Chapter 816: Beast Charge
How terrifying are the Super Bowl ratings?
The halftime break has just begun, and the live broadcaster NBC announced the number of viewers in the first half through the Internet. A total of about 11.13 million viewers across the United States watched the live broadcast of the first half.
This is enough to show the value of the Super Bowl and also enough to prove why the Super Bowl midfield advertisement can be sold at a sky-high price of $30,000 per second!
From this we can also draw on how much investment is in a Hollywood movie in the Super Bowl. In most cases, the advertisement of a movie in the Super Bowl will last for thirty seconds. From Duke's advertising for "The Island of Dead" in the Super Bowl as the beginning of the collaboration between Hollywood and the Super Bowl, after years of development, thirty seconds has become a routine.
The cost of this advertising is $30,000 per second, and $90,000 in thirty seconds!
Such a huge advertising fee can only be given by commercial films with big investments and big productions. Those that appear in Super Bowl midfield advertisements are all mainstream commercial masterpieces without exception.
Since the Marvel superhero appeared on social networks, Roone Webber has been following the news about "Avengers". As the halftime break began, he sat in front of the TV and waited for the video advertisement.
He was not disappointed, as the film's advertising time period just began, "Avengers" was the first to appear.
Although the promotional video is short, it contains a lot of content.
More action scenes, more big scenes, Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Hulk appeared together...
Just an advertisement made Roon Webber unable to remove his eyes.
A large number of unprecedented hot action scenes, accompanied by quick editing pictures and tragic music, create a sense of doomsday in the world. The trailer even exposed the most exciting scenes at the end of the film: the streets of New York filled with gunpowder, six superheroes who were attacked from both sides appeared together, each holding their best weapons and preparing to resist the attacks of their strong enemies together.
This is the strongest alliance in history!
This is the strongest team on earth!
After watching this commercial, Roon Webber even felt that Madonna's midfield performance was nothing exciting.
The midfielder of this Super Bowl was Madonna, who appeared in the style of Cleopatra, pushing the atmosphere to the peak.
The Super Bowl is a very strange event, with the ratings of the halftime far higher than the game itself.
After the halftime break, the game started again. The Los Angeles Raiders, which were in full swing in the first quarter, were not only reversed in the second quarter, but also seemed to be in a state at the beginning of the second half, and were so suppressed by the New York Giants that he couldn't raise his head.
At 11 minutes and 2 seconds in the third quarter, Eli Manning sent a 20-yard long pass, and the Giants' tight end received the ball and the touchdown was successful. The kicker then scored a penalty, and the Giants changed the score to 17-9.
The situation has become extremely unfavorable for the Los Angeles Raiders, with Duke and Leonardo frowning tightly. If the team does not change, they will undoubtedly lose this Super Bowl.
After the Raiders' offense was fruitless and had to choose to pounce four attacks, the team's defense team stood up. In the Giants' offense, they first sacked Eli Manning, making the Giants' three attacks fruitless. They could only choose to pounce. The Raiders' secret service team, which was like sleepwalking throughout the game, suddenly found their state. After receiving the opponent's punt, they got rid of the defense and launched a counterattack. They were not knocked out of the sideline until the midfield.
This allowed the Raiders' offense to be launched from the 5-yard line, but Tom Brady had difficulty finding the state of the first quarter. Although the team advanced to the Giants' 2-yard line, they were sacked in the third attack. The Raiders had to give up the touchdown and scored four shots from 3-yards. The score gap between the two sides was narrowed to 12-17.
Tom Brady's bad condition was like an infectious disease. It not only spread to the Raiders' offensive team, but also to the Giants' star quarterback Eli Manning.
In this game, Eli Manding, who performed well, was also sacked by the Raiders' defensive forwards in the subsequent attack, resulting in a four-attack punt, and the Raiders' chance to attack again.
It seemed that he was not in good shape today. Tom Brady simply changed the team's tactics of passing and attacking, and instead used running backs to rush on the ground. After several years of training, Marshawn Lynch played a terrifying level and achieved his first goal rushing in succession under the cover of the offensive front line.
However, when pushing to the Giants' 3-yard line, the Giants strengthened the ground defense, forcing Tom Brady to change his tactics, and made two pass mistakes in succession. The Raiders had to give up touchdowns again and chose to score by shooting. At the end of the third quarter, the score between the two sides was close to 15-17.
"We can reverse the score by just one shot!"
Hearing Scarlett's words, Duke nodded, but said with concern, "The team is not in good shape today."
Leonardo corrected, "It should be said that the defense teams of both teams performed very well."
Compared with the offensive team, the defensive teams of the two teams are more like the protagonists today, with many good shows of interception and sacking.
In the fourth quarter, the defense teams of the two teams still performed well. Until the last two minutes of the game, the score was still 15-17. If it ended with such a score, the New York Giants would take this Super Bowl away.
This is the Super Bowl after all. Seeing the stalemate on the court, even Duke, who has always been calm, was a little anxious. He didn't care about the cameras that swept over from time to time, and frequently shouted something with Scarlett and Leonardo.
It is not easy to win the Vince Lombardi Cup again, and no team has ever done it in recent years.
When the team's offensive performance is not good, someone must stand up. American football, like British football, attaches importance to teamwork sports, but there is never a lack of personal heroism to change the situation of a game.
With 1 minute and 55 seconds left in the game, the Raiders used up their last timeout and then launched an attack from their 20-yard line. Tom Brady, who was in poor form, performed slightly. The first two attackers got eight yards with passing. If the team wanted to regain the first attack and continue to advance, they had to score two yards next.
With less than a minute left, if the Raiders' offensive team performs well, that time is enough to continue to push forward and complete a touchdown.
In the next three attacks, letting the running back hold the ball and make two yards is undoubtedly the safest way. Tom Brady did make such a choice.
After the center kicked off, Tom Brady quickly retreated and made a pass. This was not a fake move. The ball came to the hands of running back Marshawn Lynch.
Marshaun Lynch made a rushing left, but the attacking forwards of the Raiders concentrated on rushing to the opponent's right defense line. Just as several players of the Giants were about to intercept Marshaun Lynch, Marshaun Lynch suddenly changed direction and rushed towards the gap squeezed out of the offensive front line.
Like a black beast, Marshaun Lynch was not too fast, but he was full of power. He squeezed through this small gap and easily completed two yards of advance, but he did not stop, and there seemed to be no force to stop his impact.
A Giants defender hugged his waist, but was removed by Massane Lynch; on the other side, the defender turned over and grabbed his ankle. Massane Lynch staggered but did not fall, broke free from the opponent's hand, and continued to rush forward.
As two Giants joined the ranks of blocking Marshawn Lynch, the Raiders' offensive front line also broke through the Giants' defensive team's pockets with their number advantage and rushed to Marshawn Lynch.
They blocked Marshawn Lynch's side, forming a barrier for him.
"Stop him! Stop him!"
On the court, the Giants fans seemed to have foreseeed something and could no longer sit in the position. They stood up and shouted loudly, asking the Giants to stop the black monster.
"Run!Run!Run!"
The Raiders fans, who were equally stunning, were not sitting there, and they made a loud shout.
Duke and Leonardo also stood up and stared at the running back who was charging with the ball on the court.
Another Giants player rushed over, but was stopped by the Raiders tackle. Another cornerback rushed up and touched Marshawn Lynch's waist with his hands. Before he could exert force, the beast that had already rushed up threw him behind him with an unstoppable momentum.
The Giants cornerback could only lie on the ground and watch Marshawn Lynch run towards his defensive end, with despair in his eyes.
On the bench, the New York Giants' offensive team, the Secret Service team and the coaches also showed desperate eyes.
Right next to it, everyone stood up on the bench of the Los Angeles Raiders, and they all raised their hands.
On the court, all the Raiders fans also raised their hands!
In the box, Duke, Scarlett and Leonardo also raised their hands!
Marshaun Lynch has gotten rid of all defenses, ten yards, five yards, three yards, one yard...
The Raiders players on the court also raised their hands. Marshawn Lynch rushed into the touchdown zone and scored for 67 yards. The Los Angeles Raiders overtook the score 21-17!
This means that the New York Giants must score a touchdown in their subsequent offense, and the three-pointer shot is not enough to change the result of the game.
However, with only 9 seconds left in the game, the Raiders have another chance to play additional points.
The Raiders did not choose to play. After the center kicked off, Tom Brady quickly retreated and tried his best to spend time. When the New York Giants players approached, they knelt on one knee to end the attack.
He only left the New York Giants for 3 seconds, which obviously can't do anything.
Time soon reached the end, the Raiders defeated the Giants 21-19, and Duke's team won the Super Bowl again! (To be continued.)
