Chapter 620 The Reins of Reason


Chapter 620 The Reins of Reason
“Grass.”

Mahomes glared at Bentley fiercely. Seeing the triumphant smiling face celebrating with high-fives and other New England Patriots players, the anger in his chest exploded and he wanted to punch that smiling face. It's to pieces.

"Hahahahaha!"

There was no yellow flag, let alone ejection.

Because Levi escaped and Bentley did not really complete the tackle, the referee did not make any penalty and let Bentley get away with it.

Mahomes couldn't believe it.

Over the years, the New England Patriots have become the public enemy. In addition to historical reasons, they themselves have resorted to unscrupulous means to win more than once or twice. Spygate, candid camera gate, gas leak gate, those dirty tricks one after another, from It sucks from the outside to the inside.

But it wasn't until today that Mahomes truly experienced it firsthand.

"Ah, ah ah ah."

The more I think about it, the more frustrated I become, and the more I think about it, the angrier I get.

Until Levi brought Mahomes' attention back, "Sherlock, the game is still going on, you need to concentrate."

In such a fierce and stalemate game, the more critical the moment, the more you need to stay focused. Once you are irritated or distracted, you may have flaws or even make mistakes.

Perhaps Belichick's drunkard's intention was not to drink, and hurting Levi was just incidental. The real target was the young and energetic Mahomes.

With Belichick's cunning and sophistication, it may not be impossible.

"Hey Sherlock."

"This means that they are anxious. Do you understand? They also realize that in an upright duel, we can have the upper hand, so they need dirty tricks."

"Now, they're in disarray. We have to stay calm and seize the opportunity, you know?"

"Isn't it just right that he wasn't ejected? Otherwise, how could I have a chance to fight back?"

Mahomes didn't know why, looked along Levi's line of sight, and then saw Bentley.

Taking a deep breath, and another deep breath, Mahomes finally pulled the reins of reason.

Just as it happened, the scene was a little chaotic during this short period of time——

The referees need to review the video.

Just after Levi fell to the ground, he failed to control the football. Although the ball still belonged to the Kansas Chiefs, the referee needed to judge the position of the football.

This little bit of breathing time allowed Mahomes to calm down, regain his senses, and return his attention to the game.

Then.

Seven yards on second gear.

After reviewing the video, the referee determined that Levi still controlled the ball after he fell to the ground, and the rugby ball broke out of Levi's control only after the ball became dead.

So, Levi ran the ball for three yards.

After a brief period of chaos, the situation became increasingly stalemate. At this time, the New England Patriots showed the sophistication of a traditional strong team, seizing the youth of the Kansas Chiefs to further apply pressure——

Pass incomplete.

Mahomes tried to connect with Kelsey, but Kelsey was flanked by two players and failed to get out of the way, watching the football fall to the ground.

Seven yards on third down, at the 48-yard line in our own half.

At this time, you can feel again that in the fourth quarter, the defense of both sides had the upper hand, and the offensive team's rhythm and state could not improve.

In the final analysis, the consumption in the first three quarters of the game was too serious, which is the same for both teams.

The test further pushed the energetic offensive team of the Kansas Chiefs.

but.

The defending champions were also undaunted in their shotgun formation.

As soon as he came up, Levi joined the ranks of wide receivers and lined up on the right side of the team, while Kelsey and Kelsey were responsible for the receiving point on the strong side.

Obviously, compared with last season, one of the most obvious changes in the Kansas Chiefs this season is that the explosive power of the offense has become more stable——

Not only Levi's ball running ability, but also Mahomes' long passing ability fully unleashes Hill's speed advantage. It is precisely because of this that the Kansas Chiefs' shotgun formation is even more powerful, which has been demonstrated in the previous five weeks of games.

In an instant, the New England Patriots were on alert.

So, how does Belichick choose defensive tactics?

The air is almost stagnant.

Mahomes is reading the defense, and so is Levi.

Judging from the formation, the New England Patriots have not made any obvious changes. They are calm and sophisticated enough. They still defend in a zone and are not in a hurry because of the attitude shown by the Kansas City Chiefs.

But Levi can still notice the details——

After all, there are rookies and young people on the New England Patriots team, not all of them are veterans.

At this moment, you can see Bentley, McCawtry and other figures leaning forward slightly. What does this mean?
Marking.

In regional zone defense, static braking is often used; in man-to-man positioning, it is often necessary to step up and stick to the opponent as soon as possible.

Of course, this is not 100% absolute.

But now, Levi has noticed such details. He feels that the New England Patriots are likely to use surprise tactics to disrupt Mahomes' pace with the strategy of catching the thief first and interrupting the Kansas Chiefs' outbreak at the root. possible.

Levi was not in a hurry to remind Mahomes, not to mention whether his judgment was correct or not. Even if it was correct, he believed that Mahomes also had his own observations and judgments.

Now, all Levi needs to do is focus on himself and wait for the signal.

On the surface, Levi maintains a relaxed, standing starting position, advancing, attacking, retreating and defending, maintaining the running back's mobility.

Secretly, the muscles quietly tightened, took a deep breath, and then held it.

Everything quieted down, like a slow-motion replay.

"attack!"

Mahomes' kickoff call exploded like thunder on the ground.

Levi——

Kick off the ground, exert force, and start.

The body rushes out, but not in a straight line, but along a diagonal line on the left, moving forward with all its strength toward the defensive forward and linebacker positions.

No. 6 offensive lineman!
Bentley was stunned: How could he forget that in addition to running back, wide receiver, and quarterback, that rookie can also perform offensive line duties!
Oops!

In the brief moment when Bentley was caught off guard, Levi stepped forward immediately, joining his teammates on the offensive line and rushing towards Tigers defensive end Flowers who was coming down the mountain——

Raid!

The New England Patriots indeed use blitz tactics.

The seemingly unchanged defensive formation was transformed instantly after the kick-off call. Five players were left staring at five receiving points with a match-and-marking tactic. The other players took full steps to launch a surprise attack.

And, divided into two rhythms.

For the first time, there was a five-man pass rush.

The second time, the other two people stayed for a moment and waited for a while before taking a step forward, using this time difference to disrupt the Kansas Chiefs' offensive strategy and be prepared to deal with variables.

Belichick continued his tough defensive tactics in the fourth quarter.

After the chaos, the army showed its disciplined combat style, which was layered, orderly, intense and strategic, and firmly gained the upper hand.

However, Levi was also ready.

At such a critical moment, what is tested is not physical fitness or mental strength, but willpower.

He took a step forward, lowered his center of gravity, pushed his shoulders, and hit Flowers head-on. Like a stormy wave slamming against a cliff, he hit Flowers head-on.

Bang!
There was a muffled sound and a roar.
