Chapter 829 Turbulent Waves
Tottering and precarious, like a dance on a high rope.
However, its lightness, agility and elegance easily took away the breath of the entire audience.
Until the red afterimage crossed the thirty-yard line in a majestic manner, unable to maintain balance any longer, and floated to the ground, ending the performance.
ah!
The entire Arrowhead Stadium.
Ahhhh!
All of Kansas City.
It boiled all over, roaring and roaring like roaring waves crashing onto the shore.
It's Levi again.
Who would have thought that in the seven-yard dilemma on third gear, the Kansas Chiefs would actually choose a short screen pass to cover a fake pass and run, and once again handed the football to Levi. Mahomes and Levi even completed a tacit cooperation, with a thunderous pass. The posture destroyed the nascent momentum of the New England Patriots and took the initiative to win in one fell swoop.
At this moment, Li Wei was the king, accepting the worship of his ministers!
However, Levi was not satisfied. His murderous eyes scanned the entire audience. After a brief moment of venting, he turned around and returned to the formation——
The game is not over yet.
Smoke filled the air.
The New England Patriots defense is a little frustrated and confused.
Although they had just used two efficient defenses to force the opponent into a third long yardage; overall, their defense was completely suppressed in overtime, and they began to fall behind from a tactical level, with no matchup, no help defense, and loopholes. It's like a sieve.
The Kansas Chiefs' push was completely dominant and they completely controlled the game.
Keep this up and the game could be over in the next thirty seconds.
Breathless, sweaty and tired, they looked at Belichick.
The legendary coach was expressionless, still calm and composed. He seemed completely unaware of the crisis and immediately launched his command plan——
Just look at Levi's actions and you will know that the Kansas Chiefs will not leave any breathing room. They will continue their state and aim for a touchdown in the end zone.
Therefore, there is no time to be confused now.
The New England Patriots can't lose.
Belichick still remembers that they had just advanced to the red zone, but Berry intercepted Brady and completely turned the situation around.
Even further away, there's the Super Bowl against the Atlanta Falcons, trailing by 25 points at worst, and the Super Bowl against the Seattle Seahawks, who were on the one-yard line in front of the end zone preparing to win the game.
Have the New England Patriots been timid in these moments?
No.
The Kansas Chiefs in front of them are basically a replica of the Seattle Seahawks that year. They are also the defending champions, they are still standing on the edge of the cliff of the game, they are also bursting out with incredible energy, relying on the offensive team to take the initiative and forcing the New England Patriots defensive team. To the edge of despair.
At that time, on the one-yard line during the countdown, the Seattle Seahawks only had to score a touchdown to defeat the Super Bowl and become the second team to defend the Super Bowl since the millennium. However, the New England Patriots intercepted Changed history and snatched the championship from the Seattle Seahawks.
It's that simple.
Therefore, facing the Kansas Chiefs, Belichick did not panic at all.
At the first moment, Belichick launched his layout, scanning every move on the court with his eyes like a hawk, fully controlling the trends.
"Pressure!"
Belichick remains steadfast in his strategy.
Not paranoia, but a belief that constant pressure can crush Mahomes.
Maybe he can't crush Levi. The rookie has proven his strong and tough nerves time and time again; but Mahomes is still too young. In the regular season this season, Mahomes' interceptions have always been a problem. In Week 6, the New England Patriots turned the tables by intercepting Mahomes.
Just once, like facing Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson.
Therefore, as he continued to rush the ball and put pressure on him, Belichick's words were particularly crisp.
"attack!"
The Kansas Chiefs didn't waste any time, quickly announced the kickoff and entered the game. Mahomes immediately felt the pressure. His fingertips had just touched the rough particles of the football. He didn't even have time to blink. The sound of impact mixed with the rolling heat wave was already coming towards his face with claws and claws, and there was a roar.
Pull back, pull back, keep pulling back.
Mahomes stepped back continuously to open up space, but still had no time to observe. He immediately realized the New England Patriots' six-man pass rush; and this time Belichick adjusted his pass rush strategy and relied on Changes in stance and tempo, front tear-away pocket protection.
Directly ahead, oncoming——
Hightower. Roberts.
The two men broke in like the irrational writers in "The Shining" and got out of the crack, waving their arms with ferocious faces.
Aggressive!
Mahomes subconsciously scans the short pass area for passing targets.
There's Damien, and there's Kelsey.
This time, the Kansas Chiefs used a dual running back tactic. Levi and Damien were on the field at the same time, and they set up a shotgun formation. They used the dual running backs as wide receivers from the beginning, trying to use this position to deceive the game. Licek.
On the surface, they used a shotgun formation and dual running back tactics to cover their fake running tactics; but in fact, it was a real shotgun passing tactic, with both running backs running out, and five receiving points scattered throughout the field.
However, during the game, Belichick was unmoved and completely focused on me. He once again used pass rushing pressure to tear the pocket and successfully open up the situation.
At the same time, the second-line defense was fully contracted, and the matchup was guarded——
A carrot and a pit.
Completely one-on-one, close defense.
This often means that Kelce can have the upper hand against the cornerback as a tight end, so Mahomes immediately looks for Kelce.
However, Kelce was surrounded by two players forming a double team.
Mahomes was startled, but then realized, wait, who is not being targeted?
It shouldn't be Levi or Hill. Could it be Watkins?
In the blink of an eye, thoughts were raging, and Mahomes had no time to continue looking for Damien, because Kelsey was trapped in a double-team, which meant that if Kelsey was selected, his passing would need to be accurate, otherwise There is a risk of plagiarism.
Mahomes doesn't want to be intercepted at this juncture.
But the point is, Hightower and Roberts don't give Mahomes room to adjust.
Two ghosts knock on the door!
Two figures came towards him from the front, forcing Mahomes to retract his sight and focus on what was in front of him. Faced with the crisis of sacking, his whole body tensed up.
He dodged left and right, only to find that there was no way to escape.
During the continuous retreat, Mahomes pretended to be ready to break through to the left, but he made a feint and pulled back to the right. An emergency stop and change of direction bought him some precious time, and he quickly pulled horizontally to the right.
Roberts took a step forward, preparing to make a sack, but he blocked Hightower's path. The two of them were about to stumble and roll into a ball.
Mahomes actually pulled back again, narrowly slipping under Roberts's arms and moving laterally to the left again.
Roberts tried to keep up, moving to his right.
Hightower reacted a little slower and still moved to his left side.
Bang!
Hightower and Roberts collided.
Chance!
