"0:0".
The first quarter of the game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks ended, but neither side was able to change the score on the field. The defense seemed to be becoming the protagonist of this game.
But compared to the gloomy Seattle Seahawks, the San Francisco 49ers offense, led by Lu Ke, insists on walking on the right path. What stands in front of them may be enough to be among the top three in history. The defensive team's ability and intensity far exceeded any opponent they had played against before. For Lu Ke, this was a once-in-a-lifetime challenge opportunity, and now every cell in his body was active.
Lu Ke licked his lips gently, as if he was savoring the tense atmosphere of the game. He could faintly catch a faint smell of blood, which completely aroused his emotions. He simply ignored Logan's teasing. , his eyes withdrew from the members of the Bombing Legion and looked at his teammates, "Let's try a different attack plan."
They know this is not an easy game, and the coaching staff has prepared a number of different offensive plan combinations, hoping to open up the situation. After adjustments and attempts in the first quarter of the game, it is time to prescribe the right medicine, but before a full-scale attack, Lu Ke still needs to complete a little adjustment.
The level of preparation for the pre-game tactical meeting was immediately highlighted. Lu Ke quickly completed the tactical layout with key words, and then his teammates on the offensive team nodded to express their understanding. Everyone naturally came up with the corresponding tactical execution. The entire intention and thinking became clear, which was crucial to the development of Lu Ke's work.
Ted Ginn nodded to Luke, and then quickly left the field, rotating Garrett Selleck up. As a result, the San Francisco 49ers transformed into a double tight end formation, with Logan and Selleck serving as Tight end, Crabtree and Boldin served as wide receivers, continuing the gravity attack formation that has been tried many times in the past two weeks.
The offensive team once again completed the formation and was ready to continue the game.
Teddy and Kirk in the studio were aware of Lu Ke's change of formation, but the actual situation was slightly different from what they expected.
"It's Richard Sherman again!"
"But this time Sherman got stuck in his position early, took away the football, and once again completed a successful defense! Such control of the passing arc still lacks some accuracy for Sherman, leaving Sherman Man has so much room for adjustment, he can completely use his physical fitness to burst out with powerful energy in an instant and complete the defense at critical moments!"
"Lu Ke's passing choice is questionable!"
"For two consecutive passes, Lu Ke chose Sherman's defensive direction. They were both quick and short passes. The targets of the two passes were Logan Newman and Anquan Boldin. Newman successfully completed the ball. , Boldin was unfortunately taken over by Sherman. These two offenses lacked enough changes, which was very fatal for Lu Ke."
"What exactly is going on?"
"In the entire first quarter of the game, Lu Ke only passed the ball in the direction of Sherman three times, with one success and two failures; and now the second quarter has just begun, Lu Ke made two consecutive passes aimed at Sherman. This is not A good sign. Did Lu Ke lose his mind because of Sherman's pre-game provocation? Now he is obsessed with challenging Sherman? Courage is commendable, but from a tactical level, this is very, very irrational. Behavior."
"It can be seen that the San Francisco 49ers' offensive team is still not able to reach the peak height of last season. After being unable to attack for a long time in the first quarter, starting from Lu Ke, the entire offensive team seemed a little impatient. Now, they need to settle down. It is correct to calm down, push forward steadily and slowly look for opportunities.”
At the beginning of the second quarter, Lu Ke's two consecutive passes were aimed at Sherman? In this game, only two of the five passes directed towards Sherman's defense have been successful. Such a success rate cannot be said to be outstanding, so what exactly is Lu Ke insisting on? Is it really because of impatience that I lost my sense of proportion?
Of course, the third-year quarterback is still a young player, and it is understandable to make mistakes occasionally. What's more, he has also experienced continuous injuries this season. There are a small number of questionable passing options in the game, which seems to be nothing. It's worth the fuss. But the problem is that this "third-year quarterback" is Lu Ke, which is a bit strange.
So, does Lu Ke know what he is doing now?
Lu Ke obviously knew.
In order to prepare for this game, Lu Ke repeatedly watched all the Seattle Seahawks game videos this season and studied the Bombing Legion seriously.
In fact, overall, the tactical system and arrangement and combination have not changed much. It still continues the defensive formation system that emerged last season. This year's defensive team that swept the league can simply be regarded as an upgrade of last year's team. version, this is fine; but the words are simple to say, but the actual experience of playing against each other is a different feeling.
The first is the defensive front. The Seattle Seahawks, who have been strengthened this season, now truly have the ability to defend hard on the ground and rotate ferocious passes in real-time. This also allows for many possible combinations of defensive tactics. For the quarterback Defensive reading puts forward extremely stringent requirements; but sometimes, even if the quarterback makes predictions in advance and sees through the opponent's defensive tactics, the pressure will not be reduced much.
Because in addition to the collective strength, the individual abilities of the opponent's defensive players are also very outstanding, and the offensive line needs to face severe challenges.
Next is the defensive second line. After two seasons of polishing and training, the famous Bombing Legion has now become an upgraded version of the complete body.
Brandon Browner plays alone on the right side, Richard Sherman plays alone on the left side, and Earl Thomas falls behind alone. The three players stick to their posts in a zigzag manner, rarely and rarely. AWOL Even if the entire defensive position is cleared, they will not leave their position easily.
For example, Sherman, because of his strong interception ability, fewer and fewer quarterbacks dare to challenge him this season. Many times, he is idle throughout the game, but he will not lose his defense. Location.
This also means that the Seattle Seahawks' second-line defense has formed a solid tube, and it is almost impossible for the quarterback to rely on his own tactical changes to break the situation.
But at the same time, the Legion's defense is not static. Although the "shaped" trident refuses to leave its position, they still have a fourth player, safety Cam Chancellor. The premise is that Chancellor is a strong defender, and at the same time he does not become clumsy because of his strong body. On the contrary, his footsteps are very flexible and agile. His defensive zone covers every corner of the court in the middle of the "pin-shaped", passing the ball , run the ball, intercept, cover, intercept, pick-and-roll, etc., it can be called all-round.
As a result, the Legion of Detonation formed a set of natural defensive strategies:
With Browner and Sherman on the left and right sides to complete the match-up against the "position" rather than the "player", whether it is against a wide receiver, a tight end, or a running back, they can rely on their own personal abilities. Complete the defense; Thomas in the back will complete the dam interception, and any fish that slips through the net will be solved by him; in the end, Chancellor's performance will be adjusted at any time according to the changes in the quarterback's tactics, and all offenses will be blocked with supporting facilities. tactics.
It can be said that the "shaped" trident will determine the lower limit of the Seattle Seahawks' defensive team's status; while Chancellor will determine the upper limit of the defensive team's status.
It sounds very simple, but in actual implementation, it is very difficult to achieve:
The personal abilities of the "Zigzag" gang of three are particularly outstanding. They are tall, strong, strong and ruthless. Even when facing top wide receivers like "Megatron" Calvin Johnson, they are not left behind; at the same time, Qian Sai The cooperation between Le and his teammates is also natural, perfectly connecting personal abilities with collective strength.
After the Legion of Boom quickly rose to prominence, many teams tried to imitate it and build the same team, but no one was able to copy it. In the entire NFL, this is the only one, and there is no other semicolon.
The San Francisco 49ers had already challenged all the above-mentioned defensive formations and matchups three times last season and achieved an impressive record of winning all three games. Lu Ke was already aware of them; but this season, after completing the upgrade, The intensity and hardness are completely different. At the same time, the San Francisco 49ers also need to face the cruel reality of their declining condition, so the feeling of playing against them is completely different.
In the first quarter of the game, Lu Ke still challenged Browner's defensive left side, which is the right side of the Seattle Seahawks. This is a relatively weak side, because Browner is a veteran who entered the league in 2005, and his personal ability is relatively weak. Compared with the other three teammates who are in their prime, they are still a little weak.
But Pete Carroll was already prepared for this, and Chancellor and Thomas filled in very quickly. Even if Lu Ke took the lead through a series of tactical arrangements, they were able to use their personal abilities to complete the defense.
In the second quarter, Lu Ke took the initiative to challenge Sherman's defensive right side, paving the way for his subsequent attack.
In fact, the entire league clearly knows that compared to blasting the second line of the Legion's defense, ground attack is the most powerful way to break through the Seattle Seahawks defense. But the problem is that the opponent's ground defense is not weak, it can only be said that it is relatively not that strong; and the San Francisco 49ers' running back group lacks a powerful running back like Marshawn Lynch, and they want to open up the situation head-on. , it can be said to be extremely difficult.
In the final analysis, it is still necessary to combine passing and running the ball to make the defensive team lose their rhythm, so that they can win more space to advance.
Now, Lu Ke disrupted the balance of the Seattle Seahawks defense by passing two passes in a row. What seemed like reckless or even stupid passing choices turned out to be a time of trial and error for Lu Ke. Against the strongest defensive team in history, Lu Ke doesn't think he can easily defeat his opponent. He needs to allow mistakes, and at the same time, he also needs to calculate the opponent's room for error.
It wasn't going to be easy; but now he was ready, the trial and error over. Fupin Chinese
