Dominate the Super Bowl-Chapter 1176 - 1175: Working Together as One
Chapter 1176: Chapter 1175: Working Together as One
Situation, instantly reversed!
Originally, everyone thought that this match might be another blowout, continuing the lackluster trend of the London Bowl, where neither side could put up much of a fight. It seemed like another day of routine clocking in and out for the Kansas City Chiefs in the office, and the hopes placed on the Los Angeles Chargers were once again misplaced.
Unexpectedly, the one launching a desperate counterattack in adversity was the overlooked, underestimated, and forgotten Los Angeles Chargers Defensive group!
Standing firm at the edge of a cliff where they had been retreating time after time, they sounded the horn of counterattack.
Wembley, finally had a match worth watching?
In an instant, Wembley exploded, a mighty surge of support sweeping across the field——
"Go Chargers!"
"Go Chargers!"
One cheer after another; one wave higher than the previous.
Blue and blue formed a continuous expanse, spreading like waves in a wheat field, creating a showdown against the hot red flames.
Energy, ignited.
The home-field advantage belonging to the Los Angeles Chargers was realized for the first time.
Since the Kansas City Chiefs arrived in London, that touch of red spread unstoppably like wildfire, burning fiercely and wantonly, creating a home-like atmosphere at an away game relying on Li Wei’s unparalleled appeal, even tonight at Wembley, they were singing high praises for Li Wei.
Until now.
The home field, finally responded to the call of the Los Angeles Chargers, with thunder and lightning across the entire field——
"Ocean vs. Flame", sound the horn.
For London fans, whether it’s a home game or an away game, what really matters to them is the excitement of the match. They prefer to appreciate a soul-stirring match that they can firmly remember over merely cheering for victory.
Kansas City Chiefs taking the initiative? Exciting.
Los Angeles Chargers fully counterattacking? Cheers!
Let this London Bowl truly show its splendor.
"Go Chargers!"
Led by Bosa, the defensive group truly displayed their momentum, turning the tide, as Rivers ignited the remaining energy in the tank to fully rise.
Flowing like water, with an impressive aura.
Rivers’ beautiful passes are often overlooked and undervalued.
Among the three great rookie quarterbacks of 2004, Rivers didn’t have the clutch ability of Little Manning or the overwhelming presence of Roethlisberger, who could calm a storm. However, similarly, Rivers possesses the comprehensive skills of both Little Manning and Roethlisberger.
He is praised as "Little Brees", and his beautiful accurate passes and ability to spot defensive gaps in chaotic situations place him among the top elite quarterbacks in the league. His excellent resilience against hits also gives him the potential to launch counterattacks on the opponent’s frontline rush pressure.
When Rivers gets into the zone, he is equally unstoppable.
Then, the Los Angeles Chargers scored a touchdown——
Trailing by a close score, relentlessly pursuing!
And that’s not all, the Los Angeles Chargers, who stood firm in adversity and gradually clawed back their disadvantage, are now united from top to bottom in a comprehensive counterattack.
"Interception!"
"Rayshawn Jenkins! Los Angeles Chargers Safety Jenkins intercepts Mahomes’ pass intended for Hill, achieving a turnover!"
"Beautiful!"
"In the crucial moment, under pressure, Mahomes again showed errors in defensive reading and route judgment, but Mahomes did not see Li Wei who already ran open in the short pass zone and instead forcibly attempted a long pass sneak attack trying to connect with Hill to deal a deadly blow."
"Unfortunately, this time the pass arc was obviously too high, Hill couldn’t control the football, only managed to tap it, changing the flight path of the football, finally falling into Jenkins’ embrace, Jenkins completed the interception."
"Los Angeles Chargers erupted continuously in adversity, the defensive group contributed tremendously, playing a key role, with the defensive frontline exerting continuous pressure to disrupt passes; the defensive secondary achieved an interception through joint defense."
"Two consecutive defensive hits sniping Kansas City Chiefs, the suspense of the game is back!"
"Wow, the Kansas City Chiefs were ready to clock out early, but the Los Angeles Chargers protested, ’Hey, did you ask for my opinion?’"
"Hey, don’t forget, all the matches the Los Angeles Chargers lost this season were within one touchdown, whereas in winning games, they managed to widen the score gap."
"This is a team that, regardless of win or loss, can grit their teeth and hold on till the end, with an indomitable spirit that strips the opposing team down to the bone, nobody can retreat easily, especially when facing a divisional archrival?"
Then, the Los Angeles Chargers kicked another field goal.
The Los Angeles Chargers offensive group, under Rivers’ leadership, continued to press strong, but the Kansas City Chiefs Defense, also growing through a season of sharpening, faced a crisis head-on, fully tightening the grip and speeding up to keep pace, eventually stopping the unstoppable Rivers at the edge of the Red Zone.
Rivers, slightly regretfully, couldn’t seize the end zone, and was struck out on three.
Despite this, the Los Angeles Chargers continued to steadily and surely press closer through the field goal, following a wave of chasing back ten points—
"14:13".
The win and loss have returned to the same starting line.
Wembley was engulfed in frenzy, the scene they waited for so long finally appeared:
Even with the London Bowl, with the time difference and environmental impact, completing a grand stage performance for tens of thousands within a few days in an upside-down schedule, and then flipping back to continue competing, spirit and state undergoing dual tests, yet still able to deliver top-level performances comparable to NFL night games.
The last time a knife-edge short-weapon confrontation unfolded in the London Bowl was back in the 2016 season, where all three London Bowls fiercely fought till the last moment to decide victory, but people were momentarily indistinguishable whether it was a peak duel or rookies pecking at each other——
Because out of those six teams in three games, only the New York Giants advanced to the playoffs.
This seems to be becoming a routine:
Only the weaker teams in need of expanding overseas markets truly value the London Bowl, sparing no effort for a seemingly "showcase" event across the Atlantic Ocean.
The strong teams often need to consider the overall picture, even if they comply with the league’s promotion plan by signing an overseas game agreement, they are not inclined to go all out for the London Bowl, sometimes rushing through it for the entire season’s blueprint.
Just perform, that’s enough.
Because of this, since 2007, as the London Bowl became a league tradition, growing from one game a season to now four, they seemingly never witnessed a genuine clash of titans, representing an undeniable regret for London fans.
This season’s three concluded London Bowls were no exception until now—
On one side, standing on the brink, Los Angeles Chargers are fighting with their backs against the wall, with a hundred reasons to go all out.
The key lies in the defending champions Kansas City Chiefs, they remain unbeaten this season even if losing one game seems trivial, they could treat the London Bowl as a practice match, using it to give Mahomes a warm-up after his recovery from injury, they have no imperative to win.
So, now what?
Facing the aggressive Los Angeles Chargers, how will the Kansas City Chiefs respond?
