Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1319: Cup Bow Snake Shadow
Focus! Pay full attention!
The Tennessee Titans defense was completely focused, and although they had given 100 percent of their attention in the first quarter, this moment took it a step further.

The reason is, Levi.

A man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. Over the past three seasons, Levi has proved his ability to break through at critical moments more than once. His explosive power to turn the tide is even more terrifying than Henry's. The Tennessee Titans have experienced this more than once, and they will definitely not take it lightly at this moment.

Just a look from Levi made the nerves of the Tennessee Titans' defensive players tense up, as if they were being stared at by a cheetah.

An intuition, an instinct, all the hairs on my body stood on end -

The Tennessee Titans had just completed their fourth touchdown, which completely infuriated Levi. Everything was just as Vrabel expected. The second quarter was the key. If they could withstand the furious Levi, the Tennessee Titans would be one step closer to a spot in the AFC Finals.

So, despite the shaking knees and the screaming goose bumps, the Tennessee Titans' defensive players were still fully focused.

power?

Advancing to the AFC Finals by defeating the invincible Kansas City Chiefs this season is the best motivation. There is no need for verbal mobilization. Everyone in the league is eager to defeat the Kansas City Chiefs, and now the Tennessee Titans have seized the initiative, and motivation is burning in their bodies.

Then, just then, defensive end Jurell Casey took sharp notice.

This 30-year-old veteran is not only the captain of the Tennessee Titans' defense, but has also been selected to the Pro Bowl for five consecutive seasons. He is undoubtedly the team's leader.

The first thing Casey noticed was Levi's footsteps.

"Cheating Motion".

Be alert, alarm bells started ringing in Casey's mind.

However, the Tennessee Titans defense stayed calm and didn’t get flustered by Levi’s footsteps, easily disrupting their formation and maintaining it.

Vrabel's heart tightened. He was not worried that his zone defense tactics would be discovered. What he was worried about was Levi's personal ability.

The reason why "Cheating Motion" is called "cheating" is that the focus is on the personal abilities of the players, relying on mismatches to seize opportunities and create advantages.

Compared with Hill, Hardman and others, Levi has both speed and strength. Not only can he rely on his speed to break through, he also has the ability to get rid of tackles, straight-arm blocking, and frontal breakthroughs. This is the key to the Kansas City Chiefs' offensive team's invincibility this season. Even if the tactics are discovered, the defense still has no solution.

It's a headache.

In the first quarter, because Mahomes' passing, the players' running, the players' receiving, etc. were not in good shape, Reid was reluctant to use the "cheating motion". The Tennessee Titans' defense was always tense but it was never used, and it was inevitable that they were a little numb.

Now, without warning, Cheating Motion arrives.

Vrabel's pupils vibrated rapidly, and in a short moment they moved on several Tennessee Titans defenders, and then -

Bravo.

The Tennessee Titans' defensive players responded promptly and were highly focused, and did not panic because of the sudden attack.

Looking around, the vast ocean in front of Levi remained calm, maintaining the zone defense formation, and refused to panic because of Levi's start.

Tonight, the Tennessee Titans are wearing white tops and blue pants, just like the ocean, with white waves rolling in from the calm deep sea surface.

Levi moved laterally to the right, paused slightly behind Kelsey and Hardman, pulled back, crossed the slot, turned and cut into the vertical area, ready to start.

"attack!"

At the moment when Mahomes announced the kickoff, Levi rushed forward with his head down, following the vertical route, and fully unleashed his speed. Defensive end Casey held his breath and rushed horizontally to his left hand side.

In the best case scenario, he would hit Levi and destroy the "Cheating Motion" routine; in the worst case scenario, he would interfere with Levi and force him to change his route. Moreover, Casey would be able to control his center of gravity, bypass the offensive line, cut into the pocket, and put pressure on Mahomes, killing two birds with one stone.

However, Levi's steps were light and he did not change his route. He just turned counterclockwise and stuck to Casey's position, getting rid of him effortlessly. While waiting for Casey to hit him, Levi had already crossed the kick-off line and continued to move forward. Casey's hit missed and he flew out.

Forget about putting pressure on Mahomes, Casey could barely stand: Damn.

Levi had already cut into the Tennessee Titans' short pass zone.

Because Levi started early and exposed his movements early, the Tennessee Titans' defense team's attention was all on Levi.

Outside linebacker Harold Landry, inside linebacker Rashaan Evans, cornerback LeShaun Sims and two safeties in front.

It's just a line of sight, but one can clearly feel the warmth of the gaze making the space in the short pass area become tight, sticky and turbulent.

However, Levi once again demonstrated his top ability, and his footsteps were like dancing on the tip of a knife.

He dodged Evans, hit Landry, and stumbled into Sims' arms. But before Sims was ready to tackle him, he turned clockwise to get rid of him and broke through the double-team in the blink of an eye. His dazzling footsteps were done in one go, leaving no room for breathing.

And in the pocket, Mahomes was calm and composed.

Adjust, move, and observe.

He deliberately delayed the shot, feinted a shot, and finally passed the ball diagonally to the front right. The reddish-brown parabola instantly caught everyone's attention.

The defensive players reflexively rushed towards Levi and surrounded him, but they watched helplessly as the angle of the parabola widened and expanded, deviating from Levi's position and actually flying towards a position close to the sideline.

Wait, the pass target isn’t Levi?
Vrabel: ???
The "cheating motion" was initiated by Levi, but the target of the pass was not Levi?
A deviation, an anomaly, disrupted the pattern, and the reaction of the Tennessee Titans' defense was instantly caught in the storm, watching the football fall into Kelce's arms.

VRABEL: Damn it.

Kelce was extra careful this time, holding the football with both hands and adjusting his steps continuously; not only was Kelce careful, but Mahomes was also a little cautious, so that his passing and receiving were not smooth enough, and Kelce had limited space to advance after receiving the ball, and his steps seemed to be out of bounds at any time.

However, under Hardman's screen, Kelce successfully got rid of the safety's first wave of impact and continued to advance staggeringly.

In the end, I lost control of my steps and unfortunately went out of bounds.

Ten yards, first attack achieved.

Everything seemed to have nothing to do with the Tennessee Titans. The Kansas City Chiefs performed a one-man show by himself, passing the ball, catching the ball, and going out of bounds by himself.

Landry, Casey and others exchanged glances, confusion written all over their eyes, but there was no time to communicate. They quickly formed a formation to prevent Mahomes from kicking off quickly.

However, it did not.

Mahomes was not in a hurry to kick off. Instead, he communicated with the players slowly and deliberately slowed down the offensive tempo.

The Tennessee Titans defensive players were all confused. Something was wrong. What was the Kansas City Chiefs up to?
