Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1069 Prescribe the right medicine
“23:17”, halftime.

Before the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Houston Texans, people probably didn't expect this scene. Although the Houston Texans were only leading by one possession, a one-possession lead is still a lead.

And, it was at Arrowhead Stadium.

There is no doubt that the Houston Texans have sparked widespread discussion inside and outside the league, and during the halftime break, the frenzy on social networks spread across the board.

"Watt makes his comeback!"

"JJ Watt: Your uncle is still your uncle."

"Facing Levi, Watt unleashes 200 percent of his energy."

"Excuse me, this is the legendary JJ Watt."

"'Watt vs. Levi' really lived up to expectations!"

With great fanfare and momentum, social networks were flooded with news at a rate of 5,000 updates per second, and the NFL once again dominated the trending searches.

Interestingly, this was not even a night game, but just an ordinary Sunday game. The NFL itself did not expect that Watt and Levi would collide with such energy.

Goodell saw everything.

In the past two years, Aaron Donald has risen across the board, and coupled with the huge potential of the Los Angeles basketball market, the league has been paying attention to Donald.

Last season, Donald and the Los Angeles Rams lived up to expectations and made it to the Super Bowl. However, the ratings in the Los Angeles area did not explode.

There is still a long way to go to tap the potential of the Los Angeles football market.

At present, the hot topic of the strong collision between Watt and Levi has given Goodell a new idea. As the former face of the league, Watt's leadership qualities are undoubtedly still very attractive. To some extent, Watt's market value is higher than Donald, and it remains the same.

The big question is, can the Houston Texans carry their hopes of not only making the playoffs, but also being more competitive in the playoffs?
Can Watson withstand the pressure and show his superstar potential?
Worth watching.

And now, the second half of the game is a test——

Everyone knows the tenacity and toughness of the Kansas City Chiefs. It is true that they are not invincible or unbeatable, but any team that wants to defeat them often has to pay a huge price and fight until the last moment. This is the most terrifying thing about the Kansas City Chiefs.

If the Houston Texans think that the Kansas City Chiefs will be dejected and surrender in the second half, then they are destined to not become a strong team, because they still have the fluke that their opponents will throw in the white flag and admit defeat.

Facts have proved that the Kansas Chiefs are still the tenacious Kansas Chiefs.

After halftime, the Kansas City Chiefs sounded the clarion call for a counterattack.

Just as people need to face a question when facing the Kansas City Chiefs, how to defend Levi? When facing the Houston Texans, they also need to face a question, how to confront Watt?

Judging from his status and trajectory in the past two seasons, the continuous injuries are indeed destroying Watt's game. He often finds it difficult to maintain his strength throughout the game, and his dominance and impact on the court are declining.

According to common sense, Watt, who burned out his inner energy in the second quarter, might not be able to continue in the second half.

But Reed wasn't going to take any chances—

Whether it's Levi or Watt, never underestimate these elite players. Their fighting spirit and tenacity transcend the physical level.

Today, Watt played in superb form in the second quarter, so Reed had to assume that Watt's superb form could continue until the final stage of the game.

So, how should the Kansas City Chiefs deal with Watt?

In the second quarter, the Houston Texans' defense performed well, and it was definitely not just Watt. Mahomes' pass success rate dropped below 50%, and it was not the credit of one person. The Kansas City Chiefs must face up to their opponents' in-depth research and exploration of their offensive system.

In the NFL, once a tactic is made public, it is no longer a secret.

Of course, the most important thing is Watt. Watt's full-court pressure and impact played a role in threading the needle, releasing the potential of the Houston Texans' defense. Last season, the Houston Texans were able to be ranked third in the AFC, which was definitely not just luck. In the end, the Kansas City Chiefs' proud offensive system was caught in this storm called "Watt" and lost its direction.

Naturally, if the Kansas City Chiefs are trying to get out of this predicament, they can't just focus on Watt, but they must start with Watt.

Reed, another surprise move——

"Levi VS Watt".

Literally.

Reed did the opposite, using the defensive team's man-to-man tactic, with Levi facing off against Watt, sacrificing a running back to open up the situation.

The heavy responsibility all fell on Levi.

Then, an incredible scene occurred on the field, which surprised everyone.

Watt suddenly attacked and Levi stepped forward to match him. Although Levi and Watt were still not on the same level in terms of power confrontation, at least Levi was able to hold his position and buy time for Mahomes, and the situation suddenly changed.

Watt defended the ground, Levi sacrificed himself to protect Damien, blocking the position in advance to buy time for Damien to break through Watt's interception.

Watt assisted in defending the short pass, and Levi rushed forward to interfere, just like patching, destroying Watt's defensive purpose and disrupting the Houston Texans' defensive layout.

Originally, it should be Levi attacking and Watt defending; but now the positions are inexplicably reversed, and it has evolved into Watt attacking and Levi defending -

Everyone was dumbfounded: Football, could it be like this?
In the second quarter, Watt played the linebacker, relying on his awareness and wisdom to read the court, and then created damage through keen judgment and accurate actions, covering everyone from Mahomes to Levi to Kelce, and his strong yet agile figure was everywhere.

Now, Reed has taken the right remedy, with Levi playing against Watt.

Of course, Reed's choice of Levi was not just a simple one-on-one, he also used Levi's reading and judgment of the defense to form a counterattack.

In addition, a very important point is the tacit understanding between Levi and Mahomes. Mahomes trusts Levi and can make judgments based on Levi's reactions, adjust tactics at any time, and rely on their cooperation to open up the situation.

This is a brand new attempt, but it also shows Reed's trust in Levi.

Then, an incredible scene appeared——

Start, sprint, stop suddenly, turn sharply, and change direction.

Originally, this series of actions should have belonged to Levi, but now it is Watt who is executing it, and the one who follows him like a shadow and cannot be shaken off is Levi.

Watt slammed on the brakes and tried to feint.

However, Levi was not fooled at all. He took a step forward and slammed into Watt's shoulder head-on.

Levi knew that his own strength was not enough to shake Watt, so he deliberately staggered his position, using his shoulders to collide, using inertia and speed to destroy Watt's center of gravity, and then he took advantage of the situation to crush Watt.

It's as sticky as taffy.

It was during this brief entanglement that Mahomes found an opening.

Watt watched the football go over his head and find Kelce, completing the connection.

Kelce relied on his positional advantage to crush the cornerback and rushed out directly.

Watt: ...Damn, you got the guts, Travis, you should play against me!
