madman.
This is the only thought in Schneider's mind right now.
In the next week's game, they are about to face the Pittsburgh Steelers, a top team comparable to the Baltimore Ravens. In the next few days, just the Steelers game video can no longer be seen. They must tighten up, No matter how tight you are, you go all out; but now, Lu Ke is watching the game video of the Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints?
This...are you sure you're not asking for trouble?
Looking up, Schneider saw Hachar's gaze, with the same helplessness in his eyes, and then Goodwin's voice came from beside him, "If you think Bambi is a madman, then I have no objection at all, he is A lunatic, a lunatic with a short-circuited nerve, but I strongly suspect that I am also crazy now."
The teasing voice made everyone laugh.
The corners of Lu Ke's mouth also raised, and he spread his hands, "Welcome to the Magpie's Nest." In the United States, the Magpie's Nest is considered a joking name for the lunatic asylum. The original English name of the classic movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" literally translates to "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" in English. .
Such frank self-deprecation allowed the laughter to continue again, and then Lu Kecai continued, "The Green Bay Packers are currently the highest-scoring team in the league; interestingly, they also lost the most yards and points. team, in other words, they rely on their strong offensive scoring ability to beat their opponents. In addition to Aaron Rodgers' top performance, their offensive line is also among the best in the league."
"As for the New Orleans Saints, I don't need to say more. They are the offense with the most yards in the league. Drew Brees is about to break the league's passing yardage record in the next two games. Their offensive line performed absolutely well, leaving enough room for Brees to pass the ball, even more consistently than the Packers."
The current single-season passing record in the league is retained by Miami Dolphins legend Dan Marino, with 5,069 yards. He is also the first quarterback in history to pass for more than 5,000 yards in a single season. His record is extremely strong.
Brees once approached such a record in 2008, but unfortunately, he lost to the Carolina Panthers in the last game of the regular season. In the end, the number of passing yards in sixteen games of the regular season was fixed at 5,053 yards, which was only 5,053 yards. With 16 yards left to set the record, he became the second quarterback in history to pass for more than 5,000 yards in a single season.
But this year, Brees is in even better shape. After only fourteen weeks of the regular season, his passing yards have reached 4,368, and his passing yards have exceeded 4,000 yards for four consecutive seasons; at the same time, he has passed 4,368 yards. In four consecutive games, he passed for more than 400 yards and scored five passing touchdowns, becoming the first quarterback in history to achieve such an achievement.
With such momentum, he only needs two games to break Marino's single-season passing yard record, and in the last week of the regular season, he will try his best to raise his historical record to an insurmountable height.
Brees was able to set a historical record, and the New Orleans Saints' offensive line is undoubtedly one of the important reasons. They provide solid and excellent pocket protection, and their overall performance level is more stable than the Packers.
In comparison, Rogers can run out of the pocket in a crisis situation. Even if the offensive line performance is slightly lower than expected, Rogers, who is in great condition, can still sweep away the army; while Brees, who lacks the ability to move outside the pocket, The reliance on the offensive line is even more obvious.
Both teams are teams that push their offense to the extreme.
In contrast, although the San Francisco 49ers' offensive performance this year was particularly good, after entering the second half of the season, they gradually fell behind the Packers and Saints; the same was true for Lu Ke's personal performance, and the two elite four The shooting guard slightly widened the gap with Lu Ke with his more stable and stronger performance.
Analyzing the games of other offensive groups is not to learn their tactics, but to refer to their reading and grasp of the game, as well as the execution of tactics, especially the cooperation between the offensive line and the quarterback.
If you want to grow into a top player, you must first understand how top players play. From the temperament of the game to the control of rhythm and even the adjustment of details, these are all important learning contents.
Lu Ke has been watching the game videos of Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers, which is a process of continuous learning; and now, Lu Ke also hopes that the offensive line can find a context, and they can watch the game videos together and learn together. improve together.
Schneider nodded in enlightenment, but he still seemed to understand. He didn't understand how to learn, but he knew that if Lu Ke could explain and teach, then he could learn it. Even if he can't learn it today, he can work overtime and study hard to keep up with the progress after he goes back.
"Adam, that's not all." Just when Schneider began to feel relieved, Goodwin dropped another bombshell and handed Schneider a stack of screenshots in his hand, gesturing for him to take a serious look, "This morning The learning content is Packers and Saints, that’s the afternoon portion.”
Schneider looked down: This is a screenshot of the Pittsburgh Steelers game video.
His facial expression had lost the ability to change. Schneider raised his head and looked at Lu Ke blankly, and then Lu Ke shrugged, "If you can't finish studying in the afternoon, there will be evening. If you can't do it today, there will be tomorrow. I just do it Just be prepared.”
The only thought in Schneider's mind right now is, "Did you complete all of this yesterday?"
"Oh, no." Lu Ke shook his head, "It was all completed on Sunday night. I briefly browsed and studied it yesterday, but I'm still not very familiar with the offensive line. Before, I was more familiar with the opponent's defense. , so let’s study together today.”
Schneider felt that his dislocated jaw would never be reinstalled. The only thought in his mind was: Doesn't Lu Ke need to sleep?
Lu Ke patted Schneider on the shoulder, "Remember, the league's No. 1 defensive team is our opponent next week. We can't take it lightly, and we don't have the capital to take it lightly. Even if we go all out, we may not be able to do it. Win the game. So, in order to reverse this disadvantage, we must work harder!"
After fourteen weeks of the regular season, the league's No. 1 defensive team is not the Baltimore Ravens, but the Pittsburgh Steelers.
In the previous matchup, the Baltimore Ravens, who had disoriented the San Francisco 49ers' offense and couldn't find their way, could only rank second in the league.
Judging from game data, the Ravens have a unique and huge advantage in raiding the quarterback, and their sack and quarterback impact data are far ahead of the league; but that's it, their defense of running the ball and passing the ball are both poor. There is no way to reach the extreme.
Even in the game where they defeated the San Francisco 49ers, they still lost a touchdown and a free kick, and at the last moment of the game, Lu Ke still had a chance to reverse the game.
But if it's the Steelers, it's a different story.
The team that allows opponents the fewest points per game, the Pittsburgh Steelers; the team that allows the opponent the fewest passing yards per game, the Pittsburgh Steelers; the team that allows the opponent's offense the fewest total yards per game, Pittsburgh Steelers; The team that allows the second fewest running yards per game, the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Among all the defensive team statistics, only the running ball is the only one. The Pittsburgh Steelers ranked second, and all other statistics were ahead; and, although the running ball data ranked second, the total yards of the offensive team were contained. The Steelers are still No. 1, which also means that in terms of pass defense, they have a huge advantage and absolute strength.
Facing such a Pittsburgh Steelers, even the Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints dare not take it lightly, let alone the San Francisco 49ers?
By the way, the San Francisco 49ers are the team that allows their opponents the fewest yards per game so far.
This is also the only statistic in which the 49ers lead the league. In terms of run defense and interception, the defensive team led by Patrick Willis, Navarro Bowman and Justin Smith contributed the best performance in the league.
The Pittsburgh Steelers, founded in 1933, are the fifth-oldest team in the league and are still the team that has won the most Super Bowls in the league.
They started out on defense, and they are known as the "Steel Curtain" throughout the league. On their way to winning the championship six times, they all relied on their defensive team to win. They have a long history of defense, and many people even think that they are the best in the league. Defensively, he was feared at his peak.
In history, the 1985 Chicago Bears are known as a desperate defensive team!
In addition to this, the Pittsburgh Steelers defensive team in the 1970s was invincible and truly established a dynasty. From 1972 to 1979, they entered the playoffs for eight consecutive years, reached the Super Bowl four times, and four Super Bowls. Winning the championship for the second time, his dominant performance found few opponents.
Although in recent years, due to the strong rise of Ben Roethlisberger, their offensive team has gradually begun to recover; but objectively speaking, in the two championships in 2005 and 2008, Ben was still not the protagonist, the defensive team was, they It is still the hopelessly powerful Iron Division.
Last year, the Pittsburgh Steelers made it all the way to the Super Bowl before losing to the Green Bay Packers, and they appear to be falling into a similar pattern this season.
Ben's performance has been ups and downs and has never been stable. At the same time, he is still suffering from injuries, and his performance is even more sporadic. They currently have a record of ten wins and three losses, and the score in five of the games is less than ten. Five points; but relying on the excellent performance of the defensive team, they can still defeat their opponents in low-scoring duels.
Moreover, compared to the Ravens, the Steelers' pass defense is unique in the league, the second-line defense is top-notch, and the cornerbacks, safety guards and linebackers' full coverage capabilities are frightening. In the next game, they and Lu Kezhi The head-to-head confrontation will directly determine the outcome of the game.
As Lu Ke said, the Steelers are definitely the 49ers' strongest competitor so far this season!
