Dominate the Super Bowl-Chapter 1004 - 1003 A Game
Campbell, the defensive end, is like a mountain of flesh.
307 pounds (139 kilograms), standing over two meters tall, stretching his arms creates a shadowy expanse, lacking agility but possessing powerful strength.
Once targeted, it truly hurts.
However, Mahomes and Li Wei once performed a blinding technique with fake moves, disrupting Campbell’s rhythm, though Campbell’s secondary reaction was already very quick, he still couldn’t compare with Li Wei.
With a lateral step, Li Wei had already shifted positions.
Campbell still didn’t give up, stretching his arms, continuously flapping.
Seeing Li Wei about to crash head-on into Campbell’s column-like arms.
Li Wei suddenly bent his knees, lowered his body, leaned back his upper body, continued stepping forward, lightly and deftly passing under Campbell’s arms.
Campbell grabbed air, with the fierce wind blowing, couldn’t see anyone in front, and his body’s center of gravity flew directly forward as his heart sank.
Meanwhile, the way ahead for Li Wei cleared just as he confirmed his suspicion:
The pass rush pressure was only auxiliary; the real defensive focus of the Jacksonville Jaguars was still on passing.
Marrone is bold and crazy, with a moth-to-a-flame attitude, because he knows he has no room to be conservative.
The vast majority believed Reed wouldn’t dare to fake a run and actually pass four times in succession, yet Marrone thought Reed might do just the opposite:
All three previous pass targets were different, so it was entirely possible to choose a different pass target to open the situation on the fourth try.
Marrone had a guess that Li Wei might have some minor injuries, not in his best form, so Reed didn’t continue last season’s balanced offensive strategy and put Li Wei in a decoy position initially to completely open up the passing offense.
So Marrone took a gamble.
On the frontline, pretend to rush pass pressure, but actually adopt a standard four-man rush, relying on Campbell’s individual ability to breakthrough, creating chaos.
On the second line, defend in matchups, focus the pressure on Kelsey, compressing passing space as much as possible and applying pressure to Mahomes.
Because of this, the Kansas City Chiefs’ wide receivers and tight ends spread out, creating space for Li Wei’s ground advance in this manner, while the Jacksonville Jaguars defenders also spread out, momentarily neglecting the frontline anomaly.
In front of Li Wei, the gap was apparent—
There was only one lineman left, Najee Goode (Najee-Goode).
Having wandered different teams since entering the league in 2012, this player faced the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2017 season with the Philadelphia Eagles but only as a backup, not heavily involved in the defense.
Goode, weighing 244 pounds (111 kilograms), was stationed here to prevent Li Wei from breaking out, an insurance for Marrone’s bold defense strategy.
Anyway, Goode is not fast, struggling in matchup against wide receivers to maintain close defense in the deep areas, better left in short pass zones to fill the gaps.
At this moment, seeing Li Wei truly appear with the ball, Goode was immediately alert—
What to do, what to do, what should he do?
The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, Li Wei’s reputation precedes him, intimidating ordinary players, furthering when Li Wei advances strongly ahead, the air pressure surges forward, first imposing on him ruthlessly.
Instantly, the heart pounded uncontrollably.
Goode held his breath, lowered his center of gravity, stretched his arms as a barrier across Li Wei’s path, trying to delay Li Wei’s advance momentarily.
Then... expecting teammates to quickly follow up and defend, feeling inadequate to stop Li Wei alone.
In his pupils, the outline of Li Wei swiftly approaching, agile and quick, with an instantaneous movement, Goode hadn’t even blinked, the red hue had already stormed forward like a tempest.
Help!
Goode clenched his teeth, closed his eyes, bracing for a direct collision, hoping his weight would be advantageous.
Wait, nothing, nothing happened, all calm and tranquil.
Goode: What’s happening?
Li Wei feinted, shifting left and right, easily shook off Goode, Goode’s strong yet clumsy body stood obediently like a pile, Li Wei effortlessly accomplished a breakthrough.
Forty-yard line, left behind, continuing towards the thirty-five-yard line ahead.
Easily, like taking something out of a bag, entering an unimpeded realm.
This is Li Wei’s first rush of the new season, effortlessly, after observation and anticipation, set ahead before competitors, breezily broke through the defense, speed still accelerating, appearing to game through life, nimble footsteps entering an uninhabited realm.
Thirty-five-yard line!
Suddenly, from the diagonally right side a gust of fury stormed in.
With killing intent abundant.
It was Ramsey.
Resolute, determined, focused, with an unusual ruthlessness.
Ramsey is a talented cornerback, albeit aspiring to be an "Island King" like Revis, his style resembles more of "Big Mouth" Sherman, relying on physicality to counter, suppressing in close combat.
So, he enjoyed the competition with Kelsey, a confrontation that he liked.
Now, it’s no different.
Concentrated, unstoppable, releasing solitary explosive energy.
Ramsey knew there was something about Li Wei, this Barbie doll wasn’t so simple; thus, he was likely the first in the secondary defense to react—
Anyway, Kelsey and others were already under watch, Ramsey bore no burden, running straight at Li Wei to attempt a tackle before Li Wei completed the first-down conversion.
Four consecutive first-downs?
Ha, dream on.
Ramsey’s speed and burst instantly released, without hesitation, doubts, or distractions, knowing he mustn’t allow Li Wei room to respond.
A gap means opportunity, Li Wei likely would exploit a lapse.
Ramsey wouldn’t offer Li Wei such a chance.
Visibly, Ramsey tipped like a missile, hurling at Li Wei.
Li Wei didn’t dodge.
Furthermore, Li Wei unyieldingly charged toward Ramsey.
The combined speeds made Li Wei and Ramsey resemble two runaway high-speed trains, seemingly about to collide on the track.
The outcome could be catastrophic, a mess.
The overwhelming momentum held the entire Arrowhead Stadium and audience gripping breath, waiting for the collision, witnessing a disaster.
Yet, as the collision seemingly approached—
Li Wei suddenly accelerated, sprinting rightward a stride.
One step, side-stepping.
Seeing Li Wei about to brush past Ramsey’s left arm, Ramsey showcased his talent again, unleashing his left hand amidst a lightning moment, unable to shift his center of gravity, aiming to intercept Li Wei.
The recent breakthrough of Li Wei against Campbell vividly recalled without reliving the same mistake, allowing Li Wei another identical breakthrough again, mocking their defense group like monkeys again.
Ramsey clenched his teeth, releasing power, in a mutually destructive stance.
Everything, too fast.
The next second, Li Wei was about to crash into Ramsey’s left arm.
Still a disastrous impact, losing balance would mean irrecoverable.
