"Aow! Aow... Aow... Aow!"
Vernon Davis slammed the football onto the grass in the end zone, and then roared to the sky like a wolf, venting the boredom for most of the season and celebrating the touchdown after a long time. And the hot emotions are rolling in the chest. This moment when the long sword is unsheathed and the throat is sealed with one sword, it makes people's blood boil!
I miss moments like this in my bones.
Gene and Logan, who entered the end zone early to help with the pick-off, rushed over immediately and slapped Vernon's helmet, shoulders and back vigorously, celebrating this time in an extremely fierce and fierce way. Not an easy touchdown.
After experiencing the separation in the middle of the season, the ups and downs at the end of the season, and the in and out of the receiving team throughout the season, they have finally found their own rhythm and method again——
Logan couldn't suppress his excitement at all and yelled crazily at Vernon, "Are we?"
"Nine people!" Vernon clasped his hands and shouted selflessly at Logan in response.
"Are we?" Gene, who was standing next to him, roared unwillingly, his veins bulging.
"Warrior!" The three people shouted at the same time and in unison.
Passion and excitement began to flow in the boiling blood, and then Crabtree and other offensive linemen also chased after him, celebrating the touchdown with Vernon. This is not only a touchdown, but also declares that Vernon's state has officially recovered. For the San Francisco 49ers who are stretched at the receiving position, it is of great importance!
The three of them roared feverishly at their teammates; and their teammates roared back in perfect agreement.
"We are! Nine!"
"We are! Warriors!"
Over and over again, everyone could not help clenching their fists and tightening their muscles, releasing all the power deep in their Dantian. The deafening sound firmly united the entire offensive team, with the belief in victory and the desire to move forward. Persistence burst out again, spreading like ripples in the Candlestick Stadium.
One after another, all the fans and spectators in the audience began to shout, jumping, roaring, boiling and trembling. The powerful shock penetrated the shackles of the TV screen and boiled and rolled throughout the entire city of San Francisco. , people can't help but want to be an insignificant part of it.
It was a force that made people burst into tears and worship. Just by responding softly, the soul began to tremble slightly.
At this moment, the San Francisco 49ers in front of me are so moving, so beautiful, so real and so dreamy, that I fall in love in an instant, even if it burns my own soul, the only thought in my mind is I just want to open my arms, blend into that boundless vast red ocean, and become a part of it.
Even Matt Ryan stood on the edge of the court, with a hint of envy in his eyes. The reason why Candlestick Stadium is called the Devil's home stadium is not because of how loud the noise is, nor how crazy the fans are, but because of the soul condensed in the stadium, which is clear and transparent, pure and fanatical, persevering and tough, and is always burning. With.
Such an opponent is really too scary.
Matt Ryan let out a breath, I am afraid that the difficulty of this game will be beyond imagination. Although they still had the advantage, things were still not as simple as imagined.
…
David Akins came on the scene. Akins' extra-point efficiency this season is still 100%. His steady and focused control has witnessed the energy of the veteran. This time is no exception. After he successfully scored the extra-point, The score on the court changed to "14:24", and the point difference narrowed to within ten points.
After the Atlanta Falcons offensive team debuted again, it can be clearly noticed that the intensity and rhythm of the San Francisco 49ers defensive team have been improved again.
This feeling is very strange, just like being in the stormy waves of the vast ocean. The waves are one after another. It is impossible to judge the specific situation with the naked eye, but the feeling is being suppressed bit by bit, but it is not clear what the specific situation is. Is it because the momentum of the wave is increasing, or is it because my spirit is getting tired and I have lost my resistance, but I am sure that my fighting spirit and courage are slowly being weakened.
Matt Ryan is still gritting his teeth and persisting. The outstanding performance of Julio Jones, Tony Gonzalez and Roddy White is continuing their offensive. Although the head-on confrontation is getting stronger and stronger, they still persist in the end. Next, with twenty-four seconds left before the end of the first half, the offensive team reached the 27-yard line in the opponent's half, but unfortunately suffered a strikeout.
This is the second time since the start of this game that the Atlanta Falcons have suffered a strikeout.
Ryan stood there panting like an ox, looking unwillingly at the defensive team on the other side who was celebrating wantonly - on the last defense, they cut off all possibilities of the offense by sacking the quarterback, forcing the Falcons to face With the 12-yard problem in fourth gear, there is no point in taking risks at this time. A free kick is the only option.
After thinking over and over, Ryan still hit his right fist hard on his left palm, venting his dissatisfaction, then turned and left the court.
Facing a 44-yard free kick, kicker Matt Bryant made no mistake. Amid the fierce confrontation between the special teams, he kicked the football into the goal. Before the end of the first half, the football was kicked again. The Atlanta Falcons opened the score for the away team.
"14:27".
The 13-point gap is still a score difference that requires two touchdowns to complete the lead. There are still countless possibilities in the second half.
Throughout the entire first half of the game, the Atlanta Falcons entered the state very quickly and gave their best performance of the season from the offensive end to the defensive end. The performance of the offensive team was especially eye-catching, winning in just half the game. Twenty-seven points was indeed the most points scored in a game all season.
The San Francisco 49ers, on the other hand, were a little slow to start, and seemed a little over-excited to enter the National League Finals for the second consecutive year. Compared with the first quarter, the quality of the second quarter has been substantially improved. The offensive team's strong control in the second quarter is regaining the initiative bit by bit.
It can be clearly noticed that the San Francisco 49ers are showing a rapid upward curve, while the Atlanta Falcons maintain a relatively stable development posture. However, entering the second half of the second quarter, the Falcons are slowly being suppressed and are almost gasping for air. Suffocating, if it lasts a little longer, the 49ers may defeat the Falcons, and then the first half of the game ends like this, and the halftime break gives the Falcons room to adjust.
The question now is, what will happen after the second half begins? Are the two sides back on the same starting line? Or is there another change in the status of both parties? After the 49ers' upward momentum was interrupted, can it continue? Now that the Falcons have earned some breathing room, can they create a rivalry again?
All hidden in the halftime locker room.
"Patrick, Patrick!" Stepping into the home team's locker room, Lu Ke shouted to Patrick Willis before walking to the offensive team. He wiped the sweat that was constantly flowing down. He looked like he had just recovered from the water. "I'm not sure if you noticed, but Matt passes the ball to different targets in a regular pattern every time."
"What do you mean?" Willis stopped and cast a confused look.
Ryan is not a rookie who has just entered the league, so he cannot easily expose his tactical intentions, but every player has his own customary route, including Lu Ke himself - in a crisis situation, Lu Ke's The first thing you look for must be Logan, or if you are looking for Crabtree's pass, you subconsciously choose the shadow pass behind the shoulder. Ryan is no exception.
In fact, the offensive and defensive team's tactical manuals exist independently of each other. It is taboo for the quarterback to dictate the defensive team's tactics. It can be said that it is just trying to match the rules.
But special circumstances also exist, such as Lu Ke. He was a defensive team coach in college, and he has a unique understanding of the team's tactical manual. More importantly, Lu Ke's repeated study of game videos is astonishing, and he knows every offensive and defensive confrontation like the back of his hand. Therefore, when Lu Ke interprets offensive and defensive tactics from a quarterback's perspective, he can often bring more inspiration.
Such as now.
Lu Ke was not instructing the defensive team's tactics, but relaying his observations to Willis - regarding the offensive team's interpretation, the rest of the work was left to the defensive team's internal discussions. After all, they were the experts.
"The receiving positions of Julio Jones and Tony Gonzalez are almost all near the mid-pass area. For specific data, you can look at the statistics sent from the tactical room, but I estimate that it should be more than 70%. I What it means is that we leave too much time and space for the receiver to move forward."
As a quarterback, Lu Ke's perspective is slightly different. The pocket protection of the offensive line not only gives the quarterback more time to observe the pass; it also gives the receiving player more time to run. This is a mutually reinforcing result. This season, Lu Ke's tactical layout can become more flexible. The growth of the offensive line is indispensable.
"In addition, the injury problem on their offensive line is more serious than expected, especially on the right side. I'm not sure if you noticed, but our breakthrough success rate on the right side is much higher than the blind side. You can take a look at it later. According to the data, the guard on the right side obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm. After every kickoff, his movements and reactions were half a beat slower, and there was a problem with the cooperation between him and the center and right tackle."
"Also, when Matt Ryan felt the pressure to pass the ball, the first thing he looked at was Tony Gonzalez, not Julio Jones..."
