Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 243 Wentz Moment
"00:08".

"20:27".

The former is the game time, with only eight seconds left in the game.

The latter, is the game score, the difference is still within a touchdown.

The Kansas City Chiefs were on the verge of victory and were just one step away from starting the season with two consecutive wins; however, second-year quarterback Wentz stood up, turned on God mode, and played the most exciting run of his career.

Seven passes, seven hits, 100% success rate.

Moreover, in the last offensive play at the front of the red zone, the Kansas City Chiefs defense encountered a sack crisis. They tore open the pocket and attacked, completely catching Peterson off guard. Wentz was like an antelope trapped in a group of lions.

However, Wentz held on.

After dodging three consecutive sack crises, Wentz threw a 13-yard pass to the team's third-year wide receiver Nelson Agholor in the dead corner of the end zone. Agholor almost lost his balance but managed to grab the football from his jaws and complete the touchdown.

The game time is fixed at eight seconds.

Thrilling, exciting, and magical.

Just when everyone thought the victory was already in the Kansas City Chiefs' pocket, Wentz stood up and protested with practical actions.

The Philadelphia Eagles disagree.

"Wow, Wentz moment."

"I'm not sure what just happened, but Wentz seemed to have suddenly opened up. Not only the passing success rate, but the entire observation field, defense reading, and spatial judgment have all reached an incredible level."

"The most important thing is to remain calm and composed in the face of a capture and kill crisis, and to have the perseverance and toughness of a killer to resolve the crisis perfectly."

"It can't be said that the Kansas City Chiefs performed badly, but Wentz entered God mode. They were not on the same level in the head-to-head confrontation."

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

Pash was not stingy with his applause.

"Just when all eyes were focused on the topic of 'rookies vs. goats' in the opening match, this game presented another possibility."

"Look, in the second half, rookie Levi broke the balance by himself and dominated the game as if he was assisted by God. It was hard to take your eyes off him."

"Just when everyone thought the game was over, Wentz stepped up, turned on God Mode, and brought the suspense back to the game."

"'Innocent rookie vs. proud child', a powerful clash between two young people who represent the future of the league, isn't this more interesting? It also adds to the topic of the master-disciple duel between Reed and Peterson."

Pash was a little excited. During his commentary, his words were firing like a machine gun. Just imagining it made my scalp tingle.

The words have elevated the clash of "Levi vs. Wentz" to a new level, enough to replace "Levi vs. Brady" and become the focus of the second week of the regular season.

Jared Goff, who was selected as the No. 2016 pick in the draft ahead of Wentz, currently plays for the Los Angeles Rams: Pash, do you think I'm dead?
Apparently, Pash had not awakened Goff's memory in his brain.

"God, I can't wait for their next encounter."

"Of course, the game is still not over, and we still haven't seen the end, but now the Philadelphia Eagles have only one choice:

Gambling kicks. ”

In Week 1, the Kansas City Chiefs avoided the risk of a gambling kick by extinguishing the New England Patriots' late comeback.

In the second week, what was expected to come finally came, and this time the Kansas City Chiefs couldn't avoid it.

So, what is Onside-Kick?

The gambling kick only occurs during the kick-off phase. Generally speaking, the team that kicks off tends to kick the football as deep and far as possible to limit the opponent's return attack; but there are exceptions, and this is the gambling kick.

The gambling kick, also known as the short kick, is a kick that is not kicked deep or far when the ball is kicked off, but kicked short.

According to the rules, when the football flies ten yards and lands on the ground, it is a live ball and both sides can compete for the ball. So the gambling kick is to kick the football as low and short as possible so that the players on your side can catch up as soon as possible and compete for the ball before the opponent controls the football.

Once successful, it is no longer the opponent's offensive ball, but you will continue to attack.

The difficulty of the gambling kick lies in that when the kick-off begins, the two teams are positioned at the ten-yard lines on either side of the midfield line. That is to say, when the kick-off begins, the football must cross the midfield line - if it does not cross the midfield line, it is disqualified and the kick-off must be repeated.

Generally speaking, a football rolls forward, that is, it continues to roll to the opposite side after landing. Naturally, the opponent has an absolute advantage when fighting for the ball.

The difficulty of gambling kick is very, very high, even more difficult than Hail Mary.

Here, many people have a wrong idea -

Gambling kicks often occur in the final decisive stage of a match, so it is believed that gambling kicks can only occur in the decisive stage.

In fact, this is not the case.

Gambling kicks can occur at any time, but because the success rate is too low, once it fails, it is equivalent to giving the opponent an attack starting position near the midfield line, so teams are often reluctant to try it unless they have to do so in the decisive stage.

In the 2009 season, the final battle of the Super Bowl was between the Indianapolis Colts led by Manning and the New Orleans Saints led by Brees.

At the end of the first half, the Indianapolis Colts were leading, 10:6.

In the second half, the Indianapolis Colts led by Manning took the lead in the offense, but they did not expect the New Orleans Saints to launch a surprise attack. At the start of the game, they chose to gamble and kick, catching their opponents off guard and seizing the ball. This "ambush" also completely reversed the situation.

In the end, the New Orleans Saints defeated the Indianapolis Colts to win the championship.

This was the first gamble kick before the fourth quarter in Super Bowl history. Even fifteen years later, New Orleans Saints coach Sean Peyton's tactical call was still talked about by word of mouth.

Now, the Philadelphia Eagles will choose to gamble and be ready to try a Hail Mary after getting the ball.

From all aspects, the Kansas City Chiefs had a firm grasp of victory and had a firm advantage. There were only eight seconds left in the game. They only needed to control the ball and disrupt the gambling kick, and the victory would belong to them; but competitive sports are like this, until the end, everything is possible.

Wentz earned a chance for the Philadelphia Eagles with an incredible performance.

Now, the pressure is on.

Eight seconds, only eight seconds until the end of the game, but both teams were busy, Reed and Peterson were mobilizing troops, and the special team was busy -

The special forces team, which has always been ignored and neglected, is now the key to the final suspense.

Philadelphia Eagles rookie kicker Jake Elliott took a deep breath and stepped onto the field.

Elliot never thought that the center of attention would fall on him, which made his heart beat wildly.

Although this was not a winning free kick, but a gamble with slim chances, and no one would blame a kicker even if he failed, Elliot still wanted to prove himself.

He longs to shine on this field, and he longs to prove that he can also shine on the field.

Then, Arrowhead Stadium erupted in cheers.

Elliot looked up and clenched his fists, his blood boiling.

It's Levi.

The goal that all rookies aspire to beat.
