Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1460: Battle of the Golden Boy
"Power vs. Power", a showdown on the one-yard line.

However, Emmanuel Sanders, at 5.9 feet (180 cm) and 180 pounds (81 kg), has a hard time gaining the upper hand in a power duel.

What’s more, it’s a tough battle?

Mathieu stood on the edge of the cliff, holding on with all his strength, releasing the energy deep in his dantian without reservation.

Sanders realized at the first moment that he might not be able to break through head-on, as Breeland was approaching from all sides, and he had no time to hesitate.

He took a deep breath, pushed against Mathieu with force, used his right shoulder as a fulcrum and the right side of his body as an axis, kicked with his left leg, turned around and spun out. The next second, he could feel the weight and strength of Mathieu opening a gap and rushing in, unreasonably squeezing Sanders out.

Sanders flew into the air and was thrown out by inertia and force.

But Sanders dived toward the corner post on the left front edge of the end zone like a glider.

Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom!

The whole world was running at high speed, with loud noises roaring. It froze for a moment, watching Sanders' movements in ten times slow motion, and then the magic was lifted the moment the orange corner post flew out, and the whole audience fell into a frenzy.

Blowout.

“Touchdown!”

"Ladies and gentlemen, touchdown! It's a touchdown, without a doubt a touchdown! A wonderful touchdown!"

"Garopolo connected with Sanders to complete a 49-yard touchdown pass, the San Francisco ers are on the line, and the competition for Super Bowl has begun!"

"Beautiful, so beautiful indeed!"

"Shanahan used the 'Cheat Motion' cover, using Kittle and Samuel as decoys to hide the real play of Garoppolo's pass to connect with Sanders."

"The Kansas City Chiefs defense almost stopped the opponent, just a little bit. First, Clark's sack was intercepted, and then Mathieu's strong match at the critical moment failed to stop Sanders. The difference of a millimeter witnessed a completely different result. The San Francisco 49ers offense returned to the sight."

Ah!
Garoppolo clenched his fists and roared.

Ahhhhh!
Garoppolo could no longer control himself. He roared to the sky, turned around, and effortlessly found Levi in ​​the crowd, venting all his emotions.

Ahhhh! Ahhhh!
It was endless and unbridled. Garoppolo's emotions that had been suppressed and restrained again and again finally found a gap and poured out all at once.

Energy, explosion!
Not only Garoppolo, but young Shanahan also raised his hands high, and the touchdown gesture turned into cheering celebration, which made all the San Francisco 49ers fans excited.

"Go, nine people!"

"Go, nine people!"

Loud.

Unlike the match against the Philadelphia Eagles two years ago, when both teams were dark horses and Super Bowl rookies, both teams had no burden and faced the same emotions, so everything was fair; unlike last year's match against the Los Angeles Rams, the Los Angeles Rams, who were plagued by injuries and mental constraints, performed poorly across the board. Except for Aaron Donald's hard work, the game was one-sided and lacked suspense early on.

This year, it is a different story. The San Francisco 49ers are barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. They have no baggage or burden and are taking the offensive posture of a challenger. Although the Kansas City Chiefs have a huge fan base, people tend to support the underdog. Even if they are just looking forward to a wonderful matchup, the underdog will always get more applause and cheers, so -

When the San Francisco 49ers finally broke free from their chains, the entire football world seemed to be behind them. The cheering heat wave was completely out of control!
In the end zone, Breeland and Mathieu blamed themselves very much. Although the tactics of the San Francisco 49ers were dazzling, they had already strangled the opponent, but the result was still...

Details, damn details.

Levi stepped forward immediately and patted every defensive player on the shoulder, not only to comfort them but also to encourage them.

"Hey, shutouts aren't in our playbook."

A teasing finally made Mathieu smile.

Indeed, the San Francisco 49ers' offense has many problems, and they rely more on the defense to advance to the Super Bowl, but Shanahan is a typical offensive coach. In Shanahan's hands, this offensive team can unleash infinite tactical changes and power, and no opponent can underestimate their energy.

Including the passing offense.

In this attack and defense, we must admit that Shanahan's counterattack was very beautiful. He relied on running the ball to interfere with his judgment in the beginning, and finally chose Sanders to close the connection.

Everything can be seen from Shanahan's layout.

Emmanuel Sanders is agile and light. He is not good at finding breakthroughs or creating opportunities to receive the ball in one-on-one confrontations, but his ability to memorize the tactical manual and accurately execute the coach's tactics to reach the receiving position is top-notch in the league.

Therefore, in the early stage of his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Sanders had almost no opportunity to perform. Head coach Tomlinson was good at defense and was not a genius in arranging offensive running routes. He needed the wide receivers to be creative, such as Antonio Brown, who relied on his personal ability to disrupt the defense and create gaps to create opportunities. Roethlisberger would naturally be able to find opportunities to complete the pass.

Sanders has long been considered a below-expectation and below-par wide receiver.

However, he later transferred to the Denver Broncos, where he shined under the tactical master Peyton Manning. He only needed to follow Manning's command and reach the tactical position, and the football would always be accurately delivered to his arms. Sanders' tactical execution ability was fully blossomed.

Pro Bowl, All-American First Team, Sanders was not only an important member of the strongest Denver Broncos offense in history, but also won the 50th Super Bowl championship.

Unfortunately, Manning retired later and Sanders was plagued by injuries. His condition gradually began to decline and he was unemployed for a time. He played for the Oakland Raiders in the first half of the 2019 season and was traded to the San Francisco 49ers in the second half. He has been struggling, recovering, and trying to get back on track.

Under Shanahan, Sanders finally found the model he once had under Manning. He only needs to focus on route running, and opportunities will naturally arise.

Moreover, as one of the few players on the San Francisco 49ers with experience in the Super Bowl finals, Sanders kept his composure at the critical moment.

A fatal blow!
"Just now, Levi scored a touchdown by hitting the corner post with his wings spread, and now Sanders scored a touchdown by hitting the corner post with a diving header."

"It's wonderful! There are so many good shows!"

"The competition is getting more intense and tense. As the pressure rises, the chance of mistakes may also rise. But now any slight deviation may lead to completely different results. This also means that how to control the situation under pressure will become the focus in the future."

“But there’s no doubt that Garoppolo is back.”

"Amid the doubts and attacks, Garoppolo responded with a 22-yard touchdown pass, proving that he can not only pass the ball but also score touchdowns. The so-called 'Golden Boys' Battle' is definitely not just a contest of looks, strength is equally important."

"Ladies and gentlemen, we now have a game."

Ah, ah ah!
Garoppolo roared to the sky.
