The New England Patriots' defense is not a traditional strong player in the league. At critical moments, they still return to the most basic and best defensive methods; while the San Francisco 49ers offense has been the most watched dark horse in the league in the past two seasons. At critical moments, they Always dare to make bold tactical changes.
So, in this confrontation and change, will "change" have the upper hand, or "no change"?
The New England Patriots defensive team captured the changes in the opponent's formation, but they had no time to change because Lu Ke did not leave them time - seeing that the countdown to the game pause was about to end, Lu Ke did not hesitate any longer. , announced the kick-off immediately:
"attack!"
After the kickoff, Lu Ke, who was standing in the pistol formation, quickly completed a step-back adjustment and pretended to hand over, but immediately withdrew his right hand and stood in the pocket of the relatively stable offensive line. One scan completes the judgment.
Logan did not rush forward, but stood side by side with the offensive line. They jointly created a confrontation and dislocation of the opponent's defense, tearing a sunshine avenue in the middle. Marcus easily broke through the front line without spending any effort, and connected with the middle linebacker. Mayo was entangled.
Now, Marcus and Mayo are about six or seven yards away from the line of scrimmage. Marcus has vaguely opened a gap for receiving the ball; but Mayo pursues the ball and holds on tight.
Hall and Gene both broke through towards the deep area, not only making the two security guards alert, but also the cornerback and outside linebacker on the same side were mobilized at the same time. The two people's cross-changing runs have been created continuously before. He found a gap to receive the ball, and this time he attracted the attention of four defensive players without hesitation.
Finally, there's Moss.
After Moss rushed forward, a cornerback followed suit and defended. Another outside linebacker was also retreating quickly and moving. However, Moss did not push toward the deep area and only rushed out to about the ten-yard line. Suddenly, a After the emergency brake, the outside linebacker's footsteps continued to advance towards the deep area, and the two people were staggered like this.
At the same time, Moss swung his center of gravity toward the outside and changed his running route, forcing the defensive cornerback Kyle Ellington to change his center of gravity; then, seamlessly, Moss headed towards Advancing laterally towards the inner central zone, the entire speed gradually increased to the extreme.
With the misalignment of entry and exit, Ellington was completely unable to grasp the center of gravity. After the second start, although he was still not completely thrown away, the distance between the two people had widened to about three yards. That's enough for catching the ball.
With the knife in hand, Lu Ke's bullet pass instantly found Moss.
Moss just made an adjustment in his footsteps. There was no need to change his rhythm or posture. The football pushed at high speed was not affected by the breeze at all. It accurately entered Moss's hands to catch the ball and completed the ball steadily. At the same time, Moss's footsteps continued to sprint diagonally forward to the right, with almost no slowdown.
It was a fifteen-yard pass.
From passing to receiving, perfect connection.
After completing the ball, Moss continued to advance for about five yards before he was surrounded by three defensive players. Moss controlled his pace in time and tried to stop the advance, but Ellington followed closely. The short body hit Moss's ball-controlling right hand, and the football was knocked out unexpectedly.
However, this has no effect.
Controlling the rugby should be divided into two parts. The first is whether the rugby is accurately controlled at the moment of receiving the ball. If it is not controlled at this time and the rugby is knocked off, then the pass is incomplete; the second is After catching the ball, you control the football. During the continuous advancement, the football is knocked away by the defensive player. Then the pass is completed, but the advancement distance stops abruptly at the position where the ball is dropped, which is equivalent to completing a tackle and falling to the ground. .
Moss had clearly taken control of the football and completed the 12-yard conversion on third down without a doubt.
The seemingly extremely difficult third-speed long-yardage conversion was completed in an instant. It was so easy and simple. It seemed so to the audience, but it was not the case for the players standing on the court. It was obvious. Suddenly he noticed that Lu Ke's attention was back again, so he became more precise in controlling the details.
But Lu Ke did not relax at all.
He gave up the discussion process and kept waving his hands. The iconic seal wave appeared again, quickly pushing the entire offensive team's kickoff line forward twenty yards, from the twenty yard line to the forty yard line. There was no room to pause or breathe, and Lu Ke immediately announced the kick-off.
Facing a ten-yard situation, Lu Ke completed Brady's best trump card——
A quick kick and a quick release found Gene six yards to the right of the short pass area.
The New England Patriots defense didn't even have time to make further judgments on the running route of the receiving player. They just made a conditioned response based on instinct and position, and then Gene had already completed the ball. This is exactly the weapon that Brady has repeatedly been able to use to tear apart defenses at critical moments. Now it is used on the New England Patriots' defense, and it works equally well.
After Gene completed the ball, he quickly adjusted his steps slightly, then continued to advance along the space in the slot, and then advanced another three yards before he was surrounded by defensive players and was forced to fall to the ground.
But the San Francisco 49ers offensive team didn't care at all whether this push completed the first attack. Gene turned around and threw the football back to the referee, and then joined his teammates again and quickly completed the formation.
This is a conspiracy!
The reason why the so-called non-gathering attack is difficult to guard against is that it is a conspiracy. The offensive team has made it clear that its offense needs to speed up and will not choose too complex tactical combinations to further reduce the defensive team's deployment time and space. Then offensive efficiency and defensive efficiency are a test of hard power.
Now, the New England Patriots' defensive team is not in chaos for the time being. Relying on experience and experience, a group of veteran defensive players quickly completed the formation, while adjusting their breathing skillfully, and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the next wave of defense.
This is like a marathon battle. Both sides start to speed up and enter the anaerobic stage. Then it depends on who can be tougher, more durable, more patient, and more ruthless in the anaerobic stage. Whose rhythm can continue, then who You can have the last laugh.
Second gear and one code.
Lu Ke, who was standing in the "I" formation, quickly retreated and completed a cross-position swap with Gao Er, who had just taken the rotation. He made a fake pass, but then turned around, raised his right hand and started looking for the ball. Passing target.
Quarter beat. Another quarter beat.
Lu Ke's passing action obviously caused a chain reaction. He deliberately slowed down his shot speed. Seeing that the positions of the cornerback and safety guard had been pushed back by the receiving player, he saw that the defensive front and line The guard's continuous pressure had compressed the offensive line to the extreme, and the pocket began to be in danger. Then, Lu Ke made a move.
Instead of passing the ball, Lu Ke retracted his right hand, turned around, and threw the football to Gower, who was pulling laterally and outward.
Gall's position is still parallel to Lu Ke's, but he has just left the pocket. According to league statistics, this is running the ball rather than passing the ball.
Gall did not encounter any defensive force, easily completed the ball, and then started again, along the gap left after the outside receiver rushed forward, and continued to move forward with trivial steps and strong strength, one step, two steps, three steps, He then quickly crossed the line of scrimmage for the first down.
Immediately afterwards, the New England Patriots' No. 58 outside linebacker Tracy White rushed forward. The entire ground defense still maintained high-quality stability, but White's sprint seemed to be slightly slower by four points. In one beat, Gower shifted the center of gravity of the two people a quarter of a beat in advance.
White still hit Gower, but failed to hit solidly.
The small deviation in details gave Gower room to continue advancing. Following the direction of the impact force, he staggered two steps to the outside, and then the force of longitudinal straight forward burst out again, and he could see in the field of vision I saw the cornerbacks, safety guards and linebackers all rushing over in an attempt to complete the double team as soon as possible.
Gall made a rough prediction and immediately realized that his room for advancement was limited; without hesitation, he began to pull his steps towards the outside. With just two big steps, cornerback Ajib Talley Before Bu completed the tackle and impact, Gower had already left the field and successfully went out of bounds.
It advanced a total of seven yards before and after, and stopped the clock out of bounds, pausing the game time.
According to common sense, the most important reason for the non-gathering offense to increase the speed is to shorten the game time. However, if there is an official timeout or an out-of-bounds stoppage, the offensive team is still willing to temporarily stop and gather. After all, The offensive staff also needs some breathing time.
But today, Lu Ke did the opposite. Even though the game time was paused, they still did not gather for discussion, but quickly completed the formation, and then started to face the next first gear and ten yards again.
Such an abnormal move immediately made the New England Patriots defensive team scramble, and even a little irritated and angry. Originally, the rhythm of the defensive team could easily fall into the trap of the offensive team, but now they are completely led by their opponents. This feeling of frustration is really indescribable.
After a quick formation and quick kickoff, Lu Ke used two consecutive fake moves to pass the defensive team, and then the third pass was the real shot. The rugby ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and headed towards Speeding away from the end zone——
This is a fatal long pass!
"Oops!" The entire defensive team fell into tension and panic.
