(Girls’ Literature) “How about it, is it shocking?”
"...Is it like this every time?"
Facing Emma's basic question from a layman, Leonardo chuckled, "Of course not. It's just like a football match. Wait, you should know football, right?"
Emma is British, and football is more popular than rugby, and of course, more widespread. That's why Leonardo asked this question. If he explained it by analogy, things would be much easier.
After noticing Emma's slightly stunned jaw, Leonardo continued, "The final score of a football game may be a super low score like '0:0'. The same is true for rugby games. Scoring is actually not that easy. At the end of the day, it still depends on the status of the players and the progress of the game."
After a season of precipitation, Leonardo no longer knows anything about football. In addition to basketball, he also began to appreciate the fun of football. Today I chose to arrive at the scene to watch the game in person, on the one hand to support Lu Ke, and on the other hand to look forward to it.
Yes, Leonardo is also vaguely looking forward to the new season of the San Francisco 49ers.
"However, judging from the first wave of attacks just now, Lu Ke is in very good condition today, and the game will be very exciting." Leonardo said with a smile, seemingly unaware of the smell of gunpowder between Emma and Lu Ke, lightly He added with a smile, "It seems that you are lucky today and can enjoy a high-quality and exciting game."
Emma was speechless.
However, Leonardo is right about one thing. In this game, Lu Ke's condition is indeed outstanding!
…
The first wave of offense ended smoothly with a touchdown. Then, the special team led by David Akins scored the extra point without any suspense, bringing the score to "7:0".
The Detroit Lions offense led by Matthew Stafford came on the scene immediately, while the San Francisco 49ers defense led by Patrick Willis made a strong counterattack.
The Lions' star wide receiver "Megatron" Calvin Johnson became the key defensive target. 49ers cornerback Carlos Rogers teamed up with safety guard Darshan Goodson for personal marking, and on the first play after the opening During a wave of confrontations, Calvin's running route was completely blocked, forcing Stamford to choose other players as passing targets.
Unfortunately, the Detroit Lions' offensive team did not seem to be able to enter the state immediately. Although Calvin restrained two defensive players by himself, other offensive players were not able to take advantage of their numerical advantage.
A running ball hit the wall, an incomplete pass, and an almost interception. Before they could fully warm up, the first strikeout of the game occurred. The San Francisco 49ers defensive team sent their opponents off the court neatly. , once again won the opportunity for his offensive team to play.
Faced with such a good opportunity, the San Francisco 49ers offensive team, which had not had time to complete its warm-up just now, did not act in a hurry, but chose to continue to advance steadily.
With a short passing layout and a combination of passing and running, Lu Ke presented a completely different tactical arrangement and combination from the first wave. He passed the ball three times successfully out of four times and ran the ball three times. Unconsciously, he successfully got three first attacks; Immediately after a surprise pass, he found Vernon Davis in the zone defense. Relying on Vernon's size advantage, he forced the defensive player away and completed the pass.
At this point, they had already pushed past halftime.
The effect of the next two passes did not meet expectations. Faced with a situation of four yards on third gear, Lu Ke successfully passed the frontline defender with a fake fax and passed the football to Marcus. - Lynch.
Mike Rupatti and Jonathan Goodwin on the offensive line cleverly opened a gap and completed the work of opening the road!
After Marcus passed through the offensive line and defensive line, he faced the outflanking of two linebackers and forced his way into the narrow space on the right side of the slot.
At the critical moment, Logan completed a crucial pick-and-roll, knocked away Ndamkong's defense, and won valuable advancement space for Marcus. The momentum continued to advance; under the escort of two teammates, Vernon and Gene, not only successfully completed the third-speed and four-yard conversion, but also completed the advance in one go, and finally reached the end zone in one go. , scored another touchdown!
It was a thirty-eight-yard touchdown run!
In the new season, facing fierce competition for the running back position, Marcus, who is also facing "sophomore syndrome", has passed two consecutive outstanding performances and proved that he is still the well-deserved number one running back among the San Francisco 49ers. !
However, although it was Marcus who finally completed the touchdown in this offense, his teammates' pick-and-roll coverage is also irreplaceable.
Furthermore, in the previous offenses, the pass-run balance was always implemented, as well as the sudden attack of short passes combined with mid-range passes, which disrupted the rhythm and layout of the Detroit Lions defensive team step by step, facing the third gear and four yards. In this situation, he unexpectedly chose to run the ball instead of passing the ball——
Originally, Marcus was included in the third gear of offense. According to convention, Marcus was used as a slot receiver. But in reality, Marcus returned to his old profession and played as a running back. Identity pushed forward hard, ending the offensive confrontation and giving the home team another victory.
With Akens steadily hitting the extra point, the score on the field had already opened to "14:0"
Last season, the Detroit Lions' success in reaching the playoffs was based on offense. The wild card game against the New Orleans Saints was the most typical example. The game was tight in the first three quarters, but not in the fourth quarter. Being able to keep up with Drew Bruce's suddenly accelerated offense, they ultimately lost the game by a big score.
In other words, once the opponent's offense speeds up, Matthew Stafford fails to keep up with the rhythm, and his own defensive team cannot form effective resistance, then the Detroit Lions will fall into endless passivity.
Of course, there are only a handful of offensive teams in the entire league that have the ability to continue to speed up and apply pressure. This is just a theory.
However, the San Francisco 49ers are one of the teams with such ability.
After the opening kickoff, the 49ers' two offenses both ended in touchdowns. One was a super long pass and one was a super run. The powerful offensive momentum made the Lions lose their temper at all, tearing apart the defense in a devastating way. The defense line completed the offensive task lightly before the strong confrontation was formed.
Invisibly, Stafford's pressure to chase points is gradually increasing.
The first wave of offense ended with a strikeout. The second wave of offense was slightly better, but just barely pushed past half court. Then Stafford's 23-yard pass to Calvin was defended early. The team saw through the passing route——
Cornerback Carroll failed to block Calvin's position. In the one-on-one confrontation, Calvin, known as "Megatron", still had the advantage, but Carroll deflected the pass with his fingertips. Changing the flight path of the rugby ball, Dashan, who was standing nearby trying to defend, stretched out his hands under a conditioned reflex, and fished for the moon from the bottom of the sea, completing the interception like a juggling act.
The whole place was excited!
In the first wave of offense, the San Francisco 49ers scored a touchdown and the Detroit Lions struck out.
In the second wave of offense, the San Francisco 49ers scored a touchdown and the Detroit Lions encountered an interception.
The first quarter of the game slowly came to an end in the second half, but the Detroit Lions still failed to recover and seemed to be completely stunned by the San Francisco 49ers.
The only good thing is that after the interception, the San Francisco 49ers offensive team started attacking from their own 28 yards. However, there were two fouls and two turnovers in this wave of offense. The entire rhythm could not be fully continued and stumbled. The ball reached the forty-six-yard line in the opponent's half, and then unfortunately struck out.
At this time, there were nine seconds left in the first quarter.
At the 46-yard line, according to common sense, this should be a punt, because it is too far away from the goal. When the punt is over, the first quarter is over, and then we wait for the start of the second quarter.
But to everyone's expectation, Hubble sent a free kick team and chose to defend as a joke, with David Akins challenging the free kick.
A free kick attempt above the forty-six yard line, in other words, this is a sixty-three-yard free kick attempt.
As we all know, a free kick of more than fifty yards is considered an ultra-long-distance challenge. The longest range of many kickers may only be forty-five yards. Once it exceeds, it will begin to become dramatically unstable, and the success rate will show A sharp downward trend, which is the same as the quarterback's long pass.
But now it's a free kick over sixty yards?
Are you sure this isn't a punt? Is Jim Hubble sure he knows what he's doing? Now is not the critical moment of the fourth quarter, nor is it the key offense that determines the outcome. It was originally just a simple punt choice, but inexplicably chose to make a bold attempt to break the boat? What exactly is going on? Is Hubble sure he's not crazy?
In the history of the league, the historical record for the longest accurate free kick is jointly held by three players, namely -
Tom Dempsey of the New Orleans Saints in 1970, Jason Elam of the Denver Broncos in 1998, Sebastian Janikowski of the Oakland Raiders in 2011 (Sebastian-Janikoski).
The longest record is exactly sixty-three yards.
It is worth mentioning that Jason Allan and Sebastian Janikowski were both created at Mile Highlands Sports Authority Field, the home of the Denver Broncos.
It is the league's highest home court and is nicknamed the "One Mile Plateau." It is famous for its thin air and strong winds. When playing football, you may encounter strong winds and lose your standard, but you may also create miracles because of a favorable wind.
Today, David Akins is about to challenge the league record at Candlestick Stadium - tying the record for the longest free kick in history.
