Chapter 1100: 1099 Core Figures
The energy erupted at Arrowhead Stadium was unbelievable, the whole world blazed, scorching, boiling, and oxygen was rapidly consud.
The Green Bay Packers players seed slightly stifled.
Covered in sweat, flushed red, their chests heaving like bellows, their physical stamina already severely depleted, now they were starting to suffocate.
This feeling was terrible.
Seventy-three seconds, seventy-five yards, four first downs, one touchdown—
Unstoppable.
The Kansas Chiefs Offense showcased absolute dominance, their fluid and versatile offensive pushes making the Green Bay Packers Defense look like rookies, clumsy, spinning in place, completely at a loss, revealing all their flaws.
It’s no wonder that Arrowhead Stadium was in a frenzy, and even the professionals and coaches focused on this rematch of the first Super Bowl were stunned.
It was initially thought that Mahos’ absence would be a weak spot in the critical quarterback position, which could expose flaws in the Kansas Chiefs’ famous offense.
But unexpectedly, they beca witnesses to Li Wei’s personal performance.
In Indianapolis, Lucas Oil Stadium, in the visiting team’s locker room.
The Houston Texans appeared dispirited, after losing to the Kansas Chiefs last week, this week they also lost to their division rivals, the Indianapolis Colts.
Everyone in the Houston Texans believed that without Andrew Luck, they could easily defeat the Indianapolis Colts for revenge; instead, the Colts delivered a textbook-level ga to defeat the Texans, teaching their division rivals a lesson.
The locker room, especially oppressive.
Until Watt turned on the radio, catching the mont the Kansas Chiefs sounded the counterattack horn during the Sunday night ga broadcast.
Without a starting quarterback, under trendous pressure facing crises alike, the Kansas Chiefs and Indianapolis Colts were equally tough.
Watt’s eyes brightened, showing a big smile, “Hey, did you hear that? That’s my guy.”
Locker room:…Boss, everyone in the league knows that Li Wei is your good bro. You don’t need to rub salt into our wounds, okay?
But Watt laughed heartily, full of pride, “Look at my guy, he can single-handedly carry the team forward, while we’re sitting here sighing like a bunch of kittens, no wonder he won so easily last week.”
Locker room: Swish, swish, swish! Boss!
In an instant, eyes widened in anger.
Watson lifted his head abruptly, staring intensely at Watt.
Watt didn’t mind at all, instead, he glared back fiercely, “What, can’t handle losing? If you don’t even have the courage to face your own failures, how can you pursue victory?”
“Do you believe it? My guy can defeat Green Bay, and he will prove with actual actions that you are all cowards with no guts.”
Locker room: Silent as a crow.
Watson gritted his teeth, clenched his fists so tight that you could hear the sound of teeth grinding, subtly echoing in the quiet locker room.
Only the voice from the radio lingered, “…Although Green Bay still maintains a score lead, as I said, facing Li Wei leading the Kansas Chiefs, the advantage of two possessions is far from enough.”
The impact expanded entirely.
The morale of the Green Bay Packers was visibly suppressed, not only the defense but the offense as well—
From “14:0” to “14:7,” the psychological pressure brought by the entire score was distinctly different.
Moreover, the touchdown by the Kansas Chiefs ca so effortlessly, even without Mahos, their ntality started to waver.
This ant that the Green Bay Packers Offense faced a complete compression of error margins; with slight carelessness, the Kansas Chiefs might reverse the situation—
This scene is not unfamiliar, the entire league witnessed the Kansas Chiefs persistently overturn difficult impositions and continue winning in the 2017 season playoffs.
The heart pounded relentlessly, instantly drying up the mouth and tongue.
Maybe, Rodgers was the only exception.
Persist in oneself. Focus on oneself. Do well by oneself. That is enough, they should prioritize themselves; this is the correct way to reach the winning side.
Rodgers knew that comprehensively suppressing the Kansas Chiefs was an impossible task, even without Mahos, not due to believing in Li Wei, but because he lacked confidence in the Green Bay Packers Defense.
Heh.
Originally, Rodgers also believed that the lack of Mahos could give Green Bay Packers so advantage, but now it seems the expectation was too high.
In the end, it still depends on the offense.
From here, as long as the offense continues to score touchdowns, the Green Bay Packers can suppress their opponents, even if Li Wei is strong, he is ultimately just a running back, creating a miracle once doesn’t an he can carry the Kansas Chiefs across the entire field, the victory still belongs to the Green Bay Packers.
Therefore, Rodgers needs to maintain one hundred percent concentration, completely focusing on himself.
Amidst the chaos and uproar, the Green Bay Packers Offense took the field.
“The initiative still lies with the Green Bay Packers.”
“Aaron Rodgers, as long as he stands on the field, no one can underestimate the Green Bay Packers. Next, it still depends on Rodgers’ response.”
All eyes focused on number twelve of the Green Bay Packers.
So much that people montarily forgot about the Kansas City Chiefs Defense, who were hidden in the shadows outside the spotlight.
Chris Jones took a deep breath, Li Wei ca over, without many words, just raised his right hand high, “Go ahead, it’s your turn.”
A casual gesture conveyed a sense of trust.
Maybe the Kansas Chiefs Defense is still not the league’s top; maybe they lack a top star to step up after Houston and Berry left.
However, they have a diligent and young team, helping each other, united, bravely facing all challenges, never backing down.
Pa!
Jones raised his right hand high, and with Li Wei completed a high-five handover.
Involuntarily, Jones straightened slightly, leading the defense onto the field with a firm and confident stride.
Unlike the offense, which underwent unexpected on-the-spot adjustnts, the defense followed a step-by-step approach. Their task was to face Rodgers, a troubleso opponent, whether or not Mahos was on the field, solving this problem remained critical for the Kansas Chiefs in this ga.
So, how to defend the Green Bay Packers?
Actually, it’s no secret throughout the league: Rodgers.
Although the Green Bay Packers still have the head coach calling the tactics, the coach’s tactics often place the entire burden on Rodgers’ shoulders.
One data point is quite straightforward, the passing and running ratio for the Green Bay Packers is “7:3,” or sotis even “8:2,” heavily skewed towards passing.
Note, this is data from this season, not from last season when McCarthy was head coach.
In other words, this is after Lafleur took over as head coach. During the end of McCarthy’s career as head coach, his reliance on Rodgers’ individual ability for offensive tactics was heavily criticized, ultimately leading to McCarthy’s dismissal, yet, with a brand new head coach, why hasn’t anything changed?
Hasn’t Lafleur learned from previous mistakes?
