Chapter 385 Hail Mary
Danger, extremely dangerous!
With wolves in front and tigers behind, Smith was surrounded in a narrow pocket. He was in danger every step of the way and had no room to breathe.

In just two steps of adjustment time, Fleiss had successfully broken free from the forward line and pounced towards Smith in two steps.

Smith’s lateral movement was like a sheep walking into a tiger’s mouth!

fighting!

This was the only thought in Smith’s mind, and he wanted to give it a try.

then.

Step forward and charge.

brake!

Seeing that Smith and Fries were about to collide, Smith braked suddenly to control his body and stopped in front of Fries.

Then, slightly shift the position.

Friels had been trying to capture Smith with all his might and accuracy, but the incident happened suddenly and he could no longer control his body.

He stepped forward, trying to brake, but ended up skidding and completely losing control.

Rubbing shoulders, misalignment.

Friels only had time to touch Smith with his arm before he was sent flying.

Smith held his breath, holding on to it tightly, refusing to relax. After being bumped by Fryers, his center of gravity shook and his body was in turmoil, but he always refused to compromise. He continued to persevere with only a spiritual force, and there was an unprecedented determination flashing in his eyes.

Turn around and scan the entire room.

Push off the ground and take a step forward.

He could do it, just like the first long pass of the second half.

Apply force. Turn your body. Swing your arms.

The whole body is like a taut bow and arrow, fully drawn, the force is fully transferred, and finally a strong throw is made.

Whoosh.

The football flew across the sky in a thrilling arc.

The next second, Smith was knocked to the ground by a high-speed train that was crossing the road, but he did not waver and kept his eyes on the football.

Fly, soar high and soar freely.

……

Levi, concentrate.

He stood at the back of the shotgun formation, his concentration high.

As the kick-off command comes, without hesitation, he starts to cut into the slot and rushes forward in a straight line along the slot.

He passed Friels in an instant, but without stopping, he tried his best to catch up with Kelsey who was also advancing vertically; in a blink of an eye, he had rushed five yards.

Linebacker Harrison followed Levi closely, not approaching him rashly, but keeping a certain distance and moving forward in a straight line side by side.

At this moment, just as his feet crossed the 35-yard line, Levi cut inside and rushed towards Harrison.

Harrison was startled and put on full alert.

Unexpectedly, Levi ignored Harrison and completed a cross run with Hill on the other side.

The two men continued to run along the diagonal line, fully demonstrating their speed advantage.

This?
Harrison hesitated for a moment, but the other linebacker, Van Noy, did not.

Cornerbacks and linebackers are responsible for man-to-man defense, while safeties are responsible for zone defense, so no matter what happens, they just need to keep a close eye on their opponents.

From all aspects, Kelce has an absolute size advantage against cornerback Gilmore; so Levi may play the role of bait to contain the force, but in the end Smith will still pass the ball to Kelce.

The current running route also proves this point——

The routes run by three wide receivers and a running back were dazzling and intertwined, but only Kelce was unmoved and sprinted vertically all the way.

So, even though Van Noy wished he was matched up against Levi, he did his job, stuck close to Hill, and refused to be fooled.

Harrison noticed that Van Noy was following Hill’s footsteps, and without hesitation he followed Levi out.

however.

Harrison had just started and crossed the 30-yard line, but before he could reach the 25-yard line, Levi came back and met him.

Harrison: ???

Not only Harrison, but Van Noy was also confused.

Levi and Hill once again completed a cross-position run, and the two ran a “Z”-shaped cross route in the central area, firmly grasping the initiative.

During the continuous sudden stops and turns, the center of gravity of Van Noy and Harrison was shaken to varying degrees, and their steps became slightly hesitant.

Harrison tried to stick close.

However, Levi saw his opportunity and wasn’t about to miss it.

Push off the ground, accelerate, and get rid of it.

One step, two steps, and it seemed like only three steps, Levi had already rushed forward along the diagonal path, quickly approaching the 20-yard line, and had a clear gap with Harrison. Harrison, bad!

Gritting his teeth, Harrison followed at full speed, but just after taking two steps, he saw Levi and Kelsey, who was still rushing forward on this side.

Damn it!

Harrison sensed something was wrong, but was still a step too slow.

Levi and Kelce completed a cross-position switch, and Kelce rushed directly towards Harrison; and Gilmore, who was guarding Kelce, also subconsciously followed.

Then–

Levi successfully shook off the opponent’s tail and rode away.

Push off the ground, exert force, and run wildly.

Levi threw away his burden, unleashed his full speed, and sprinted along the sideline.

Edgewalker, back at Gillette Stadium.

Huh!
The entire Gillette Stadium gasped. Although the parties involved were confused, the bystanders could see clearly. They immediately noticed the figure that turned into a stream of light.

Danger, danger, danger!

Although Gilmore also realized the crisis and immediately gave up Kelsey and chased after her, Harrison, who was left behind, was helplessly entangled with Kelsey; but Gilmore’s speed was obviously not as fast as Levi’s, and he watched the gap widen.

Levi ran faster and faster, faster and faster——

Fifteen yards.

Ten yards.

Five yards.

The end zone is within reach.

Not only the Zhong family, but another safety, McCarty, has also come over. They are waiting for the opportunity and are in a good position to seize the opportunity in advance.

This is the most dangerous and difficult part of Hail Mary.

The offense must take advantage of the situation.

So, who is Smith’s passing target?
Kelsey?

No, Levi.

“Fourth down, seven yards, nine seconds!”

“Kansas is in trouble, New England raids.”

“Smith is trying to get rid of it, Smith is trying to survive, and Smith still hasn’t given up!”

“Oh my god, Fryers missed the tackle and Smith regained the space to pass the ball.”

“Smith passes the ball, Smith aims for the end zone, thirty-six yard pass aims for the end zone, Hail Mary, we are witnessing Smith challenge Hail Mary.”

“The goal of the pass is——”

“Levi?”

“Levi got into an unmarked state, God, how did he do that?”

“Gillmor is trying to catch up, but Levi’s speed is unstoppable.”

“Levi, fifteen yards, ten yards! Five yards!”

“Levi gets in the end zone!”

“The Zhong family and McCarty joined forces to defend, Levi, Levi took the initiative to bump into the Zhong family.”

“Smith’s Hail Mary pass was aimed at the blind spot diagonally above the right side of the end zone. The pass distance was a little too far and the control was still not precise enough.”

“Oh my god, three people! Three people jumping at the same time!”

One versus two.

What should Levi do?
The first step is to stay calm.

The second step is to lock the position.

Use the positioning of one defensive player to block the interference of another defensive player.

Then, believe in yourself and take off.

Levi turned around and used his back to press against Zhong Jiashu, avoiding McCarty, and deliberately leaned all his body weight on Zhong Jiashu to suppress his jump. He kept his eyes fixed on the football, looking for the right time to jump accurately.

In front of him, he could see a pair of hands. Those should be McCotter who had jumped early and reached out to the football; but Levi was not in a hurry to jump.

After waiting for half a beat and holding off the Zhong family, he jumped again.

Although the Zhong family jumped up soon after, Levi was still one step ahead. When McCotter began to fall and the Zhong family was still rising——

Reach out and take it.

He caught it.
