Dominate the Super Bowl-Chapter 1178 - 1177: Twin Stars Shining

Timing, movement, steps—

Everything is perfect.

Melvin Ingram wastes no time, smoothly cutting into the pocket, reaching Li Wei before he even starts his steps.

Ingram can even see the panicked eyes beneath Li Wei’s helmet, which makes the corners of his mouth lift into a cruel smile:

Lamb, lamb, don’t worry, I’ll be gentle. Oh, sorry, not lamb, but rookie, right?

Push off, step up, lunge forward.

Ingram raises his arms high, persistently diving forward.

Then, Ingram can see Li Wei’s hurried steps continually shifting sideways trying to break free, but the chaotic steps can’t gain any distance, like a pitiful one trembling under the Death God’s scythe in a horror movie, giving Ingram a sense of accomplishment, making him more excited and faster with each step.

One step, two steps, three steps—

Just three steps, and Ingram has already closed the distance, Li Wei within arm’s reach. freēnovelkiss.com

A moment, a pause, four eyes meet.

Ingram and Li Wei’s sights pierce through the helmets and collide.

Li Wei smiles.

Ingram: ???

Li Wei’s eyes and smile lack the panic and fear Ingram expects. The composed stance and cunning gaze seem to mock his foolishness.

Ingram is stunned, a keyword flashes in his mind:

Counterattack.

But, before Ingram can react, without understanding what’s happening, Li Wei raises his right hand high, with a flick of his forearm and wrist, the football is already gliding gracefully and nimbly into the air.

Pass.

Ingram’s heart momentarily clenches, not even time for fear or panic, instinctively jumping on the spot, changing lateral steps into a vertical leap, stretching his arms to the utmost, attempting to block and intercept.

However, it’s too late.

Before Ingram’s feet can escape gravity’s pull, the football is already spinning rapidly past his fingertips, evading the block.

The next second, gravity drags the body down, and the heart sinks with it.

Only now, shame and humiliation instantly drown Ingram’s mind:

Who is the prey?

Not just Ingram and Bosa, in front of the TV, at the Old Oak Tavern, Carter and Felix also hold their breath, eyes widening.

The world stops turning.

Countless eyes watch as the football spins rapidly across the sky, an arcing pass, sailing over the defensive line and linebackers, cornerbacks, rising high and then falling fast, just a short five or six yards pass.

Then, landing in Kelsey’s embrace.

Kansas City Chiefs Wide Receiver Watkins makes a flying dive, breaking open a gap by crashing into Los Angeles Chargers’ Safety Jaylen Watkins.

Kelsey spins and cuts into the gap, advancing swiftly.

A full fifteen yards!

Ah, ah ah ah, ah ah ah.

Felix goes crazy, Carter goes crazy, the entire Old Oak Tavern goes wild.

Everyone is high-fiving, everyone is cheering, celebrating with abandon.

Felix looks at Carter, Carter looks at Felix, a glance is exchanged, both shouting, "Fly!"

Then, laughter unrestrainedly tumbles and surges within their chests, burning freely and joyously.

After being tackled by a double-team hit, but Kelsey easily secures the first down.

Breaking free from the defenders piled on him, Kelsey quickly stands up, jogging towards Li Wei, shouting and roaring all the way.

Leaping high, slapping palms!

The link between the two Kansas City Chiefs’ offensive captains easily toyed with the Los Angeles Chargers’ defensive front, tearing open a gap in the impenetrable defense.

Bosa pants heavily, Ingram seethes with rage—

How could they forget, Li Wei, the running back successfully guest-starring as quarterback this season, when they thought the Kansas City Chiefs would go for a ground attack to open up the game, they never expected the Kansas City Chiefs to use Li Wei as the ultimate decoy, breaking the deadlock with a pass again.

Damn it!

"Obviously, the Kansas City Chiefs haven’t prepared to just get through this game hastily, they still aim for victory, their fighting spirit showing no signs of fading."

"If Wembley desires a showdown, then we indeed have a showdown now, in this stalemate, the Kansas City Chiefs of this season have proven more than once their ability to break through as long as they wish, they can remain highly competitive at any time."

"The Los Angeles Chargers Defense Group faces a dilemma, as the next moves of the Kansas City Chiefs Offense will be unpredictable, maybe even further speeding up."

"Now, the all-out frontal suppression strategy of the Los Angeles Chargers Defense Group starts to seem monotonous. They need to realize that the Kansas City Chiefs Offense is adapting to such intensity and rhythm. If the defensive tactics are not adjusted in time, it might become a loophole for the Kansas City Chiefs’ counterattack."

Professionals, indeed, the analysts’ viewpoints in the live room are correct.

Kansas City Chiefs at their own forty-yard line, first down, ten yards to go.

"Attack!"

As Mahomes calls for the snap again, the Los Angeles Chargers’ defensive front opts for a seven-man rush, led by Bosa and Ingram’s defensive line, not only do linebackers step up, but cornerbacks step up as well—

This is Los Angeles Chargers’ adjustment in defensive strategy, pressure, pressure, and more pressure, if the pass rush pressure so far hasn’t been effective, they just need to increase the level of pressure, to fully let Mahomes feel the pressure, and they can break the offensive-defensive balance.

Defensive line, linebackers, cornerbacks, safeties, each position completes a crossover and switch, a dazzling alternation ending with a seven-man rush.

A torrent of power rushing head-on, pouring down with a do-or-die momentum.

Bam! Bam bam bam!

Collision, all-out explosion.

However, it’s apparent that Mahomes’ retreating steps remain calm.

The Kansas City Chiefs are mentally prepared for the opponents’ defensive schemes and increase in pace, even with a seven-man rush, as the pocket becomes perilous with the sound of urgency, Mahomes, like a tiny boat in a storm, constantly on the verge of capsizing, dangerous and shaky, yet his steps remain steady.

Retreating step, one step, two steps, three steps.

This is clearly a passing motion, making the Los Angeles Chargers Defense Group’s upward pressure become stronger and faster.

Yet unexpectedly, after Mahomes retreats to create space, he turns and hands off the football to Li Wei beside him—

For the second time in a row, Mahomes hands the football to Li Wei.

Now, the question arises: is Li Wei prepared to play a running back or quarterback?

The Los Angeles Chargers Defense Group doesn’t panic, but their hearts tighten, the momentum of their upward rush clearly rising a notch, someone is already cutting into the pocket from both sides.

On the left, Cornerback Hayward.

On the right, Defensive End Bosa.

A dual trap, they’re ready to complete a backfield tackle, whether Li Wei intends to play the role of a running back or quarterback, they need to extinguish the offense immediately.

The same mistake can’t happen twice in a row, they refuse to step into the same river again.
