Chapter 601 Left Arm and Right Arm
"...At the end of the game, the defending champion Kansas Chiefs withstood the test and withstood last season's playoff team Pittsburgh in a very close and very stalemate matchup. The Steelers made a good start to the season with a valuable victory and took the first step in defending their title.”
"This game is of great reference value..."
Buzz buzz.
Arrowhead Stadium was boiling and noisy. Michaels had to stabilize his mind in the raging heat wave. He temporarily ignored his racing heart and burning blood. He stayed focused and continued to perform his work for this wonderful opening game. Conduct a post-match summary.
In the commentary box, Michaels had the technical help of headphones and microphones to grab some attention; however, there was no way on the court.
Antonio Brown's expression was as deep as water, and the lines on his face were completely tense due to clenching his teeth. Anger and irritability were surging in his veins. Although he had experienced more than one failure in his career, and had also experienced more painful, annoying and humiliating losses, But still today——
Hard to swallow.
Because of off-field issues, but also because of on-field performance.
Today, Brown is almost invisible.
In the past, players were targeted for passes at least ten, fifteen, or even more times per game, and catching the ball for a hundred yards was even more commonplace.
But in this game, he was only targeted six times and completed three catches for 17 yards.
This data, haha.
Brown couldn't remember the last time he was in such a mess.
Moreover, this is a national broadcast and the season opener, which means that the entire league is paying attention, and now he is truly embarrassed.
Those cheers and those heat waves were like slaps in the face, hitting Brown hard in the face. Now all he could think about was leaving Arrowhead Stadium and leaving this damn Kansas City as soon as possible.
Just as he was about to take a step forward, Brown saw Levi coming towards him.
My chest felt tight.
Did this guy come here specifically to humiliate him? Or are you ready to complain for Bell? Or do you just want to pretend to be polite and polite, but in fact you just come here to show off your power and add insult to injury?
For a while, there were thousands of thoughts in my mind.
But is Brown scared?
How is that possible!
If that guy Li Wei dares to speak nonsense in front of him, he will definitely spit it back to his face.
Seeing that Levi was about to arrive in front of Brown, and Mars crashing into the earth was about to take place, Levi made a mistake in his steps. He didn't even look at Brown out of the corner of his eyes. It seemed that any more glances at him would be a waste of time, and he tossed Brown to the ground lightly. On the side, he passed by and walked straight to Fowler.
When they met, Levi hit Fowler on the shoulder, his smile completely bloomed, "Wonderful game, well done!"
Brown: The fist is hard.
Fowler was also slightly stunned, not expecting that Levi would actually come to congratulate him in person——
In the Kansas City Chiefs, he is still a stranger in the locker room and has not fully integrated into the atmosphere.
But now, as soon as Levi stepped forward to break the deadlock, other defensive players also came to congratulate him. More and more hands were slapping Fowler's helmet, and at the same time there was laughter. When he heard it, he knew that someone was deliberately playing a prank, and the atmosphere suddenly became cheerful. .
Fowler tried to respond to Levi, but he didn't have time to speak. He was slapped, pushed and choked. He was immediately involved in the heat wave storm, watching helplessly as Levi quickly escaped and left the crowd, even He even waved at him: Sorry, I can't help.
That expression in his eyes was clearly a prank.
Fowler:? ? ?
Levi didn't stop, turned around, and headed in the other direction. He didn't see Brown, who was livid and angry, and left straight away.
Brown: That's it? That’s it!
He is an upright Antonio Brown, and even if he performs poorly in one game, so what? He is still the number one wide receiver in the league!
Now, the Pittsburgh Steelers lack Bell, which is equivalent to losing his left arm; Tomlin cannot continue to destroy his right arm and put Brown in cold storage. Today's game just proved that Tomlin needs to rely on Brown so that the game tactics can be enriched and flexible and open up the situation.
Therefore, no one can underestimate Brown!
On the contrary, Brown believes that without Bell's constraints, this season will be the time for him to shine and show all his abilities and potential. He will prove that he is not only the league's number one wide receiver, but also the league's number one. Players, relying on the power of wide receivers to change the outcome.
His goal is not only to be the best offensive player in the league, but also to be the regular season MVP.
Levi's disregard and contempt will be repaid a hundredfold by Brown when they meet again at the pinnacle of the American League Finals.
We’ll see!
Brown gritted his teeth but still controlled himself, turned around and left the court angrily.
Originally, Brown wanted to go back to the locker room and leave Arrowhead Stadium directly, but when he thought of the humiliation Levi had just brought, as if he was an insignificant nobody, he couldn't swallow it. Brown found a punching bag—
Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner.
The drunkard's intention is not to drink, but Brown is actually referring to the mulberry tree and the mulberry tree:
If Roethlisberger hadn't always failed to pass the football to him, if the offensive tactics hadn't been stupid and used the league's No. 1 wide receiver as bait until the fourth quarter of the game, the result of this game might have been different. appearance.
Furious, face red.
Although the crazy noise celebrating the victory at Arrowhead Stadium covered up the conversation on the sidelines, no one knew what Brown was yelling at Finchler, but the scene was caught on camera and broadcast via live broadcast.
then.
The entire league knew that after Bell, Brown also had conflicts with the team's coaching staff.
So, what's going on?
In Levi's opinion, things are not complicated.
Maybe Levi doesn't understand the NFL or the subsequent development of Bell and Brown, and he doesn't have the advantage of a time traveler at all; but he knows the simplest and most basic point:
No one is irreplaceable.
Barcelona can trade Messi, Real Madrid can trade Ronaldo, Manchester United can trade Beckham, and so on. This is a professional league. In the face of greater interests, players are just pawns after all, from football to basketball to rugby. All are the same.
If some players think they are irreplaceable and even begin to challenge the authority of the coaching staff, uniform staff, and team owners, the outcome is already doomed.
When Bell spoke out for the personal interests of the players, Brown chose to stand with the team, which foreshadowed his narrow-mindedness and stupidity——
Today the Pittsburgh Steelers dare to do this to Bell, and tomorrow the Pittsburgh Steelers dare to do this to Brown, and even Roethlisberger. Does Brown think he can be the exception?
Or maybe Brown thinks that Bell's absence means he is the only one in the locker room?
Then, through this game, Brown should realize who is the real boss in the locker room:
Whoever it was, it wasn't going to be Brown.
