"Everyone knows that Andy Reid is a typical passing ga coach, and his plays often revolve around passing offense, with the ground ga serving as a support to establish an advantage for the passing offense,"
"Even during the Jamaal Charles era, this strategy never changed."
"But."
"Because of the outstanding ground ga performance in the last match, Reid made the rare decision to shift the strategy towards the ground ga, attempting to avoid the excellent pass defense of the Philadelphia Eagles, but he ran into Pederson's sniping."
"Throughout the first half, the Kansas Chiefs Offense chose the ground attack nineteen tis, but the efficiency wasn't high, advancing only seventy-three yards in total."
"This is the key point."
Sprawling and spitting, Bart finally found his opportunity to perform.
On the other side, Lawson wanted to speak up but stopped hesitantly: Sir, did your math teacher teach PE?
Eighteen passes, nineteen runs—in a football ga, this is called a balanced pass-run offense, which is exactly what head coaches strive for.
Moreover, nineteen running plays for seventy-three yards average 3.84 yards per carry, which indeed is average but far from being considered poor.
In fact, what really went poorly for the Kansas Chiefs in the first half were the finer details.
A miss on a fifty-one-yard field goal by the Special Duty Group, a fumble by running back Hunter leading to a turnover—that's what caused the Kansas Chiefs' balanced offense to dominate the ga but failed to widen the score gap.
However, coming from Bart's mouth, did it transpose to the running backs' full responsibility?
This pacing...
But, after a brief hesitation, Lawson ultimately didn't interrupt Bart.
Not because he couldn't, but because the ground defense of the Philadelphia Eagles indeed did perform well, and Li Wei and Hunter's ground advances were just adequate.
Here, one concept needs to be clarified:
The Bombing Corps.
From the 2012 to the 2015 season, the Defensive group of the Seattle Seahawks was known as the "Bombing Corps," instilling fear into their opponents.
In the 2013 season Super Bowl showdown, that was the peak battle for the Bombing Corps, facing off against the Denver Broncos Offense led by the regular season MVP, Manning.
That season, Manning's Wuju rchant offense was at its peak, powerfully breaking a series of offensive historical records and acclaid as the best Offensive group in history; however, the Bombing Corps suppressed Manning all ga, leaving the Denver Broncos Offense completely disoriented, and ultimately clinching the title with a "43:8" scoreline.
The distinctive trait of the Bombing Corps was their big Cornerbacks and powerful Safeties.
They had top capabilities in both zone defense and man coverage, and even if the Offensive group mismatched a running back or a Tight End against a Cornerback, the Cornerback wouldn't fall behind, dominating the short pass area with absolute fierceness; anwhile, the Safety was the core key, covering short, dium, and long passes with their range of motion, with enough mobility for the Safety to roam based on their judgnt and close any gaps with their skills.
In short, the Bombing Corps emphasized individual abilities as well as team cooperation.
They were a rare breed.
Even the Seattle Seahawks themselves couldn't replicate the glory of the Bombing Corps afterward, and while other teams attempted to imitate this model, it proved too difficult in the end.
Of course, the Philadelphia Eagles right now didn't quite cut it either.
But at least in the first half, Pederson's Philadelphia Eagles tactically displayed so of the Bombing Corps's style, suppressing the Kansas Chiefs.
So, even though Bart's analysis was biased, it wasn't entirely nonsensical.
In Lawson's view, Reid pursued a balanced pass-run offense because he felt pressure from the Philadelphia Eagles across the board—he needed to spread out the pressure; but so far, Reid lacked a clear approach and temporarily hadn't found an effective tactic, resulting in a sowhat chaotic offense in the first half.
Lawson and Bart were different; he was truly objective and unbiased. He was optimistic about Li Wei, but that didn't an he would mindlessly praise him—that would be too foolish."
So, Lawson let Bart continue to freelance.
Bart was animated and non-stop, unable to contain himself.
"In the first half, the Philadelphia Eagles' defensive line put out a playoff-level performance, with Defensive End Brandon Graham, this year's first-round fourteenth pick Defensive End Derek Barnett, and Defensive Tackle Fletcher Cox all excelling."
"Focused. Tough. Aggressive."
"Clearly, the Philadelphia Eagles had studied the ga footage of the Kansas City Chiefs and the New England Patriots carefully; they knew the Chiefs running backs needed space to accelerate, and tended to break through more on the flanks than up the middle."
"So, the Philadelphia Eagles made two adjustnts,"
"First, they gave up blitzing the quarterback, allowing Smith more ti to pass, but the linen moved up, using their mobility to cover the short pass area."
"Second, they used the defensive line to mark the running backs, tackling them at the scrimmage line to cut off the Kansas City Chiefs' ground ga early on."
"Third, just like the Bombing Corps, they utilized cornerbacks to help defend against running backs and tight ends, with Rasul Douglas and Jalen Mills both around 200 pounds (91 kilograms), and about 6 feet (183 centiters) tall—excellent large-sized cornerbacks."
"Pederson's chain of tactics at the front line, reliant on the players' outstanding performances, was fully brought into play, preventing the Kansas Chiefs Offense from bursting forth, with the running back group nearly invisible in the first half."
"Without sufficient ground support, Smith struggled on his own. Just one ga later, the Kansas City Chiefs Offense was reduced to its original form." Your journey continues with empire
Enduring and enduring so more, Bart had used all his strength and still couldn't control himself.
"I always said—"
"Li Wei's tal has yet to be tested over ti."
The words slipped out, and Bart couldn't help but let a slight smile creep up the corners of his mouth.
"As of now in this ga, Li Wei is completely lost in the Philadelphia Eagles' iron at grinder, with no performance worth ntioning, back to diocrity."
"We should be nurturing to rookies, we should give them ti to grow..."
Yadda yadda yadda.
That whole pained and earnest deanor, as if he truly had Li Wei's best interests at heart, a concern for Li Wei that was as clear as day and month, was nearly convincing.
If it weren't for the smile creeping up, the slight shaking of his head, it might have been sowhat persuasive, but with his current deanor, the schadenfreude was hardly concealable, just short of pairing it with a beer and a plate of cheese sticks to celebrate—
What happened to giving rookies a little room to grow?
Finally!
Bart had finished speaking. If at this mont viewers had just turned on their TVs and heard this comntary, they would've thought the Kansas City Chiefs were losing by a large margin, but upon seeing the actual score, they'd beco utterly perplexed—
Wait, isn't it the Kansas City Chiefs who are ahead in the score?
Even if it's only by three points, it's still a lead! Why is the atmosphere so somber, as if the Kansas City Chiefs are trailing by three touchdowns?
The whole studio felt like a funeral parlor, leaving one at a loss for words.
Maybe that's not entirely fair to say, as at least Bart seed in high spirits, coming off like that distant relative at a wake who starts ranting after a couple of shots of whisky, whom nobody has ever t or even knows the na of, but begins to grandly reminisce after a few drinks.
Oblivious to the fact that he's playing the role of the clown.
But Bart doesn't care—
As long as he's having a good ti, that's all that matters.
