Run the ball.
Lu Ke felt that he must be crazy. As soon as he took a step forward, that ridiculous thought came out. Later, Lu Ke realized that among today's game tasks, there happened to be a requirement to run the ball for a touchdown.
In fact, Lu Ke didn't take it to heart at all and had no intention of completing this task. Running the ball has never been his strong suit and has never been in his arsenal. In his opinion, the so-called running touchdown is just a joke of the system and does not need to be taken seriously. There is no penalty for failure in the mission anyway.
But now, the opportunity suddenly appeared, and Lu Ke had no reason to miss it. Even if it was ridiculous, even if it was funny, Lu Ke still took his feet and quickly moved forward along the gap in the slot.
From the corner of his sight, he could catch the panicked movements of the defensive players. Even his offensive teammates were caught off guard. The tense atmosphere suddenly became chaotic; at least two players rushed over like tigers descending the mountain, despite acting rationally. After making an accurate judgment and adjusting the center of gravity by half a beat, they could not catch up, but Lu Ke still ran with all his strength.
The starting position of the offense is the five-yard line, and the formation position is four yards behind the center. Therefore, the distance between Lu Ke and the end zone is nine yards.
Nine yards doesn't seem long, but it's actually not short either. In one second, everything changes on the court, and too many possibilities can happen; what's more, Lu Ke is now completely using his own shortcomings to attack the other's strengths. , the panic caused by that strange feeling, still couldn't help but start to flap its wings, as if thousands of butterflies were flapping their wings at the same time.
Therefore, Lu Ke did not take it lightly at all, and used his 71-point running skills with the ball to the extreme.
The kick was short and powerful, and the pace was fast and ferocious, as if this was not a nine-yard dash but a 100-meter sprint. He accelerated, accelerated again, raised his speed to the extreme of his ability, rushed into the end zone with a roar, and then He rushed out of the end zone again, until he reached the cushioning foam board on the sidelines, and then he stopped.
Touchdown, success!
From the perspective of the process, it is thrilling; but from the perspective of the result, it is easy. Lu Ke did not encounter any impact or tackle. It was like a tornado that came so quickly. The two players trying to complete the defense could only look at Lu Ke's back and let out a long sigh. The shock and confusion deep in their eyes still lingered. ——
What happened just now? Why does Lu Ke seem to be chased by ten wolf dogs?
The players on the Detroit Lions defense all slumped their shoulders and stood there at a loss. They had tried their best, but they didn't expect to lose the touchdown in such a way. This... this can't even be distinguished. , is the shame greater or the frustration greater.
The players of the San Francisco 49ers offensive team were also stunned for a moment, and then they saw Lu Ke's fleeing back, and an uncontrollable joy rushed to their faces, so they all laughed, because of the touchdown and because of This was a touchdown run by Lu Ke. This was definitely the biggest surprise of the game.
Standing outside the end zone, Lu Ke threw the football to the referee and cast a questioning gaze, "Was the touchdown just now legal?" There was no yellow flag foul or anything like that.
The referee did not speak, but made a gesture to confirm that the touchdown was successful in response.
The next moment, all the members of the San Francisco 49ers offensive team swarmed up, surrounded Lu Ke, and shouted in a fuss, "God, you madman, madman!"
Even Ted Ginn, who had just completed an incredible catch, was no exception. He hit Lu Ke's chest hard with his fist and couldn't help but sigh, "Jesus Christ." He thought he was crazy enough, but with Lu Ke In comparison, the rank is still not enough.
Standing in the crowd, Logan gently clenched his fists and shouted in a heavy bass, "Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!" This was obviously a pun, in addition to referring to Lu Ke's nickname In addition, he was still making fun of Lu Ke's running with the ball just now - isn't Bambi known for his flexibility and speed?
The other teammates understood immediately and started cheering, "Bambi!"
Standing in the center of the encirclement, Lu Ke felt real at this moment: he completed the touchdown with his legs. This feeling... is not excitement, nor excitement, but more subtle and indescribable.
The commentators sitting in the studio, even if they watched this scene over and over again, still couldn't help laughing and were filled with astonishment, "Well, what happened just now? What did we witness? Please tell me, I wasn't dazzled just now, right?" The San Francisco 49ers' rookie quarterback ran the ball for a touchdown, ran the ball into the end zone and scored a touchdown, right?"
Looking at the nagging Teddy, Kirk couldn't hold it back after all, and laughed happily, "Yes, you read it right, and the audience in front of the TV also read it right. Just now, Lu Ke completed the first milestone of his career. First running ball touchdown.”
Although during the game, Lu Ke repeatedly used his legs to advance at critical moments, especially the second week's game against the Dallas Cowboys, which was the most classic; there is no doubt that Lu Ke is a well-behaved traditional pocket quarterback. In fact, Lu Ke’s ability to run with the ball has always been the subject of jokes among commentators——
Just like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. The two elite quarterbacks' movements with the ball are also awkward and flustered, looking like tractors.
Who would have thought that Lu Ke would score a running touchdown today, which would break the deadlock on the field and possibly even determine the outcome. This sense of dissonance really makes people smile.
The game fell into an anxious state after the second half. Lu Ke unexpectedly broke the balance with a touchdown run by Lu Ke. At this time, the game was coming to an end. This subtle feeling of excitement and absurdity colliding with each other was really refreshing. .
"At the last moment of the game, the San Francisco 49ers scored a valuable touchdown and firmly took the initiative to win. Next, as long as they score the extra points, the pressure of the game will come... Wait, The 49ers' offense remained on the field and the special teams did not play. They chose two extra points. The San Francisco 49ers chose two extra points. They were ready to kill the game!"
The so-called two extra points means that after the team scores a touchdown, the offensive team lines up above the two-yard line in front of the end zone, completes the "touchdown" again, and the offensive team players hold the ball into the end zone. This way You can gain two points; but if you fail, there will be no additional points.
At this moment, the score on the field is "20:26", and there are 63 seconds left in the game.
This is a very simple arithmetic problem. Choose two extra points, first of all, the offense will be able to consume more game time regardless of success or failure.
Secondly, once successful, the score will become "20:28", which means that the opponent needs to complete a touchdown and two additional points in the remaining time, and the difficulty will increase exponentially; even if it fails, the score will be "20:26" will be maintained. Unless the Detroit Lions gamble on a long pass for the last time and complete the touchdown, the San Francisco 49ers will be invincible.
So, Jim Hubble boldly chose two extra points.
On the court, restless and exciting emotions were still surging in the air. Lu Ke could clearly feel that the eyes of the offensive team members were full of meaning. It can be imagined that after the game, these guys He will definitely not give up. This time he ran the ball for a touchdown and will probably become the target of ridicule for a long time to come.
But now, Lu Ke must concentrate and complete the two extra points.
That's the equivalent of having to score another red zone touchdown. The difficulty can be imagined.
Taking a deep breath, he methodically completed the tactical arrangement according to the coach's instructions, and then all the players quickly completed the formation.
After the members of the Detroit Lions' defense saw their opponent's formation, they couldn't help but start swearing: There was no change. The San Francisco 49ers continued the offensive formation from the previous touchdown, exactly the same, a perfect replica.
The opponent has not changed, but the Detroit Lions cannot remain unchanged. They must make adjustments, and they must be bold and radical adjustments. Now, the space left for them to win is getting smaller and smaller. In order to seize this glimmer of hope, they must give it a try, otherwise failure is the only result. More importantly, if they don't change now, maybe they won't have time to change. .
As a result, the linebacker slightly moved his position forward, assuming a powerful attack posture; at the same time, the safety guard and cornerback pressed forward slightly, further compressing the entire defensive space.
Standing in the pocket, Lu Ke was not anxious or anxious. He patiently read the defense, took in every detail of the entire defense, and then announced the kickoff.
After quickly retreating, Lu Ke still couldn't see many gaps in his sight. Even though the three linebackers were ahead of schedule, what followed was a rapid compression of the entire pocket, leaving Lu Ke room for observation. With a rapid contraction, the entire field of vision became bumpy and turbulent, and the omnipresent sense of oppression changed the situation on the field.
There is no gap. There is no passing gap, and there is no running gap.
But Lu Ke still remained patient, always paying attention to the linebackers on both sides who had to take advantage of their numerical advantage to overtake. At the same time, from the corner of his vision, he also saw a small pass in the middle area behind the end zone. window.
Lu Ke did not rush to pass the ball, but simulated the tactic of a short screen pass, using himself as the bait, deliberately waiting for the linebacker to break through the pocket, the defensive front to continue to press forward, and the backcourt defense to press forward. With a slight force, he threw the football in a high parabola and found Crabtree at the back of the end zone. At the same time, he moved back quickly to avoid the strong impact of the two linebackers.
When a player made a timely defense, Crabtree used his physical advantage to hold his opponent with his back, forcefully put the football into his arms, and then completed control of his feet, successfully completing the two-point conversion. .
The score on the field became "20:28", with twenty-seven seconds left before killing the game.
