Chapter 646: The true nature of a hero
I stopped eating because of choking.
Anyone with common sense knows better than to make such a stupid mistake.
However, real life is often not like this. A fatal mistake can easily make people shrink back and worry that they may repeat the same mistake and capsize twice in the same ditch. However, they often lose the courage to break through because of this——
Nothing can be broken or established.
Only by facing your own shortcomings calmly and bravely facing potential dangers can you accumulate experience and grow through mistakes again and again.
No one is perfect, and no one can make no mistakes, especially in competitive sports. Even the best, greatest and most legendary players are still mortal after all, and they can make mistakes and make mistakes.
Therefore, it is foolish to imagine that you will never make mistakes.
Errors, mistakes, failures, they are terrible, but they are not terrible. Don't worry about making mistakes again, only then can you make breakthroughs and make progress.
This requires courage and courage.
Clearly, Mahomes is trying to—
And, he was intercepted again.
But Levi is not worried. On the contrary, Mahomes even fell into self-doubt when he was intercepted due to recklessness in the last game. However, faced with a critical moment in this game, Mahomes still Show no mercy and choose to take risks resolutely.
This is the true nature of a hero.
Levi gave a thumbs up to Mahomes to encourage his friend.
Mahomes also couldn’t laugh or cry——
Interception? Thumbs up?
are you sure?
One second ago, Mahomes was still upset because he sent another interception.
The quarterback and the football goalkeeper are somewhat the same. The goalkeeper may make three or five wonderful saves in a game and win applause from the audience, but just one mistake may be the sinner that ruins the entire game; the same is true for the quarterback, no matter how many more A touchdown cannot cover up the negative impact of an interception, easily obliterating the entire game's efforts.
Moreover, it was the second consecutive game where he sent an interception.
Originally, at the beginning of the season, Mahomes was creating miracles. Not only did he set a new record for touchdowns in the first three games of a quarterback's career, but he also passed 11 consecutive touchdown passes without encountering an interception. His skills were astonishing. The performance of the four surprised the entire league.
Coupled with Levi, who is still strong and outstanding, the "Kansas City Twins" shine in the new season and kick off the new season in a grand way.
But now, Mahomes is also a little frustrated after encountering consecutive interceptions.
The next second, Mahomes saw Levi's thumbs and a smile on his face. It was so ridiculous and inconsistent that Mahomes was not sure how he should react, and a smile crept up to the corner of his mouth first.
As a result, not only Levi, but other offensive players also gave a thumbs up to Mahomes.
When Kelsey walked over, she looked at this scene with a puzzled face. She looked down at her thumbs and said, "Are you imitating ET? Why do I remember that they use the index finger?"
There was a roar of laughter.
The scene is a bit subtle.
Logically speaking, the Cincinnati Bengals finally woke up from a dream in the second half. They made continuous efforts on both offense and defense, finally showing their outstanding strength of four wins and two losses this season, disrupting the Kansas Chiefs' game plan in one fell swoop. Although the score gap is still obvious, The suspense has returned.
The atmosphere at home should be tense and restless now.
However, no.
Not only was there none, but it was a scene of relaxed, cheerful, chatting and laughing.
Lewis: ...There's something wrong with you.
Excuse me, is the Kansas City Chief looking down on the Cincinnati Bengals? Are the Kansas City Chiefs mocking the Cincinnati Bengals' death throes?
Lewis became so angry that he almost broke his teeth.
He felt humiliated. Across the court, you can see the situation on the opposite side at a glance.
The Kansas Chiefs offensive players returned to the sideline and high-fived the defensive players one by one. They were talking and laughing, looking relaxed. They didn't feel the pressure of the Cincinnati Bengals chasing after them at all. They went into battle lightly. His posture did not take Lewis's counterattack into consideration at all.
Suddenly, suddenly.
Lewis's temples beat violently, and blood surged in his chest.
Taking a deep breath, Lewis looked at his beloved disciple Dalton.
The opportunity has been created. If they can take advantage of this interception to convert the ball, score another touchdown and close the score as soon as possible——
"14:31".
Seventeen points, that's the difference between three possessions, and with one and a half quarters of game time left, the Cincinnati Bengals have every chance to completely overturn the situation.
Once successful, they will complete the greatest comeback in NFL history. Not only can they continue their victory, but they can also complete such a feat by stepping on the shoulders of Reid and Levi. By then, the Cincinnati Bengals will become famous all over the world. No one can underestimate him.
Even if he just briefly thought about it, he didn't even need to let his thoughts continue to spread and deepen, Lewis could not suppress his whole body trembling——
What you are waiting for is this opportunity.
Lewis: Haha, you all thought that the Cincinnati Bengals were defeated in the first half. In fact, everything was my smoke bomb. This is a big game. My goal is to make a blockbuster and write history. Playing is my heartbeat. You normal people don't understand me at all.
"...interception!"
There was a thunder and thunder.
With a sudden movement, Lewis was dragged back to reality from his daydream in embarrassment and shock, his heart beating wildly, trying to refocus and confirm the scene in front of him amidst the chaos and turmoil.
What did he just hear?
"God, intercept!"
The energy that burst out from Arrowhead Stadium shook the entire world.
Lewis's heart sank in free fall, and he finally found the target in the chaos and confirmed the reality.
——Interception.
Dalton cannot be blamed for this goal.
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Boyd was too impatient. He noticed that Kansas Chiefs cornerback Fowler was approaching quickly. He was ready to quickly catch the ball and start quickly, break through Fowler's defense, and strive for big yards.
Obviously, Boyd, like Lewis, was extremely excited, excited, and eager, eager to cash in on this interception opportunity.
However, he was so anxious that he turned around before he could control the rugby ball. The brain's reaction was one step ahead of his body, so the rugby ball didn't catch on.
Fowler seized the opportunity and with a gentle push from the bottom up, the football broke free from Boyd's grasp and fell into Fowler's hands.
Boyd: Surprised.
Lewis: Stunned.
Everything happened so suddenly that no one could predict it.
Including Fowler himself.
FOWLER: That's it?
He spent almost no effort, just subconsciously stealing the peach like a monkey, and then the ownership of the football changed hands.
He didn't even need to turn around. He turned slightly sideways 30 degrees and completed the U-turn. The half court on the Cincinnati Bengals side was spread out in front of him.
With a kick of his feet, Fowler launched a counterattack without hesitation, throwing Boyd away and rushing out before the Cincinnati Bengals offensive team could react.
Lewis: Stop him!
