Time rolled back two seconds.
As Brady was reading the defense, Revis was reading the offense—
More precisely, Revis was reading Amendola.
Clearly, Brady noticed the heavy deployment in Kansas City Chiefs' short pass area, but the New England Patriots still had different offensive tactic choices.
They could throw long, they could run, they could throw short.
However, it was unclear whether the Kansas City Chiefs were ready to blitz and pressure; at this moment, in the area where the two front lines confronted each other, both sides accumulated a large number of players, making it completely bloated, noisy, and chaotic.
This scene sparked an idea in Revis's mind—
Screen pass.
The principle of the screen pass is quite simple: imagine the offensive line as a movable screen.
