"Amplification Halo: After use, the status of all members of the offensive team will be increased by 10%, lasting five minutes."
With five minutes left in the game, Lu Ke had already started to use it.
Because today's camp was full of injured soldiers, and because of today's stormy sea, Lu Ke realized that they must use more means to win this game. The zero-second kill in the tenth week of the regular season appeared once, and it almost didn't happen. It might happen a second time, so without any hesitation, Lu Ke used special skills and activated the amplification halo.
But the results were far less powerful than imagined.
Ten percent competitive status, this is not a very obvious improvement. What's more, the strength of the three players Kyle Williams, Brett Swain and Alex Benn still cannot keep up with the rhythm of the offensive team. Even if they improve by 10%, they are still limited.
It can be seen from the previous attacks that their advancement can still be completed, but they always lack a breath at critical moments. The lack of absolute hard power is not a gap that can be made up by the "amplification halo".
Now, Lu Ke can only pray that after the "Amplification Halo" is turned on, as time goes by, the effect will be improved step by step, and the tacit understanding of the offensive team will gradually work out. When the final desperate move is made, it can burst out far beyond 100 points. 10 out of 10 skill effects.
Now, the game has come to an end, with twenty-three seconds left. Success or failure, it depends now!
Ten yards in first gear.
The New York Giants defense did not retreat, but chose to press forward. This is an unexpected but reasonable choice.
The four defensive forwards are all completed and are on the first line; the three linebackers behind him stand in a zigzag shape, two in front and one behind; the two cornerbacks, one on the left and one on the right, are basically on the same position as the linebackers, with a slight gap from front to back; one The safety stood parallel to the lone linebacker; the last safety was a full fifteen yards behind, alone.
Overall, there are four players on the first line, four players on the second line, and two players on the third line. The distance between these three lines is only about two to three yards; the fourth line is only One player, extremely lonely, ended up at the end.
It can be clearly seen that the entire defensive formation was pressed very hard in front, bursting out with an unstoppable momentum. Instead of investing in long-pass defense, it attacked the quarterback without leaving any gaps for passing the ball. The top and bottom revealed a strong momentum of determination to win.
Clearly, the New York Giants learned their defensive lesson from the final moments of Week 10 of the regular season and will not take it lightly. Even if it's only twenty-three seconds. The game has truly entered the stage where the bayonet is seeing red. A slight flash of thought may have ruined the game.
"attack!"
Lu Ke did not hesitate or be timid. He made a prompt decision and announced the kick-off.
The moment he caught the ball with both hands, he immediately stepped back to distance himself. Then you could see the New York Giants making a feint and sending only four defensive forwards to launch a surprise attack. All the other players who were pressing forward quickly retreated, and the entire retreating defensive team The action is very determined, which also means that from the beginning, this is not a surprise tactic, but a pass defense tactic, but a maze.
Lu Ke completely cleared his mind and showed no distractions. He showed the general demeanor of a top quarterback. The troops came to block him and the water came to cover him. According to the opponent's defensive strategy, Lu Ke quickly took two steps back and quickly opened up his field of vision. All five of his receiving players are in full view.
On the left, Swain and Vernon were advancing quickly in a straight line, sprinting out a far-reaching route. They tried their best to increase their speed to the extreme, running towards the half-court direction without hesitation, running a simple and neat route. A wave of air was set off, forcing the defensive players to retreat quickly.
On the right side, Logan and Williams both rushed toward the boundary, but their running routes were different. Williams chose a short pass area route, and after rushing out of eight or nine yards, he immediately did He adjusted his steps and turned around to catch the ball; Logan chose a deep area route and rushed forward along the right side. After rushing for fifteen yards, he broke into the boundary with an outside shot.
Marcus, who was on the right side of the slot, made full use of his flexible footsteps. After rushing out along the slot, about five or six yards, he immediately adjusted his steps and cut in towards the central zone, and then continued Rushing forward, without warning, he suddenly turned a corner and sprinted straight towards the left boundary, seemingly ready to catch the ball and go out of bounds.
Five players, five routes.
I don’t know if it was Lu Ke’s illusion, but the cumulative effect of the “Amplification Halo” seems to have really become clear. The running route has become significantly clearer. Even the running of Swain and Williams completely fit in his mind. The ideas in it seem to give a new glimpse of the team's varied offensive arrangements and combinations that allow them to gain a foothold.
But the problem is that the New York Giants sent seven defensive players to cover, three on the left and four on the right.
The absolute advantage in numbers is an insurmountable barrier. Now Lu Ke's only expectation is that in the aura of growth, route running and matchup advantages can create gaps as soon as possible, but the gap in absolute strength still seems unable to make up for the number of people. inherent disadvantages.
There is no passing gap! There is no passing gap at all!
Lu Ke caught Marcus out of the corner of his sight. This was the only gap.
But Marcus is restrained by the short pass area. He still has at least fifteen yards of space from the left boundary. Calculated in terms of time consumed and yards advanced, this is not a cost-effective pass. The Giants defense team did not Falling for the trick, no players were sent to contain Marcus.
Although regretful, Lu Ke could not take action.
Just then, the pocket burst!
Alex Boone's position was unable to withstand the continuous impact. Due to the lack of passing gaps, Lu Ke held the ball slightly longer, nearly three seconds, and then Boone lost his position and attacked. The forward's pockets were torn. As the saying goes, a thousand-mile embankment is destroyed by an anthill. When the first hole appears, the entire embankment falls apart.
Only then did Lu Ke realize that he had held the ball for too long, and even the effect of the amplification halo was not omnipotent; the offensive line's pocket protection completely collapsed, and Lu Ke had no time to hesitate or think.
While retreating and observing, Lu Ke could clearly see the defensive player rushing towards him from the right. He didn't need to sense it, because the opponent's huge body rushed over like a black bear. He could only run horizontally towards the left in embarrassment. He took two steps to pull the opponent's running center of gravity, then fired a carbine and rushed diagonally forward to the right.
First left and then right, a seemingly simple running route, but he successfully avoided the crisis.
In an emergency, even without special skills, Lu Ke's pocket running steps still showed solid basic skills, but he still lacked the ability to fight.
Then, Lu Ke took two consecutive steps, raised his right hand, and quickly waved his arm, and the football was sent out. The passing target is clearly
Logan!
Logan, who was running quickly along the right side, rushed fifteen or sixteen yards before turning a corner and quickly pulling horizontally towards the border area. When he was about to approach the border, he made another ninety-degree right-angle turn. He started to advance in a straight line close to the border, increasing speed, increasing speed, and increasing speed. For three full seconds, Logan was running obliviously, and his feet were almost on fire.
He rushed across the center line in one go and was about to approach the 40-yard line in the opponent's half. Then he turned around and saw the football parabola passed by Lu Ke.
While continuing to move forward, he adjusted in small steps. The football was getting closer and closer. The speed suddenly increased. Logan turned slightly sideways and was ready to catch the ball.
Just when the football was about to fall into his chest, a defensive player jumped into the air like a dragon and intercepted the connecting path between Lu Ke and Logan; at the same time, another defensive player He rushed forward from behind and hit Logan's shoulder hard with his shoulder.
"Pass not completed!"
Kirk's strangled exclamation came from the studio, "Almost, just a little bit. In the attack just now, the connection between Lu Ke and Logan almost made a contribution to the team again, but it's a pity that What’s amazing is that at the last moment, the passing rhythm was still slightly slower by a quarter of a beat, and the Giants’ defensive players successfully joined forces to complete the defense before the pass was completed!”
"Seventeen seconds, there are still seventeen seconds left in the game."
The entire stadium was suffocated, and even the sounds of breathing and wind had completely disappeared. Seventeen seconds is not enough time for one tactical arrangement, but the San Francisco 49ers are still standing on their own 16-yard line. Even if Lu Ke wants to try a Hail Mary, it is still impossible.
The heartbeat suddenly stopped.
…
Ten yards in second gear.
Lu Ke stared at the teammates in front of him. Because the pass was not completed just now, they had twenty-five seconds to make tactical arrangements.
This time, Lu Ke didn't talk nonsense. He just conveyed his unmoved determination with his eyes, and then quickly conveyed Hubble's tactical instructions and kept waving his palms, "Press forward. Be firm and don't worry about the pockets in the back. We must press forward resolutely when running the route, and we must create a momentum of courage! That’s it!”
He needs to calm down and temporarily put aside the effect of the amplifying aura's skills, and also temporarily put aside the differences between Swain and Williams. He cannot be restrained in arranging tactics, he must give it a try!
After the tactics were laid out, Lu Ke clapped his hands, and without collective support, they completed the formation again.
This time, it was obvious that the New York Giants defense began to retreat. Because Lu Ke had just shown his decisive long pass courage and ability. A long pass of 40 yards was almost successful. The pressure on the defensive team suddenly increased. There was no need for them to play any more tricks and simply gave up. Raid the quarterback and focus all efforts on long pass defense.
As a result, the defensive formations fell apart.
The formation in front of me can be regarded as a... bucket formation? A bucket formation designed to defend long passes?
