"attack!"
In the silent Candlestick Stadium, Lu Ke's voice burst out with powerful force. In an instant, the entire offensive team was like a cheetah, rushing forward quickly and ferociously. The cheers from the entire stadium instantly erupted, and the Candlestick Stadium was filled with enthusiasm. The passion/emotion was not really released until this moment!
Lu Ke caught the football with both hands, stepped back and turned left without any pause. He didn't even have time to exhale before taking his first breath. He completed the pass as soon as he raised the knife and dropped it. This is A bullet-like straight pass to the left, mixed with the force of splitting the air, broke through and arrived in an instant.
Crabtree sprinted head-first without any tricks or changes. He knocked away the defending Greer with his shoulder. When he turned around, he could see the fast-spinning football, setting off a wave of air, and accurately It landed near the chest, made a catching gesture with both hands, and then completed the catch neatly.
This is a six-yard short pass diagonally forward from the left!
After Crabtree completed the ball, he leaned against Greer and used the opponent as a support point. He borrowed strength from the collision of his shoulders, kicked off his toes, and then exerted force a second time, cutting across the inside without any traces. Without a doubt, he knocked Greer away and continued to advance——
For reference, Crabtree is 215 pounds (98 kg) and Greer is 180 pounds (82 kg).
Greer staggered two steps and completely lost his position, but his defensive instinct still pulled Crabtree's jersey tightly. Yellow flag in!
Unfortunately, Greer had lost the opportunity. Crabtree sprinted to accelerate, and with a powerful dash, he immediately shook off Greer's pull, and then pushed forward.
However, Greer's pull still succeeded in winning a moment of space and bought time for his teammates. Two linebackers and a safety guard in the middle area quickly formed a circle. Crabtree dodged a tackle. After the hug, he was still hugged firmly by the two players. After he pushed forward one to two yards forcefully, he fell to the ground exhausted.
What's a little frustrating is that if Crabtree crosses to the outside, it will be a smooth road. Except for safety guard Harper, it will be difficult for other players to complete the defense in a short time; but Crabtree's tough On the run, he easily gained eight yards after the catch, gaining a total of fourteen yards.
Because the advancement effect far exceeded the yardage of the yellow flag penalty, Hubble rejected the yellow flag penalty. The attack continues.
"Beautiful! This tactical design is so beautiful!"
"The San Francisco 49ers have stocked two tight ends and one wide receiver on their right wing, and the three players are the three best receiving performers on the team this season, which makes the entire tactical center move towards the right side. It was tilted, but the moment the pass was released, it turned to the left wing, using the big receiver and the cornerback to form an advantage, and easily completed the first attack!"
"Moose" Johnston nodded repeatedly and commented in the most concise sentences. He was obviously very satisfied with the rookie quarterback's first tactical layout and execution; Kirk also agreed and further added.
"The most interesting part is that Lu Ke stood in the running formation. He did not step back or adjust his footsteps. Instead, he made full use of the extremely narrow kick-off space, passed the ball quickly, and shot in 1.14 seconds. The speed is only 1.14 seconds, which is as fast as lightning. The ball has been successfully received before the matchup is completed, and then the opponent takes advantage of the matchup and continues to advance!"
After a quick analysis, Kirk couldn't help but exclaimed, "Wow, in today's divisional match, our rookie quarterback doesn't look frightened at all! This is a positive sign."
While the conversation in the studio was going on, there was no pause on the court. Lu Ke quickly kicked off again and turned around and handed the football to Marcus.
Then you can see Jonathan Goodwin and Mike Rupadi pushing quickly towards both sides, just like pushing open the heavy gates of the Forbidden City, pushing away the bustling crowd, and the offensive line is opened. A small gap.
Before the linebackers on the defensive team had time to gain a firm foothold, a small figure appeared in their sights. It moved lightly with its steps. It crossed sideways across the Chuhehan boundary formed by the offensive line and the defensive line, and stepped forward. The head protects the football, constantly breaking away, hitting and moving forward among the dense crowd.
The central block of the short pass area was the hardest hit area. Three linebackers and one safety guard gathered here. The four players reacted immediately and rushed forward collectively, surrounding Marcus. They watched Marcus was about to get tackled, but a miracle happened.
A heavy shoulder impact, a turn to escape, a high-leg jump, and a diving forward. Marcus used all his martial arts skills to dodge tackles again and again in the dense crowd, becoming unstoppable. The momentum continued to rush forward, just like a shark breaking into a school of sardines, which was spectacular.
"Get off the tackle! Turn around, get off the tackle again! Wait, the third time! God, the Saints defense missed three tackles in a row, Marcus Lynch is unstoppable! Lynch is pushing! Lynch! Lynch! Odd! Wow, even Harper who was on defense finally knocked off Lynch's center of gravity, forcing Lynch to fall to the ground and ending this twelve-yard advance!"
"Wonderful! This strong run was so exciting! The Saints' running ball defense made a mistake again and let go of a big advance of 12 yards in one breath! What happened just now? In the brief moment of watching the video replay, The 49ers offense seemed to have seized a good opportunity again and got the second first down with a run!"
…
With the easy success of two consecutive attacks, Lu Ke did not get carried away, but calmed down more and more.
Before the second kickoff, Lu Ke, who was reading defensively, keenly captured a small detail. Although the Saints defensive team had completed their formation, the linebackers and defensive frontmen were communicating tactics, and their eyes met. There is no complete defensive posture, which means that the opportunity has come.
Therefore, Lu Ke chose to kick off quickly and handed the football to Marcus without any hesitation, letting him find the rhythm and feeling of running the ball. Even if the ball running effect is mediocre, there is no loss. It can change the rhythm, contain the opponent, and change the tactical combination.
Unexpectedly, the effect is amazing!
Obviously, the linebackers failed to grasp their center of gravity, and their feet and lower body were unable to stand firmly. Marcus's explosive power in short distances was absolutely strong. He knocked all the linebackers away during the collision and dodged three tackles. , successfully got the first attack!
Almost as soon as he completed the formation again, Lu Ke caught the change in the opponent's defensive formation: the gap between the defensive front and linebackers was widening, and the cornerbacks were also positioned slightly further back. Although it is only a small adjustment of about two or three steps, the entire defensive formation is spreading out.
It can be understood that when the defensive formation is compressed, the intensity of run defense and surprise attacks is greater, further compressing the confrontation space on the front line; while when the defensive formation is spread out, the investment in pass defense (pass defense) is greater, and at the same time The space to prevent running is also increased.
The tactical arrangement and combination in his brain was extremely clear, and he made a decision in an instant. With a step forward, Lu Ke gave up the strategy of consecutive quick kicks, but boldly changed the tactics temporarily, and then he could see Fu Fu on the right. Nong Davis and Logan Newman both made quick lateral moves to the left.
Repeat the same trick!
However, this time it was reversed. All the receiving power on the right side was accumulated on the left side. Now only Ted Ginn was left on the right side; this also forced the Saints defensive team to make adjustments accordingly. Both linebackers and a safety moved towards the heavily stocked side, but after learning the lessons of the first offense, the cornerback who stayed on the right slightly adjusted his defensive position and was fully prepared. .
Meanwhile, Harper was shouting, "Back off! Back off!"
The 49ers' offensive pace was so fast that the communication between the defensive players was not accurate, and they had to complete further dialogue on the spot.
But Lu Ke didn't leave them much time and space, "Attack!"
Unexpectedly, the entire offensive team was scattered - including the offensive line. Everyone moved quickly diagonally to the left. The completely disrupted offensive formation completely confused the Saints defensive team: Those four points Where is Wei? Is there no one left to protect the quarterback? What about passing the ball?
In the chaos, the defensive front members could clearly see Lu Ke turning quickly, stepping quickly, raising his hand and throwing the football to Marcus.
Running the ball? Is this actually a running tactic? After arranging such complicated receiver positions, he still chose to run the ball?
The offensive linemen and linebackers, who originally thought it was pie in the sky, were instantly panicked. They were running wildly towards the quarterback and had to brake urgently and start following Marcus's footsteps. However, after just a short pause, they The opportunity had already been lost, and the entire stadium was in chaos!
In the chaos, Marcus' attention was focused as never before.
A horizontal pull on the left side, a slight adjustment of his steps, and he caught a defensive player rushing forward with his peripheral vision. With a sudden movement of his center of gravity, Marcus had already dodged the opponent's tackle path, and then his calf suddenly started to move. With force, he sprinted like an arrow from the string, increasing his speed, and then increasing his speed.
A broad avenue to the sky appeared in front of him.
On the right, two white figures were approaching quickly, but the scattered offensive line rushed forward immediately, and their strong collision blocked all the waves like a dam.
On the left, three defensive players sprinted over from directly in front and diagonally in front. Then the three red figures of Logan, Crabtree and Vernon rushed forward one by one. All it took was the simplest collision. Buying a moment is enough.
After sprinting a short distance, his speed increased to the extreme. Marcus was like riding on a hot wheel, whizzing by vigorously. In just a blink of an eye, he had already passed through the layers of heavily defended areas, heading towards the far end. The area is advancing rapidly!
