach should of been out there’s no excuse for the coach he is suppose to be setting an example not starting a fight.
Salty Browns fans. Leave Patrick’s family out of it, they are fans just like you on here saying stuff about the game. The fact that they are truthful comments hurts yalls little feelings. I hope they continue to say the truth about your garbage dirty players. The end of the day how does that loss taste to yall. Pretty salty I imagine. You always have been and always will be a joke of a team.
Dude you coach pushed our player and got nothing really did you watch the game and dirty players we are far from that by any means you coaching dtaff cant touch other players Cleveland is not dirty at all i think your team is dirty so ahut the hell up
Tim Couch calling Cleveland players dirty quit being bitter because you was a bust in the nfl & as far as Mahomes family being left alone how about they keep off social media & they should do there homework on that incident the coach pushed him first. Tim Couch your probably bagging groceries somewhere so shut your mouth about the Browns
If anyone really cared to look at the replay you would see that Harrison was trying to step away when a Kansas City player (Number 52) ran into him causing him to temporally lose his balance. That was what caused him to hit his food against the thigh of the KC player on the ground and then supposedly step on the hand if indeed he did since the replay doesn’t show that. He was never stepping on the other guys chest. The coach was absolutely wrong. A Woody Hayes moment. Harrison instinctively responded. I would have done the same thing if some body not associated with the play came at me. Say what you want Chiefs but if the roles were reversed, you would be calling for the coach to be suspended.
I really don’t care which way this goes, but it really doesn’t seem right from what I initially saw. In the original game footage, the camera shows the player on the ground purposely pulling his left knee over, to throw Harrison off balance, as he tried to stand back up, causing him to fall back forward and step on him, followed by the shove from the coach. It may have been in part a bit of a retaliation, in that he possibly could have pulled a Hollywood, and just fallen forward on his face, but chose to instead step on him, but the player on the ground definitely interfered with him trying to extricate his foot. Since that time, all the footage hides this knee action. All he did was react to being tripped and shoved, and they make him at fault. Why have they cut the lower portion of the shot out. Somebody feeling guilty? Didn’t anybody else see this, before they cropped the bottom of the video out of the replays?
Hey I was born a Browns fan but life takes twists and turns, then whoa all the sudden i live in Missouri surrounded by Chiefs fans.
Ok so i just say KC is my 2nd team.
2nd they are too and after all the doggin on the Browns players from the rude KC relatives and fans i am ashamed to even say i am around these fans. Browns played very well . Baker was on his game and i got to give a shout out to Kareem Hunt….style!
The league always sticks there nose in it only to find out they got it wrong in New York & then apologize the next day but it doesn’t fix what the New York offficials screwed up we lost an important player to our defense because the NFL wants to control everything like our Government does this Country (USA) is going to crap
