Chris Matthews

Today, I will introduce one of my favorite players, Chris Matthews. He was born in 1989, so he is 26 years old, and he graduated from the University of Kentucky. This university is famous for its American football team. His position is wide receiver (WR). This position is the leader of a pass play with the QB, so the main role of the WR is to catch a pass, which the QB throws in a pass play. The WR needs speed, a sure skill of catching a pass, to be tall and have long arms. Matthews is 196 centimeters, so he is taller than other players.

Matthews belonged to the Seattle Seahawks since 2014. He is called a "Cinderella Boy" by fans of American football, because he played an active part in the Super Bowl XLIX (49th). In that year, he wasn't active. He took part in regular season games only 3 times, so he didn't catching any passes or score touchdowns. But when he took part in Super Bowl XLIX (49th), he succeeded in important pass catches. In the second quarter, Russell Willson, who is the great QB threw a pass to Matthews, and then Matthews caught a pass of 44-yards. And in the remaining 6 seconds of the same quarter, he caught a pass and scored a touchdown!! His passing yardage was over 100 yards only in this game. It's a wonderful record!! He couldn't even catch a pass in the regular season, but he accomplished that great undertaking on the big stage of the Super Bowl. When I watched his great performances on TV, I was very excited!! In this game, the Seattle Seahawks lost, though Matthews played an active part, but I think that if the Seattle Seahawks had won, Matthews would have been chosen MVP.

If you want to watch exciting football, you should watch the Super Bowl and I want you to watch Mattthwes's big play in the bottom of two video clips. The Super Bowl is the 50th anniversary this time, so participants in the Super Bowl must have big performances. I am excited from now, because I can watch big and great performances by players like Chris Mattthews.
