Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1470 Talking and Laughing
Sweat poured down like rain and blood surged.

Even if I sat quietly there, hot sweat continued to flow, wetting the ground in a blink of an eye. My knees, fingertips and lower abdomen were all trembling slightly, as if I was holding on to the last autumn leaf that fell from the tree in the strong wind, and my chest was burning.

That burning feeling is flowing through the body.

It's not just Fowler.

What's worse is that after the fierce confrontation and all-out effort, the impact of the injury began to surface.

"Chris...Chris?"

Chris Jones was gritting his teeth and persevering. He started limping after entering the locker room. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that his right leg muscle strain was becoming more and more serious. He was swaying and almost unable to stand.

Frank Clark reached out and tried to support Chris Jones, but Hill got there first and grabbed Chris Jones's shaky body.

However, Chris Jones could hardly stand, and his heavy body pressed on Hill. Hill was completely caught off guard and screamed repeatedly. Clark then hurried forward, and the two of them hurriedly helped Chris Jones to sit down to relieve the pressure on his right leg.

Chris Jones waved his hands. "It's okay, it's been a month. I'm used to it. You guys can't get rid of me. I'm going to finish this game."

After that, Chris Jones looked at Levi again and said firmly, "Hey, did you hear me? I want to finish the game. There is no coward in the Chiefs defense who retreats without a fight."

That look, so determined and so intense, reminds people of Justin Houston, the former defensive captain of the Kansas City Chiefs.

Levi laughed dumbly and said jokingly, "So, this is the dregs you inherited from Justin?"

No one in the locker room expected that Justin Houston's name would appear at this time. They were slightly stunned and one or two of them couldn't help but laugh.

Although Levi was joking, in fact, his nerves were just as tense, because his own consumption was definitely no less than anyone else present.

Just now, seeing Fowler vomit, Levi himself was also in turmoil, his knees were shaking, and every inch of muscle in his body seemed to be protesting -

It may be hard to believe, but the speed and extent of energy consumption in tonight's Super Bowl was more serious than the game against the Philadelphia Eagles two years ago.

Two years ago, they were a group of rookies with no experience or strategy. They just rushed forward with full of passion and persisted to the end, just like the San Francisco 49ers tonight. There was no such thing as physical energy distribution. But two years later, they are no longer rookies, but their physical condition at this moment is worse than before.

Maybe, the undefeated season... is indeed a "curse"?
In the bustling crowd, Levi noticed that Mathieu's footsteps were deep and shallow. He tried to cover it up and pretend that nothing was wrong. It was hard to notice without careful observation, but nothing could escape Levi's eyes. "Knee?"

Mathieu's condition is an old problem. After playing in the league for many years, it is inevitable that he has some injuries. Mathieu has not shown any obvious condition throughout the season; but in the first half tonight, they fought very hard one by one, especially against the running back committee of the San Francisco 49ers, who had to go all out.

Now, the aftereffects are gradually showing up.

Mathieu was trying to cover up and subconsciously waved his hands. At this moment, the last thing he needed was to disrupt the atmosphere in the locker room because of his injury.

However, Levi noticed, "Hey, you are different from someone. It's okay for us to be missing someone, but it's absolutely not okay to be missing you. You still need to play the whole game in the second half."

Chris Jones: ??? "Are you talking about me?"

The locker room couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.

They were trying their best to control their laughter, but when they saw the innocent expression on Chris Jones' face, they couldn't control their laughter anymore and everyone burst into laughter.

Mathieu's nerves also relaxed a little, and he nodded with a grin, "Give me an ice pack."

"Also, I need some painkillers." "The knee looks serious, but it's actually fine. What's really bad is the shoulder. I can't lift my arm now."

Looking at Mathieu's swollen and red eyes, he tried his best to hold it back, but his body's protest was still expressed in this way.

The situation is more serious than it looks.

Levi's words were more than just a joke. Chris Jones was still an indispensable role in the defensive front, and the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers had a mixed game. However, the challenges faced by the defensive second line were more severe, and Mathieu had no substitute at all.

Once Mathieu's shoulder is injured and he cannot raise his hand, it also means that long pass defense will be very, very difficult.

Three consecutive championships means that they have maintained high-level and high-intensity confrontation for three consecutive seasons; an undefeated season means that they have never taken the 16 games of the entire season lightly, and each game has passed the test of time and evolved into pain that has settled in the body, making things more challenging little by little.

No wonder people have been saying that this is a curse that no one in the history of the league has ever been able to accomplish.

Not only that, the always quiet Mahomes was not sad or upset, but sat down and iced his ankle as soon as possible.

The injuries suffered in the regular season have never been fully recovered, and Mahomes' mobility was more or less affected tonight.

There was a rustling sound, and the air seemed a little restless and a little depressing.

Mathieu noticed it, and he looked at Levi helplessly. That was why he didn't want to attract attention. At the end of the first half, they had barely managed to resist the continued rise of the San Francisco 49ers. The mental and physical exhaustion was already bad enough, and they didn't need more bad news.

However, Levi doesn't think so.

Difficulties and setbacks are always there and will not disappear because of their ostrich behavior. Turning a blind eye will only bury the depression and frustration in their hearts, and at the critical moment, it will evolve into shackles that break the balance of the game.

The first step to solving a problem is to acknowledge the existence of the problem, otherwise everything is in vain.

Levi took a deep breath and said, "Wow, it turns out that Kyle Shanahan was frightened by a group of defeated soldiers like us. He didn't dare to do anything in the last six seconds. This empty city plan was perfect. I think the Oscar for Best Actor should not be awarded to their tight end, but to us."

Kelsey rolled his eyes. “Kittel, George Kittle.”

Levi nodded slightly, "Yes, it's him." His face was full of sincerity.

Haha!

Hilarious, everyone burst into laughter.

Obviously, this was definitely not the best time to joke, but it was undeniable that the tense mood relaxed quietly.

Not only the players, but also the coaching staff are no exception.

Vic's eyes could hardly hide the pride.

The scene before him reminded him of the game video that Reed had shown him. In the final moments of the 2016 NCAA National Championship, facing the tense situation of a decisive game, Levi was still cheerful and calm. No matter what the time, he always led the team forward with their heads held high.

This is their leader, their captain.
