Any sensible person would know better than to make such a foolish error.
Yet, reality is not always so forgiving; one fatal mistake can make one hesitate, fearing a repeat of the same disaster, often losing the courage to break through.
It’s only when you break that you can build.
Only by facing one’s weaknesses and bravely facing potential dangers, can one accumulate experience and evolve through repeated mistakes.
No one is perfect, and no one is free from errors, especially in competitive sports.
Even the most elite, greatest, legendary players are still human; they can too make errors and mistakes.
...
Thus, fantasizing that you’ll never make a mistake is foolish.
Errors, blunders, failures—they’re all terrible but not fearsome.
Don’t be afraid of making mistakes again if you want to make true progress.
That takes courage and resolution.
Undoubtedly, Mahomes was trying—
And once more, he faced an interception.
But Li Wei wasn’t worried, on the contrary, Mahomes had just been intercepted due to his recklessness in the last game and even fell into self-doubt; yet, at the critical moment of this game, Mahomes did not hesitate to take a risk.
That is the mark of a hero.
Li Wei gave Mahomes a thumbs up, sending encouragement to his good friend.
Mahomes couldn’t help but laugh and cry—
Interception?
Thumbs up?
Are you sure?
A second ago, Mahomes was fretting over causing another interception.
Quarterbacks and soccer goalkeepers are somewhat similar.
A goalkeeper might make three to five spectacular saves in a game, winning applause, but just one mistake could make them the villain who loses the game; the quarterback is the same, no amount of touchdowns can cover the negative impact of an interception, easily erasing the efforts of the entire game.
Moreover, this was the second consecutive game where he threw an interception.
At the beginning of the season, Mahomes was creating miracles, not only powerfully breaking the record for the most touchdown passes in the first three starts of a quarterback’s career, but also making eleven consecutive touchdown passes without an interception, stunning the entire league with his performance.
Together with the still dominant and excellent Li Wei, the “Kansas City Twins” dazzled in the new season, boldly kicking off the new season.
Lewis: Haha, you all thought the Cincinnati Bengals were falling apart in the first half, right?
It was all a smokescreen from me, a grand strategy aimed at making a spectacular impact in history, playing with heartbeats, something you ordinary people could never understand.
“...
Interception!”
A thunderous boom, like a rumble of thunder.
Suddenly, Lewis was jerked awkwardly back to reality from his daydream, his heart racing uncontrollably, trying to regain focus amid the chaos and turmoil, confirming the scene before him.
What had he just heard?
“God, an interception!”
Arrowhead Stadium erupted with energy, shaking the entire world with its might.
Lewis’s heart plummeted in free fall, finally settling on a target in the midst of confusion, confirming reality.
—Interception.
This play, Dalton couldn’t be blamed.
Cincinnati Bengals Wide Receiver Boyd was too anxious.
He noticed Kansas City Chiefs Cornerback Fowler closing in fast.
He readied himself to catch and dart off quickly, breaking through Fowler’s defense to gain significant yardage.
Clearly, Boyd, like Lewis, was excessively excited and eager, desperate to capitalize on this interception.
However, in his urgency, he turned before securing the football, his brain reacting a step ahead of his body, resulting in him not gripping the football tightly.
Fowler seized the chance, gently poking from beneath, and the football broke free from Boyd’s grip, landing securely in Fowler’s hands.
Boyd: shocked.
Lewis: stunned.
Everything happened so suddenly, no one saw it coming.
Not even Fowler himself.
Fowler: That’s it?
He had barely exerted any effort; it was just an instinctive stealing of the peach, and then the ownership of the football changed hands.
Without even turning around, just slightly sidestepping thirty degrees, he completed the turn, and the Cincinnati Bengals’ side of the field opened up before him.
With a push of his feet, Fowler didn’t hesitate to launch a counterattack, quickly outdistancing Boyd and sprinting past before the Cincinnati Bengals Offensive group could react.
Lewis: Stop him!
