Chapter 1289: Chapter 1288: Another Year
The 2019 NFL regular season concluded after seventeen weeks of gas, with every ultimate suspense finally revealed, just as tense and exciting as in previous years.
First and foremost, a surprise that wasn’t really a surprise.
Kansas City Chiefs, a full victory season.
As two-ti defending champions, the Kansas City Chiefs were undoubtedly the focus of the entire league, and as expected, they faced a stormy off-season, with the entire defensive group revamped, controversies surrounding Li Wei both on and off the field, and being the target for all other teams.
Then, losing all four preseason gas, everything seed entirely expected.
Unexpectedly, after the season opener, the Kansas City Chiefs transford completely, forging ahead triumphantly, sweeping away all opposition unstoppably. They not only overturned doubts but also led a tactical revolution at full speed, pulling far ahead as the team on the pinnacle.
Moreover, the undefeated aura continued gloriously and majestically to the very end.
The whole league witnessed history!
Doubt, provocation, attack, encirclent, none of these could stop the Kansas City Chiefs, even though the season was fraught with twists, challenges, and difficulties. Li Wei once again defended his status as the League’s First Man with decisive actions, breaking through one crisis after another and ushering in a new era.
Now, all negative voices have fallen silent, and the reality before us is particularly severe; this is no longer sothing that can be stubbornly clung to with re hard talk—
Who can defeat the Kansas City Chiefs?
Of course, history has proven ti and again that in the NFL, competition is extraordinarily fierce and close, and a full victory season may be more harmful than beneficial to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Staying undefeated ans being easily ambushed in the playoffs.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be only the Miami Dolphins in history achieving a full victory season culminating in winning the Super Bowl, and that was way back in the 1972 season when the regular season consisted of only fourteen gas; six years later, it increased to sixteen gas.
Do not underestimate just two additional gas, as in the NFL, where the intensity and competition are so fierce, the toll of even one more ga cannot be quantified.
In other words, since the 1978 regular-season reform, no team has been able to stay undefeated throughout both the regular season and playoffs to claim the championship.
An undefeated season is a good thing, but it is also a hidden danger.
Who knows, perhaps the Kansas City Chiefs, like the 2011 Green Bay Packers, will finish the regular season 15-1 and then lose sensationally to the New York Giants in their first playoff ga.
The 2007 New York Giants that ambushed the undefeated New England Patriots season, the 2011 season giants that ambushed the 15-1 Green Bay Packers, each of these has been the New York Giants.
The question is, who can be this year’s ‘New York Giants’?
Or will they witness a brand-new history instead, one that belongs to the Kansas City Chiefs but also turns the entire NFL on its head?
On one hand, aiming for an unprecedented three consecutive Super Bowl championships; on the other hand, aiming to finish the season undefeated for a historic top finish, the bustling focus is all on the Kansas City Chiefs, each step closer to miracle and glory, fueling the league into complete fervor.
No exceptions.
So, could 2019 beco a year recorded in history?
The clamor and heat have propelled the Kansas City Chiefs to the pinnacle.
This is a scenario that even the most die-hard, audacious, and fervent Kansas City Chiefs fan couldn’t dare to dream of before the season opener.
Precisely because of this, this season’s NFL attention has reached an all-ti high—
Focusing on the Kansas City Chiefs is one part, focusing on the other teams is another.
After all, faced with the scenario where Kansas City Chiefs might overturn league history entirely, every playoff ga outco could potentially influence the matchup situation. In such circumstances, who can advance to the playoffs, who might stop the Kansas City Chiefs, who might beco this year’s ‘New York Giants’, are all hot topics, their importance obvious, maintaining a consistently high level of discussion interest.
Unprecedentedly, NFL’s attention and level of discussion have sohow set a new record high.
Originally, in the North Arican continent, the NFL is already the leader among the four major sports leagues, possessing a dominating market position that cannot be shaken; yet this season, it rose even further, incomprehensibly so.
Not only on the North Arican continent, but overseas market’s discussion interest also escalated broadly.
All these burst out like a sumr storm.
So, who exactly can advance to the playoffs and challenge the Kansas City Chiefs this year? More specifically, which teams will influence this year’s playoff direction?
In the Arican League, the setup is sowhat clearer, not much different from previous years.
The Kansas City Chiefs with 16 wins topped the AFC West, the Baltimore Ravens with 14 wins and 2 losses topped the AFC North, and the New England Patriots with 12 wins and 4 losses topped the AFC East.
All three teams faced few challenges, advancing to the playoffs easily, and unsurprisingly, secured the top three AFC seed spots, their lead evident, on a completely different level, with nothing worth discussing.
And all are familiar faces.
After Big Manning’s retirent, Li Wei seamlessly transitioned, taking over a spot among the AFC’s Big Three, solidifying the leadership position alongside Brady, while the third spot was contested alternately by the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens—archrivals within the AFC North—finally forming a new setup.
The hoped-for AFC turmoil did not last long before restoring calm.
Of course, things are not entirely like that.
This season, Luck’s retirent completely disrupted the Indianapolis Colts’ plans, plunging the AFC South into unprecedented chaos.
The Indianapolis Colts still remained competitive, while the other three division teams—the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Houston Texans, and the Tennessee Titans—are no pushovers, making the division’s internal competition intensely fierce.
Continuing all the way to the final week of the regular season—
“Houston Texans vs. Tennessee Titans.”
“Indianapolis Colts vs. Jacksonville Jaguars.”
The results of these two gas opened up nurous possibilities, not only influencing the top spot in the AFC South but also impacting the outco of the Arican League wildcard spots.
The Oakland Raiders, Tennessee Titans, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Indianapolis Colts had similar records and competed for the last Arican League wildcard spot, the sixth seed. The outco of one ga could lead to many possible scenarios, as the professionals’ predictions and analyses reached a brain-burning intensity, with the final outco potentially being completely different.
“Denver Broncos vs. Oakland Raiders.”
“Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens.”
A divisional battle in the AFC West and a divisional battle in the AFC North could similarly change the AFC playoff picture, even if it’s just a wildcard ga, it could turn out completely different.
For instance, the Pittsburgh Steelers; if they can make it to the playoffs, the combination of Tomlinson and Roethlisberger should not be underestimated.
Maybe they are the black swan to disrupt the AFC’s setup?
In so respects, these four gas are all worth watching.
As expected—
Being true to the NFL, the last match of the regular season nail-biting contests never disappoint, and the 2019 season continued this excellent tradition.
