275 Fight to the End

Stumbling, fumbling—

Even though the Kansas Chiefs Offense reignited their fighting spirit, ready for battle; the Pittsburgh Steelers Defensive group remained highly vigilant, refusing to relax. At this moment, one could feel the essence of a truly strong team that had consistently stood at the pinnacle of the American League for the past sixteen years.

Smith quickly utilized short passes to compress the release time, connecting before the opposing Cornerback could stick to the defense, fighting for catching time for Hill and Kelsey. However, the Cornerbacks and linebackers' close-up defense remained sharp, leaving little space for breakthroughs after the catches.

In a blink, over a minute had passed, and the Kansas Chiefs struggled to advance sixteen yards, earning a first down only to be faced with a third and four situation. With the two-minute official timeout imminent, the midfield line still seemed to require a Herculean effort to reach.

Huffing, puffing.
