Chapter 577: 576 A Premonition Chapter 577: 576 A Premonition “...Evading, breaking free, pass!
Mahomes relentlessly completes the pass.”
“It’s a rainbow pass, a long pass!”
“Twenty yards!”
“Forty yards!”
“Aiming for the end zone, a fifty-yard pass, Kansas City Chiefs Offense bursts forth without warning, and the Pittsburgh Steelers Defensive group clearly wasn’t expecting this, the target of Mahomes’ pass—”
“Li Wei!”
“Clashing, breaking free, overtaking, Li Wei’s footwork displays the style of a Wide Receiver, casually creating space amidst a leisurely stride, rookie Safety Edmunds is too green, too naive to block the spot.”
“Li Wei, catches the ball.”
“So easy, so effortless, Li Wei...
Ha ha, even completes the last two steps into the end zone with his back turned, in a backward fashion, without any trouble scoring the touchdown.”
“Yes, touchdown.”
“Kansas City Chiefs’ first touchdown of the 2018 season, just like last season, still comes from number twenty-three, Li Wei, this scene feels all too familiar.”
“But!”
“We should discuss the tactics and execution of the Kansas City Chiefs’ first offensive drive.”
Short pass.
Run.
Long pass.
In the opening offensive drive of the Kansas City Chiefs, the team showcased a completely different look, employing three offensive strategies on three gears; facing immense pressure from the rush-pass offense, the home team’s fluency and burst in their attack completely dominated, claiming a touchdown in just under two minutes.
The Offensive group is still that familiar unit, the Kansas City Chiefs concentrated on the Defense during the off-season, basically maintaining the offense as before, with the only change being the starting quarterback, but they underwent a transformation that made them almost unrecognizable, as if they had reborn overnight.
...
The multiple offensive tactics combined with dazzling running routes, against one of the top defensive powerhouses in the league, displayed an ease and confidence, firm and decisive, even if the Steelers’ defensive strategy was tough and steadfast, the team still dominated the rhythm in its own right.”
Surprise!
Absolute excitement!
Arrowhead Stadium’s immediate reaction was the most genuine and direct.
Suddenly, Felix raised his hands high signaling a touchdown, beaming with excitement, gesticulating wildly and cheering heartily towards the field.
“Touchdown, touchdown!”
Then he turned to look at his mother, then to the surrounding faces celebrating with clenched fists, happiness and joy twinkling on every face.
And that’s not all.
“Aaron, what do you think?”
In Los Angeles, Aaron Donald, the last season’s League MVP for defense, was lifting weights, sitting on a machine working on his chest muscles, while keeping an eye on the TV screen.
The clanging of weights was out of place in the poolside villa party, but the other players were used to such scenes.
Donald didn’t immediately reply, finishing his set before exhaling deeply.
“As of now, it’s hard to see the effect of their training with JJ Watt.
We’ll need to keep watching.
I’m looking forward to the upcoming games.”
In Donald’s eyes were both number twenty-three and number fifteen, his teddy bear-like honest and adorable face breaking into a naive grin:
Heh heh.
Those around him shuddered, with goosebumps rising amid a wave of frenzied screams.
“0:7”.
The home team took the lead.
Although it was just one touchdown, the Pittsburgh Steelers Defensive group being completely suppressed still slightly stifled the atmosphere of the visiting team.
The pressure immediately shifted to the visiting team’s Offensive group.
The once-impregnable trio, now without Bell, lost its solidity, and neither Roethlisberger nor Brown uttered a word to motivate their teammates.
Instead, a figure beside them was itching to jump into action like a flea—
Juju Smith Schuster.
Every time he faced off against Li Wei, Juju got excited.
Heh, so what if Li Wei performs well?
Up next it’s his turn, Juju’s, and he will tear down the Kansas City Chiefs Defense with an even more spectacular performance, answering touchdown with touchdown, then becoming a superhero.
Juju puffed up his chest slightly, full of confidence.
Last season, the Kansas City Chiefs Defense had its ups and downs, relying on strong key moments to avoid being a drag.
After an offseason of repairs, would they withstand the test this season?
The first test was the Pittsburgh Steelers without running back Bell.
To be precise, lacking Bell’s powerful ground support, the Steelers’ offense indeed faced a stern challenge, especially since Tomlin valued the ground game; it was because of this that Bell’s relationship with the team completely shattered, something the League hadn’t anticipated—everyone thought Tomlin would fight for Bell.
But this team still had Roethlisberger, Brown, and Tomlin; no one could take them lightly.
Juju: Hey, don’t forget about me!
