After Marcus caught the football, he quickly switched his steps and pulled sideways to the left. Then he could see Logan rushing towards him.
Logan, who was originally standing on the inside of the left wing, was facing off against the Texans' outside linebackers or safety guards. However, after the kickoff, he did not continue to rush forward. Instead, he took half a step back, turned around, and headed in the direction of Lu Ke. After running quickly, his moving position fell to Marcus's left, and the two people's running routes showed a parallel structure.
The two sides ran towards each other and passed by each other in an instant.
Marcus began to turn counterclockwise, and then gently threw the football in the direction of Logan; at the same time, Logan turned clockwise, and while running at high speed, firmly controlled the football in the palm of his hands.
The entire pass was passed smoothly without any hiccups, and the football's position had already shifted.
"boom!"
Marcus had just taken action when he felt a powerful impact, and every bone and muscle in his body began to groan and moan: JJ Watt.
Lu Ke has repeatedly emphasized that Watt's frontal grappling, crisis interpretation, and immediate response abilities are all top-notch in the league. He is a rare all-round warrior and must not be taken lightly; but after all, Marcus and Watt are not on the same court. Competitive training - offseason training is completely different, which also prevents him from having a precise experience. Deep down, he is more vigilant, but it is still not enough.
Now, Marcus finally understood what Lu Ke meant.
One second, Watt and Stanley were still entangled and fighting, Lu Ke chose to attack on the ground, and Marcus' footsteps had not left the protection of the pocket; the next second, Watt had already gotten rid of Stanley and accurately captured him. Marcus, before Marcus could find a route to advance, would have killed this ground attack - if Marcus had the ball.
Fortunately, Marcus handed the football over half a beat earlier.
That guy Logan, is that okay?
…
Logan caught the football with both hands, glanced at Marcus who was being tackled fiercely from the corner of his eye, and then moved horizontally to the right.
Lu Ke adjusted his steps slightly, turned around and made a motion to hand over the football, as if Logan was about to hand the football to him again, and then he would complete the pass - Logan quickly passed by Lu Ke After passing by, his footsteps paused slightly, and then Lu Ke turned around, his feet moving and adjusting steadily in the bumpy pocket, and he raised his head and began to observe the passing route.
But in fact, Lu Ke didn't have a football in his hands at all.
After a dazzling operation, the second-line players on the defensive team had no time to make a judgment. The four linebackers' centers of gravity showed four different moving states, although their attention always stayed on Lu Ke, observing every move of the quarterback. , but made different judgments based on Lu Ke's movements and adjustments, which directly led to completely different movement directions.
Even the linebackers are like this, and the second-line defense is even more confusing - they still think that Lu Ke is about to pass the ball, but they have to pay attention to Logan's running route from the corner of their eyes, and they must also complete their own defense. , I was a little too busy for a while. Everyone has the same question in their mind:
Where the hell is rugby?
The only ones who can clearly see the situation are the defensive linemen at the front, but now their position is blocked by five offensive linemen and they cannot get rid of it. In this flash of lightning, the situation on the field has changed again.
After Logan staggered Lu Ke's position, he immediately came to the slot on the right. Along the gap in the slot, he ran a small diagonal line diagonally forward to the right, which appeared in front of Logan. It's a large open space.
The positions of the linebackers and cornerbacks were separated, and the nearest linebacker Joe Mays was also six yards away, which also meant that Logan won a wide space to continue advancing.
Logan raised his head and glanced around quickly. While adjusting his steps, he made an overview of the situation on the field. Then his calf muscles burst out with ferocious kicking force, and his whole body shot out like an arrow. An air-piercing force burst out in an instant, and the treading footsteps gradually raised large tracts of grass clippings, causing an invisible cyclone to spin rapidly.
"Marcus Lynch! This is a ground push!"
"Wait a minute, Lynch passed the football backwards to Logan Newman! Newman was pulling horizontally, and he and Lu Ke made a handover! No, no, no, not Lu Ke, this is a fake move! Newman was still breaking through with the ball, and he had just started pushing past the midfield line!"
"Beautiful! The Houston Texans defense didn't react at all!"
"Newman is continuing to advance! Now there is a wide open space directly in front of him. It is dangerous! The Texans' second-line defense is in danger!"
"Now the Texans defensive team finally reacted. Outside linebacker Joe Mays was the first to notice the abnormality. He was sprinting towards Newman with all his strength. Mays laterally cut off Newman's advancement route. Wow! My God! Oh. , Jesus Christ! How did all this happen? This pick was really beautiful!"
Logan's peripheral vision caught Metz's horizontal collision early, but he did not surrender. He firmly protected the football with his right hand, then raised his left hand and straightened his arm completely. Not only did he not avoid it, but he also accumulated energy as he continued to kick on the ground, and rushed towards Mace without hesitation.
Just when the two people were about to collide, Logan suppressed his entire body forward and exploded all his strength. In an instant, he pressed against the side of Mace's helmet, and then condescendingly superimposed his body weight on it and cast with all his strength. Pressing, with a loud "bang" sound, a powerful impact flew directly towards it, like the pendulum hitting a Hong Zhong.
Mace felt as if sparks hit his head, and his upper body flew backwards. However, his lower body continued to move forward, and his body was immediately divided into two halves. He rotated clockwise up and down, and his center of gravity shifted. It's like being thrown into a rotating washing machine, the world is spinning!
But Metz still relied on his strong physical fitness to hold up his body with his waist and did not overturn directly.
Naturally, Logan would not let it go easily, and then launched a second wave of push. With the posture of splitting Huashan with force, he pressed down towards the same position with his left hand again, and the superposition of instantaneous explosive power was repeated twice in a row. , overwhelmingly rolled down, and then directly overturned Metz to the ground.
Mace was knocked down without any chance of fighting back.
"God, Newman's strong arm looks like the Hulk's indestructible left hand. He didn't leave Mace the slightest chance to resist and broke through Mace's defense in an instant!"
"Newman is still pushing! The forty-yard line! The thirty-five-yard line!"
"The Texans' backcourt defense has finally come to its senses. The two defensive players are working together to compress Newman's advancement space. After Newman's push just now, his steps are a little messy and his center of gravity can no longer be adjusted, but he is still persisting. ! Wow, Newman was running on tiptoes along the sideline, looking like a circus acrobat!"
"The two defensive players didn't expect it at all. Their positions were missed again! Logan Newman? Logan Newman once again insisted on advancing at least three yards, and then he was completely squeezed out of the space and was forced to jump out of the sideline. , ended this wonderful advancement!”
"Logan Newman is on fire right now!"
"The San Francisco 49ers used a trick attack to once again break the Houston Texans' defensive layout. They used the running attack to cover the passing attack, but then used the passing attack to complete the cover. The one who really executed the tactics was still Logan Newman! This is a ground push by a tight end acting as a running back! Newman made full use of his matchup advantage in the short passing area, broke the defensive blockade with a fast and powerful push, and drove straight in!"
"The most exciting moment of breakthrough occurred in the matchup between Logan and Metz! We can now look at the video replay. Newman's absolutely strong and domineering attitude directly destroyed Metz's center of gravity without even forming a confrontation. He was broken through. This was a perfect combination of strength and skill. Newman simply completed the crushing and continued to break through!"
"Then he danced like an acrobat on the sideline, once again showing the flexibility and delicate part of Newman's physical fitness! Wonderful! Truly wonderful!"
"In the past three weeks, the entire San Francisco 49ers offense has been in a state of misfire. The occasional bright moments have failed to remind people that this is an offense that has ranked among the top three in the league for two consecutive seasons! But now Newman has revived again, and he once again reminded people , he is the top scorer in the past two seasons!"
"Let's take a look at this wave of San Francisco's offense. From Lu Ke to Marcus Lynch to Logan Newman, the three Musketeers of UCLA completed the advance together, advancing a full 21 yards in one go. Arriving at the 32-yard line in the opponent's half, it was already within the range of David Akins' free kick. It was unstoppable! It was really unstoppable!"
After being pushed out of the sideline, Logan clenched his hands into fists, like a boxer's own chest muscles, and roared heartily.
In the past three weeks, they have really suppressed themselves for too long, and the entire offense is not going well. Each of them is trying to think of a way, but they are just running into walls everywhere like trapped animals, and they can never find an exit. The harder they work, the worse they get. It was frustrating, scarred, and exhausted at the end, but still standing still.
Now, Lu Ke has finally returned, and every successful advance they make begins to awaken the passion in their blood.
But after the brief moment of catharsis, Logan turned around again and joined the offensive team: This wave of offense is not over yet, they will never be satisfied with free kicks! A touchdown is their goal!
