Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 449 United as One

In fact, Revis has only been with the Kansas City Chiefs for less than two months, and he is no different from a mercenary. He is not familiar with most of the team members.

And Berry?
Even more of a stranger.

They had never trained or played together, and hadn't even formally introduced themselves to each other. If Revis told Berry how much he trusted and respected the captain of the defensive team, even Berry himself would probably have laughed it off.

But at this moment, these circumstances did not prevent Revis from standing behind Levi.

He knows the pain of injury, he knows the loneliness of a veteran with unyielding ambition, and he knows the bitterness of being torn between the dilemma of retiring and continuing to fight.

Revis has experienced all of this and is still experiencing it.

He knew better than Levi and the others the pain that Berry was facing at this moment.

It is precisely because of this that the support of Levi and others is even more precious.

At that time, Revis also needed such support, but unfortunately he did not find it and could only rely on his own strength to grope forward in the darkness.

And now.

Revis looked at Levi, who was standing in front of the team, and felt a little envious of Berry and a little admiration for Levi.

Would his reputation as a troublemaker in the locker room be slightly different if he were able to play behind such a captain?

One. Two. Three, four, five.

All the players of the Kansas City Chiefs stood behind Levi. Not to mention Berry, even Childress couldn't help but feel excited when he saw this scene.

Levi, on the other hand, remained firm, his bright eyes motionless under the sunlight.

"Also, let me tell you, what's going to happen next?"

"You will bandage your heel and ride in a wheelchair to Minnesota to watch the Super Bowl. You will witness us win the Super Bowl. You will be itching to play in the game right away, but you can only push your wheelchair and wait to receive your first championship won by yourself amid our ridicule and complaints."

"You will continue to rehabilitate, you will get through the longest, most helpless and most difficult ten months of your life, and then come back to face the difficulties and challenges with us and fight to defend the title."

"No one said it would be easy, especially for a 30-year-old guy. Maybe the whole league will be in trouble. Maybe in a few days no one will even talk about it anymore."

"but."

“Do you remember who won the league’s Comeback Award in the 2015 season?”

Bailey was stunned——

The so-called Comeback Award is used to honor players who have fallen into a slump for various reasons but have climbed to the top again. Every year the league votes to select the winner.

In December 2014, Berry was diagnosed with lymphoma and had to miss the rest of the season and enter a long and arduous treatment process.

In 2015, Berry returned from injury and completed a perfect season. He not only made the Pro Bowl, but also made the All-American First Team, winning the Comeback Award that season with his undisputed performance.

It was only three short years since that nightmare.

But now, Berry must hold his head high again and fight for his career, not only for the championship and victory, but more for stepping onto the field again, feeling the running, the chasing, the collisions again, and feeling the burning adrenaline again.

"Eric Berry."

"The name is Eric Berry."

"If there is someone on the team who can overcome injuries and age and stage a miracle comeback, I would choose Eric Berry first."

"Because he is the man who escaped death."

"We wait for this man to once again fight for the sport he gave everything for and for his life." "When that time comes, when we stand on the Super Bowl stage again, you give me this coin again. Trust me, it's my bet. It's mine. I can't get away from it."

Haha.

Berry couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.

However, after laughing, bitterness and sighing began to linger on the tip of the tongue.

Berry couldn't help but look at Levi, his mind was filled with a surging stream of thoughts. He was caught off guard and his nose felt a little sore, and his vision was blurred. This made Berry a little embarrassed. He hurriedly looked up at the sky to cover himself and quickly changed the subject.

"You're so confident about reaching the Super Bowl? Are you sure?"

Levi nodded, "Yeah."

The clean and neat response actually made Berry stunned.

Not only him, but all the other players also looked at Levi in ​​a daze.

Levi smiled and said, "If there is only one person in the world who believes that we can reach the Super Bowl, it should be us."

“Even if everyone is against us, we should still believe in ourselves.”

"I didn't read the news, and I don't know whether people support the Philadelphia Eagles more or us more; but in my opinion, we are our own biggest supporters. We believe that we can win, we believe that we can fight to the end, we believe that we can fight to the last second in the face of any difficulties, and we believe that the story of the Kansas City Chiefs is not over yet."

"So, Eric, come watch the battle and fight with us."

Berry: ...

Berry didn't expect himself to be so embarrassed. The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he choked up. The warmth in his eyes surged up and he almost couldn't control it. He hurriedly lowered his head and rubbed his eyes, mumbling and trying to explain, but his words were vague and incomprehensible.

Houston noticed this and complained mercilessly, "Someone said that the most annoying thing in the world is people who whine and cry."

Haha.

Amidst the laughter, Berry quickly wiped the remaining embarrassment from his cheeks and shouted to Houston, "Get lost."

Houston has regained his sanity. Levi has already taken on the responsibility of being the captain. He has no reason to sabotage. "It's settled. If anyone is prepared to object, I don't want to hear it. All of you get out."

Hahahaha, everyone burst into laughter.

Revis also didn't expect that he would fall in love with Kansas City.

Revis came from the New York Jets and later went back once, but in the New York Jets, he never got the respect he earned. The turmoil in the locker room and the chaos in the management made them fall into a vortex of infighting day and night. Even though the New York Jets gave him everything he has now, he never really liked this team.

Later, he moved to the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers respectively. The former gave him the only Super Bowl championship ring in his career, but he did not like Belichick's meticulous military style; while the latter was a pure mercenary and left after just one season.

Although Revis was said to be one of the top cornerbacks in the second decade of the 21st century, he never found his team.

Revis himself did not expect that he would feel the warmth of belonging in the Kansas Chiefs.

So, is this real, or am I just getting old and soft?

However, Revis admitted that watching this scene, he did find the peace that had been elusive in the past ten years.

There were still some tears in Berry's eyes. He looked at Levi through his tears. Levi looked at Berry with firm and bright eyes, showing his belief.

Slowly, Berry closed his palm and clenched the coin again, and then clenched it again:

He will not miss this promise again.
