Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1465 Special Supply for Nine People
Soon, Shanahan realized his misjudgment. They all underestimated the Kansas City Chiefs defense. Although their performance was unstable, they should not be underestimated.

Unite as one and help each other——

What the San Francisco 49ers do best can be seen in the Kansas City Chiefs. Obviously, the Kansas City Chiefs don't just rely on stars.

The defensive front line applied full pressure and continued to put pressure on Garoppolo, creating a storm in the San Francisco 49ers' pocket.

Although Shanahan adjusted the strategy in time and used the running back committee to bombard the defense in turns, the pressure was still overwhelming and the San Francisco 49ers' offense was in a tough battle again. They barely advanced to yards and approached the midfield line after two consecutive third-down conversions. However, the advantage was with the Kansas City Chiefs:

Game time!

The two-minute timeout in the first half has passed, and there is little time left until the halftime break, which means that the San Francisco 49ers have fewer and fewer opportunities to try to overtake the score, and the Kansas City Chiefs will gain precious breathing time.

Obviously, this is not what Shanahan wants to see.

The San Francisco 49ers need to take advantage of the victory to turn the situation around and enter the locker room with a psychological advantage of a halftime lead, which is an important step in the game layout.

So Shanahan took action!
On first down and 49 yards, the San Francisco ers used the pass to cover the run, but it was not a simple fake pass. They actually had a hidden trick, using the run to cover the run.

After taking the football from Garoppolo, No. 1 running back Mostert pretended to run, but he passed the football to No. 2 running back Juszczek one step ahead.

Normally, as a fullback, Yushchek often plays the role of breaking up the defense, but now he returns to his job, running with the ball like a tank.

Trick attack! "Nine-person special supply"!
The inspiration obviously comes from the trick offense of the Kansas City Chiefs, but Shanahan still made changes based on his own characteristics and evolved his own tricks.

The dazzling switching is overwhelming. With Mostert and Kittel opening the way, Yushchek's bulldozer-like advancement can not only ensure the success rate, but also cause damage in the short pass area.

Shanahan had a clever idea.

However, the core of Shanahan's tactics is still simplicity without any fuss. Whether it is passing or running, being quick and decisive is his strong point. The numerous turns and changes have lost the rhythm and characteristics of the San Francisco 49ers, and have hindered their own pace.

Originally, most of the San Francisco 49ers' offense could be launched within 2.5 seconds, both passing and running, compressing the defense's reaction time; but now, three seconds have passed, the football is still behind the line of scrimmage, and the Kansas City Chiefs defense has some breathing space in the strong confrontation.

There was no problem in clearing the way on the ground; but on the side, the gap was seen by Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Higgins, exposing Yuszcek's real tactic of breaking through with the ball. Higgins accurately cut through the gap in the crowd, found an opening behind Kittle, stepped forward, and knocked Yuszcek down.

Yushchek did not see the danger coming from his blind side at all, and did not even have time to lower his center of gravity and enter defense mode, and was knocked over head-on.

Stop behind the line!

Huh! There was a cry of surprise.

The San Francisco 49ers' trick offense failed to fool the Kansas City Chiefs, but instead tripped themselves up!

"Oh, God! God bless you!"

"The San Francisco 49ers' offensive tactics were unusually complicated, but they didn't work. The Kansas City Chiefs' defense was highly focused and saw through their tricks!"

"At the critical moment, the Kansas City Chiefs' defense once again stepped up. Although they lacked individual combat capabilities, their teamwork energy was absolutely top-notch."

"The key player this time was linebacker Higgins, who was agile, tough and resolute, and made a clean and neat tackle. Beautiful!"

"The Nine-Man Special is a good idea, but it didn't explode like the 'Philadelphia Special' did. Now the situation has become delicate."

On the sidelines, Levi was the first to take the lead in cheering with his fists and arms raised. The Kansas City Chiefs' offensive and special teams all stood on the sidelines to watch the game.

The tension in the atmosphere further increased!
However, there was no time to breathe, and Shanahan didn't even have time to feel upset. He could only swallow the bitterness of having his trick offense discovered and overturned hastily, cheer himself up again, and immediately start to arrange the second-gear tactics. "Calm down!"

Shanahan tried to control the situation and the negative impact of the failed offense was more direct on the players. He quickly took action to control the situation, caught Garoppolo's confusion and irritability, and refocused on the next offense.

On second-and-12, Shanahan chose his signature modern outside zone offense, with Garoppolo and another running back, Coleman, running out of the pocket side by side.

Garoppolo paused consciously, trying to sway the Kansas Chiefs' judgment, but he never expected that the Kansas Chiefs' defense showed incredible determination and perseverance in this wave of offense and defense. Defensive end Frank Clark stepped forward without hesitation and rushed over quickly.

In a hurry, Garoppolo handed the football to Coleman, and for the second time in a row, the San Francisco 49ers chose a ground attack.

So far in tonight's game, the San Francisco 49ers have tended to pass the ball, but at the critical moment, Shanahan chose to run the ball, a tactical reversal and subversion, trying to disrupt the Kansas City Chiefs' layout. For the second time in a row, Shanahan hid his little tricks and was not shaken by the failure of the "Nine-Man Special".

But this time, Clark aimed at Coleman from the start and didn't even look at Garoppolo.

Push off the ground, step forward, and impact.

boom!
The head-on collision of force and force caused a huge wave of air.

Clark and Coleman were entangled with each other. Although Coleman gritted his teeth and pushed Clark forward two or three steps, he was ultimately unable to break through and collapsed.

Two codes.

Coleman gained just two yards.

Three gears and ten yards!

The situation changed suddenly!

Who could have predicted that the most trusted ground offense of the San Francisco 49ers against the weakest ground defense of the Kansas City Chiefs would become the key to turning the situation around at the critical moment. The Kansas City Chiefs resisted the impact of the San Francisco 49ers' running back committee twice in a row and actually stood firm!
"Wow!"

"The Kansas City Chiefs proved themselves once again. It was no accident that they made Derrick Henry so embarrassed in the divisional round! The San Francisco 49ers' ground offense hit a wall!"

"Two consecutive defensive waves and two consecutive wall hits, the Kansas City Chiefs defense showed unparalleled toughness, and the running back committee encountered the biggest crisis of the season."

Exclaim, everyone!
The entire audience at the Hard Rock Stadium stood up. No one could sit quietly in their chairs. Talia clasped her hands together and prayed silently, staring at the game intently.

The entire first half was full of ups and downs, twists and turns, and a stalemate all the way. The excitement continued to the point of making your scalp tingle.

The closer we get to the end of the first half, the more exciting it becomes!

However, there is no time to breathe, because the game time is still ticking -

Twenty-three seconds.

Twenty-two seconds.

Twenty-one seconds.

The first half has entered the countdown stage!
Tick, tick, every second, even every millisecond of rotation is so clear and so loud, continuing to roar over the Hard Rock Stadium.
