Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 1629 Lure the enemy deeper
Resolute! Decisive! Tough! Fierce! Brutal!

Cunningham's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty glint as he lunged at Mahomes with murderous intent, and upon realizing Levi's panic, he charged forward with all his might.

near!

Closer!

Mahomes had nowhere to run and was completely in Cunningham's grasp.

Just then, Cunningham seemed to catch a glimmer of light in Mahomes' eyes—

Wait, what does that mean?
Before Cunningham could react, Mahomes had already raised his right hand and flicked it lightly. Without exerting any force, he effortlessly used the power of his wrist to lift the football over Cunningham's head.

Cunningham: ...

Watching helplessly as the football soared over him, a simple, basic one-two pass rendered all of Cunningham's efforts futile.

Cunningham believed he was in control, but little did he know that he was the one who had fallen into the trap, foolishly walking into the snare like a idiot.

brake!

Cunningham tried to stop and turn abruptly, but his body was as stiff as a mummy and he couldn't control it at all. Only then did he realize that Mahomes's deceptive passing move was just a bait to lure the enemy in, with the aim of disrupting the Houston Texans' entire attack strategy, not just targeting Cunningham.

So, who's the idiot?
Cunningham's attempts to control his body ultimately failed; inertia and speed dragged him, causing him to stagger and fall toward Mahomes.

perish together!

"Yellow flag!"

"Rough treatment of the quarterback!"

"Houston Texans linebacker Cunningham received a series of yellow flags at the start of the game, and the fourth-year player lost his composure when facing Mahomes."

"Regardless of how this drive goes, Cunningham single-handedly gave the Kansas City Chiefs their first down."

"The Houston Texans special teams managed to keep the three-time defending champions' offensive starting position within the ten-yard line, but Cunningham's impulsiveness ruined the team's efforts, and the Kansas City Chiefs have already made it out of the red zone without lifting a finger."

Cunningham: Damn!

However, Li Wei did not notice the yellow flag.

Even if he noticed, it wouldn't affect Levi's movements. After easily picking up the rugby ball, he adjusted himself with two quick steps and was ready to charge forward.

A scan of the court reveals the clear positioning of the Houston Texans' defense.

The defensive line and cornerbacks pushed forward, while the safety guards dropped back, creating a significant gap between the two defensive lines and leaving a large open space in the middle.

O'Brien's strategy was simple and clear: put all their pressure on Mahomes on the front line, and if Mahomes managed to get out of trouble and complete the pass, then their focus would be on long passes, relying on safety guards to cut off long-running attacks.

However, Reed clearly noticed the urgency of the Houston Texans, their unwavering determination to go all out, and their strong belief in a head-on confrontation.

So Reed used a tactic of luring the enemy in deep, relying on the cooperation of Mahomes and Levy to disrupt the rhythm, and once again handed the football to Levy.

It appears to be a pass, but it's actually a run.

Li Wei's footwork remained behind the tee line, no different from running the ball.

But Levi quickly noticed the uneven and heavily skewed positioning of the Houston Texans' defense, with all three defensive forwards and two linebackers clustered in the middle, leaving the flanks relatively weak.

Then, Li Wei started it.

With a powerful push and a surge, he charged towards the right flank, where Kelsey was positioned diagonally ahead. It seemed he was preparing to use Kelsey's screen to complete his breakthrough. The Houston Texans' defensive players on that side went into overdrive. The outside linebacker and cornerback both felt a chill; the safety was too far away to provide help, leaving them to rely solely on the two of them.

However, the two of them were facing Li Wei.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. The guard was about to move laterally to block Li Wei's vertical route, but instead ran headfirst into a wall.

Kelsey!
Kelsey took a step back, stood still, and waited for the cornerback to walk right into her trap.

As it turned out, Kelsey was unharmed, while the corner guard retreated in a sorry state. Kelsey quickly raised her hands high to show her innocence and kept shouting.

"I didn't touch him, really, I didn't."

In that brief split, Levi returned, made a sudden stop and change of direction, and pulled back to the left. Facing him was the astonished look on the face of outside linebacker Whitney Mecerus, whose eyeballs inside his helmet almost popped out.

Mecerus assumed that Levi should use Kelsey's post-up move to get to the outside and break through on the flank with the speed of a fringe player.

but!

Li Wei pulled back unexpectedly, catching Mercedes off guard. Mercedes, who was moving laterally, didn't have time to adjust his steps before Li Wei crashed into him.

As a first-round pick in 2012, Mecerus has managed to play alongside Watt for so many years at the Houston Texans and remain in the starting lineup, which shows he has some skills.

In a flash, Mercedes held his breath, abandoning any attempt to adjust or keep up with Levi's pace.

Because he knew that rapid changes of direction in a short period of time were Li Wei's strengths, and only a handful of exceptional players in the entire league could keep up with him.

Anyway, he's not in that category.

Like Kelsey, Mecerus simply transformed into a tree stump, standing still and blocking the way, waiting for Levi to walk right into his trap.

Maintaining the status quo.

In his panic, Mecerus found the right way to deal with the situation.

The next second—

boom!
Sure enough, Mercedes was right. Levi rammed straight into him, and the two collided violently.

At this moment, Mecerus actually had the advantage because he had taken a stance in advance to stabilize his center of gravity and prepare for the impact, while Levi was changing direction and moving at high speed, his center of gravity was unstable. In the collision between the two, Levi was immediately swept into the wave of reaction force, and his steps and center of gravity were completely disordered.

It wasn't obvious on the surface, but in reality, Li Wei's steps had already broken free from the constraints of gravity, and he was swaying and staggering.

At that moment, a gentle force struck him, and Li Wei was about to be sent flying.

But is that all?
If Li Wei could get stuck so easily, he wouldn't be Li Wei.

Just as Mercedes was about to retaliate against Levi, he discovered that Levi had simply used the swaying motion to defy gravity, stood on tiptoe, and pulled his body back. He then pressed his upper body against Mercedes' chest, exerting all his strength and crushing his entire weight onto Mercedes' valves.

With the valves suppressed, Mercedes was temporarily unable to move.

Li Wei's steps were light and agile, dancing gracefully. With a 360-degree counter-clockwise turn, Mercedes stood there like a steel pipe, watching helplessly as Li Wei changed direction for the second time in a row, turning his left-side lateral movement into a right-side lateral turn.

In a flash, Levi had already turned around and left, giving Mercedes no time to catch her breath. Amidst the jolts and chaos, his footsteps brushed against Mercedes' left arm, and he darted out through the gap between Mercedes and Kelsey.

By the time Mercedes reacted and lunged forward, he missed completely and tumbled forward in a sorry state.

Mercedes: ? ? ? Where is he?
