Dominate the Super Bowl

Chapter 592: 591 Breakthrough from the Front Chapter 592: 591 Breakthrough from the Front Running backs also come in different styles and types.

There are bullish running backs and agile ones, power backs and speedsters, siege-based and tactical running backs, among others.

Li Wei has always been known to the League as an intelligent running back:

Not only does he patiently read the defense before the snap, his second-level defensive reading after the snap is equally meticulous and careful, far from the type who blindly crashes into walls.

Without a doubt, among the active running backs, Li Wei is one of the players who best combines intelligence with his abilities, which is the foundation of his success.

Indeed, in today’s first half, Li Wei utilized Bell’s running style to its fullest, handling it with ease and fully displaying his own abilities in second-level defensive reading and route selection.

On the surface, he seemed similar to Bell, but the actual effect was even more impressive.

However.

This time, Li Wei changed tactics—

Drastically different.

After the snap, there was no hesitation, no observation, nor adjustment; he just started stepping forward, accelerating into a full-force charge almost before one could blink, with emphasis on speed.

This wasn’t Li Wei.

If this were Jacksonville Jaguars running back Fournette, it would make sense; Fournette often doesn’t survey the field and simply runs the routes set by the coaches, bulldozing through defenses like a charging rhino.

But now?

Hayward’s assessment was clearly disrupted—

He lunged forward as hard as he could.

In Hayward’s view, it was about stealing time, using the moment Li Wei observed the defense to make a preemptive tackle before Li Wei could start moving.

But to his utter surprise, even though he was already racing against time, he was still a beat too slow.

Li Wei had preemptively evaded his tackle, ducking low and slipping through his arms with a bend of the knees.

His lower body surged forward and his upper body leaned back, resembling a scene from “The Matrix,” as he deftly and impressively dodged Hayward.

Hayward was completely stunned, still unable to grasp what had happened as he was overwhelmed by the shock and impact of easily being outmaneuvered by Li Wei, while shame and anger swiftly flooded his mind.

Meanwhile, Li Wei had no time to consider Hayward’s shattered pride; he was fully committed to stealing time, setting up a surprise attack—

Elevating his speed, elevating his pace.

At that moment, the front lines of both teams were in total chaos at the Chu River and Han border.

The Pittsburgh Steelers opted for a blitz, or more precisely, applied pressure, the entire defensive front tightening to pile pressure on the offensive line’s pocket, not just pressing Mahomes, but also Li Wei, Kelsey, Hill, among others, with overwhelming momentum preparing to counter the Kansas City Chiefs.

The pressure was immense, like a tidal wave.

If Li Wei had stuck to his usual style, he would have felt the bloody tempest within the pocket clearly at that moment; even if he had avoided a crash, he would then be caught in the tightening encirclement.

However, Li Wei did not.

The moment the ball was snapped, he moved forward, and within a few steps, he was already facing the barrel of the gun.

He sought survival in peril.

Even though he ran headlong into the barrel, he caught his opponents completely off-guard, acting first to gain the upper hand instead of the adversaries pulling the trigger.

Speed and momentum were crucial.

Thus.

After dodging Hayward, Li Wei saw two dark figures with one step forward.

One was Burnett, coming head-on.

He didn’t care about Li Wei’s tactics, style, or timing; right from the snap, he rushed forward to intercept.

The other was TJ, reactivating.

TJ’s attention was always on Mahomes and Li Wei, closely monitoring the development of the football, and even though his vision was obscured by Hayward for a moment, he quickly followed up, spreading his arms wide like a hawk swooping down on a chicken, trying to cover all possible routes.

Rarely seen, Li Wei didn’t slow down—

Right in front, Burnett blocked the path forward.@@novelbin@@

Burnett’s sole task was to guard Li Wei, so uninfluenced by other players, he positioned himself tactically; Li Wei’s full-speed charge was tantamount to throwing himself into the net, recklessly running into Burnett’s embrace.

Burnett was thrilled, was this like guarding a tree stump to catch a hare?

The rabbit collided on its own.

With no time to think, Li Wei and Burnett had already collided fiercely.

Uh.

Burnett grunted, a massive force hit his chest head-on, and before he could even feel the pain, his entire brain was engulfed, his eardrums roared, and his body just stiffened in place—

There was no stepping back, no movement.

Completely stiff, his internal organs and limbs all hit the pause button, standing there frozen like a statue.

Stillness.

Freeze-frame.

In his line of sight, he watched Li Wei continue to push forward, with the demeanor of a high-speed train, unstoppable and sweeping through with force.

Burnett could see the scenery in his view fast-forwarding, but his body still couldn’t react, the reds, blacks, and greens all blurred together, only catching a glimpse of a red tornado directly hitting a black wall, the swirling air wave rushing towards him, his knees could no longer bear it—

Bang!

“Li Wei VS Watt”.

A head-on confrontation.

Li Wei didn’t dodge.

After colliding with Burnett, he knew he was exhausted, had no time to change direction, nor the energy for another burst of speed.

So, he let inertia carry him, hurling his body towards TJ.

Full on, full-hearted collision.

TJ was unprepared, assuming Li Wei would try a sudden stop and change of direction to escape, so he kept his center of gravity light to keep up with Li Wei; however, he didn’t expect Li Wei to just collide head-on.

“Beast Mode”.

That was the only thought in TJ’s mind, memories from the training camp surging like a tide, but it was too late.

He had lost the tactical advantage, didn’t fully grasp the ground center, and kept retreating under the impact from Li Wei.

Damn!

TJ clenched his teeth, erupting with energy.

“This!”

“One contact, two contacts, three contacts!

Li Wei was not yet exhausted!”

“In the continuous forceful breaks, Li Wei shifted into pure confrontation mode.”

“Ha, God!”

“Seven yards!”

“Ten yards!”

“First down!”

“Twelve yards!”

“Incredible!

Li Wei and Watt engaged in a power duel, but surprisingly Watt didn’t have the advantage, continuously retreating under the impact of Li Wei’s pushes!”

“A whole five yards!

In a head-to-head contention, Li Wei pushed Watt a whole five yards, finally both sides were exhausted and done for.”

“Three head-on collisions!”

“Twelve yards on the ground push!”

“A pure power duel, total beast mode, facing a tough situation, Li Wei unexpectedly chose to break head-on, dominating in a powerful face-to-face clash for twelve yards, destroying the Pittsburgh Steelers’ triple steel curtain.”

“Unbelievable!

Incredible!”

“Undoubtedly, this reminds us of Marshawn Lynch’s Beast Mode, so what more surprises is Li Wei keeping for the new season!”

“Wow!”

“We all know the Kansas Chiefs Offense would certainly counterattack, but no one expected it to be in this manner, it’s a surprise.”

“So, is this the counterattack call of the defending champions?”
