Chapter 212 New Business 5

Jake saw the opposing team advance 37 yards before making the punt, so the attacking team along with Jake would finally have their chance to play, they would start from the 30-yard line, so had to get 7 runs to get to Endzone.

The play suggestion was a race with the RB that was on Jake's left, Jake decided to try this play and called the play with much more confidence than in the first practice after Hut Jake received the ball and handed it to the player RB that was on the left.

The RB ran to the left trying to get out of the opposing defensive line, even though Jake thought both of his team's RBs were too fast, before being knocked down he managed to advance 4 yards which was very good to get the first down.

After the team quickly organized to start another play, again they would try a race, Jake received the ball and went to the left RB again who managed to advance 7 yards this time getting the first down for the team in the game.

After a few moves Jake realized that the opposing team's defense was actually much lower than the Elite team's defense that Jake always had to face in training, only with the races did they get after many moves to advance more than 50 yards and less to go of 20 to reach Endzone and get the touchdown.

Even though sometimes Jake had to change the suggested moves he didn't need to make any passes for the WR, but in the last 20 yards, it seemed that the opposing defense started to improve suddenly and in the first 2 races they could only advance 4 yards.

So on the third try the assistant said it was time for Jake to try a pass, Jake got excited and after receiving the ball from Center began to analyze the play, the recommended play was with the left WR, but both WR they were well defended on the routes they ran.

Jake saw that the RB was also well observed by the opposing defenders, so within seconds Jake realized that he had no choice in this play, so he saw that he could be able to advance himself with the ball from the left.

When Jake started running an opposing DT player had just passed the protection of his teammates, if Jake took another minute he would no longer have a chance to try the race.

Jake managed to run trying to get as close as possible to the left sideline, he had a good run and managed to catch his opponents off guard and was knocked down after advancing 11 more yards.

He was happy to get down after the move but was upset when he realized he was close to getting the touchdown he wanted so much when he was asked to play, of course, he knew it was very difficult for him to achieve as a Quarterback.

Coach Jim was very pleased with Jake's performance, it would have been worthwhile to invite Jake to this friendly for the football team alone, even though Jake wasn't necessarily better than his team's quarterbacks he had a different style of game.

Just 3 yards to Endzone, Jake's team was excited as opponents were afraid of falling behind, Jake, who had experience of being under pressure, only calmly organized the play.

The assistant said the suggestion was a race, but that Jake could try the pass if he could get the Touchdown after that Jake received the ball and the right WR entered Endzone and ran into the middle unmarked.

Jake didn't miss this opportunity and made a bullet pass to the receiving WR and dived to the ground to secure the touchdown.

After that Jake celebrated as if he had dunk or Alley-oop in the game, it was very satisfying to give a pass that ends with the team's touchdown, so the Elite team was winning by 6 points.

After the team kicker still hit the kick and made an extra point, now the Elite team had 7 points lead against the opposing team in the game, Jake returned to the bench to rest happily and was congratulated by his teammates.

The opposing team failed to score in their chance to attack and punctured again after advancing more than 50 yards.

In this first quarter ended with neither team getting any points and the Elite team continued to win by 7 points, in the second quarter of the game the opposing team managed to score 3 points with a field goal.

Jake suffered Sack a few times because he had no play options and WR fumbled a few plays and the Elite team lost some chances to increase the lead.

In the middle of the third quarter the Elite team was just 30 yards from Endzone, Jake was starting to get tired of the pressure of the game even though he had plenty of time to rest between plays.

After two races they had advanced just 2 yards and Jake was in a dilemma about what to do, as the players were on vacation and we're just playing a friendly with a weaker team, Jake's offensive teammates were not taking the play very seriously.

Fortunately, the coach had a lot of control over the defensive team that was doing his part, so the Elite team was still winning the game, but the opposing team was seeing an opportunity to win with the inattentive offensive team.

Jake would only play this friendly as an Elite team football player, so he seriously trying to win differently from his teammates, so in this third race, Jake told the coach to put 3 WR into this play.

That would make it obvious that it was a pass attempt, but Jake thought the WRs were at least playing this game more seriously and he might have a better chance of getting another pass down.

Coach Jim had also realized the problem of the offensive team, but he could not solve it in the middle of the game and so agreed with Jake and put another WR on the field, the opponent had also made changes to defend themselves better.

But Jake thought the opposing team's defense was weaker and so they didn't have much flexibility to adapt to unexpected game changes, Jake also asked the incoming WR to be higher and the coach put the 2.03 WR in feet tall.

So after the play started and the taller WR ran diagonally from right to left, so Jake's TE blocked the opponent a bit and the WR got free and kept running.

Even so Jake held the pass as he saw that his teammates were able to hold their opponents longer, so Jake made the pass when a DE managed to pass and prepared to Sack Jake.

Two players from the opposing team were chasing after the highest WR and so Jake did the unexpected and went to the right-hand WR, even though the opposing CB did not expect Jake to give up the higher WR and passed the ball. what he was marking for.

The high pass that Jake made was very easy for WR to catch with his fingertips while jumping, it was so good that WR received the pass and still managed to stand and the opponent CB's front, so he kept running.

He ran as hard as he could yet be knocked down 4 yards before Endzone, so the Elite team would have 4 more chances to try the touchdown or Field goal, Jake was confident of getting it and asked the coach to keep the 3 WR for those attacks.

Since the RB no longer seemed to want to attack and make the moves Jake thought it was best to try riskier passes, but if he got one of the three passes would be enough for the touchdown.

In the first play, WR almost managed to catch the pass but dropped the ball and after struggling to maintain possession of the ball, so in the other play as they wondered which WR Jake would choose he decided to run left with the ball.

The DE realized that Jake was attempting the touchdown and decided to intercept Jake before he attempted the slide, but Jake had no thought of trying the slide and when the DE appeared for contact Jake had the ball under his left arm.

Endzone was only 4 yards away, but in Shotgun position, Jake received the ball a few yards back and so needed to run much harder to touchdown, Jake blocked the DE who weighed over 100 kg with his right arm making a Stiff Arm.

So Jake managed to protect the ball and made the touchdown for the Elite team, now the Elite team had 13 points and was 10 more than the opponent, the kicker missed the shot and missed the chance to get an extra point, but all they knew the game was decided.

Jake was happy to have made a touchdown, he used the fact that the RBs were unmotivated and asked for another WR for the coach, he asked for the highest WR and everyone thought Jake who had a good pass would use WR's height to get the touchdown.

So Jake got another breakthrough for the team by fooling opponents and even teammates, missing 4 yards. Jake kept the WR because he was thinking of using the 3 bait WR and getting a CB that could hinder his race to do the touchdown.

So he got the touchdown even risking the whole team attack, that could be bad for a normal QB, but Jake wasn't really from the football team and would just play this friendly, besides, he had made a good game and helped the team.

He always wanted to do a touchdown and couldn't miss that chance with the team winning, to ensure the touchdown Jake even used the Stiff Arm he had only seen on television to not risk the slide.

In the fourth quarter Jake managed to get the Elite team to less than 20 yards to Endzone, so Coach Jim who saw that the Elite team had already won decided to make a Field goal to end the game, the kicker redeemed himself and scored 3 more points and increased the score to 16 points.

So the opposing team also gave up trying to win the game and the game ended after a while with the Elite team winning 16-3, Jake left happy with this victory.
