Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1627 Getting High
They stood in formation, ready to fight, on both sides of the Chu-Han border, fully alert and poised for action, with the smoke of battle quietly spreading in the air.

I watched this scene in silence, forgetting to breathe, my mind completely focused on the picture, as if I had entered the television screen.

Finally, all that remained was the surging air currents from my heart pounding against my eardrums.

The long wait of seven months has finally come to an end, and rugby is finally back, even though it feels like seven years have passed.

Arrowhead Stadium was completely silent, with all 15,000 players quiet to ensure that Mahomes' tactical commands could be accurately conveyed.

Tension was high, the atmosphere tense, and even the air seemed thick and almost stagnant. The wait for the word "attack" had been exhausting, and the heart was about to jump out of their chest.

Then, the unexpected happened—

Just as Mahomes was about to kick off, he swallowed the command the moment it left his throat, straightened up, and rearranged the tactics.

The nerves, stretched to the limit, were suddenly interrupted. Like bungee jumping, the body had reached its highest point, and in a daze, it thought it could fly. But it had reached its limit, and the next second it began to fall. Gravity poured into its heart, and the surging gravity instantly stopped it from beating.

On the other side of the front line confrontation, a figure lost control and stumbled forward, breaking the balance and causing a jolt to the tense nerves.

Wow!
In an instant, my heart exploded, and my whole body boiled over.

"Start early!"

"God, yellow flag, early move is a foul!"

"Who could have imagined that the 2020 season would start with a foul?"

"It was a minor surprise, but upon reflection, it wasn't. Clearly, these players, like us, were impatient and eager to start the battle immediately. The desire for clashes, confrontations, and a decisive victory was stirring within them, and they couldn't control themselves any longer, so they started immediately."

"A burst of enthusiasm, a sudden impulse, and then, premature ejaculation happened. It's understandable, perfectly acceptable."

Buzz, buzz.

The entire North American continent began to stir. No one expected that the first moment of the season would be a foul, but amidst the amazement, a sense of reality began to seep into their veins.

As expected of the NFL, it's a typical professional sport, with typical intense competition, and of course, the typical Kansas City Chiefs.

In a rare sight, football fans who usually stick to NCAA games and even local high school games are also turning on their TVs to watch NFL games at this moment.

The seven-month absence of rugby had fueled their burning desire. Their lack of interest in professional matches didn't diminish their need to rekindle the passion for rugby. One by one, they began to chatter excitedly, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere.

So this is the Kansas City Chiefs? The three-time world champion team?
interesting.

Zach Cunningham felt a lump in his throat, unable to spit it out or swallow it down; the feeling from the federation final seven months ago was back.

Frustrated. Helpless. Confused.

Cunningham glared fiercely at Levi, his murderous aura palpable.

Li Wei: ? ? ? It was Mahomes who lied to you about moving early, but you accidentally moved early yourself. It has nothing to do with me at all. Why are you glaring at me?
However, Cunningham will not fall for it again.

Cunningham spat to the side, gave Mahomes a sharp look out of the corner of his eye, then glared at Levi again before slowly backing away to his position.

Cunningham, the 57th pick in the second round of the 2017 draft, was in the same draft class as Levi and Mahomes. He plays as a linebacker. Although his growth rate is slightly slower, he has already established himself in the team and has served as the starting linebacker for two consecutive seasons.

However, the Houston Texans' defense has only one superstar: JJ Watt. No matter how O'Brien orchestrates the defensive tactics, or how well the other players perform, the only person people talk about in the end is Watt.

Cunningham has been in the league for three seasons, but he is still just a nobody.

Originally, at the beginning of the year, during the American League finals, Cunningham attempted to make a splash, showcasing his talent against Levi and Mahomes, and entering the public eye.

But what was the result?

He was ignored, unremarkable, and no one discussed his existence; there wasn't even a voice condemning his poor performance.

A transparent man; he exists, yet he never truly exists.

Before he knew it, he was in fourth grade. This was the last year of his rookie contract. If he didn't step up his game now, he might have to start playing nomadic games.

Cunningham doesn't want to be a nomad; he wants to stay in Houston, he wants to fight for a big contract, and he wants to prove that he deserves this starting position.

This upcoming season will be his last chance.

To everyone's surprise, the opportunity presented itself at the very beginning of the season. The rematch of the conference finals, facing the invincible Kansas City Chiefs, the team that Watt had transferred to, and the combination of his fellow yearrs Levi and Mahomes, was like a godsend.

Cunningham began sharpening his sword early, more focused and dedicated than ever before, more eager for victory than ever before, and entering his peak state at 200%.

If he performs exceptionally well in the season opener, dominating Mahomes and Levi, and also defeating the Kansas City Chiefs, proving himself to be the successor to Watt as the defensive leader after his departure, and shining in the league to earn a place in this fiercely competitive league, then everything will be perfect.

Passionate, focused, giving it his all, burning with fervor—Cunningham's eyes could devour someone.

This was no joke; he genuinely believed he could devour Mahomes and Levi alive, and he would prove his abilities with concrete actions.

This is not just empty talk.

However, from the very beginning...

The referee's voice came through the microphone, "...Houston, number 41, early start, five yards penalty, first turn..."

Humiliation, this was blatant humiliation, like a slap across Cunningham's face that instantly burned his cheek.

Cunningham knew this was an insult, a trick by Mahomes and Levi, who were treating him like a circus monkey, deliberately setting a trap for him to obediently jump into.

But it doesn't matter. He will soon make them pay for their arrogance with his actions, and he will make them lose face on the field.

Then we'll see who's the clown and who's the monkey.

On the side where the frontcourt was facing off, Mahomes stood up calmly, turned his back to the Houston Texans defense, and exchanged a glance with Levi through his helmet.

The two men clapped their right hands together below their bodies, a hint of a smile flashing in their eyes, their spirits lifting slightly.

A dismount.

Mahomes could clearly feel the tension in the game, not only among the Houston Texans but also in the atmosphere at Arrowhead Stadium. The atmosphere was almost suffocating, so he deliberately used a feint to turn the atmosphere into his advantage.

This confidence and composure clearly demonstrate Mahomes' growth and transformation.
