American winner takes all

Chapter 100 Monster-level super physical strength (14)

Ohio State University, inside the football locker room after dark.

Adam Newman was sitting there with no one around him. The other team members had already finished training and left at this time. Only Adam Newman chose to practice extra.

After entering college, Adam could immediately feel the gap in strength.

He is now the backup quarterback at Ohio State and is still a long way from being in the starting lineup!
And all Adam can do now is to work quietly and strive to catch up with others.

Of course, I will also quietly pay attention to the movements of Ethan O'Connor.

Adam looked up at this time and could see that FOX Sports Channel 1 was broadcasting a live broadcast of the game between Ethan O'Connor and Highland High School.

At the same time, in a bar outside the University of California, Berkeley, Pat Barnes, who was watching the TV festival, cheered.

"Have you seen this young man? He is the strongest high school student in California." Pat hugged a girl and said to two football players opposite him who had just met each other.

"He will definitely win this game, bartender, I asked you to turn up your voice, you are deaf..." Pat's bragging about Ethan was mixed with complaints.

Manning's home in New Orleans.

Ozzie Manning is sitting on the sofa with his youngest son Eli Manning. Eli's two older brothers have gone to college, and he is the only one accompanying his father at this moment.

The father and son didn't look like they were simply watching the game. They even set up a camera and took out their notebooks, preparing to conduct a thorough study of Ethan O'Connor in the next game.

San Francisco, San Mateo.

"I said, I don't want to play rugby anymore..."

Tom Brady flipped through the TV channels boredly, his ears filled with his mother's nagging.

"But the team needs people, at least as substitutes?" came the mother's voice from the kitchen.

At this time, Brady happened to turn to the fox channel.

"Mom, you should really come over and take a look at him!" Brady threw the remote control away, and it was this young man on the TV that made him think about giving up football.He's also accomplished in baseball, and coaches say he'll be a great catcher.

Evasion is shameful, but useful.

"The competition has officially begun. It has been two months since the last time I saw Ethan O'Connor. I don't know if Ethan O'Connor's strength has improved in these two months, and how much it has improved!" In the Fox Sports game studio, Matt Millen said with anticipation. Although he could not be an on-site analyst this time, he still readily accepted the invitation to the studio...

·
With thousands of spectators cheering, the wild boar passed the ball from his hip, and Ethan caught the ball while pulling back.

At the same time, four people, including running back Munster, fullback Cooper, and wide receivers Flea and Matic, ran four new routes at the same time. All four routes were tailor-made for several people by Ethan.

Munster was stopped by the linebacker, or rather, he stopped the linebacker.

Fullback Cooper also blocked next to Ethan, like a loyal guard, ensuring that Ethan's pass would not be interfered with.

This is the tactic that the Normans prepared before the game. They mainly focus on high-altitude balls and attack deep areas. The tight-end running backs and full-backs are more involved in defense.

Taking inspiration from Tom Brady, Eason will be more of a pocket quarterback in this game, which is the style Thomas and the entire coaching staff selected for Eason after lengthy video analysis.

As a true all-around quarterback, Ethan also gives Thomas a great tactical advantage.

Looking at the two wide receivers again, there is no obvious gap between them and the corners.

Ethan could pass the ball, but whether the outside receiver could catch it became a problem... And when he quickly passed the opponent's defensive area, Ethan did not find any good opportunities, and he began to look for other legal receivers. .

And changes also happened at this time.

Ethan's human body wall standing in front of the forward line was broken away by the opponent's defensive linemen.Two members of the defensive line immediately approached Ethan.

With his pocket lost, Ethan had no choice but to react quickly in a short period of time.

He threw a ball that no one expected, and the football flew toward his eleven o'clock direction, and the two receivers at the deep end were not in that direction at all.

At the same time, Payton leaned back and reached the ball with one hand. After turning around, he was knocked down before he could take two steps forward and gained five yards.

"Ethan O'Connor completed an excellent response and passed the ball at the last moment. Although he did not get the first attack, he still allowed the line of scrimmage to successfully advance!" the on-site commentator said at this time.

"The situation just now was quite thrilling. Two defensive linemen have successfully rushed in front of Ethan O'Connor..." the commentator mentioned the problem.

It can be said that the Normans once again encountered the same problem they faced against the Santa Ana Saints before - a weak front.

Although the forwards do not have many shots on the field, and the offensive linemen are not legal receivers, they are the foundation of a team's strength.

If there is no blockage on the front, the quarterback's actions will inevitably be interfered with, which will lead to problems for the entire offensive team.

Correspondingly, the defensive team will naturally place heavy bets on this aspect and send the most competitive players to this position.This is also the origin of the common name "line dad".

The Normans are not good at this aspect. Including the return of three new players, they have actually strengthened their catching and charging abilities, but the forward line has not been strengthened accordingly.

This also means that when facing higher-level opponents, the Normans are more likely to have their front line collapse.

That was the fatal flaw Highland High School found in Norman.

But the reason why Ethan is favored means that he is not easily targeted.

In the next offense, although the Normans dragged a weak forward line, causing quarterback Ethan to be frequently pressed against him, Ethan was always able to rely on his excellent ball running skills to get through the short gaps in the roundabout process with the opponent. Pass the ball out and still maintain a very good passing success rate.

There was even one time when Ethan was pulled on his mask, his neck was forced to rotate, and he was fouled, but he still passed the ball to Flea at the far end, and Flea also caught the ball.

"Faced with the interference of multiple opponents' tackles, Ethan O'Connor in the pocket showed amazing mobility in the pocket!"

"Now he not only has to find gaps in defense, but also has to face the pressure of half the forwards. This is one person fighting against half the defense! There is no doubt that this is a new situation for Ethan O'Connor. challenge.”

"And he showed a brand new way of coping. He did not change his established style of play, but chose to fight against his opponent head-on!"

In the first quarter, relying on the super toughness shown by Ethan O'Connor, the Normans completed a touchdown. On the other hand, the opponent chose to take a free kick after being unable to attack for a long time. The Normans took a 7-3 advantage.

"Resist the pressure." As soon as he arrived at the venue, Thomas immediately began to massage Ethan to relax his body.

He naturally knew that Ethan's current way of coping was extremely exhausting.

In fact, Thomas chose the long-passing tactical style before the game to avoid close contact with the opponent's forward, not only to protect Ethan, but also to allow Ethan to save energy.After all, the semester is not even half over yet, and the upcoming schedule will be very intensive for Ethan, and he will face more powerful opponents. The overall intensity of sports is an order of magnitude higher than the competition at the end of last semester.

However, he is the anchor of the team and cannot be separated from him most of the time. His playing time is the most among all the players.

Considering the above reasons, this will cause an extremely huge consumption for Ethan, so he must save as much as possible.

"Let Cooper also go up front, stand on the right side of the wild boar, and serve as the right tackle." Ethan poured water on his head.

In this game, the fullbacks and running backs are more responsible for defensive tasks and can make targeted adjustments.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Normans stationed more troops on the front line, which achieved certain results.

However, there are still situations where the front line is lost. You must know that the two forward players of the Rams are considered to be the top defensive players in the NFL. At this time, they have shown strong dominance in the front line. Their height and size alone stand in front of them. There will be enough pressure there, and even if Cooper is added to the Norman side, it will still be difficult to make up for the disadvantage.

In the middle and later part of the second quarter, Ethan began to frequently fight with two defensive players again, but this time Ethan still withstood the pressure and maintained the pressure to the midfield.

"Ugh..." As soon as he entered the locker room, Cooper hugged the trash can and vomited.

His whole body was knocked dizzy. The intensity of the pure force confrontation on the front line made it difficult for him as a full-back to adapt, and his face turned pale.

Several other offensive linemen didn't look good overall either.

Ethan walked into the locker room at this time carrying his helmet.

Cooper raised his head and found that apart from a little redness and sweating on Ethan's face, there were no more obvious changes.

You must know that he is the position with the greatest pressure. It can be said that he goes all out every time. If he takes a step slower, he will be caught up by the two close defensive fronts. It can be said that he cannot stop for a moment.

Although he exerted the greatest physical exertion, he seemed to be the most relaxed one.

"Monster-level super physical strength!"

Cooper whispered, suddenly discovering Ethan's ultimate weapon besides his ball skills and speed!
However, Ethan not only relied on his body, but also made a series of adjustments in the midfield.

The defensive team still has tasks. Ethan will not move, but he has made drastic changes to the offensive team. Munster has also been placed on the front line by him, combining an offensive lineman who is really unable to support him with the largest substitute. Make adjustments.

The previous defeat in Santa Ana was still fresh in his mind, and Ethan would not make the same mistake.

"Ethan, I..." Cooper raised his hand and sneered.

"I really can't survive. My head is buzzing. I probably have a concussion!" Cooper shook his head. It was not that he wanted to be a deserter, but his physical condition was indeed not optimistic.

Ethan walked over and snapped his fingers in his ear.

"It's all psychological. Is that all about being so tall?" Ethan showed disdain.

Now that he has no cards to use, Cooper has to finish the game even if he is really concussed.

"I..." Before Cooper could finish his words, Ethan directly put the helmet on Cooper's head.
