Chapter 470: A perfect jade with slight flaws
“Everything is as expected.”
"In this Super Bowl, the offenses of the two teams will bear heavy responsibilities, and Peterson and Reid's on-the-spot tactical layout will determine the course of the game."
"But at the same time, the quality of the defensive teams of the two teams will play a key role. Even if they are not perfect, even if they have shortcomings, their performance at the critical moment is the key to victory."
"In the opening stage, the offensive team took the initiative, but the defensive team laid the bottom line."
"'3:3', the score is not giving up an inch. Both teams have shown good competitive status, and the intensity of the next offensive and defensive duel will be further enhanced."
In the commentary box, Collinsworth looked particularly excited and excited.
Before the game, people kept repeating over and over again that this was a dark horse showdown. Even if they didn’t mean it that way, they also revealed a foreshadowing of lowering expectations, as if to remind the audience:
The Super Bowl may not be as exciting as imagined.
However, Collinsworth doesn’t think so.
really!
From the beginning, the two teams were full of firepower, opening up the situation on both offense and defense, and continuing their season performance, relying on the team rather than individuals to start the game. Even on a highly anticipated stage like the Super Bowl, team strength allowed the players to stay focused. Get into the zone quickly.
The game was breathtakingly exciting from the first second.
And, this is just the beginning.
Not only Collinsworth thinks so, Michaels, the senior commentator in charge of tactical commentary, can't help but be excited and excited to try.
"It can be seen from the start that the two head coaches made a lot of preparations before the game and smoothly opened the situation according to the pre-match tactical layout."
"Next, the two head coaches and the coaching team are about to start a battle of wits. The intensity of the game will further escalate, and the excitement has just begun."
The Philadelphia Eagles offense is at it again.
Peterson, who came prepared, once again showed his determination to win.
After a short screen pass, tight end Ertz showed his courage after receiving the ball and advanced 14 yards.
After a fake pass, running back Blount finally showed his temperament as the yard leader last season, advancing 37 yards through all obstacles, getting rid of four tackles, and destroying the Kansas Chiefs' ground defense with his powerful running.
The Philadelphia Eagles are on their way.
Then.
The Kansas Chiefs defense also showed intensity.
"Raid!"
"The Kansas Chiefs' five-man pass rush was beautiful! They powerfully ripped apart the pocket protection of the offensive line, and Foles was instantly exposed to the opponent."
"Houston!"
"Houston was chasing, but Foles wasn't ready to surrender."
"Fowles!"
"God! Foles got rid of the sack, Foles is still looking for passing targets!"
"Danger!"
"Foles got away again, and his sudden stop and turn control was perfect. Foles got rid of the Kansas Chief's double-team attack!"
"Fowles is still watching, Fowles is still trying."
"Houston is back!"
"Wow!"
"Foles made a move, passed the ball, and the football drew a beautiful arc. After all, Houston was half a beat too late. This sack was suspected of roughing the quarterback, but now Foles doesn't care at all."
"football."
"football!"
"It's unbelievable. This is a 27-yard long pass. It's actually a long pass!"
"The passing target is—"
"Jeffrey!"
"Wide receiver Jeffery singled out safety Murray!"
"After the Kansas Chiefs defensive team captain Berry was injured for the season this season, the second-line defense has never been able to find a perfect replacement."
"After all, there's only one Berry."
"Murray is getting stuck and Murray is trying to interfere with the ball!"
"Jeffrey!" "Beautiful! Jeffery snatched the football from Murray's hand with all his teeth. Jeffery was getting rid of it, Murray lost his center of gravity, and Jeffrey continued to push forward!"
"Jeffrey!"
"Alshon Jeffery! A perfect escape and regained the space to advance!"
"Red zone! Five yards! End zone!"
"Touchdown!"
"God, the Philadelphia Eagles scored the first touchdown and exceeded the score again!"
boom! Boom boom boom!
The entire Bank of America Stadium fell into a frenzy and completely lost their minds.
In sharp contrast to the anxiety and length of the first wave of offense, this time the Philadelphia Eagles showed the explosive power of the offensive team. The third attack only took 57 seconds -
Got the touchdown.
This is Peterson's counterattack.
roar.
Peterson did not get carried away and celebrated wildly. He just clenched his fists and roared in a low voice. He stared at his offensive team with burning eyes. He showed the belief of winning from every part of his body and firmly controlled the entire field.
It is precisely because Peterson deeply understands Reid's ability, and it is precisely because after experiencing the tragic loss in the second week of the regular season that a completely renewed Peterson takes this game more seriously than ever.
Faintly, Reed realized the core of the problem——
Falls.
They all underestimated Foles, including Reed.
Foles played under Reid for one season and started two games while Smith was concussed, winning both games; but because of this, Reid knew the upper limit of Foles' ability.
Reid is a top quarterback trainer. He has an innate understanding of quarterbacks. He thinks he knows Foles well enough; but so far, Foles in this game has completely overturned his understanding. .
It even felt strange to Reid.
However, this is also one of the charms of competitive sports.
Sometimes, there is just no reason to explain a certain player's sudden outburst, such as Joe Flacco in the 2012 playoffs. Even Flacco himself could not explain the Super Saiyan mode in the playoffs that month. There was no sign of early warning, and they dominated the playoffs that year. It can truly be said that "the gods kill the gods and the Buddhas block the Buddhas."
Then, the style of that year can no longer be found.
Reed looked slightly panicked——
After all, this is only the second Super Bowl of his coaching career.
But compared to the first time, Reed has also matured, concealed himself well, and calmed down immediately.
An accident occurred.
"Oh, God."
"incredible."
"Elliott missed the extra point and the football went wide to the right of the goal."
"This was the first miss in Elliott's 39th extra-point attempt of the season. A 100% hit rate went awry on the Super Bowl stage."
Jack Elliot held his head in disbelief and squatted down with his knees weak.
Like Kansas Chiefs kicker Harrison Buck, Elliott is also a rookie this year. He also lost out in the competition for the team's kicker and entered the sparring group. He also transferred to his current team midway through the season. , finally staged Cinderella’s counterattack fairy tale and appeared on the Super Bowl stage.
Although he is just an inconspicuous kicker, Elliott is also conscientious in completing his work, hoping that he can become a contributor to the team's championship——
Same as Buck.
However.
I missed it, I actually missed the extra points.
From practice to competition, one hundred extra points can lead to one hundred hits; however, something goes wrong at the most important and critical moment.
Elliot fell into deep self-blame.
But Peterson doesn't blame Elliott.
Because he knows that blaming Elliott will not help. Next, they still need Elliott to continue to try extra points and free kicks. Elliott cannot collapse, let alone fall into self-blame and be unable to extricate himself.
It’s also because he knows that there is a real reason behind what seems to be Elliot’s mistake——
Reed.
