Dominate the Super Bowl-Chapter 895 - 894 garbage time
Chapter 895: 894 garbage time
After endless struggles, the Los Angeles Rams finally managed to find a glimmer of hope, giving everything they had to secure a field goal. The entire team was elated, as though victory was within reach.
And then, with effortless ease, the Kansas City Chiefs strolled forward, confidently executing their balanced attack strategy, seamlessly scoring a passing touchdown to further enlarge their lead.
Splash.
A bucket of cold water was poured over the Rams’ hard-won spark of fighting spirit, extinguishing their flame and leaving behind only faint, murky embers.
One glance exchanged, then another, until everyone silently avoided eye contact.
This time, Anderson had no answers either.
All eyes discreetly shifted toward Goff, standing slim and forlorn at the sideline. His broad, straight shoulders sagged, his vacant eyes staring at the field, silently radiating melancholy and vulnerability.
McVay, who was supposed to have the answers, instead stood quietly. He neither spoke with Goff nor conferred with his coaching staff. His gaze lingered on the special teams on the field, briefly clouded with hesitation before settling back into calm determination.

“Come on! Keep pushing, one down at a time. It’s not over yet!”
McVay called out stiffly, his fist clenched as he desperately tried to rally the team with forced optimism. Even so, he couldn’t bring himself to meet the eyes of his staff and players.
The words of encouragement ultimately fell flat.
When the Rams’ offensive group returned to the field, despite Goff’s attempts to find strength, Anderson’s efforts to steady the ship, and McVay bringing on Gurley for an aggressive gamble on a long third down,
it all amounted to nothing.
Three and out.
After halftime, the Rams mounted two brief flashes of offensive revival, hinting at potential success and evoking glimpses of the “Cosmic Rams” glory. On two occasions, they crossed midfield, even securing a field goal the second time.
Ultimately, it was just a fleeting glimmer of life, dying out quickly without brilliance or flare, fading once more into obscurity.
McVay grew increasingly anxious, pacing the sideline tirelessly, shouting commands and encouragement, clapping incessantly to motivate his players and staff. Yet, his efforts continued to meet defeat after defeat—
and plunged into despair.
The Rams etched a shameful record: the most consecutive three-and-outs on the Super Bowl stage, eight in total, failing to make any progress before being forced off the field.
In other words, the offense barely stepped onto the field before being sent right back, as if stuck on a carousel.
While the Rams were mired in their struggles, the Chiefs firmly controlled the game. They did not merely rely on ground play to run out the clock, but instead maintained a balanced pass-and-run strategy, applying constant pressure that prevented the Rams’ defensive group from finding a way to turn the tide.
Though the Chiefs experienced some three-and-outs themselves in the back-and-forth, they stubbornly pushed past midfield multiple times, racking up two additional field goals to solidify their commanding position in the game.
Gradually, time slipped away, ushering the game toward its inevitable conclusion—
the outcome was clear.
“…For fifteen years since 2004, no team in the league has successfully defended their Super Bowl title, a testament to the unique allure of the NFL.”
“Fierce competition, tightly contested battles, the belief that anyone has a chance. Winning last season doesn’t guarantee continued domination; it might instead mark the beginning of new challenges, making successive Super Bowl victories an almost unattainable feat.”
“This season is no exception.”
“Even up until the Super Bowl, the landscape remained unclear. Uncertainty lingered, as the skill gap among the top teams was razor-thin. Both conference finals ended in overtime—a testament to the tension. Everything pointed toward this Super Bowl being a grand showdown where the victor might only emerge in its final moments.”
“But the Kansas City Chiefs had a different message to deliver.”
“The defending champions once again entered ‘Playoff Chief’ mode, displaying resilience and strength at crucial junctures, dominating the Rams on both sides of the ball. Although the Chiefs narrowly lost to the Rams during the regular Super Bowl tentpole game, tonight’s matchup unfolded as an unrelenting personal showcase for Kansas City.”
“Defending the title was never in doubt.”
“What matters is how they did it—a commanding defense of the title, making what had stumped the league for the past fifteen years seem startlingly easy.”
“Viewers turning on their TVs at this moment might be shocked at the scoreline, mistaking this for a lopsided blowout.”
“That’s not exactly the case.”
“Donald and the Rams’ defensive group gave Mahomes and Li Wei headaches for the better part of the game. In the end, it was Li Wei, shining in the battle of titans, who seized control of the critical turning points to break the game open.”
“The current score stands at ’31:3.’ With the result now all but certain, this margin does not rank among the top five in Super Bowl history, sitting only at sixth.”
“The most commanding Super Bowl victory remains the San Francisco 49ers’ 55:10 demolition of the Denver Broncos in 1990—a scoreline that still stuns even today.”
“Post-millennium standings tell a similar story, with Seattle Seahawks achieving a more dominant win by defeating the Denver Broncos 43:8 in 2014—the pinnacle of the Bombing Corps’ era.”
“In comparison, this game’s final score isn’t overly exaggerated.”
“Yet, it’s important to note that this was the Chiefs’ title defense, making it far more challenging than any ordinary matchup.”
“Last season, they ascended as unexpected dark horses to lift the trophy, shocking countless skeptics—a delightful surprise.”
“This season, under the spotlight, the defending champions braved a turbulent regular season, suffering losses to the New England Patriots, Rams, and Chargers, leading many to question their status as the American League’s top seed.”
“But the Chiefs responded with actions rather than words—proving that no one could beat them twice in one season. A thrilling overtime victory over the Patriots in the AL Conference Championship, followed by their Super Bowl domination of the Rams, sealed their redemption and pending title defense.”
“An unbelievable journey and undoubtedly an extraordinary tale.”
“With this game, the Chiefs have likely become the league’s newest public enemy, with every team hungry to topple their reign. The question remains: How will the Chiefs respond? The upcoming 2019 season promises intrigue.”
As the game entered the fourth quarter and early garbage time, even Nantz and Romo struggled to salvage the Rams’ dignity, though Nantz used his breadth of knowledge to maintain viewer interest—
as difficult as that was.
No one had anticipated that the Super Bowl would… turn out like this?
“Oh, Justin Houston is back on the field. Eric Berry steps up to welcome him. The Chiefs defense’s two leaders are now poised to share in the team’s moment of glory.”
Slow, yet resolute.
Houston returned to the field, gazing at the sea of red stretching across the stadium, then back at his team’s relentless intensity on the field, every move deliberate and focused.
At this instant, Houston realized the team had found its next generation of leaders, ensuring their legacy would continue unbroken.
