Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1011: Adapt to changing circumstances
Levi: Hardman, are you confident about the speed?

Hardman couldn't control his excitement and nodded repeatedly.

Speed? That's his trump card.

In this year's rookie training camp, Hardman made a splash with his speed. In the 4.33-yard dash, he ran an amazing time of seconds.

What level is this?
The current best 4.32-yard dash record in rookie training camp is seconds.

Levi's 4.38-yard dash time at the rookie training camp was seconds.

It's clear at a glance.

In other words, in terms of absolute speed, Hardman is better.

After all, Levi is a running back and Hardman is a wide receiver.

Clearly, Hardman is very confident in his speed.

So, this is also the role Hardman plays in this offense——

"Sprint as fast as you can. I'll cover you."

Hardman was able to clearly capture the sincerity and focus in Levi's eyes.

"Listen, if I run out there, all eyes are on me and they're going to think Sherlock's pass is going to be aimed at me."

"So, I'll cover for you."

incredible!

Hardman couldn't believe his ears. He was able to fight side by side with Levi, and Levi was covering for him, so he was the target for the pass.

Just imagining it nearly gave Hardman a brain hemorrhage.

Hardman tried his best to control his excitement and agitation, and finally he managed to pull the reins of reason and regain his focus.

"attack!"

As the kick-off command sounded, Hardman rushed forward immediately.

Ah, oops.

Hardman immediately realized that he was too anxious.

In the first half, he controlled his speed, ran routes, and made short passes and intermediate passes, allowing Hill to break the deadlock first and attract the attention of the second line of defense.

In the second half, release the speed and rely on absolute speed to complete the escape and breakthrough.

Hardman had to control himself a little and not get too carried away.

But this is not an easy thing to do. Realizing that Levi is right behind him, realizing that he is the hidden weapon in this offense, realizing that he is deceiving the world and teasing the defense in front of him, for Hardman, all this is as beautiful as a dream.

Control, and control again.

However, after running ten yards, he noticed the defenders approaching quickly on both sides, and the left linebacker and right cornerback were preparing to close the door for defense.

If they encounter a wall, their speed advantage may not be able to be released. Hardman was a little anxious and couldn't control his speed, so he tried to break through with speed before the door closed.

Tap tap tap, tap tap tap.

Power was released, speed increased, the strong wind roared on his eardrums, and Hardman rushed forward with all his strength.

Ramsey noticed something was wrong immediately.

According to the plan, Ramsey was defending Kelce, Kelce retreated, Levi and Hardman overlapped and advanced vertically one after the other.

This is not normal.

Ramsey had no time to observe and judge. He relied entirely on his intuition and reacted reflexively. He gave up defending Kelsey at the first moment and subconsciously followed Levi and Hardman, increasing his speed step by step, maintaining a parallel position, and looking around to observe the expressions of the people around him while running.

Then Hardman picked up speed, and Ramsey was immediately alert.

Originally, Ramsey's attention was completely on Levi——

No matter what the situation is, Levi should never be underestimated. Levi is always the focus of defensive confrontation.

He thought that Hardman should set screens for Levi, and the focus should still be on Levi.

but now!
Hardman had just left the short pass area when he started to speed up and Ramsey immediately sounded the alarm.

For one thing, Mahomes was still moving and showed no signs of passing the ball.

Secondly, Hardman's 40-yard speed is a highlight keyword. During the pre-game preparations, the defensive coach mentioned many times that Hardman has the same instant acceleration ability as Hill.

Thirdly, even if he moved in advance and rushed to the front, he could still retreat at any time to guard Levi who was following behind him.

Fourthly, on the other side, linebacker Quincy Williams was approaching quickly. Judging from Quincy's eyes and movements, he did not notice Hardman's movements and his attention was completely on Levi.

In a flash, a myriad of thoughts raced through my mind, all sorts of ideas collided quickly, and my body reacted before my brain could and followed suit.

Decisive and ruthless in killing!
Simple and neat!

Ramsey knows that the key to facing players like Hill and Levy who are known for their speed is to get in position and stick to their bodies as soon as possible:

We cannot let them release their speed, otherwise they will be passive later.

If you are not careful and miss the opportunity, pulling people or helmets is inevitable, and rough defensive fouls are mines that may explode at any time.

The same goes for Hardman.

Hardman had just started and was accelerating, while Ramsey had already completed the burst in two big strides, pushing the speed to the extreme within just five or ten yards.

Then, he took a step sideways to the left, bumped his shoulder into Hardman, and used his body to squeeze him, continuously colliding with force and speed.

Collision. Squeeze. Friction.

Ramsey and Hardman were jockeying for position, stumbling and stumbling across the midfield line.

Hardman tried to use his absolute speed to get rid of Ramsey, but at this time Ramsey showed his ability as a top cornerback, using his shoulders to hold his position, trying to get ahead of Hardman. Even if he had to endure Hardman's speed impact, he used his strength to suppress him, entangled him tightly, and refused to let Hardman get rid of him.

On the side, Quincy noticed this scene——

Speed ​​is not his advantage.

Quincy is a small man, a little shorter than Levi, but a lot heavier than Levi. Because of this, the young linebacker was not favored in this year's draft and was not selected until the third round.

Although he does not have an advantage in speed, strength, confrontation and explosion are his strengths.

At this time, Quincy noticed the entanglement between Ramsey and Hardman. He immediately realized that Levi was waiting for an opportunity. Without waiting for Levi to react, he took the lead and slammed into Levi.

Quincy's judgment was correct, Levi was indeed ready to start.

Their pace has crossed the midfield line. If they don't start now, they may not be able to enter the deep area in time. Even a 100-meter sprinter needs time to complete the entire process of starting, speeding up, stabilizing and sprinting. What's more, as the target of the pass, they also need to adjust their pace to complete the reception of the ball.

It must be started.

Just before Levi was about to start, Quincy cut inside without hesitation. On the surface, he seemed to be squeezing and squeezing. However, the muscles on his entire right shoulder and arm were completely tense. The accumulation of strength could be clearly seen during the high-speed movement, and he pressed towards Levi with great force.

Levi was about to start when he suddenly stopped and slammed on the brakes.

Quincy, who was moving at high speed, watched Levi "retreat" and lose his position. He stopped in a panic, but did not expect that Levi had already started again. When he was waiting to catch up with him, he found that he could not keep up with the rhythm due to the sudden stops and turns.

Levi took a step sideways to the left, cut sideways from behind Quincy, switched from Quincy's right side to the left side, and released speed instantly.

Quincy: ??? Where are the people?
