Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 348 Take the initiative
The world is silent.

West and Anderson in the Old Oak Tavern, Berry in the hospital lobby, Pash in the broadcast booth, Lawson and Bart in the studio, Jacobs and Clark in the Atlanta Hotel, and the thousands of fans watching the game at Arrowhead Stadium -

Silence fell.

All, hold your breath.

Even Provos is no exception.

After being kicked out of the Old Oak Tavern, Provos didn't go far. He returned to his car and turned on the car radio to listen to the live broadcast.

Open, close; open again, close again.

In the end, he still couldn't control himself. He turned on the radio, covered his ears with his hands, looked forward, tried to catch the sound coming from the radio through the gap, and listened quietly to the radio waves flowing in the noise of his beating heart and boiling blood. The whole world stopped turning.

Then, all the noise disappeared, and only the passionate commentary on the radio was burning.

A surprise: When the Kansas City Chiefs faced a critical moment on the brink of elimination from the playoffs, they chose to run the ball instead of passing it.

Although the Kansas City Chiefs' ground offense ranks first this season, and although Levi's outstanding performance this season has earned him a place in the regular season MVP debate, this is the playoffs, this is a decisive battle, and this is Reid's team that excels at passing offense.

They chose to run the ball.

Or to be more precise, Reed chose Levi over Smith.

Two surprises: "Edge Walker" Levi gave up his best advance on the two wings and chose to break through the middle.

Although Levi has performed countless miracles this season and no one can regard him as a rookie, the nickname "rookie" has become a compliment. But to be honest, Levi's strengths are speed, change of direction and agility. He and Henry are two completely different running backs.

Choose mid lane?

Are you really out of your mind?
Suffocating moments, critical junctures, accidents followed one after another, so that the brains of all the audience had stopped working and were completely unable to keep up with the changes. They simply gave up thinking and stared at the big screen, holding their breath, watching the big red flame crash into the storm.

Jarrell Casey, defensive end, although his personal ability cannot be compared with Watt of the Houston Texans, Mark of the Oakland Raiders, and Donald of the Los Angeles Rams, and his career also lacks admirable and amazing battles. The only thing worth mentioning is that he has been selected to the Pro Bowl for the past two seasons.

however!
This season, it was Casey's tough performance at critical moments, together with forward Sylvester Williams and linebacker Olakapo, that formed the Tennessee Titans' first line of defense for the counterattack, helping the team to make it to the playoffs.

Being low-key doesn’t mean not being outstanding enough.

At this moment, that is the case.

At the first moment, Casey caught the red flame, and a secondary reaction broke out in a flash, trying to get rid of his opponent and intercept Levi.

but!

A figure, Bryan Witzmann, the starting left guard of the Kansas City Chiefs, was stuck in position, lying in front.

One-time booking. It's that simple.

Casey's attempt to rush towards Levi was blocked. Although Casey completely ignored Wittman and stretched out his right hand with all his strength, it was of no avail.

Snapped.

One swing and nothing.

Casey watched helplessly as Levi rushed out from the gap between him and Williams——

Kansas Chief, premeditated.

Originally, the Tennessee Titans had a "3-4" defensive formation with only three defensive linemen; now, in order to defend against the Kansas City Chiefs' passing attack, especially the passes close to the sidelines on both sides, the entire defensive formation has been slightly spread out to both sides, and the heavy accumulation of troops in the middle has also been dispersed.

Moreover, after a season, everyone has a stereotype of Levi: a two-wing killer.

Like Olakapo, when other players noticed that Li Wei had the ball, their first subconscious reaction was to move towards the wings instead of the middle.

Inertial thinking can easily harm people.

They completely forgot that when playing against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Levi's first catch as a wide receiver was a breakthrough through the middle into the end zone.

Premeditation, calculation, and layout. On the surface, this is a risky choice; but behind the tactics, it is a well-thought-out ambition.

step!
Two steps!

Levi followed the ballet steps of the Four Little Swans and, with the help of his offensive teammates, lightly crossed the obstruction of the defensive line and escaped.

Is that all there is?
No.

Casey refused to surrender, and at the critical moment burst out with incredible energy, shaking off Wittman inexplicably and rushing towards Levi's back.

Although Casey's steps were still a little slow and he was unable to complete the grapple, his hands were fully stretched out and he slapped Levi's back hard.

Ah!
Uh!
One sound was Casey's outburst, the other was Levi's groan, and the two figures just staggered apart.

Levi didn't have time to stand firm, let alone accelerate his steps, before his balance was lost and he staggered forward.

Oops!

Right in front of him, Levi immediately noticed the figure of Tennessee Titan No. 98——

Olakapo.

On the first step, Levi made a feint and Olakapo was half a beat slow in starting.

On the next moment, Casey's powerful attack destroyed Levi's center of gravity and bought time for Olakapo.

As the two people came back and forth, they collided head-on.

"Levi vs. Olakapo".

This is not all.

Just half a beat slower, just a hair's breadth, another inside linebacker, Avery Williamson, had already reacted and rushed up.

Responded very promptly.

In extremely difficult and dangerous situations, Levi became calmer.

They chose to break through the middle, and although they made a feint to avoid the heavily-armed areas on both wings, the Tennessee Titans' short pass zone defense was indeed impenetrable. The first wave of defense, the second wave of follow-up, and the third wave of containment were at a very fast pace, and they completely treated it as a red zone defense.

Naturally, Levi had anticipated the possibility of this scene before this wave of attack began.

Don't panic. Don't be afraid.

While adjusting his steps and assessing the situation, Levi read quickly, trying to find the best solution for a breakthrough.

At this moment, Levi's footwork and ability to change directions are truly tested. His moving space is only about two to three yards in radius. There are people all around him, front, back, and left. How to fight his way out of the dense crowd is the most important and severe test of the entire season.

opportunity!

Levi noticed that Olakapo was trying to launch an attack, leaving a flaw. He immediately moved to the right, trying to pull Olakapo to the right, then made a feint, pulled back to the left, and rushed towards Williamson, simply and cleanly passing the wall.

But, the trap!
Levi is plotting against Olakapo, and Olakapo is actually also plotting against Levi.

Olakapo knew Levi's ability to change direction and his starting speed. In a split second, he did not choose to sit and wait for death, but took the initiative to attack boldly and riskily, deliberately exposing a flaw.

That is the brief moment of breathing.

Olakapo took the lead, pushed off the ground, jumped, and pounced -

Grapple!

Having caught it, Olakapo grabbed Levi's waist accurately.

Got it!
