This is a pass on the edge of the red zone.
The San Francisco 49ers' defensive front only used four players to rush the pass, but it exerted tremendous pressure, forcing Aaron Rodgers to find a passing target in the chaos; but the pass defense also strictly defended, especially in the end zone. The range really didn't leave much room for Rogers.
Rodgers continued to move in the pocket and finally found wide receiver James Jones with a five-yard short pass, hoping to gain some yards through Jones' advancement and get rid of the danger of being sacked.
Jones completed the catch.
But this was an intensive defense at the front of the red zone. As soon as Jones completed the ball, he encountered a strong impact from cornerback Carroll Rogers. Carroll knocked the football from Jones' arms directly out, and the football was in the arms of Jones. Flying high in the air, safety guard Eric Reed, whose steps were lagging behind, quickly stepped up, successfully caught the football, and completed the interception.
This is a game-changing interception!
The Green Bay Packers have arrived at the edge of the red zone and are about to score. Once they score again, they will severely suppress the San Francisco 49ers' continued upward momentum and further push the San Francisco 49ers to the edge of defeat; but now, there is no touchdown. , not even a free kick, Rogers' hard-working advancement was all in vain, and all efforts were wiped out with a change of ball rights - the only thing to be thankful for is that Rogers consumed enough game time and did not leave any room for Lu Ke Too much space.
An interception, or a dropped ball, or a change of possession at any time is extremely inappropriate and can even be said to be fatal.
In the past two seasons, Rogers and Lu Ke have been the quarterbacks with the lowest touchdown-to-interception ratio in the entire league. In this statistic, Rogers is the best in history. Through observation and judgment before taking action, Rogers is often able to keenly capture more crises and situations, which allows his passing to minimize mistakes, but this does not mean that Rogers will not make mistakes.
Facing the Atlanta Falcons in the divisional round last season, Rodgers and the Packers' offense were in a sluggish overall state. Rodgers inexplicably threw two interceptions and suffered a clean sheet in the first half. Although they chased hard in the second half, they still couldn't make it in time. Filling in the holes and ultimately losing the game.
At the most critical moment today, the interception appeared again.
Strictly speaking, this has nothing to do with Rodgers. Most of the reasons for the interceptions need to be blamed on Jones, but... interceptions are interceptions, and this is what is included in the quarterback's technical statistics, which also makes this game The second turning point came. If the San Francisco 49ers can regain a glimmer of hope, then this is the most critical turning moment!
Rogers stood there, looking at Reid in disbelief as he completed the interception. His breath was stuck in his throat. Should Jones be blamed for this? Or should we be wary of Red and Carol?
But the interception had already occurred, so what's the use of pursuing these details. In the end, he still didn't react, took off his helmet, and ran to the side of the field in large strides. Now they still have eleven points. Advantage, no matter what, the initiative is still in the hands of the Packers.
…
The opportunity just appeared!
Lu Ke quickly put down the tactical manual in his hand and led his offensive teammates into the field.
Although their offensive starting position is very bad, above their own three-yard line, this is a position that cannot be taken lightly. If you are not careful, it may lead to a safety score, or even be intercepted and returned for a touchdown. So for Green Bay As far as the Packers are concerned, they are more certain to win; but no matter what, the San Francisco 49ers offense is now back on stage, which means anything is possible!
This is the most important.
Because the starting position of the offense is at the front of the end zone, the offensive tactics that the San Francisco 49ers can choose are really limited, and reducing mistakes is the first priority; while the Green Bay Packers' defensive tactics are bound to be more impactful and aggressive, which also means that the offense The task of the front line is very heavy.
Perhaps it was this situation that made the entire offensive line a little nervous. Lu Ke had just kicked off the ball, and the referee threw a yellow flag. Lu Ke threw the football to the referee for no apparent reason, and then heard the penalty: Anthony Davis moved early. , the offense was penalized five yards.
Lu Ke really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His opponent didn't move early, but he did.
Anthony looked at Lu Ke with an apologetic look, but Lu Ke waved his hands relaxedly, still thinking of joking, "It's okay, we don't have much room to retreat, so it seems that we can't be considered a loss."
For a foul at the front of the end zone, no matter how many yards are penalized, the line of scrimmage will not enter the end zone. The most extreme case is above the one-yard line at the front of the end zone.
That's it now. Despite the five-yard penalty, the San Francisco 49ers' line of scrimmage was only back to their own one-yard line. After all, they had no retreat.
Should San Francisco opt to run the ball? For an offense at the front end of the end zone, the safest situation is to run the ball, because the running back will not drop the ball easily and will not be intercepted. Relying on the ground advancement of the running back can obtain a safer kickoff position. This is undoubtedly the safest and simplest tactical option for the offensive team.
But is this the best option?
The Green Bay Packers lined up six players on the defensive front, and the linebackers' positions were also half a step ahead, completely establishing a bucket formation for pressure from the entire front line, whether it was ground defense or rushing the pass for four points. Guard, in such an offensive starting position, the defensive team will have the absolute upper hand; and the quarterback does not have much room to move at all, making it even more difficult to pass the ball.
To be precise, there is no best option for a kickoff above one's own one-yard line. No matter what tactical combination is chosen, the offensive team must face a severe test.
Through the headphones, Lu Ke and Hubble discussed and finally decided on tactics - Hubble was indeed the most daring one!
Multi-line offensive formation!
On the left wing stood three players: Logan, Boldin and Vernon - during the special gear, Vernon replaced Jon's position and appeared in rotation; on the right wing stood Gene.
Among them, Vernon and Joe Stanley on the left almost stood side by side, and it was somewhat impossible to tell whether he was an offensive lineman or a receiver; while Gene stood in the middle outside of the right wing, relying on his own strength to support The attack firepower of the entire right wing was launched.
At the same time, Gower also replaced Marcus on the stage. He and Lu Ke stood parallel to each other in a pistol formation. The position was on the right side, basically maintaining a vertical confrontation with Alex Boone on the right side. The roles were also intermediate. Between the running backs, wide receivers and offensive linemen, the defensive team cannot make accurate judgments.
The San Francisco 49ers actually set up a full pass formation?
But the Green Bay Packers remained unmoved and their defensive position remained unchanged.
Lu Ke's eyes carefully looked at the position and center of gravity of the defensive front and linebackers, and then quickly glanced at the cornerback and safety on the right.
This change in eye detail is an advanced ability for a quarterback. In one of the previous attacks, Lu Ke hinted with his eyes that he was about to make a long pass, misleading the judgment of the defensive players, gaining an advantage of half a shot or one shot, and then chose a short pass to find Boldin, completing the advance.
Now Lu Ke is doing his old tricks again.
However, Lu Ke didn't show it too obviously, otherwise it would be easy to go too far. A fleeting glimpse, a glimpse of water, this is the best state; even if the misdirection of the eyes does not succeed, it does not hurt. In the final analysis, it is just a foreshadowing to seize the opportunity, and there is no need to place too much hope.
Then, Lu Ke announced the kick-off.
"kick off!"
"Wow, the Green Bay Packers' defensive front chose a pass-rushing quarterback! They sent out seven players to rush the pass. The powerful impact instantly pushed the San Francisco 49ers' offensive line forward, facing the mainland. Ke formed a circle, it was so brutal, it looked like a horror movie!"
"Resisted!"
"The San Francisco 49ers' offensive line arrived hard to withstand the opponent's first wave of impact! In addition to the five offensive lines, Vernon Davis and Frank Gall also joined the pocket protection line, and then formed Using a 'seven VS seven' formation, they barely managed to survive the strong impact of the defensive team!"
"But the pocket is shrinking, shrinking fast!"
"Lu Ke has been forced to retreat to the second half of the end zone. Danger! The situation is very dangerous now! Lu Ke! Lu Ke passes the ball! Before the pocket protection is about to be completely closed, Lu Ke quickly passes the ball!"
…
Lu Ke could clearly feel that the stormy waves were surging towards him. The hot and fierce air waves were compressing his movement space, leaving him with nowhere to escape - if he retreated any further, he would be forced out of bounds.
The Green Bay Packers devoted almost all their strength to press the pass, not just the numbers, but also the strength and momentum. In the offensive and defensive confrontation one yard ahead of their own end zone, the defensive team was gaining the upper hand, and the effect was obvious.
observe. observe!
Lu Ke's footsteps were also slightly confused, because there was no room to move and adjust around him, but his vision still did not give up, and he was always looking for the passing target.
Since Hubble has chosen the passing tactic, Lu Ke will implement it to the end, and all potential risks must be faced bravely.
One second!
Two seconds!
found it!
Lu Ke found the passing target on his left side, raised his right hand, and completed the adjustment of his steps in the limited space, with almost no pedaling movements. He relied on the strength of his arms and wrists and the twisting of his waist and abdomen to complete the pass, as if The football was thrown out as quickly as a whip.
The football drew a high arc in the air, crossed lightly and nimbly over the minefield where the offensive and defensive fronts gathered and entangled, and spun at high speed toward the direction twenty yards away, aiming at the left wing and approaching the sideline. A parabola was outlined in a thrilling manner nearby. The sea of red and white lights in the audience were all involved in the movement of the rugby shuttle, creating a powerful shock wave that was as powerful as a bamboo!
