Chapter 1067: A sack
"This is a battle between the teams, not about me."
Crennel said.
"The Kansas Chiefs are two-time defending champions and remain undefeated in the current season. There is no doubt that they are the upper hand. We need to go all out to win, but the team is ready."
Obviously, Crennel did not want to discuss the grudges between himself and the Kansas City Chiefs, nor did he want to discuss returning to Arrowhead Stadium.
However, the reporters still persisted, and they asked Kleiner again:
Who do you think can win?
"Houston Texans."
Krennel's answer was crisp and clear, without any hesitation; at the same time, there was no joking or joking, and his serious expression revealed some of his true inner thoughts.
Compared with Krennel, the other focus figure seems much more relaxed.
Watt was joking with a calm face as he faced the media siege.
"I know that so far this season, my numbers are lower than expected, but I'm ready to put a lot of numbers on my next opponents."
"Which is better, three sacks, or four? As for the tackles, I am more relaxed. Let's do five sacks first to liven up the atmosphere."
"Patrick, rookies, are you ready?"
The arrogant tone contained ridicule and joking, and the reporters could feel the familiarity and intimacy between Watt and Levi.
"Of course, the victory belongs to us. After the game, I will treat them to a meal to comfort their wounded hearts."
Watt's free and heroic tone made the reporters burst into laughter.
So, what about Levi?
"Mom, I'm afraid."
Levi's response made all reporters burst into laughter.
"There is no doubt that I believe they have the ability to defeat any opponent. The only question is whether they can show it in the game. JJ, this is not a Hollywood movie. I am tired of the last-second rescue scene. Let's change it." Well, if you want to exert your strength, you have to do it early.”
Haha, hahaha.
Laughing like thunder.
Obviously, Levi is complaining about the difficulty of the Houston Texans game——
In four of the five games, the score difference was within one touchdown, and the suspense of victory was not revealed until the final moments of the fourth quarter.
Just like in Hollywood movies, you have to wait until the last second of the bomb countdown before cutting the detonation wire.
You come and go, laughing and cursing.
The close friendship between Levi and Watt can also be felt across the space.
However, all this made Watson want to vomit.
Does anyone still remember Watson on the Daming Lake?
From the NCAA to the draft to the NFL rookie season, Watson is Levi's old enemy throughout, and they are evenly matched tit for tat.
As a result, what now?
Entering the third grade, everyone was discussing the collision between Jackson and Levi, and even the feud between Garoppolo and Levi, but no one remembered that the Houston Texans still had Watson, a figure waiting to defeat Levi.
Finally, Watson finally waited for the opportunity for the Houston Texans to face the Kansas City Chiefs again. After the season schedule was released, he has been grinding his teeth, waiting and waiting, just waiting for this game.
Then what?
It's Crennel again, and it's Watt again. The focus is not on Watson at all. Watson is also hehe. Are they looking down on him?
Watson couldn't control himself.
"I will beat him."
The reporter didn't ask any questions, but Watson still posted the post without any end.
The scene was so stunned that no one knew what happened. They watched Watson leave the scene angrily. Finally, someone was slow to react:
Ah, the 2016 Heisman Trophy, Watson lost to Levi.
2016?
That was really a distant memory. The reporters suddenly realized that it seemed that someone had been sharpening their knives and it was their fault that they had forgotten this explosive point.
But the point is, what level is Watson? What level is Levi?
Now the two cannot be compared at all. The reporters all seem to be disinterested, and they don't even have a strong desire to fan the flames. Of course, in the world of competitive sports, anything is possible. What if the Houston Texans upset the Kansas City Chiefs? Then things will be different.
It turns out that everyone across the league is eager to defeat the Kansas Chiefs, but obviously this is not an easy task.
"3:17".
The visiting team goes first and the home team goes last.
In the first quarter, the Kansas City Chiefs dominated the game and opened up the gap strongly.
From Watson to Watt to Crennel, the performance was lackluster.
If the Houston Texans want to defeat the Kansas Chiefs, defense is the key. They do not have the ability to compete offensively with Mahomes and Levi. Head coach O'Brien is also a typical defensive type.
So, Watt is key.
However, Watt has indeed fluctuated significantly this season.
Keeping fighting with injuries is one of the reasons, but Watt refuses to shift the responsibility to injuries. In the past few years, he was able to dominate the game even with injuries. Now it is more of the negative effects of age and a broken body, so he The ability to adjust status and adjust rhythm is declining.
Even the frequency of state fluctuations in the same game is increasing.
Watt knew that if they wanted to have a chance of defeating the Kansas Chiefs, he must start a counterattack and drive the entire team——
Just like Levi.
Rugby is a sport where relying on the strength of one person often cannot change victory or defeat, but the responsibility of the team leader is to inspire the team to unite the team and allow the team to find the determination and belief to face difficulties at the spiritual level.
At the critical moment, Watt stepped forward.
In the second quarter of the game, Watt was like the Hulk, red-eyed.
"Watt, raid."
"This raid came without warning and completely caught the Kansas Chief off guard. Levi went back and tried to stop Watt."
"Wow!"
"Unstoppable!"
"Watt directly knocked away Levi, and the tiger's posture of going down the mountain did not leave any chance to his opponent."
"Capture!"
"Watt made his first sack of the game, and Mahomes couldn't get rid of it."
"Watt, it is indeed Watt, the beast has awakened!"
After the sack, Watt did not roar or celebrate. Instead, he pulled Levi and Mahomes up with a smile on his face, patted their shoulders in a friendly manner, then raised his right index finger and made a gesture:
1.
The first sack, the first tackle.
Levi laughed dumbly.
They had played against each other on offense and defense in the 2017 season, and Levi had experienced the power of Watt; moreover, Levi and Donald had collided head-on, and he knew that the abilities of these top players should not be underestimated.
But Levi is not inferior. Now he is no longer the rookie he was back then, and he has even made more progress compared to the Super Bowl at the beginning of the year.
He believes in himself and the team.
However, despite Levi's full vigilance, he soon discovered that he had underestimated Watt.
To be precise, the entire league underestimated Watt.
The first half of the game is over.
"23:17".
Entering halftime, the Houston Texans took the lead.
Not only did they take the lead, but they also shut down the Kansas Chiefs offensive team, which has been unbeatable this season, in the second quarter!
