Chapter 1144 Two Dragons Playing with Pearls

The NFL, inside and out, up and down, is a total sensation, with eyes bustling on the Kansas City Chiefs to the next level.

At this point, some people may say, as for that?

The Indianapolis Colts' main quarterback announced his retirement without warning before the season started, but they still found a way to win, right?

The Mahomes-less Kansas Chiefs' consecutive defeats of the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings are indeed worthy of attention, but neither team made the playoffs last season, and the Kansas Chiefs' victory didn't need to be. There’s a fuss and the whole nation is paying attention.

Isn't this the result of Goodell continuing to fuel the situation behind the scenes?

To some extent, this view is not wrong.

However, behind the upsurge of attention in the NFL is not driven by Goodell, but the league's structure, which affects the form of the season at every moment.

In the ninth week of the regular season, the New England Patriots lost.

The New England Patriots, who had previously maintained an undefeated record, are undoubtedly still the favorites to win the championship this season. Although their ability to draw hatred is still unique in the league, the number one candidate who can compete with the Kansas Chiefs is clearly the newcomer of the old and strong team. English patriot.

This season, Belichick and Brady are still targeting the championship.

However, this week, a small twist occurred.

The Baltimore Ravens upset the New England Patriots and upended the league.

First, the Baltimore Ravens continue to rise.

After adjustments during the offseason last week, the Baltimore Ravens played at home against the New England Patriots, who had maintained an undefeated record this season. Harbaugh continued its upward momentum since the season and once again demonstrated its heritage as a traditional strong team in the American League.

In fact, Lamar Jackson, the "regular season MVP strong candidate", restrained his sharpness in this game. His performance of 17 of 23 passes, 163 yards, and one touchdown was far from amazing; but the Baltimore Ravens gained more. Praise——

Pass-run balance.

The moment the Baltimore Ravens no longer desperately put all the responsibility and weight on Jackson's young shoulders, they can fully unleash Jackson's potential and allow the energy of other parts of the team to shine. This is a strong team. A sign of maturity.

In this game, Hubble played smart and beautifully, and taught Belichick a good lesson.

Secondly, the New England Patriots hit a wall.

Over the years, the New England Patriots' roster has been patchy and dilapidated, relying on Belichick and Brady to drag it forward. Gronkowski's retirement this offseason is undoubtedly a heavy blow. Once again It makes one feel the age of the New England Patriots.

However, the New England Patriots have a deep heritage and have relied on a shabby lineup to continue to stand at the forefront of competition in the American League over the years. This year is no exception. The eight-game winning streak to start the season is still not to be underestimated.

In the game against the Baltimore Ravens, a young and energetic team, losing is not terrible. What is really terrible is that the New England Patriots' shortcomings and weaknesses on both ends of the offense and defense are fully exposed, and the old broken car is on the verge of falling apart.

Including Brady, the New England Patriots have almost no highlights.

No wonder after the game, the commentator said in the live broadcast:

"Belichick and Brady might be really tired."

The final score was "20:37".

The Baltimore Ravens won a great victory, and it was no ordinary victory. It was a hearty victory that suppressed the lead in all aspects.

From offense to defense, Harper's Baltimore Ravens indeed played a beautiful game. The New England Patriots suffered a rare comprehensive defeat in the past few years. They were at a disadvantage in all aspects and could not see the possibility of victory.

As a result, the questions before us surfaced one by one - are the New England Patriots just tired? The momentum of the previous eight consecutive victories cannot be underestimated. After adjustments, they can rebound quickly?

Or maybe this defeat exposed the truth that the New England Patriots are strong on the outside and weak on the inside, and Belichick and Brady may no longer be able to continue?

Have the Baltimore Ravens really undergone a comprehensive transformation? After this battle, the season record improved to six wins and two losses. The growth of Hubble and Jackson is obvious to all!

The key point is, can they use the rookie bonus period to continue to rise? Can Jackson lead the Baltimore Ravens back to the Super Bowl?

Also, if the Baltimore Ravens face the Kansas City Chiefs again, what will the game situation and results be like?

In the American League, will the Baltimore Ravens replace the New England Patriots and become the biggest threat to the Kansas City Chiefs this season, or will the Baltimore Ravens and the New England Patriots form a double insurance to surround the Kansas City Chiefs?

The pattern of the American League suddenly became full of suspense.

It is precisely because of this that the league reacted violently to the Kansas Chiefs' continued winning streak. At this moment, people realized one thing:

Although the Kansas Chiefs are a target, the other 31 teams are not joining forces to suppress the Kansas Chiefs. There is also competition between teams, and the fighting between teams may also consume their own strength.

Who knows, whether the Kansas City Chiefs will be able to reap the benefits?

At this point, only one team in the American League, the Kansas City Chiefs, maintains an undefeated record; while the San Francisco 49ers, who maintain an undefeated aura in the National League, continue to advance.

After narrowly defeating the Arizona Cardinals led by No. 1 draft pick quarterback Murray by three points, the San Francisco 49ers also maintained an unbeatable season with eight consecutive victories——

They have a bye in the fourth week of the regular season, so they have one fewer game than the Kansas City Chiefs.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

This is the third consecutive season, and halfway through the schedule, the leaders of the National League are completely different.

In the 2017 season, the Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings led the way. In the 2018 season, the Los Angeles Rams and New Orleans Saints led the way. In the 2019 season, the San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers temporarily led the way.

The season is still halfway through, and no one can be sure what will happen next; but there is no doubt that the National League has been shuffled for three consecutive seasons and completely chaotic, making the competitive landscape full of surprises and surprises.

Originally, the league had high hopes for the Los Angeles Rams, expecting the combination of Goff and Donald to make a comeback and continue to stage a powerful showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs.

However, after three consecutive wins to start the season, they encountered a three-game losing streak, and the Los Angeles Rams inevitably faced a bottleneck. Fortunately, they gained a foothold with two consecutive wins and entered the bye week with a record of five wins and three losses.

Now, the Los Angeles Rams still maintain a competitive position in the playoffs, but the National League West has become another dead division:

Arizona Cardinals. Seattle Seahawks. San Francisco 49ers.

Everyone is tough.

The pattern of the National League West may even affect the playoff situation like the American League West last season——

The Kansas Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers both broke out and completely disrupted the lineup.

so.

Although the Los Angeles Rams are currently facing some difficulties, they still remain competitive; at the same time, another representative of the National League West, the San Francisco 49ers, emerged to compete with the Kansas City Chiefs at the league level.

"National League West VS American League West", for the second consecutive year, the scene of two dragons playing with each other lit up the excitement of the 2019 season.
