In the first half of the confrontation, the offensive teams of the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks both showed sufficient ability, playing steadily and gradually, and did not appear in the embarrassing situation of striking out as soon as they came on the field; moreover, the two teams took turns to play. The team has realized their desire to take away points every time they play.
Therefore, the game time is consumed very obviously. When the Seattle Seahawks scored another free kick, the first half timeout had passed, leaving only the last minute and 23 seconds of the game for the San Francisco 49ers.
A mere eighty-three seconds!
The only good thing is that the 49ers still have three timeouts.
Lu Ke, who played for the fourth time in today's game, started with a shotgun formation and continuously demonstrated his strong control ability in short-passing offense. The two sidelines were in full bloom, and he was always able to open loopholes in tight defenses. , find the passing target——
Richard Sherman, who has attracted much attention because of his talk, is still stuck in the rookie barrier and suffers from positioning errors. Logan Newman and Vernon Davis constantly switch positions, and they will be close to each other. The secret of the end-forward tactics is vividly explained, taking turns to switch positions and take turns to attack the cornerback.
Facing two tight ends with very different styles, it was difficult to take advantage of their size, and it was difficult to find a rhythm when stuck. Sherman was really tired of dealing with it. He repeatedly lost his position and could only watch the San Francisco 49ers succeed again and again. Push forward, while also being able to successfully get out of bounds and control the game time.
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, who was standing on the sidelines, could no longer bear to watch. He replaced Richard Sherman with Philip Adams and adjusted his tactics.
Accumulating heavy troops in the short and intermediate passing areas, two Pro Bowl-level safeties Cam-Chancellor and Earl-Thomas also moved their positions in advance to further compress the defense. space, apply more pressure and deny the opponent a chance to advance.
Lu Ke, who opened up the situation with consecutive short passes and intermediate passes, let go of his hands and feet. In a tactic of fake running and real passes, he adjusted the incident angle of the pass at the moment of release, raising the arc high and passing the ball. He made a stunning rainbow ball and once again performed his famous stunt in the first week of the regular season.
The football flew across the half court vigorously, and after advancing a full 43 yards, it found Ted Ginn, who was constantly changing routes and speeds. Under the constant harassment and defense of safety guard Chancellor, Ginn He completed the catch unmoved, but unfortunately failed to continue advancing and then fell to the ground. Chancellor successfully completed the tackle.
Despite this, this long pass still dealt a fatal blow to the Seahawks defense. The 49ers once again advanced into the red zone and reached the nine-yard line, scoring a touchdown on the first gear.
In the next red zone defense, the Seahawks defensive team showed an excellent toughness, toughly defending the first and second offense, and forced the 49ers to use up two timeouts and scored a touchdown on the third offense. In this situation, the 49ers had to face a four-yard advance, and the dawn of hope was already waving.
But then, it was Marcus Lynch.
Lu Ke chose to hand the football to Marcus. The latter made a strong sprint, then braked suddenly, made a 90-degree right-angle turn, broke through from the side, and faced the outside linebacker rushing towards him, Marcus made a hurdle-like movement. , passed over the opponent's head, and rolled like a panda after landing in the end zone.
Another touchdown.
At the end of the first half, the San Francisco 49ers once again gave the Seattle Seahawks a head-on blow at home. They made a long pass and ran the ball. They completed the touchdown neatly and then used the timeout to successfully kick the ball. After the extra points were scored, the score came to "13:28", further widening the gap between the two sides.
Then, the first half of the game ended.
What is certain is that today's game is far from the first week of the regular season. The Seahawks are no longer the same Seahawks team, but the 49ers are no longer the 49ers. The confrontation between the two sides is up to you. There is a lot of gunpowder in my mind, but the overall lineup is still on the side of the 49ers, who have been incredible this season.
During the intermission, the Century Chain Stadium became a sea of cheers and support. The twelve people were still not discouraged, let alone gave up. The mighty shouts changed slogans, one after another, and continued to cheer for the home team. Fifteen The points gap can still be reversed in the second half of the game, and it is far from the end of the world.
When it comes to the madness and enthusiasm of the fans, the twelve players are indeed among the best in the league.
However, the course of the third quarter was destined to disappoint the home fans.
When the buzzer sounded in the second half, the Seattle Seahawks were the first to attack. Amid the cheers from the home court, Travis Jackson's first pass was intercepted!
"Justin Smith! Justin Smith completed the interception! The San Francisco 49ers' No. 94 defensive end continued his wonderful performance this season, successfully intercepted the opponent's quarterback's pass, and picked off the football with one hand , Travis Jackson’s passing route was completely seen through, and Justin Smith stood on the passing route and successfully intercepted!”
After entering the Cincinnati Bengals as a first-round pick in 2001, Justin Smith's career has always been tepid, and his performance has fallen far short of expectations.
In 2008, he transferred to the San Francisco 49ers, and the defensive end took on a new lease of life. In the same year, he became the 49ers' season MVP. He was subsequently nominated for the Pro Bowl for two consecutive years in 2009 and 2010, becoming One of the top defensive ends in the league.
This season, No. 94's performance is still wonderful, and he can be called the absolute leader on the 49ers defensive front. Today, Justin received his first interception of the season and the third interception of his career - because he is not a player who is good at interceptions to begin with, and is mainly good at running the ball defense and attacking the quarterback.
"Wait, it's not over yet! Justin Smith is returning the ball! God! The Seattle Seahawks' offense was completely in chaos. Smith found a gap. The 49ers' No. 55 outside linebacker Ahmed- After Brooks knocked away a sure-fire tackle, Smith successfully broke through!"
"Smith! Smith! Under the cover of his teammates, Smith made a passage!"
"God! Oh, God! What the hell happened! What happened on the field! Unbelievable! This is absolutely unbelievable! The San Francisco 49ers defense scored its first interception return touchdown of the season! Touchdown, the 49ers scored a touchdown again! But this time, it was not from the offense, but from the defense! Wow!"
In an instant, the entire Century Chain Stadium was at a loss, and their eyes were full of confusion. Even though the 49ers offense scored four touchdowns in the first half, even though the Seahawks were always behind to catch up, even though the fierce competition was always at a disadvantage, they never suffered a blow and were still full of confidence until Now.
What happened just now?
On the edge of the court, Lu Ke and all his teammates on the offensive team and the special teams team raised their hands high and celebrated for their teammates wantonly. They were even more cheerful and joyful than the offensive team's touchdown. This kind of crazy celebration sound also more and more brings out the silence and depression of the Century Chain Stadium at this moment.
But then the twelve people woke up again, and the boos and curses surged overwhelmingly. The Century Chain Stadium, which can accommodate 69,000 spectators, was like an angry beast, easily overpowering the visiting team's celebrations. It was swallowed into the stomach, and the sky was full of boos, which could not be heard without stopping.
However, after all, the twelve people are only the twelve people off the court, not the twelve people on the court. After all, they cannot give more direct help to the home team.
After the defensive team scores a touchdown, the game process is the same as the offensive team scoring a touchdown.
The scoring team's special teams team comes on to complete the extra point, and then the scoring team kicks off the ball, and the losing team receives the ball and returns the ball.
In other words, after David Akins came on the field and kicked the extra point, the score was rewritten to "13:35"; then after completing the kickoff, the Seahawks' offense and the 49ers' defense joined hands again Come on stage and start a duel.
There is no doubt that the Seattle Seahawks are now standing on the edge of the cliff, precarious. It seems that everything is different from the first week of the regular season, but everything seems to be familiar. Now, the Seahawks need a touchdown, and free kicks are no longer enough. They need a quick touchdown, racing against time and fighting against their opponents. Only by narrowing the score gap as soon as possible can the suspense of the game be maintained.
But the reality is always like this. The more anxious you are, the more panic you will have, and the more irritable you are, the more mistakes you will make.
After only two first downs, the Seahawks offensive team hurriedly ushered in the first strikeout of the game. Not to mention the touchdown, there was no free kick now.
Immediately afterwards, the San Francisco 49ers offensive team came on the scene again, but obviously, Lu Ke still had no intention of stopping. He was still firing on all cylinders. Facing a big lead, his passing became more bold, bold, and adventurous.
During a short screen pass attack, when Vernon and Logan had already formed a matchup advantage, Lu Ke found a gap and used a bullet pass to find Gene, who had a deeper route, and gave up the short pass. Instead, he chose a long pass. The 22-yard pass was so fast that it was almost intercepted by Earl Thomas.
But Lu Ke's passing speed was too fast. Thomas failed to keep up with the rhythm. He just touched it, but still missed it. Instead, Jean, who was well prepared, rushed over at the critical moment and completed the catch in mid-air. The ball was pushed forward without any danger.
It can be seen that not only Lu Ke, but also the wide receivers and tight ends are in good condition now. And the running back can’t be forgotten.
One minute and 48 seconds after this risky pass was successful, Marcus Lynch scored his third touchdown of the game!
