"attack!"
After two seasons of practice and preparation, Lu Ke has now fully adapted to the stadium atmosphere and the rhythm of the game; not to mention, even the Super Bowl stage has been played once, and the tension and excitement of the new season's opening game are not worth it. Mentioned, the cry of the eagle attacking the sky slid across the sky, officially kicking off the 2013 season.
Hold the ball in both hands and retreat quickly.
Before the official kickoff, the multi-line offensive formation changed into a two-by-two offensive formation, but Lu Ke showed no intention of stopping. He turned around and handed the football to starting running back Marcus Lynch— —The San Francisco 49ers' first offense of the new season starts on the ground.
After holding the ball, Marcus bypassed the dense area of confrontation between the two fronts and broke through from the left side with light steps. However, Green Bay Packers' outside linebacker Clay Matthews and defensive end Johnny Jolly (jhnny) -jlly) but maintained a high degree of concentration——
When Marcus just crossed the line of scrimmage, Matthews and Jolly formed a pincer attack one after another, and jointly intercepted Marcus's continuous forward footsteps. This was the only delay. The other defensive players rushed over in a swarm and pushed Marcus down firmly.
It's just a one-yard advance.
The effect of the first ground attack was not good, but Lu Ke did not rush, but patiently observed the position and movement of the Green Bay Packers defensive team.
Last season, the overall performance of the Packers' defensive team made a strong comeback, eventually ranking 11th in the league. It was definitely the best performance in the past few seasons, including 11th in the pass defense league, 17th in the ground defense league, and 17th in the red zone. 28th in the defensive league and 29th in the foul ratio league.
Overall, this is a team whose second-line defense is stronger than ground defense; at the same time, its defensive strength is insufficient and it is often prone to more problems in third-level defense and red zone defense.
During the offseason, the Packers defensive team saw quite a few changes. Starting safety Charles Woodson and starting defensive end J. Wilson (-j-ilsn) both transferred to the Oakland Raiders. Starting outside linebacker Al Erik Alden went to the Indianapolis Colts.
However, the Packers did not look for big fish in the free market, but dug out new stars worthy of cultivation among their own substitutes and sparring lineups.
By the way, the Green Bay Packers are a very special and rare team in the league. Their offseason policy every year is to start the draft first and then the free market.
This can be said to be a square matrix that goes against the rules and against the rules. Because the free market officially opens at the end of March, and the draft has to wait until the end of April, there is still a full month. This also means that the top players have been snapped up early after entering the free market. After the draft When it comes to further operations, the options are relatively limited.
But this is the Green Bay Packers.
They attach great importance to pedigree and system, just like the youth training camp in football. They are selected to join the team from the rookie stage, and they are cultivated and observed all the way. The entire tactical system and ability quality are purely produced by Green Bay. When needed, they can immediately You can enter the main starting lineup.
Of course, it is also very important to fill the gaps in the free market. However, if the choice is between rookies and free agents, the Green Bay Packers tend to trust the rookies they select more.
This has almost become an unwritten tradition. Although in the eyes of other teams and team managers, such persistence is not necessary at all. This is not the correct way to operate a professional team, the Packers still stubbornly adhere to their own traditions——
This year is no different.
After the transfer of three starting players, the Packers found third-year or fourth-year rookie players to fill the vacancies in their substitute lineup to form a new starting lineup.
For the Packers themselves, the offseason running-in will become easier; and for the Packers' opponents, there is a lack of strength reference data. When they meet again, they can only slowly adjust through the game process.
In the first ten-yard attack, Jim Hubble chose to attack on the ground without any tricks. He simply chose to run the ball and hand it over. In fact, it gave Lu Ke more time to observe in a relatively conservative way. To test the opponent’s formation changes and player status——
Of course, this is just the opening warm-up stage, and many things can only be seen on the surface.
Nine yards on second gear.
Lu Ke directly changed the offensive formation - since it is a test of depth, he cannot restrain himself and launch the attack according to his own style, but the overall intensity and intensity can be slightly slowed down to explore potential possibilities on the premise of reducing mistakes - the same It was a two-by-two formation, but Lu Ke evolved from the "i" formation to the pistol formation, and the positions of the receiving players on both sides were also significantly wider.
If the first offense just now was a ground attack, then the second offense now is a blur of ground and passing attacks.
After the kick-off was announced, Lu Ke held the ball in both hands and did not step back or turn around, but stood still.
The Green Bay Packers' defensive formation also completely stretched the team, leaving only two defensive linemen on the front line to face five offensive linemen. All other players moved their positions to the sides and back. , can attack the quarterback forward, or retreat to intercept deep passes.
Lu Ke paused consciously for a moment, glanced around quickly, and then saw that the defensive line was still staying in place to fight against the offensive line - there was no forward attack, and the linebackers and cornerbacks followed the receiving players. When moving their feet, the most important detail is that both safety guards shift their centers of gravity back.
what does that mean?
Packers launch pass defense!
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Lu Ke completed the information collection and analysis with just one quick sweep. The delay caused by a slight pause fully brought out the advantages of the pistol formation, while the Packers defended The team obviously preset the position in advance - Lu Ke will pass the ball.
So, Lu Ke made a prompt decision and turned around, stretched out his right hand towards Marcus, who was standing by his side, and quickly completed the football handover.
Marcus ran laterally from the left to the right, and he could see defensive end BJ-Raji (BJ-Raji) flying towards him; but Raj's position was occupied by offensive tackle Ai Leakes-Boone stopped and could only flap with both hands as hard as he could, but could not go any further.
Marcus made an emergency brake adjustment, bypassing the entanglement between Boone and Pickett, and jumped out from the gap torn between Alex Boone and Anthony Davis——
Because the Packers have just consciously spread the front line position completely, now the linebackers and cornerbacks are all running towards the route following the receiving player, which also makes the space in the short passing area completely open, just five yards away It was enough for Marcus to increase his collision speed.
"Ahhh!"
Amid the cheers and shouts of the nine people in the audience, Marcus could see the panicked expressions of all the Packers defensive players, but their positions were completely blocked by four receiving players. This also provided Marcus with a Si further gained space to advance, and eventually two security guards stepped up in time and hit their lower bodies with flying bodies, destroying Marcus' center of gravity as he continued to advance, forcing Marcus to fall to the ground.
But before he fell to the ground, Marcus' footsteps had already crossed the line of scrimmage and reached his own thirty-three-yard line.
First attack, completed!
Another ten yards in first gear.
Sure enough, a shotgun formation followed! Further test the basic changes in the Packers defensive formation and then interpret more information from the evolution of these basics.
Lu Ke not only cleared the backcourt, but also sent all three receivers, a tight end and a running back to the front line, using three from the left and two from the right to maximize the power of the shotgun - of course , in order to avoid illegal formation, each player's position was still changed, and they blatantly assumed a posture of passing the ball with all their strength.
The entire league knows that the San Francisco 49ers' receiving corps is suffering a serious blow from injuries, and the current starting lineup can only be patched together; but no one will forget that from the end of last year's regular season to the first half of the playoffs , Lu Ke relied on an incomplete receiving team to continue the victory step by step.
Currently, the team has a total of six wide receivers. Among them, Mario Manningham is retired for the season, and Michael Crabtree remains on the 53-man roster but needs to wait at least December before he can debut; the other four The famous wide receivers are Ted Ginn, Jon Baldwin, Anquan Boldin and Quinton Patton.
In this game, the starting tight end is Logan, the starting running back is Marcus, and the starting wide receivers are Gene, Jon and Boldin.
Now it's time to test the receiver's grind.
After the kickoff, Lu Ke held the ball in both hands, continued to step back, and began to observe the backcourt matchup in an orderly manner. However, the receiving player had just started and hurriedly advanced about five yards. The offensive line was already facing a crisis. This was for This is really not good news for Lu Ke.
The Packers only used three people to collide, and left defensive end BJ Raj had once again unreasonably knocked away Boone's confrontation position.
Raj is a 337-pound (153-kilogram) super strong man. He played at the top position last season. This season, he changed positions with his teammates and moved to the defensive end position. The entire defensive collision almost copied the Seattle Seahawks front line. With a retro defensive style of heavy artillery, Raj can easily crush Boone's positioning in terms of matchups.
Boone seemed to be struggling in two consecutive attacks - this was an absolute advantage at the physical level, and the role that technology could play was really minimal.
Then he saw Raj rushing towards Lu Ke like a mountain bearing down on him.
