Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1050 A tacit understanding
Push off the ground, rush forward, and refuse to look back.

Mahomes held the football tightly, crossed the line of scrimmage with light and nimble steps, and rushed forward along the vertical route.

One step, two steps, three steps.

In the blink of an eye, the third-and-5 conversion was completed, and Mahomes noticed in the corner of his eye that Ferguson's black figure on the right was quickly filling in the position and impacting.

Obviously, Ferguson had been paying attention to Levi, but he never expected that Mahomes would rush out. He had no time to think and accidentally rushed towards Mahomes.

Mahomes was not prepared for the collision. He slid to the ground, avoided Ferguson's tackle, and ended the advance on his own initiative.

"Wow!"

The whole place was boiling.

"Mahomes runs with the ball!"

"Although we know Mahomes has this ability, the Kansas City Chiefs rarely need Mahomes to run with the ball himself under Levi's coverage."

"At the critical moment, Mahomes relied on his legs to run a first down."

"The point is that the Baltimore Ravens have improved in all aspects, including rhythm, intensity, and form, further forcing the Kansas City Chiefs to play at their strongest. This game is truly a highly anticipated clash of strong teams."

"However, the Kansas City Chiefs offense still found a way to keep pushing, and the Baltimore Ravens defense needed to continue to keep the pressure on."

"Oh, the Kansas Chiefs are lined up!"

"Is it another Wu Ju Shang attack?"

The pressure is coming.

Whether it was the Baltimore Ravens defense or the Kansas City Chiefs offense, both sides could feel the suffocating tension that was spreading across the board.

At the very beginning, the Baltimore Ravens finally couldn't hold back and showed their fangs, trying to reverse the situation and regain the initiative.

On the back foot, the Kansas City Chiefs increased the tempo without warning. Instead of continuing the confrontation at a leisurely pace, they took advantage of the situation and tried to disrupt the rhythm of the Baltimore Ravens.

If the Baltimore Ravens continue to passively take the beating, they might go crazy.

Reid doesn't want to see the Baltimore Ravens enter super-god mode.

In the first moment, instructions were given one after another, and Mahomes and Levi exchanged glances.

Then, form an array.

kick off!
The Kansas City Chiefs didn't wait for the Baltimore Ravens to gain a foothold, Mahomes had already started the battle -

Step back, step back continuously.

Mahomes immediately distanced himself and looked into the distance, preparing to find a passing target; but the Baltimore Ravens still used a combination of positional defense and zone defense, and the entire second-line defense was watertight.

This time, Kelce was prepared and created a half-step gap, but Humphrey held on tightly and there was no particularly good passing opportunity.

At the same time, in this wave of defense, the three defensive frontmen of the Baltimore Ravens did not form a stalemate, but took the initiative to step forward and instantly burst out with pressure.

It seems that in the brief moment just now, Harbaugh was also deploying his strategy. Unfortunately, the Kansas City Chiefs kicked off quickly, disrupting Harbaugh's strategy. Now he can only rely on the defensive line's own understanding to exert pressure.

Then, Judon stared at Mahomes-

Wait, and wait again.

Judon didn't take a step forward to attack, and the defensive line didn't break the pocket for a while, so Mahomes was not in a hurry and waited calmly and patiently for the opportunity to pass the ball.

Judon knew that they couldn't afford to wait. Whether it was Kelce opening up space, Levi acting as the fifth receiving point, or Hill completing the breakthrough, the Kansas City Chiefs' passing offense had too many weapons. If they continued to waste time, the Baltimore Ravens would definitely be the first to have a loophole.

Judon must step up.

And Judon did it, relying on the time difference to cut into the pocket for the second time in a row.

Mahomes was very patient and calm. After Judon cut into the pocket, he threw the ball to Levi.

Read option offense, second in a row.

Mahomes was at ease and calm because they had so many options. He just waited for linebacker Judon to make a move and then decided on the strategy on the spot.

After Li Wei got the ball, he shook off Judon and moved forward along the slot. At this time, he faced Ferguson one-on-one. Li Wei chose to break through head-on without fear. Ferguson's desperate collision failed to complete the interception, but only confused Li Wei's footsteps; but Humphrey started quickly again, quickly got rid of Kelsey, and took advantage of Li Wei's unstable center of gravity to complete the tackle accurately.

This time, Humphrey didn’t miss the tackle.

Humphrey reached out and pulled Levi up, panting: You have to let me succeed in grappling you once, right?

Levi laughed in silence, high-fived Humphrey in tacit understanding, and then turned around and returned to the team.

Although Humphrey succeeded in catching the ball, Levi showed his ability and advanced seven yards, bringing the Kansas Chiefs to second and third.

The rhythm is still closely connected.

Harbaugh only had time to communicate briefly before the Kansas City Chiefs lined up again. This made Harbaugh a little depressed, as the offensive rhythm of the Kansas City Chiefs did not give them any breathing time.

Later, Harbaugh learned from the feedback from the defensive coordinator that Mahomes completed the tactical arrangement with just a gesture and a keyword. It was not a non-aggregate offense, but the time for offensive arrangement was compressed, relying on rhythm to disrupt the layout of the defensive team.

This is the confidence.

Then, Mahomes had already called the game.

"attack!"

Raid!

No matter what trap the Kansas City Chiefs' offense was setting, Harbaugh refused to be led by the nose any further. Now that his intentions had just been exposed, he needed to seize the opportunity and step forward.

at last!

The Baltimore Ravens pounced.

Although the defensive front maintained pressure throughout this wave of offense and defense, Harbaugh remained patient and waited for the right moment to break the balance.

For example, now.

Going all out, the Baltimore Ravens chose to rush the passer with six players.

put all one's eggs in one basket.

Three defensive linemen and three linebackers stepped forward in an all-round way, attacking the Kansas City Chiefs' pocket protection in a flood-like manner.

In an instant, the balance is broken.

Ferguson and Judon stepped up to the pocket together, and in the chaos and noise, both men targeted Mahomes.

This time it’s not Levi, it’s Mahomes, only Mahomes.

It was a matter of life and death, and Harbaugh knew they couldn't hesitate, otherwise the Kansas City Chiefs would be able to gain breathing space and turn the situation around again.

The rolling heat waves came crashing down on us.

Ferguson rushed towards Mahomes unstoppably and suffered a lot against Levi tonight, but Mahomes is not Levi, he believes in his abilities.

However, he did not expect that a figure would appear on the road leading to Mahomes. Ferguson held his breath and rushed forward regardless of anything.

"Ferguson vs Levi".

This was not the first time the two men had clashed, but before this it was Levi who attacked and Ferguson who defended. Now the positions were reversed, and Ferguson gritted his teeth and launched an all-out attack.

boom!
Just as the collision happened, Levi turned counterclockwise and actually passed the opponent. His footsteps had already bypassed Ferguson and he rushed out directly.

Ferguson was delighted: Oh yeah!
But then he was stunned and realized something was wrong.

His body still rushed forward by inertia, and Ferguson rushed towards Mahomes with all his strength. At this time, he finally noticed Mahomes's calm steps as he continued to retreat and distance himself from him.

trap.

Wait, this is a read-option offense. The Kansas City Chiefs actually chose the read-option offense three times in a row?

Mahomes is bait.
