Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 44 Come here
Three gears and thirteen codes.

The situation was not good. On the first ground attack, Levi was tackled behind the line of scrimmage and lost three yards. This directly led to huge pressure on the subsequent offense. On the second attack, Bateman tried to pass the ball in the middle, but unfortunately the offensive line encountered huge pressure again. Bateman passed the ball hastily and failed to connect.

Then, we came to our current location.

But this is football. Between offense and defense, the result of each attack may lead to changes in the subsequent offensive strategy, and the situation is changing all the time.

Sweeney's maturity can be seen from the last wave of Tigers' offense and this wave of Tigers' defense. They mainly rely on positional warfare to consume time, and the pressure on the front line of defense has been tightened significantly to create opportunities for themselves.

Sweeney still came up with some countermeasures for the passive situation in the third quarter.

Now, with the long yardage on third down, even if the Crimson Tide wants to attack on the ground, it cannot do so because the ground offense is too inefficient and can be easily overwhelmed by human wave tactics.

Unless Shaban gives up this wave of offense and avoids making mistakes at the front of his own end zone, he will tactically advance the running back to a better punting position.

But is this possible?
Now the Crimson Tide is still ten points behind and there is little time left in the game, so they cannot waste any offensive opportunities.

So, a passing offense?

All the pressure fell on Bateman's shoulders.

Bateman could feel that everyone's eyes were focused on him, and the equipment could burn his skin. His fingertips felt numb and slightly moist, but he turned to look at Levi and noticed Levi's bright eyes.

"We can."

Levi's eyes sent out such a signal, which made Bateman curl his fingers into fists and secretly encourage himself.

Then, get ready to tee off.

On his own 22-yard line, Bateman was ready.

"attack!"

At the command, Bateman took the football from the center, turned around, and Levi's figure appeared, and the two men were out of position.

Running the ball?

No way, the Crimson Tide chose to run the ball on third down and 13 yards?

Or is it a fake run and a real pass?

In a flash, Levi and Bateman made a fake move and faked each other. No matter how others looked at it, the Tigers' defense was indeed shaken.

Subconsciously, they opened up space and prepared to defend passes, especially mid-range and long passes, so they needed to move backwards; but just as they started, they saw the action between Levi and Bateman and paused.

It is during this pause that everyone makes their own judgment and choice, and then the confrontation between the offense and defense unfolds in every corner of the court.

At the same time, Levi went right and Bateman went left, the two men turned their backs to each other and dispersed.

The realistic running, coupled with the visual interference of the offensive line, made it impossible to tell who had the football in their arms, and the defense's judgment became increasingly difficult.

One wave went to the left, another wave went to the right, and the Tigers' defensive team's layout was instantly dispersed.

But they did not panic, because they knew that the Crimson Tide Storm had to complete a difficult situation of 3rd and 13 yards. Even if the defense allowed a 5-yard and 8-yard advance, there would be no problem. Anyway, the Crimson Tide Storm still had not completed the first attack conversion and needed to punt on 4th gear, so they just needed to stay in position.

At this time, the space in the short pass area is slightly looser, while the middle pass area ten yards away is obviously much denser.

of course there are exceptions--

Defensive line.

No matter what tactics they use, they always stay on the front line.

Then, Farrell saw where the football was.

The twenty-third?

It’s actually number 23?
Is Shaban crazy? Faced with such a predicament, he actually chose a ground attack?

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Farrell admitted that even he himself was fooled by Shaban's unexpected tactics. He obviously did not expect it, so much so that he was completely entangled by the offensive tackle Cotton who was facing him.

Oops!

Farrell didn't care anymore and pushed Cotton's helmet away - snap.

Yellow flag, the referee threw the yellow flag immediately.

Although there is no rule for accumulating yellow cards and resulting in penalty kicks in rugby games, yellow flags are still considered fouls and may require penalty yards depending on the severity of the foul.

In cases like helmets, pulling on them can cause serious neck injuries, so the rules strictly prohibit it and a 15-yard penalty will be imposed if it is violated.

In other words, if the referee determines that Farrell pulled the helmet, it will automatically give the Crimson Tide a first attack.

But in Farrell's opinion, this was just pushing and shoving, not pulling. At most, it would be considered a pulling foul, which means a ten-yard penalty. Moreover, he couldn't care about these things now.

Farrell only had No. 23 in his eyes, especially since he had just completed a tackle in the first defensive play, he couldn't wait to make another tackle.

With a push and a swing, Farrell forced Cotton away and took a sideways step trying to rush towards Levi.

Unexpectedly, Cotton was relentless and grabbed Farrell's right leg tightly. Although he failed to control Farrell, he affected Farrell's start.

A kick.

Farrell immediately lost his balance and fell forward, but he still stubbornly pushed the ground and rushed forward, which finally bought him some space. He flew towards Levi's lower body in a posture of worshiping the jade pillar, stretched out his arms, and tightened them with force -

Grapple!

Accurate hit!

Farrell was delighted as he watched Levi fall down following his forward lunge. In the chaos and turmoil, Farrell was unable to tighten his grip and lost control before it even touched the ground. The next second, he saw Levi's legs pull out and continue to push off the ground to move forward.

Farrell: ???

what happened?

He was clearly caught, wasn't he?

Indeed, Farrell tackled Levi.

Levi realized that there was a trap waiting for him ahead. He didn't have time to continue sprinting horizontally to create space and then rush forward vertically. He had to seize the most convenient and fastest way to move forward directly and break through before the trap tightened. As a result, he ran into the tough Farrell.

Levi didn't have time to break free of the tackle.

However, Levi did not give up.

Farrell's tackle was not solid, and Cotton's blocking played an important role, so Levi lost his balance but did not lose control of his body.

With a lunge, before touching the ground, Levi pulled out his left hand to support the ground, and poured down with overwhelming force, and quickly used the reaction force of the support point to gain kinetic energy for the second start.

Push off the ground and exert force.

He straightened his waist and abdomen, then stood up. Without waiting for his body to stand completely steady, he pushed off the ground and rushed forward.

One step, two steps.

Levi managed to stand up miraculously amidst the staggering and confusion, and his shaky balance gradually returned. In a blink of an eye, he had already rushed five yards.

But this time, there was no space. The defensive players standing ten yards away quickly surrounded from all sides, and the gaps and corridors were closed one after another visibly.

Levi was very calm. He noticed the yellow flag just now, but he needed more than just the yellow flag penalty. This time, the ground attack with the ball was still not over! He was ready to firmly grasp the initiative of the attack in his own hands!
Not only calm, but also passionate——

Come on, mountains of swords and seas of fire.

He quickly glanced ahead, without moving rashly, and noticed a gap. He assessed the surrounding situation and then rushed out with firm steps.

One step, two steps...

Just as he took the second step, a fierce force came from the right side, like a high-speed train, directly knocking Levi sideways.

boom!
With a dull thud, all his internal organs began to churn.
