In America, the winner takes all.

Chapter 324 Dallas doesn’t believe in tears (Part )

Standing in the players' tunnel, Ethan could hear the singing coming from the field. At this time, the team owner Jones family was standing next to the players, expressing condolences and final encouragement to the players.

With Ethan's now gradually marginalized status, Old Jones would certainly not talk to him in person. He had talked to Emmett for a long time and had obviously regarded him as the new team leader.

Ethan looked at Charlotte on the other side of Old Jones at this time, and she was also looking at him.

At this time, Charlotte's eyes were particularly complicated, with some helplessness, some reluctance, anxiety, confusion, and so on. She looked sad and her eyebrows were lowered. She obviously knew that this was Ethan's last performance. Cowboys jersey game.

Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she summoned up the courage and walked towards Ethan.

The team members who were about to appear, including the old Jones family, all looked at her at this time. In everyone's eyes, Charlotte came to Ethan.

"Idiot!" Charlotte said angrily, lowering her voice in Ethan's ear.

If Ethan could have reported the news to his father before disclosing the news to reporters, it would not have developed to this situation.

What a pity, what a pity.

When she thought of this, Charlotte couldn't help crying. She ignored the eyes of others and gave Ethan a hug in front of everyone.

Then he turned and left without looking back.

When Old Jones saw his daughter's behavior, he was immediately furious and his face turned red in a rare sight.

Ethan sneered inwardly when he saw Old Jones's reaction.

Better days are yet to come, Jerry Jones.

At this time, the staff also raised their hands to signal the players to come on stage. Ethan followed the team members out of the tunnel and passed by old Jones.

Hard Rock Stadium is now decorated with a bright light orange theme color that can be seen everywhere.

Looking around, most fans are wearing dark blue jerseys with the Lone Star printed on them. Of course, there are also a lot of spectators wearing orange Broncos support uniforms.

"It is expected that 74 people will come to watch the game today. This is the Super Bowl with the largest audience so far. Hard Rock Stadium has temporarily added seats for this purpose." Madden's voice appeared in the live broadcast signal again.

He and Pat Summerl, the golden pair, did their job as the on-site commentators for Super Bowl XXXIII.

"Of course, we can't forget the hundreds of millions of viewers watching this live broadcast outside the venue."

"Of course, after a long two weeks of waiting, we finally have today, the Super Bowl."

"As a National League team, the Cowboys enjoy rotating home court treatment this year. In the previous regular season, they relied on almost the best results since the team was founded to enter the playoffs. In the divisional round, the Cowboys defeated the Stephen Young-led team 49ers. Then they defeated the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC finals. Many people thought that as a group of golden players gradually aged, the Cowboys' performance would begin to decline."

"In fact, this is true. The two key men, Troy Aikman and Michael Irvin, left the game due to injuries. The Cowboys' three Musketeers left only Emmitt Smith on the court. But they were in Jerry Jones. In the nine years since joining the Cowboys, I am standing in the Super Bowl for the fifth time."

"After a staggering season, this year's Cowboys ushered in the most outstanding quarterback star in history...Ethan O'Connor, the sixth overall pick to enter the NFL's California young man, in the regular season He gained more than 28 yards and touchdowns. He completely activated the Cowboys and gave the entire Cowboys offensive line a new look..."

"What we see on the camera now is the Cowboys' former meritorious coach, Tom Landry. He coached the Cowboys for twenty full seasons. He created the first Cowboys dynasty."

"Today he was part of the pregame coin toss as a participant in that championship game 50 years ago, and so on, and we see him walking over to Ethan O'Connor and, oh, the two of them embraced each other warmly. That's a guy that deserves to be At the moment of recording, maybe he was asking Ethan O'Connor to start a new dynasty, the third dynasty of the Cowboys..."

"The next step on the court is the Cowboys' opponent today, the Denver Broncos, led by the experienced John Elway. In the pre-game press conference not long ago, John Elway had confirmed that this Super Bowl will It will be the last game of his career. After playing in the NFL for nearly two decades, John Elway has accumulated more than 5 yards. Today is his fourth time on the Super Bowl stage. I don’t know if he can play in the professional league. At the end of my career, we have a perfect finale!”

On the field, Ethan, who had just shaken hands with Tom Landry, saw the Broncos walking onto the field.

Today's Cowboys wear special black home jerseys, while the Broncos wear pure white.

When it came to the coin toss before the game, Ethan had already turned around and came to the sidelines. But he was pushed out by his teammates, including Emmitt Smith, who kept waving to Ethan, indicating that Ethan would join him in the coin toss.

This is the recognition of Ethan’s performance from his teammates this season.

Ethan took a deep breath and walked onto the field again to participate in the coin toss with Emmett.

In the box, when Old Jones saw Ethan walking onto the stage, his expression became increasingly cold. He looked at the empty seats next to him and sighed helplessly.

Walking towards him was John Elway. After years of etching, you could see the traces of time on his face. John Elway looked particularly calm at this moment.

This was both John Elway's last game and Ethan's last game with the Cowboys.

If that's the case, then go all out.

The Cowboys got the first chance. Chris Warren, the Cowboys' returner, looked up and stepped back, accurately found the landing point of the football, and then quickly started. At this time, the Cowboys' special team had already stood in front of him. The shield, Chris Warren sprinted toward the sideline.

Facing the oncoming Broncos special teams player, Chris Warren leaned to one side, induced the opponent to move, and then quickly ran to the other side, nimbly rushing out in front of the opposing Broncos player.

The next second, he felt a huge force coming from behind him. From the perspective of others, he could see clearly that a Broncos player directly knocked Chris Warren down with a flying dive. Chris Warren rolled over, and the entire The person fell out of the venue.

37-yard line, which is an acceptable result for the Cowboys.

Ethan came to the court with his offensive teammates, and the defensive team members who came on the court at the same time had their eyes firmly fixed on Ethan.

What is completely different from the previous game is that this time Ethan is completely integrated into the team's tactical system. The tactics that need to be used in this game have been firmly engraved in Ethan's mind. Not only Ethan, but also others The players' routes have also been determined before the game, just like a precisely compiled chess record, and the players' independent performance is compressed to the smallest possible extent.

In the first offense, Ethan quickly observed after receiving the pass from the center... Many players, including the defensive end, rushed towards him.

A fast and oppressive pass rush... Ethan saw the opponent's tactical choice, and a way to deal with it immediately appeared in his mind.

He quickly turned around and handed the ball directly to Emmitt Smith. The running back had already completed the start. He cut a "bloody path" in the double team of three people, rushed out from the middle, and was then Knock down quickly.

In the subsequent attacks, Ethan also fully implemented the tactics that Dave Campo arranged before the game. He ran the ball when it was time to run and passed the ball when it was time to pass.

Things surprisingly went well, with the Cowboys pushing all the way to halftime. In the process of advancing, due to a defensive foul by Broncos defensive back Steve Atwater, the Cowboys' line was directly advanced by fifteen yards. After that, Emmitt Smith even used a 31-yard long-distance goal. The run pushed the line of scrimmage directly into the Broncos' backfield.

The touchdown is just around the corner!

Almost immediately after Emmett's long run ended, Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan immediately called a timeout.

Today Mike Shanahan is wearing an orange suit, which is the main color of the Broncos.

On the other side, Dave Campo also stood on the sidelines, high-fiving the Cowboys offensive players as they walked off the field: "Good job, boys."

Then the Cowboys' offensive players gathered around and Dave Campo began to lay out the next scoring offensive tactics.

"I think horns are very suitable." Dave Campo looked at all the players.

The bull horn tactic is a tactic of continuous running ball fakes to cover and then short passes to running back Emmitt.

Dave Campo has been studying various tactics for a while, many of which have very complex short passing combinations. This is the most popular "West Coast Offensive" tactical system, which uses short passing to stretch the formation, thereby attacking the opponent. The defensive team pulled and pulled, waiting for an opportunity to launch a long-yard attack.

At the beginning of this season, Ethan experienced the power of the "West Coast Offense." The Cowboys used the West Coast Offense extensively when they met the Raiders in the preseason.

The most fundamental reason why it is called the "West Coast Offense" is the series of achievements created by Bill Walsh during his coaching period with the 49ers, including three Super Bowl championships, two Coach of the Year awards and many other awards.

This tactician master has a high reputation in the 49ers, including Joe Montana and Jerry Rice, whom Ethan has met, and they were all dug and trained by him.

In the past two years, the West Coast offense has begun to be accepted by more and more teams. The tactical system used by Dave Campo this time is based on the West Coast offense.

Team members, you look at me, I look at you, and finally I look at Ethan.

Ethan did not raise any objections. The Cowboys have been practicing on the West Coast offense for half a month. If they temporarily change tactics at this time, some players may be confused. Moreover, the current tactics of the Cowboys seem to be working well.

Soon, the brief pause ended, and Ethan and his teammates returned to the field again.

After forming the formation, Ethan gave the order: "Say go!"

As the center passed the ball to him, Ethan quickly made a fake move, seemingly running the ball, and turned around. At the same time, running back Emmett also moved diagonally forward, preparing to receive Ethan's pass. ball.

And just when Ethan was about to pass the ball, he suddenly hesitated.

He clearly saw that three Broncos players had already outflanked Emmitt Smith. It was like a trap. As long as he passed the ball, Emmitt would immediately become passive, and he would not even be able to get the ball at all. .

The question is, why is Youwei here?

At the moment Ethan hesitated, a linebacker rushed out of the middle and rushed towards Ethan.

There was no barrier in front of Ethan at this moment, and guard Daryl had already run in another direction to cover Emmett...

There was an immediate exclamation at the scene, in sharp contrast was the celebration of Broncos fans.

Ethan was tackled directly by the linebacker, which was a very nice sack behind the line.

"Ethan, I don't understand, why not pass the ball?"

When Ethan stood up wearing a helmet, he heard Dave Campo's voice coming from the headset.

"We have been seen through." Ethan suddenly said.

This time the Cowboys prepared a completely different tactical system that was derived from the West Coast offense, but the opponent seemed to have predicted the Cowboys' actions in advance!

It can even be said that the Broncos understand this tactic better than the Cowboys.

"Just look at the position of the free defender at the moment I passed the ball, and you will know that the opponent knows our tactics well." Ethan reminded.

"You mean, someone leaked the tactics to the Broncos in advance?" Dave asked.

"I mean, using the West Coast offense in front of Mike Shanahan is not a good choice." Eason looked at the Broncos head coach in an orange suit jacket in the distance.

Putting aside the extremely small probability of leaked tactics, the Broncos' head coach was a good assistant to Bill Walsh. During his tenure as head coach, Mike Shanahan served as the 49ers' offensive coordinator. .

In rugby, there is a term called "coaching tree", which is like the inheritance of a teacher. A team's assistant coach is often influenced by the head coach. Over time, he will adopt the head coach's tactical style, just like a star. Like a tree with branches and leaves, master tactician Bill Walsh also has many disciples, such as the head coach of the Raiders, and the head coach of the Broncos is also counted among them.

He has worked under the founder of the West Coast offense for many years, so he naturally knows the West Coast offense very well.

"Of course I know that, but Mike Shanahan doesn't know much about the West Coast offense. The Broncos rarely use short pass penetration tactics." Dave Campo paused and then responded.

"Just because the Broncos don't use it doesn't mean Mike Shanahan doesn't understand it."

In the next two offenses, the Cowboys' tactics were restrained by the Broncos' defense.

The two offenses only gained seven yards. For safety reasons, Dave Campo chose to take a free kick.

The Cowboys were already within reach of a touchdown, but could only score a measly three points.

Facts speak louder than words, and Dave Campo also feels that the Broncos are too familiar with the Cowboys' tactical choices. Often, before the ball is passed, the Broncos players have already moved closer to the landing point.

Unfortunately, the Cowboys are betting on tactics this time, and Ethan doesn't have much room to play.

"In this game, the offense will be harder than ever." Dave Campo said helplessly when the offensive team returned to the sideline.

"What about defense?"

Ethan watched the Broncos offense led by John Elway enter the field with great momentum...
