In America, the winner takes all.

Chapter 188 "Wrong" Pass

"Of course, Ethan, I have a lot to teach you. For example, reading the defense, such as short passes..." Randy looked at Ethan with a smile on his face.Somewhat fearful.

He is different from other specialized coaches, but he has the cake in Ethan's hands.

"But before that, I want to know, you didn't take any photos at that time, right?" Randy Ross confirmed.

If the photos of him making out with the cheerleaders were released, he would undoubtedly be fired. This is clearly written in his contract.

Ethan shook his head: "Of course I didn't take pictures, you can just keep your heart in your stomach."

Randy Rose breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Ethan would not be so unscrupulous.

But I heard Ethan change the subject: "I just took out the home video recorder and took a video of you two."

Video?This is not as good as a photo.

"Ethan...I...you know, this is related to my privacy. Can you hand me that videotape..." Randy Ross came closer.

I only heard him say in a very small voice: "You don't have to mess with me like this! We are staunch comrades, and I will support you unlimitedly in the team."

"Of course, thank you Coach Randy Ross for your kindness. Where is the tape? I will dispose of it privately then." Ethan smiled.

"Are you threatening me?" Randy Ross said through gritted teeth.

"How is that possible, Coach Randy Rose, I still need you to teach me some experience in the quarterback position." Ethan smiled and patted Randy Rose on the shoulder.

Randy Ross was ready to speak many times, but in the end he had no choice but to give up. Now he has understood that Ethan is not that easy to get rid of.

"Okay, what do you want to learn? I have taught many quarterbacks." Randy Rose said.

As the team's quarterback coach, Randy is mainly responsible for training Ethan's arms and lower body on weekdays, including concentration training and passing accuracy training.

"Listen Ethan, I have a special skill, and I think it's time to teach it to you now, a long pass with a large number of yards..." Randy Rose nodded, ready to hand over the bottom of the box. Ethan.

"Like this?" Ethan weighed the football in his hand, rounded his arms, and threw the football diagonally upward.

The moment the football was released from Ethan's hands, Randy could even hear the wind coming from the football. He quickly looked up and saw the football rushing towards the roof like a rocket fired from a missile silo.

"boom!!!"

Randy saw the football directly hit the metal beam of the indoor football field that was more than a hundred yards high, making a clear but loud echo.

At this time, several players and coaches next to Ethan also saw this scene and shouted nice.As for Freddy, who was standing not far away, he couldn't help but shake his head. You must know that he usually doesn't have this distance even if he throws during a run-up, let alone Ethan just swinging his arms in place.

Obviously, humans and monsters cannot compare in physical fitness.

As for places farther away, several FOX TV cameras also recorded this scene...

"Then we can try to practice mid-range passing. You can try to pass the ball in a straight line instead of a curve, which will make the pass as fast as a bullet." Randy Rose continued.

"This kind?" Ethan took the football thrown by his teammate and threw it again.

This time Randy Rose only saw the afterimage of the football passing quickly in front of him, his expression was extremely embarrassing.

"Now that you've figured out the trick to long and short passes, we can also practice short passes."

As a result, Ethan's hidden magic pass once again surprised Randy Rose.

"It seems you can't teach me anything." Ethan shook his head.

There are also differences between coaches. Looking at it this way, Randy Rose still has a little less stock in his belly.

"and many more!"

Just when Ethan was about to turn around and leave, he heard Randy shout.

"Since you have mastered all three types of passing, we can only practice more advanced passing movements!" Randy Rose pondered.

"Do you know more advanced passing moves?" Ethan's expression looked like he had heard some fantasy.

"Well... at least I've considered it." Randy Ross nodded.

He did consider it, but it was only a consideration. At this moment, his brain was working rapidly and he began to "fantasy" about a more advanced and incredible passing skill.

"It has never even appeared in the NFL. It is different from any passing method that exists today. It is the fourth type of passing..." Randy picked up a football and made a gesture for Ethan on the spot.

"We all know football spins on itself when it's released, like this."

"Why can't the football be made to spin upside down and sideways when released?" Randy Ross asked.

Without Ethan speaking, Freddy next to the two of them took the initiative and said: "Of course there is, but we are more accustomed to calling it - a mistake."

Generally, if a pass is released in a hurry when being interfered by a defensive player, the ball's flight trajectory will become what Randy Ross said.This causes the ball to slow down and the distance of the pass to be shortened.

"Yes, it looks like a turnover, but it's also deceptive. Imagine that when everyone thought Ethan was passing the ball to the deep end, the football drew a weird arc and landed in the hands of the running back. , this is so confusing!”

"You can try it." Ethan nodded immediately.

Everyone can tell that Randy said this in a joking tone and was more of a bullshit.

But it also inspired Ethan.

There is no doubt that this pass is completely confusing.

But the disadvantages are equally obvious. The passing speed of this kind of ball is too slow, which will leave enough time for defenders to react.

To catch the opponent off guard, the speed of this pass must be accelerated.

When it came to the actual implementation stage, Ethan discovered how difficult it was to speed up the ball in this state.

A slight increase in force will cause the ball's landing point to deviate significantly from the intended position.

Reducing power will slow down the ball speed.

"You are not playing against the University of Tennessee. You are playing against Newton and Bernoulli." Second-level coach Curley noticed some weird passing exercises by the quarterback team. After walking over and watching for a while, he spoke. road.

Randy Ross also shrugged at this time: "Creativity is good, but it does not have the value of being used in actual combat."

Even the "inventor" himself felt that this passing method was not feasible.

Only Ethan did not give up and kept taking action. After trying again and again, he never got a satisfactory result.

In the lens of the fox camera, a thoughtful expression appeared on Ethan's face...

Time has entered October, and the autumn wind is getting colder.

On October 35th, the Crimson Tide faced the University of Kentucky Wildcats from afar at Bryant-Denny Stadium, the first-level home court. Ethan played the entire game as a quarterback for the first time, and eventually defeated easily 7–. The opponent, Ethan, started to show strength in the third quarter, allowing the team to score four touchdowns in a row.

A week later, on October 24, the Crimson Tide visited Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh, North Carolina, and won again 19-24 on the road.Ethan made 20 of 247 passes and got 33 yards. In addition to Sean Alexander, another running back, Dennis Riddle, shined in this game, running the ball 154 times and getting three runs for . touchdown ball.

And at home a week later, the Crimson Tide kept a clean sheet for the first time this season!
In a 37-0 home victory over the Mississippi Rebels, the team, including Eason, blossomed.

So far, the team has won all 7 games, leaving its competitors in the Western half behind with one more game in hand.

Two serious challenges in the West half, LSU and Auburn, both lost to the University of Florida Gators.

The Tennessee Volunteers with Peyton Manning also lost to the Florida Gators as early as September 9st.

In the entire SEC, only the Florida Gators and Crimson Tide currently maintain undefeated victories.

Although the schedule is already halfway through, things are just beginning for the Crimson Tide.

Compared to the weak opponents in the first half, the Crimson Tide's strong opponents were all crowded in the second half.

Tennessee, Louisiana State, Mississippi State, Auburn, and finally Florida. Whichever one of these four opponents loses, the Western Conference championship will be lost. If they win all, they will be in the final game of this season. Facing the most powerful Florida, this game will directly determine who will win the SEC championship.

And if they can finally win Florida, the title of "the strongest in the country" will be within their reach.

"Sorry, you have to leave. It's private time next." Ethan turned his head and asked the camera crew to leave.

Just now, the camera crew filmed Ethan's date scene in his spare time, and the heroine was naturally McKenna.

This is not the first time the two have dated in front of the camera.

"I'm not going home tonight. I just called my parents and I'm going to spend the night at Jenny's house tonight." McKenna said to Ethan with a blushing face.

McKenna is already a college student and has to take that step.She didn't want to be an "old Virgin" when she was 20 years old.

Faced with McKenna's overtures, Ethan naturally chose to accept her. He drove to a hotel in the south of Tuscaloosa.

If it was like the others before, McKenna's first intimate encounter was fraught with tension.

"I'm afraid this won't work. You have to change your posture." McKenna said silently.

"Yes, you are right." At this critical moment, Ethan thought of the "upside-down pass" that he had been obsessed with for more than half a month.

McKenna’s words reminded Ethan.

Since it is a special pass, traditional shooting methods cannot achieve satisfactory results.

So, why not try a different approach?
