Chapter 312: Leading the Master of War


Chapter 312 Leading the Fighting Master
The much-anticipated duel, which was the focus of attention, turned out to be a failure. The Kansas Chiefs pressed the Oakland Raiders to the ground and rubbed them hard, but this also proved one point again——

This game between rivals in the same district is always surprising.

Just like people didn't expect the Oakland Raiders to upset the Kansas Chiefs six weeks ago to end their four-game losing streak, people also didn't expect that when they met the Kansas Chiefs again this time, they actually completely defeated the Oakland Raiders to end their wave. The dark days of six consecutive losses are back.

This season, the two meetings between Kansas and Oakland were indeed unexpected, continuing a fine tradition.

but--

"What happened in this short week?"

At the post-game press conference, reporters couldn't wait to ask the question that everyone was curious about. The Kansas Chiefs were completely different this week.

Levi, who once again stood under the spotlight, said calmly, "Nothing happened."

"Huh?" The reporter didn't believe it.

"We still train and prepare normally, and there are no special changes; we still maintain our belief, we still believe that we are one of the most competitive teams in the league, and we are still preparing for the playoffs."

"That's all."

Although people always try to find the key to turning the situation around, in the world of competitive sports, such a turning point is often not seen:

A touchdown, an interception, and an opponent's impact in adversity are enough to ignite belief and subvert the situation.

Regardless of players or teams, they will not suddenly become stronger overnight. Intangible but real factors such as belief, state, and feeling are the key to quantitative changes and qualitative changes in competitive sports.

Levi is honest, but the reporters obviously don't believe it:
Haha, it would be weird to believe it.

In the past six weeks, with the Kansas Chiefs at their lowest point, major media outlets have also been adding insult to injury, splitting the team apart inside and out, and criticizing the team. How high they once praised Levi, they are now throwing him down so badly. .

However, now, looking at Levi with a calm face in front of them, the reporters one by one felt guilty and firmly believed that this was Levi's revenge.

However, things have turned, and after the Kansas City Chiefs' hearty victory, they also became soft-spoken.

That doesn’t mean journalists will give up.

"Levi, in this game, you appeared twice as a wide receiver and played a key role. Is this a secret weapon that you have honed?"

"Oh, I thought in the fourth quarter, our star of tomorrow proved that he was worthy of this title. He would be very sad when you say that."

After saying that, Levi spread his hands to make a strangulation gesture, and looked up at the sky to hide the non-existent tears, which made him even more happy.

Reporter: Why are you still performing?

Then.

At this moment, the crowd suddenly raised a hand high upright, standing out from the crowd to attract everyone's attention, and then threw a heavy weight.

"Levi, in this game, you once again gave a wonderful performance, running the ball for 133 yards, receiving 122 yards, and scoring four touchdowns. Now some people think that you have entered the competition for MVP. What do you think?"

Regular season MVP?

A rookie actually entered the regular season MVP discussion, which is a big deal!
Generally speaking, there is no relationship between rookie players and the selection of regular season MVP. Considering that the challenges faced by rookies are completely different, rookie players are often divided into separate departments to compete.

Even if a rookie performs well, it has nothing to do with the regular season MVP; of course, more importantly, rookies often cannot show such competitiveness. What's more, the person being discussed is a running back! Not the quarterback!
So, the reporter's question was thrown out, and the other reporters were all shocked. The press conference hall was abuzz with whispers, and the atmosphere was so lively that Li Wei, the person involved, was left aside in the cold. , this scene is a bit funny.

Levi is not in a hurry——

When he heard the news at Chuchu, he was briefly shocked. He didn't expect that his name could be associated with the regular season MVP. This was a surprise. The first season of his career was indeed full of surprises; but then, he saw I couldn't help but laugh at the scene before me:

It seemed that other reporters were as shocked as he was.

This means that this is the first time they have heard of it. It is estimated that someone is behind it, adding Levi to the discussion of regular season MVP, and immediately pushing Levi to the forefront again.

Then, when the crowd's attention focused on Levi again, Levi had regained his composure, and the smile on his lips slightly rose.

"It seems that I should work harder."

A "again" can be understood as Levi preparing to compete for the regular season MVP, or it can also be understood as Levi seeing through the reporters' confusion and shock and not believing that Levi joined the regular season MVP competition, so he emphasized that he should continue to work hard.

Regardless of whether it was the former or the latter, the buzz at the scene spread like this. This press conference was like a pebble, spreading throughout the entire league in the blink of an eye.

Regular season MVP?

Levi, rookie, running back, is this serious?
But why not?
As of the thirteenth week of the regular season, Levi's performance is undoubtedly the top player in the league's first-tier pyramid. His performance on the field is the best example, and the league has also recognized it.

First, the rookie aspect.

The Rookie of the Year in September and Rookie of the Year in October all belong to Levi, and the Rookie of the Year in November was won by quarterback Deshaun Watson.

Secondly, in terms of the league, there is a selection including all players, the best of the week and the best of the month; the National League and the American League have separate selections, the best offensive player, the best defensive player and the best special teams player.

Among them, in the American League, Levi won the Offensive Player of the Week four times, ahead of quarterback Brady who won the Offensive Player of the Week three times.

Moreover, Levi also won the Offensive Player of the Year in September and the Offensive Player of the Month in October at the same time, becoming the first rookie in the NFL in half a century to win the Rookie of the Year and the American League/National League Offensive Player of the Year for two consecutive months. .

One by one, it's all history.

If these are not enough, then you can see more historical records in terms of actual data. Even leaving aside Levi's Asian identity, he is making history with every step he takes in the NFL.

1,636 yards and 18 touchdowns.

Every aspect is a record.

In terms of yardage on the ground, Levi surpassed Peterson and became the running back in NFL history who accumulated more than 1,000 yards in the fewest games——

Peterson took eight games, while Levi only took seven.

At the same time, Levi became the running back who gained the most yards without losing the ball in his rookie season. He was not only efficient and energetic, but also made no mistakes.

Of course, this is still not all. With three weeks left in the regular season, Levi still has the opportunity to continue to set records and write a magnificent and bright chapter in the long history of the NFL.

Don't forget, this is the passing era, this is the era when running backs are not as good as dogs.

This is the most amazing thing.
