Chapter 385 Hail Mary
Danger, extremely dangerous!
With a wolf in front of him and a tiger behind him, Smith was surrounded heavily in a narrow pocket. He was in danger every step of the way and had no breathing room at all.
It was the time to adjust in two steps. Friars had successfully got rid of the striker entanglement and flew towards Smith in two steps.
Smith's lateral movement is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth!
fighting!
That was the only thought in Smith's mind, he wanted to give it a try.
then.
Step forward, lunge forward.
brake!
Seeing that Smith and Friars were about to collide, Smith made an emergency brake to control his body and stopped in front of Friars——
Then, stagger the position slightly.
Friars had no reservations and went all out to sack Smith accurately, but when the incident happened suddenly, he couldn't control his body.
He tried to brake, but he slipped and lost control completely.
Rubbing shoulders, misalignment.
Friars only had time to touch Smith with his arm before he flew out.
Smith held his breath, held it tightly, and refused to relax. After encountering Friars' collision, his center of gravity swayed, his body swayed, but he still refused to compromise. He continued to persist with a mental force, which was the twinkling in his eyes. Unprecedented determination.
Turn around and scan the whole place.
Kick off the ground and step forward.
He can do it, just like the first long pass of the second half.
Use force. Turn. Waving arms.
The whole body is like a taut bow and arrow, fully drawn, the power is completely transmitted, and finally it is thrown hard.
Whoosh.
The rugby ball pierced the sky and flew in a thrilling arc.
The next second, Smith was hit by a crossing high-speed train and fell to the ground, but he did not waver and stared at the football.
Fly, soar high, soar freely.
…
Levi, give it your full attention.
He stood at the back of a shotgun formation and was focused.
Following the kick-off call, without hesitation, he cut into the slot immediately and rushed forward in a straight line along the slot.
He passed by Friars in an instant, but without stopping, he struggled to catch up with Kelsey who was also advancing vertically; in the blink of an eye, he had already rushed five yards.
Linebacker Harrison followed Levi step by step and did not rush forward. Instead, he kept a little distance and advanced in a straight line.
At this moment, just as his footsteps crossed the thirty-five yard line, Levi cut inside and rushed towards Harrison.
Harrison was startled and put his whole body on guard.
Unexpectedly, Levi ignored Harrison and completed a cross run with Hill on the other side——
The two people each continued to run wildly along the diagonal line, fully demonstrating their speed advantage.
this?
Harrison hesitated for a moment, but the other linebacker Van Noy did not.
The cornerbacks and linebackers are responsible for man-marking, and the safeties are responsible for zone defense, so no matter what happens, they just need to keep their eyes on their opponents.
From all aspects, Kelsey has an absolute size advantage against cornerback Gilmore; so Levi may act as a decoy to contain the force, but in the end Smith will still pass the ball to Kelsey.
The current running route also proves this——
The three wide receivers and one running back were running in a dizzying and intertwined way, but Kelsey was the only one who remained unmoved and sprinted vertically.
So, even though Van Noy wanted to play against Levi, he still fulfilled his duty, followed Hill closely and refused to be fooled.
Harrison noticed Van Noy following Hill's footsteps and rushed out after Levi without hesitation.
However.
Harrison had just started and crossed the 30-yard line. Before he could reach the 25-yard line, Levi actually came back and came back.
Harrison:? ? ?
Not only Harrison, but Van Noy was also confused.
Levi and Hill once again completed a cross-change run. The two ran a "Z"-shaped cross route in the central hinterland, firmly taking the initiative.
In the process of continuous sudden stops and turns, Van Noy and Harrison's centers of gravity were shaken to varying degrees, and there was some hesitation in their steps.
Harrison tried to cling.
However, Levi saw an opportunity and wasn't prepared to miss it.
Kick off, speed up, get rid of.
In one step, two steps, and seemingly just three steps, Levi was already rushing forward along the diagonal path, quickly approaching the twenty-yard line, and opening up a clear gap with Harrison. Harrison, Oops!
Gritting his teeth, Harrison kept up with him at full speed, but just after taking two steps, he saw Levi and Kelsey on this side, who had been rushing forward in a straight line, merged.
Damn it!
Harrison sensed something was wrong, but still took half a step slower.
Levi and Kelsey completed a cross-position swap, and Kelsey rushed directly toward Harrison; while Gilmore, who was marking Kelsey, subconsciously followed suit.
Then--
Li Wei successfully shook off his tail and rode away.
Kick off the ground, exert your strength, and run wildly.
Levi shook off the baggage, unleashed his full speed, and sprinted along the sideline with all his strength.
Edgewalker, recreated at Gillette Stadium.
Huh!
The entire Gillette Stadium took a breath of cold air. The authorities and onlookers were fascinated. They immediately noticed the figure that turned into a stream of light.
Danger, danger, danger!
Although Gilmore was also aware of the crisis, he immediately gave up on Kelsey and chased after him. Harrison, who was left behind, was helplessly entangled with Kelsey; but Gilmore's speed was obviously unable to keep up with Levi, and he watched helplessly. The gap widens.
Levi ran faster and faster, faster and faster——
Fifteen yards.
Ten yards.
Five yards.
The end zone is within reach.
Not only the Zhong family, but also another safety guard McCawtry has also come over. They are waiting to seize the position and seize the opportunity in advance——
This is the most dangerous and difficult part of Hail Mary.
The offense must take advantage of the fire.
So, who is Smith passing to?
Kelsey?
No, Levi.
"Fourth gear, seven yards, nine seconds!"
"Kansas in trouble, New England pounces."
"Smith is getting rid of it, Smith is surviving, and Smith still hasn't given up!"
"God, Friars missed the tackle and Smith regained space to pass."
"Smith passed the ball, Smith aimed for the end zone, thirty-six yards aimed for the end zone, Hail Mary, we are witnessing Smith challenging Hail Mary."
"The passing target is—"
"Levi?"
"Levi went unmarked. God, how did he do that?"
"Gilmore was trying to catch up, but Levi's speed was unstoppable."
"Levi, fifteen yards, ten yards! Five yards!"
"Levi gets in the end zone!"
"The Zhong family and McCawtry teamed up to defend. Levi, Levi took the initiative to hit the Zhong family."
"Smith's Hail Mary pass was aimed at the blind spot diagonally above the right side of the end zone. The passing distance was a little wide, but the control was still not precise enough."
"God, three people! Three people jumping at the same time!"
One against two.
What should Levi do?
The first step is to calm down.
The second step is to get stuck in position.
Use the position of one defensive player to block interference from another defensive player.
Then, trust yourself and take the leap.
Levi turned around, pressed his back against the Zhong family, avoided McCoutry, and deliberately relied all his body weight on the Zhong family to suppress his take-off. His eyes were firmly on the football, looking for the right time to take off.
In front of his eyes, he could see a pair of hands, which should be McCawtry who took off early, actively reaching for the football; but Levi did not take off in a hurry.
After waiting for half a beat and withstanding the Zhong family, he took off again.
Although the Zhong family also took off immediately, Levi still took the lead. When McCawtry began to fall and the Zhong family was still rising——
Reach out and embrace.
He caught it.
