Chapter 653 A string of records
"...It's not over, it's not over, the game! It's still not over!"
"Jesus Christ!"
"Right now, my scalp is numb and my palms are sweating like crazy; but this is the NFL. The suspense is still not revealed until the last minute."
"Mahomes once again connected with Kelsey with a short pass to complete a six-yard advance on fourth down and one yard, but there is no doubt that the Kansas Chiefs will not give up. They will definitely choose to force a fourth down and one yard, and they have different options. "
"Now, they are on the 33-yard line of the Kansas City Chiefs half, and there are still 13 seconds left in the game. Mahomes can try to gain a yard, or he can try a Hail Mary. The Kansas City Chiefs still have a chance."
"In this game, the Kansas Chiefs reversed their deficit more than once. If my memory is correct, they have accomplished such a feat four times. So, can they continue this performance this time?"
"pause."
"Los Angeles Rams head coach McVay called a timeout."
"The pressure is increasing."
Much anticipated, much anticipated——
Sure enough, it didn't disappoint.
This season, as of the tenth week, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Rams are the first and second most scoring teams in the entire league respectively. They are full of firepower and momentum, and both sides have strong capabilities in passing and running the ball. , both head coaches are wizards of offensive tactics.
The audience is looking forward to a wonderful battle.
In fact, the Los Angeles Rams and the Kansas City Chiefs indeed presented an unparalleled offensive battle that made everyone excited.
In February of this year, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles had a record-breaking scoring battle in the Super Bowl, setting a new record for the highest score in Super Bowl history.
But now, even better, the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams are aiming not only at the Super Bowl record, but at the highest record in all NFL games.
The two teams work together to contribute——
There was not a single punt in the entire game; not only the offense scored, but the defense also scored; every transition of possession was accompanied by a score.
The game is played at a very fast pace, the energy is kept high and the points are scored exceptionally frequently.
Moreover, the teams alternated the lead twice and completed eight replacements of the leading position. The game was tense all the way.
No peeing spots throughout the process.
In the fourth quarter alone, the two sides had alternated the lead three times.
Just now, with fifty-eight seconds left before the end of the game, the Los Angeles Rams, standing on the edge of the cliff of losing, once again showed explosive power in the dilemma of five yards on third gear:
Quarterback Goff's 45-yard long line unexpectedly connected with tight end Gerald Everett, who caught the ball and broke into the end zone and scored a touchdown, regaining the lead for the home team. .
"51:54".
The visiting team was in front and the home team was behind. The Los Angeles Rams withstood the pressure and regained the lead amid the cheers and cheers of the home fans.
Then, the ball was kicked to the Kansas City Chiefs again.
With less than a minute left until the end of the game, the two teams have already scored 108 points, easily surpassing the total points scored in the Super Bowl at the beginning of the year and ranking third in the NFL's long history of more than half a century. And it's likely to continue to climb.
Moreover, the most incredible thing is that both teams have scored more than 50 points, which also means——
No matter what the final result is, who loses and who wins, the team that regrets losing in the end will become the first unlucky guy in NFL history to "score more than 50 points but still lose".
All the pressure came on the Kansas Chiefs offensive team.
Obviously, the Los Angeles Rams are well aware of the energy and explosiveness of the team in front of them. Last season, under the leadership of Smith, who lacked explosiveness, they had more than one reversal in the countdown period. There is no need to say more this season.
So, the Los Angeles Rams can do no wrong.
Donald, lead the way.
Maybe the audience saw the score and took it for granted that the defenses of both teams were beaten; this was not the case. Donald, the leader of the Los Angeles Rams defensive team, was red-hot in this game, relying on his own strength to fight against Mahomes, Levi and Kelsey were not left behind.
The Los Angeles Rams offense was able to hold on to the game without being thrown away. Donald played a crucial role. If it weren't for Donald, the Kansas Chiefs would have scored at least over 70 points.
It's the same thing in front of me. Leaving aside Kelsey and Levi, Donald narrowed his target at critical moments, targeted Mahomes one-on-one, forced Mahomes into a blind corner, and refused to give Mahomes room to move. This was Mahomes' first For the first time in an official game, he faced a hurricane-style defense alone and could hardly breathe.
then.
Thirteen seconds, thirty-three yard line, fourth down and one yard.
This is the dilemma facing the Kansas City Chiefs.
However, the Kansas Chiefs are still fighting, Mahomes and Levi are still fighting, not only the offensive team, but also the defensive team standing on the side of the court all stand up and fight side by side.
It's like the tip of a knife dancing wildly.
He was shaky and in danger, but his resolute eyes burst out with a trace of murderousness and bloodiness, and he still stood up straight in the storm.
Under tremendous pressure, it looked like it was about to collapse, but it managed to take a breath. Not only did it not fall apart, but it also fought back with all its strength.
In the battle of chasing each other, the outcome cannot be easily determined until the last second.
Donald was panting like a cow and his blood was boiling. Every cell in his body was burning. He was exhausted and teetering on the verge of collapse, but he still gritted his teeth.
Because he knows Levi's ability, and even more knows the tenacity of the Kansas Chiefs. The closer to the end, the more dangerous it becomes. Any little gap may become an opportunity to reverse the situation. He needs to be vigilant until the last moment——
The game is not over until the whistle blows.
Donald had studied Levi and knew his opponent's will and courage.
really.
"attack!"
The Kansas City Chiefs chose a pistol formation and posed to gain one yard. It seemed that they were preparing to get the first offense, and then called a timeout to rearrange the offense for the last ten seconds.
However, Levi rushed out immediately.
Donald, ignored Levi.
His goal was clear, and he locked Mahomes firmly at the first opportunity, preparing to cut off the Kansas Chiefs' offense from the source.
"Donald VS Mahomes"!
Los Angeles Rams head coach McVay’s judgment was correct.
One-yard gain, just smoke; Mahomes is ready to attempt a Hail Mary.
If this is the case, Mahomes must delay as much time as possible in the pocket and wait for his passing target to enter the deep zone before he can pass the ball.
This also gave Donald a chance.
Like a cat and mouse, Donald continued to pester Mahomes with bumps and squeezes.
Mahomes showed unparalleled movement and used his excellent physical fitness to withstand Donald's entanglement. Finally, he found a gap and tried to pass the ball. However, before the pass was released, he was sacked by Donald, so that the pass was parabolically controlled. Fluctuations occur.
The football draws a rainbow arc and flies towards the end zone——
Slightly reluctant.
Because Mahomes is a full 67 yards away from the end zone, such a pass must completely pull up the parabola, expose his passing direction and target early, and leave enough time for the defensive team to layout.
At this time, the passing parabola was interfered by Donald again, and the accuracy and stability dropped again, further increasing the difficulty. As the flight distance increased, it became more and more erratic, and the strong wind in Los Angeles did not help.
result.
Levi was trapped in a dilemma surrounded by three people. After all, he was unable to complete the ball and watched the football fluttering over his head——
Pass incomplete.
Beep, beep beep beep.
The whole game is over.
