Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 764: Crashing into the Wall
Shaquille "Mad" Leonard stood on the sidelines, eager to get on the court.

The scene of myself becoming the creator of the Indianapolis miracle emerged in my mind, those flowers, the applause, the cheers, the tears, and the girls who kept throwing themselves at me. My chest stood taller and straighter, and I couldn't wait to get back on the court.

He is ready.

However, Leonard overlooked one thing——

If he wants to play, he must first ask Reed's opinion.

Not Mahomes, not Levi, but Reid.

After halftime, the Kansas City Chiefs took the lead in the second half.

Reed changed his formation again.

Reid seemed to foresee that the Indianapolis Colts might go all out and choose a pass rush pressure strategy in the second half. Regardless of the ability of the defensive front line, they at least need to apply pressure and prevent Mahomes from passing the ball in his comfort zone.

The reason is very simple. Reitch should realize that Mahomes' secondary defensive reading ability is very good. If a loose pocket is left for Mahomes, Mahomes has enough time and space to observe. That means that even if the defense has the upper hand, Mahomes' on-the-spot adjustments can still find space and find ways to continue to advance.

This is too dangerous.

Therefore, the Indianapolis Colts defense must apply pressure from the front line to make Mahomes feel the pressure.

In the locker room, Reid had planned everything and he had anticipated this.

Therefore, the Kansas City Chiefs increased the tempo of the offense with short passes and ground runs as their foothold, trying to get shots before the defensive front line pressure hits their noses.

The price is that the entire advancement was fragmented, relying on short codes each time, and the third gear situation began to increase.

The result was that the Indianapolis Colts' defensive front line was so exhausted that they didn't even touch the corner of Mahomes' clothes, leaving Leonard with no room to play.

Stumbling and intermittent, but the Kansas City Chiefs' offense continued to move forward. In a trance, it seemed to have returned to the period when Smith was the starting quarterback. The seemingly trivial offense actually pushed past the half court!
However, Reich had to stick with the strategy because the Kansas City Chiefs' offense slowed down and gave the visiting team a third-down opportunity.

At one time, they only needed to seize one opportunity to complete the strikeout.

Leonard became depressed.

He felt like a fool. He attacked and collided again and again, but it was all in vain. He didn't gain any data anyway.

No matter what tackles, sacks or collisions, personal data remains unchanged.

However, one of the important reasons why Leonard is called a madman is that his energy on the court is always bursting out, like a patient with ADHD, he cannot calm down and refuses to calm down.

Taking a deep breath, Leonard was ready.

"attack!"

Mahomes's command to kick off exploded in his ears, and Leonard started immediately, rushing out along the diagonal line in an instant like an arrow from a bow.

Avoid the dense area of ​​confrontation between the front lines, move straight forward along the diagonal line, cross the kick-off line, make a 90-degree turn, and continue to cut straight along the diagonal line.

With just this turn, the Kansas City Chiefs' pocket was completely exposed.

Raid!

The Indianapolis Colts defense once again chose to pounce.

Leonard stared ahead intently, and when he saw Mahomes and Levi were there, and Mahomes was stepping back and looking up at the defense, his eyes lit up.

So, it was a pass?

Leonard's pace did not stop, and even accelerated further.

Levi's figure can be seen coming forward, blocking Mahomes.

The sixth offensive lineman?
This move is something the Indianapolis Colts defense is all too familiar with.

Leonard immediately made a judgment, which meant that it should not be a fake pass run tactic, but most likely a long pass tactic. They have been waiting, guessing, and preventing Mahomes' powerful long pass. Now is it finally waiting? Opportunity!

The more excited he was, the calmer Leonard became.

Right in front of them, Leonard and Levi were about to collide with each other, but this time, it was not Levi who took the initiative, but Leonard.

Leonard braked and changed direction, swaying to the left, but then pulled back and broke through from his right side. Then Levi's figure could be seen reacting half a beat slower, but ultimately unable to keep up.

In the next step, Levi simply rushed forward, ready to forcibly interrupt Leonard's change of direction.

However, Leonard was prepared. He turned sideways, and the two men passed each other face to face. Leonard's action of making way made Levi miss, and then Leonard's footsteps quickly jumped out.

Leonard: Goodbye, stake!
Hehe, he was just waiting for such a moment, to give Levi a taste of his own medicine, to deal with Levi in ​​Levi's way, and then to embarrass Levi.

There was a gust of wind on his eardrums, but Leonard was not satisfied with it.

Leonard has already shaken off Levi and cut into the pocket, with Mahomes right in front of him.

My heart is beating wildly.

Finally, the prey was within reach and within reach.

This is what Leonard is good at. Like Von Miller of the Denver Broncos, he takes the initiative, cuts into the pocket, and relies on his strong personal ability to turn the quarterback and running back upside down, just like Nezha making trouble in the sea.

Sacks. Hit. Pass breakups.

This is Leonard's time to shine.

A smile crept up the corners of his mouth. Leonard guessed that Mahomes should be preparing for a long pass. The quarterback has a swinging arm to accumulate power during the long pass. He needs to dare to use the interruption skill before Mahomes finishes accumulating power.

Accelerate and exert force.

Leonard sprinted at full speed, his body tense, and kept his attention alert, because he knew that Mahomes' pocket footwork should not be underestimated and he had the ability to escape, and he didn't want the meat in his mouth to fly away.

Look, he has thought it all out and has planned everything out.

Apart from--

Leonard saw Mahomes looking at him, his honest face full of innocence. He raised his right hand, without swinging his arm or gathering strength, he just flicked and threw it lightly with his wrist.

Leonard: His smile froze.

Damn it. Damn it. Damn it.

Leonard's whole body was stiff, and he watched the football fly over his head and fly backwards. He just stared at the parabola of the football reflexively and turned his head to look back.

Then I saw Levi.

He moved lightly, sideways, and looked back. There was no trace of the embarrassment of having just missed the tackle. He easily caught the football in his arms.

It turns out that everything is an illusion.

Levi's block and tackle were just an acting performance. It was a waste of time for him to put on a good show by himself, imagining how brilliant and outstanding his performance was and how it would make the commentators applaud. But in the end, Levi was just cooperating in the performance.

Indeed, it was a pass, but not a long pass, but a short pass between two and one, easily breaking up the surprise attack.

Turning his head, Leonard seemed to see the corners of Levi's mouth under his helmet completely raised, and that fleeting expression seemed to say:
Sorry, I have to leave first.

Leonard didn't have time to respond, his center of gravity moved forward, and he missed the target and fell flat on his face.

Not only Levi, but even Mahomes seemed to have seen something dirty. He tiptoed around him and followed him straight ahead.

Leonard was left alone and abandoned behind.
