Dominate the Super Bowl

"Hey, I'm in position first."

A simple sentence, just a few words, yet you can deeply feel Watt's excitement and exhilaration, repressed and repressed again, all buried within the text.

This day, Watt has truly been waiting for too long.

Before the game against the Buffalo Bills, Watt had talked at length with Li Wei, idly chatting to dispel the wild thoughts in his mind, because he desired victory so much that he lost his usual calm.

Before the game against the Baltimore Ravens, Watt also spoke at length with Li Wei, but this time it was slightly different. Watt had made up his mind to give it his all, even if he had to leave the field on his knees, he would persist to the end.

That determination, ready to be shattered, was fervent and pure.

Because Watt knows that age and injuries are playing an increasingly important role, he can no longer run and crash with all his might like he did at twenty, nor can he bounce back from injuries within just three to five days like he did at twenty; his body is making more and more protests.

He cannot be sure how long his peak will last, but he is certain it won't be many years.

He must seize every opportunity, as each chance could be the last.

"I just... I know, this idea is naive. Whether I'm successful or not, I've proven myself in the league and left my mark; but I still hope to lead the team to challenge the extreme once."

"American League finals. Super Bowl stage. Winning the championship. I want to see the scenery at the end of this journey."

"I'm unwilling, rookie, I'm unwilling, I still want to go further."

On the other end of the line, the usually invincible Watt showed some fragility and sadness. His professional career has always lacked a championship ring.

For the first time, Li Wei felt a little regretful, as in his previous life he knew nothing about football, so he had no way of knowing the trajectory of his friend:

When did he retire, did he suffer any serious injuries, and before retiring, did he manage to get the championship ring he wanted?

Li Wei said, "Then give it your all."

"JJ, you'd better pray we stop at the Wild Card game, otherwise you know if we meet in the League finals, I will do my utmost to strive for victory."

"I will not hold back."

Upright and straightforward, honest and open.

However, this sentence ignited Watt's fighting spirit, "I'm looking forward to your advancement."

"If you want to challenge the extreme, naturally you have to hit the strongest, first it's Baltimore, then it's you, we will prove ourselves through actions."

"Just watch, we will advance first, and then wait for you on the League finals stage."

"Hey, as for you guys, don't be scared off by any 'home curse,' even if the curse really exists, it should only take effect at the League finals."

Back and forth, neither backing down.

Laughter and banter, everything crumbles away.

Then Watt did it, they really upset and toppled the Baltimore Ravens; and they defeated Harbaugh and Jackson in a convincing game, with the Houston Texans becoming the biggest dark horse of this season.

Not only Watt, but also Watson couldn't wait for the press conference post-game. After shaking hands with Jackson, he couldn't wait to mock and taunt his defeated opponents, and into the live camera, his eyes bright, he declared his challenge.

"I'm coming."

Just a simple sentence, but Watson's eyes accurately conveyed the message.

Watt's message reached the Kansas City Chiefs' locker room, Li Wei directly showed it to everyone, giving a light shrug, "The Tennessee Titans won't be happy."

——Hahaha.

Roars of laughter.

Li Wei then added, "If we don't want a replay of the 2017 season, we might need to adjust our mindset a bit."

Locker room: ???

2017 season? Replay?

Didn't the Kansas City Chiefs reverse their fate throughout the 2017 season and win the Super Bowl?

A beat slower, they realized that Li Wei was mocking the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New England Patriots of that year. Both teams completely overlooked their opponents before the divisional game, looking ahead to a meetup in the American League finals, and ended up with top seeds one and two both getting upset, with the Kansas City Chiefs and the Jacksonville Jaguars meeting in the American League finals, turning the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New England Patriots into laughing stocks; and now, the roles have been reversed.

Li Wei was teasing them, warning that if they're not careful, they might become the ones getting upset.

Yet, in all the jokes and teasing, the shadow of the "home curse" seemed to disperse a bit.

Unconsciously, glances sneaked toward Li Wei, slowly beginning to notice——

Li Wei neither actively comforted them nor exaggerated their concerns, maintaining a completely calm demeanor, methodically preparing for the match.

Calm, composed, cool.

This attitude quietly settled the anxiety swirling through the locker room.

Over the past three seasons, how many storms have they weathered, how many challenges have they faced, yet they have never wavered, united and fighting shoulder to shoulder, to reach here.

Remember the Kansas City Chiefs' team spirit?

Failure, faced together; victory, strived for side by side. No matter the outcome, they fight to the end with no regrets, refusing to look back.

Slowly but surely, the restless and uneasy emotions settled down again.

Just one hour after the Houston Texans' upset victory over the Baltimore Ravens, the second American League divisional game ignited——

"Kansas City Chiefs VS Tennessee Titans."

Whether they cared or believed it or not, the entire league was shrouded by the shadow of a "home curse," a scenario not even seen in the 2015 season. The playoff's main theme became to overthrow superior rankings, rendering regular season records and rankings useless and pushing the NFL's suspense to new heights, once again proving that in the playoffs, anything is possible.

In the bustling crowd, amidst whispers of tension, all eyes turned to Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium, collectively stunned into shock and awe, as the unsettling and frantic emotions continued to boil and spread.

The Tennessee Titans tore through with madness, coming fully prepared and launching a comprehensive assault.

Incredibly, incredibly, at Arrowhead Stadium, they pressed down on the Kansas City Chiefs, a sudden storm pressed the Chiefs to the point of breathlessness.

The league hadn't seen the Kansas City Chiefs looking so embarrassed for a long time, especially this season under immense pressure, they've defied stereotypes countless times with their actual performance proving their excellence; yet they completely lost their way against the "mere" Tennessee Titans.

Unexpected, 100% unexpected——

Following the New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints, Baltimore Ravens, the Kansas City Chiefs also fell into the high-seed bewilderment, unfamiliar in their game performance.

Everything, like a crop circle, if not for an alien appearance, what better explanation could there be than the "home curse"?

"21:0".

By the end of the first quarter, the Tennessee Titans seemed to already declare the game could end early.
