Chapter 362 361 Probability Event
By now, the first round of the playoffs and wild card games had all ended.
The New Orleans Saints won, the Jacksonville Jaguars won, along with the Kansas City Chiefs, who had won the day before. All the high-ranking seeds claimed victory.
The only exception was the Los Angeles Rams.
Moreover,
Unlike the other close games, the match between the Los Angeles Rams and the Atlanta Falcons was the only one-sided game without suspense, with the Rams getting no opportunity and suffering a crushing defeat.
In light of this situation, Goodell expressed frustration.
Despite Goodell's hope to create a brand-new face for the league and generate new destiny matchups, some people failed to seize the opportunity. He was powerless and could only say that making superstars also requires luck.
Goff: "Are you talking about me? Oh, no, sorry, my mistake."
The real protagonist, Donald, said, "We'll see next season."
Regardless, fifteen minutes after the wild card game ended with the New Orleans Saints defeating the Carolina Panthers, the NFL announced the schedule for the second round of wild card games.
January 13th.
Afternoon, "Philadelphia Eagles VS Atlanta Falcons".
Evening, "New England Patriots VS Kansas City Chiefs".
January 14th.
Afternoon, "Pittsburgh Steelers VS Jacksonville Jaguars".
Evening, "Minnesota Vikings VS New Orleans Saints".
Here it comes, finally—
"Li Wei VS Brady".
Although Li Wei had hoped to face the Pittsburgh Steelers again for a decisive showdown, the Jacksonville Jaguars had other ideas, disrupting the plan; thus, a fan-favorite scene in the entire league was about to unfold.
A meeting of the league's top traffic generators and faces, easily sparking heated discussions.
"After Mariota's miraculous touchdown in the second half, the Kansas City Chiefs completely lost their formation, exposing weaknesses in both offense and defense. If it hadn't been for Derrick Henry's fumble in the last two minutes that led to a critical error, shaking the confidence of the Tennessee Titans, the Kansas City Chiefs might have been eliminated."
"This shackled them from the first game of the regular season, whether they lost or won, they just didn't seem stable and it continued until now." Continue your saga on My Virtual Library Empire
"Such a shortcoming is further magnified in the playoffs' single-elimination format and will become a shackle preventing the Kansas City Chiefs from making a breakthrough."
"Perhaps, next season, the Kansas City Chiefs might transform into a team contending for the Super Bowl Champions, but not this year."
On the surface, Bart had made significant progress, becoming more objective and rational, no longer stubbornly negative, finally evolving.
But fundamentally, Bart still did not believe in the Kansas City Chiefs, or more precisely, he never believed that a running back could be the key to a team's transformation; he was even less convinced that a rookie running back could be the key to changing the league's dynamics.
It was that simple.
"Moreover, in the divisional game, they will face the New England Patriots."
"More precisely, they are facing Belichick and Brady."
"Without a doubt, Belichick and Brady have been the best postseason duo over the past fifteen years. The postseason is completely different from the regular season in terms of atmosphere, pressure, pace, and state—it's a whole different ballgame."
"No matter how the regular season goes, Belichick and Brady always bring their best form in the playoffs, making the New England Patriots the most difficult super team to defeat in the playoffs right now."
"Moreover, this season the New England Patriots have shown the dominance of a defending champion."
"Throughout the season, the New England Patriots lost only three games, two of which were in September. In the three months that followed, they only lost one game."
"Their victories included teams like the New Orleans Saints, Atlanta Falcons, Buffalo Bills, and Pittsburgh Steelers, four playoff teams. Except for a three-point narrow victory against the Steelers, all other matches were won by at least two possessions."
"As the number one seed in the American League, the New England Patriots are absolutely ready to defend their title, and without a doubt, they are the benchmark that all teams need to defeat."
Not believing in the Kansas City Chiefs is one thing, and regarding this point, there might be many people who disagree with Bart, like Lawson.
But believing in the New England Patriots is another matter; the defending champions indeed performed brilliantly this season, with their three losses occurring in the first month, which only proved that they just needed some time to warm up. Once they got going, no one could stop them.
Lawson agreed with this too.
Undoubtedly, the New England Patriots were indeed the more favored side.
Bart thought, even from a probability standpoint, he should be right this time, shouldn't he? It couldn't be that he was at odds with the Kansas City Chiefs throughout the whole season, could it?
