Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 375 A Game

Revis didn't expect that besides himself, there were people who had the same idea. Without hesitation or delay, without worrying about destroying the team's positive atmosphere, he threw it out in front of him -

The world is another me?
However, it's different from Revis.

Levi caught Houston's attention immediately with a joking tone. Revis was a little curious. Why was it okay when Levi said the same words, but it often offended people when he said them out loud?

As soon as he looked up, Revis's eyes collided with Levi's eyes. Then Revis noticed that not only Houston, but his attention was also firmly grasped by Levi, which made Revis's eyes dodge.

It's like being caught.

Revis was a little annoyed. He was just a rookie, why was he panicking?

Houston's calm and confident voice came to my ears.

"I know. You finish your work, and we'll take care of the rest."

There are no big words, but it makes people feel at ease. From offense to defense, the Kansas City Chiefs sounded the clarion call for counterattack.

then.

Revis noticed that Levi's eyes fell on him, generous and open. He thought Levi would pretend to be a leader and make some speeches. He was ready to complain back:

He is neither a quarterback nor the captain of the offensive team, but he is just playing a superhero game there like an idiot.

But Levi didn't.

A look and a nod.

That’s all, just the right amount and just the right amount, and the bond of trust between those who are fighting side by side naturally arises.

trust?

Revis hesitated, without even realizing it, and nodded in response, his peripheral vision involuntarily following Levi's steps as he continued to move forward.

This is not the first time.

The same thing happened in the last wild-card game.

Mariota's outrageous touchdown pass in the second half came from his defense, and Levi was the only player who came forward to show his fighting camaraderie.

Even Revis himself didn't realize that he actually cared.

After all, he is a mercenary. He has been in the NFL for so many seasons that he doesn't even care about winning or losing. He just does what he is paid for. It's that simple.

But deep down, he did care.

If he doesn't care, he has already retired, so why bother hanging around here?
After being cut by the New York Jets, no team was interested in him, as if he were a virus that could infect the whole body with just the slightest touch.

The entire league treats him as a cancer.

From any perspective, retirement is the right and only choice.

He didn't. He refused.

Because he still cares, because he longs to fight, he longs to win, he longs for the feeling of burning on the field.

So, he's back.

It seems that Levi should have seen it now.

Other players tend to keep a distance because of the reputation of "Island King", but Levi, a rookie outsider, does not do that and seems to be completely unaffected.

Not only was he not affected, but he also accepted him as a member of the team in his own way.

This had never happened before. Even after noticing his thorns and sharpness, he still remained friendly, and everything was just right and not too exaggerated.

Revis found it interesting. Maybe there was still some hope for this game?
In front, Houston's voice came. Revis gathered his thoughts and followed him into the stadium. His steps were a little easier, and his eyes fell on Brady.

"Hello, Tom, I want to play a game with you."

Looking back at the first half, the New England Patriots were in full swing, not only the defense, but also the offense, and Brady was the key. Earlier, Lawson emphasized that the New England Patriots are learning to rely on the defense to win, and there is a reason for that, and the direct reason is that the offense also has many problems.

Firstly, there were many injuries to the wide receivers, leaving Brady with no targets to pass the ball to.

Currently, wide receiver Amendola and tight end Gronkowski are Brady's only two receiving points; among them, Amendola performed mediocrely in the regular season and only found his own voice in this game.

Secondly, the running back group is sluggish.

This season, the New England Patriots' ground offense ranks eleventh in the league. They don't have a running back with a thousand yards, and there is no running back who can complete the offensive battle at the critical moment, so the ground offense cannot provide enough support for the passing offense.

Of course, the running backs' slump is as much about the individual players as it is about the offensive line.

Third, the offensive line is sometimes good and sometimes bad.

The pocket protection and ground opening of the offensive line are often overlooked and crucial links. Their front line is not stable this season, and the ground offense has dropped two levels compared to last season, and it is not due to the running back's personal reasons.

At the same time, the New England Patriots' offensive line allowed 35 sacks throughout the season, ranking 16th in the league, and the quarterback was under tremendous pressure.

In the opening game, Brady was already dissatisfied with the performance of the offensive line; but this state continued throughout the season, with ups and downs.

There are more than one or two weaknesses.

However, even with such an offensive group, the final comprehensive ranking is still second in the league. In the final analysis, it is Brady who carries the offensive group forward.

Although the quarterbacks' statistics are very close, Brady is currently a strong candidate for the regular season MVP.

Short passes, fake moves, reading defenses, crisis response, on-the-spot reactions, etc. Brady really used all the skills of the quarterback position to ensure the New England Patriots' excellent offense.

The same was true in the first half of today's game.

In other words, if the Kansas City Chiefs want to stop the New England Patriots' offense, targeting the command brain is the right answer.

And that’s exactly what the Kansas City Chiefs did.

Facing Brady, they cannot simply and roughly put pressure on him by rushing and passing the ball. Although Brady's pocket footwork is comparable to that of a classic car, his long pass ability is far superior to that of Smith. If they are not careful, all their previous efforts may be wasted.

Therefore, they need strategy, planning, and patience.

After returning in the second half, the Kansas City Chiefs significantly increased the proportion of pass rush pressure, trying to take advantage of the New England Patriots' offensive line's weaknesses, but at the critical moment, Brady still relied on his own ability to gain a foothold -

After completing three-down conversions four times, the New England Patriots pushed across half court again.

Brady could obviously feel the pressure. Each offense and defense became more intense, the advancement became more difficult and slower, and the intensity index of the confrontation soared.

But Brady still stood firm, holding on tightly and leading the team forward.

until.

"Raid!"

"The New England Patriots' fake run and real pass did not fool the Kansas City Chiefs at all, and the visiting team's pass rush pressure increased significantly after crossing half court."

"Revis!"

"Wow, a rare sight, cornerback Revis joins linebacker Houston in a raid, the New England Patriots' pocket is broken!"

"Revis! Brady!"

"Brady was still trying to escape, and Revis's tackle failed to control his center of gravity, but the crisis was not resolved, and Houston was right in front of him."

"Wait, Revis! Revis tripped Brady!"

"Capture and kill!"

"Revis sacks Brady! He failed to complete the third down and three yards, and the New England Patriots struck out!"
