The offensive lineman's pocket protection was torn. Rogers keenly sensed the crisis and made a prompt decision to actively run out of the pocket, quickly observing with his eyes.
Because the positions of offensive players and defensive players are concentrated in the short passing and intermediate passing areas - according to the original plan, the Green Bay Packers plan to use short passing connections to increase the rhythm and reduce mistakes, focusing on the smoothness of the offense. , but now, the offensive position has cut off Rogers' own space to run with the ball, so passing the ball has become the only option.
Rogers' vision covered the entire field, and he was observing while running, hoping to complete the pass as soon as possible. This also caused his movements to not fully speed up. After getting rid of the confrontation area between the two sides, he immediately adjusted his steps to try to complete the pass, but failed. Unexpectedly, Ardon's pursuit speed was beyond imagination——
To be precise, it should be that Rogers' offensive tackle failed to entangle Aldon. Aldon saw Rogers take the initiative to leave the pocket, immediately shook off the opponent's entanglement, and then sprinted towards Rogers; at the same time, another defensive end, Tony Jarrod Eddy, also followed suit. Rushing over, the two people sprinted one after another, plus the two offensive linemen who quickly returned to defense, and four players suddenly appeared and rushed towards Rogers, like a hurricane, covering their heads and faces. The ground was smashed over.
Rogers had to start to dodge, but in order to prevent his footsteps from breaking through the line of scrimmage, he could only choose to continue to move laterally. Then all the passing lines on the left were cut off, and he could only find the passing target on the right.
confusion!
It's a mess!
Rogers quickly cross-stepped and moved laterally, but as soon as Aldon saw it, he burst out with incredible energy and rushed towards Rogers. This also forced Rogers to quickly whip his whip before the opponent knocked him off the sideline. With irregular gestures, he threw the football in a small arc and flew fifteen yards away.
Almost as soon as the football was released, Aldon had already bumped into him with his shoulder, knocking Rogers out of the sideline and rolling forward continuously into the pile of San Francisco 49ers offensive players, including Logan and Marku. Si and others hurriedly intercepted Rogers' forward momentum and protected Rogers from getting injured.
So, what about rugby?
…
In a panic, the football leapt towards James Jones, the Green Bay Packers right wing receiver——
James Jones and his wide receiver teammate Jarrett Boykin appeared on the right side together, but Boykin's inside-out running route was entangled by cornerback Carroll Rodgers. .
It was obvious that Boykin had lost his position and even his position at this time. Carroll was pushing and pushing Boykin's footsteps out of bounds. Seeing that Boykin was already shaky and about to lose his center of gravity. , obviously no longer suitable to be an emergency pass object, so Rodgers passed over Boykin and Carroll and chose Jones.
After Jones passed Carroll's position, he rushed forward towards the deep area, and then you can see safety guard Eric Reed quickly marking him; at the same time, inside linebacker Michael Weihout was slow Half a beat also began to quickly catch up, and the two defensive players formed a circle around Jones one after another.
To make matters worse, from the corner of his vision, he could also see two other defensive players appearing behind Weihout and bypassing the position, cutting diagonally into the deep area, forming a secondary encirclement, like an onion, circling the defensive formation. The enclosure spreads outward, and the large expanses of white form a visual impact.
Emergency stops and turns.
Jones used his physical advantage to quickly complete a turn and tried to get rid of Red, but unexpectedly, Red collided directly with him - this seemed to be an accident, the soles of their feet were a little slippery, and the grass was still smaller than usual. It was slightly slippery, and then the center of gravity of both people shook.
With this little time difference, Weihout had already caught up, but he did not step up and get stuck. Instead, he intercepted the passage between Rogers and Jones, trying to jump up to destroy the pass. On the one hand, he was interfering with Rogers. The passing line of sight, on the other hand, forces Rogers to raise the passing arc, which can provide defensive players with more time to defend closely.
At this time, Rogers passed the ball!
Weiholt jumped high, but Rogers' passing arc was obviously under control. Even in a critical and difficult situation, he still did not forget to observe and control. The rugby ball just passed Weiholt's interception range and headed towards He fell to a deeper position in the rear.
Jones' line of sight was blocked by Weihout, and he could only see some blurry effects. He stood up quickly and moved laterally to his left, trying to reconnect with Rogers; and then he saw someone standing next to him. Rhett on the left had already completed standing and moving one step ahead of time, and the next second, Rhett jumped high.
"what happened?"
Jones's mind was filled with question marks. Because Weihot stood in front of him, he could only capture fragmented and blurry images surging rapidly, but before the question marks could fully emerge, he found the answer——
Reed stood half a step diagonally in front of Jones, stretched out his hand to block the connecting pass between Rogers and Jones, blocked and beat, and then the forward momentum of the football was abruptly cut off, and under the reaction force It was refracted back and outlined a small arc that fell rapidly.
Jones was about to tackle Reed when he saw the football heading into Weiholt's arms.
Weihout's feet had just landed, and he didn't even have time to stand firm or adjust. He just made a reflexive action to catch the ball, and just like that, he took the football into his arms.
…
"Rogers is using his own feet to gain time and space! Rogers! Rogers! Rogers teleported the football when he was about to encounter a sack!"
"Pass the ball!"
"Interception! Interception! God! Reed intercepted the football on its downward curve, and then the football refracted an arc and went directly into the arms of Weiholt. Weiholt completed the interception! God! What is going on? Weihout's center of gravity failed to adjust. He is now facing his own half and he is trying to attack back!"
"Weihot! Weihot bypassed Jones' position and cut horizontally towards the central area. The whole scene was extremely chaotic! Weihot was looking for an opening! The Green Bay Packers' offense was in chaos, and they couldn't even do anything about it. An effective encirclement was formed, and Weihot still did not give up the counterattack!"
"Wait a minute, Lang made a meritorious service! Who would have thought that it was offensive guard TJ-Lang who made a meritorious service! Lang intercepted Weiholt in the central area, forcing Weiholt to fall directly to the ground, and the final position It was fixed on the 40-yard line of the Green Bay half! After all, Weihout was not allowed to continue to attack!"
"Accident! This is definitely an accident! Weihout, the undrafted rookie in 2011, has never had any sense of presence in the past two seasons. He has appeared in all games as a special team and his performance is quite satisfactory; but this season, he has successively He came on as a substitute due to injuries to the main players, but his performance often brought surprises. In the wild card game, as a substitute for Patrick Willis, the captain of the San Francisco 49ers defensive team, Weihout opened the game with an interception! Wonderful, this is really wonderful!”
"Of course, before Weihout, his teammates had already created enough momentum. The credit for this interception should also be counted among Aldon Smith and Eric Reed, as well as the entire defensive team! San Francisco The 49ers defense did a great job and completely suppressed the Green Bay Packers!"
"Let's look back at this wave of offense and defense. Obviously, the San Francisco 49ers have created enough pressure from the first moment of the kickoff, forcing Rodgers to take the initiative to leave the pocket, and the San Francisco 49ers' subsequent defense followed up. The speed was very fast and it strangled all Rodgers' passing lanes, which made Rodgers make a mistake!"
"That was a bad pass choice!"
"In the panic, Rogers was unable to make a clear judgment. He just wanted to find a gap and complete the pass, but his judgment on the position on the field was not very accurate, although he made a correct decision on the passing arc. Control, but the final interception was still not too difficult. This was definitely not the opening we imagined."
"This season, Rodgers is still one of the players with the lowest turnover control rate. He started nine games and scored 17 touchdowns and six interceptions. Although compared to the previous two seasons, the data has still increased. ; But Rogers’ judgment of the situation is still among the best in the league, and he can always find ways to avoid mistakes. Obviously, the opening stage of this game, weather effects, playoff factors, etc. are creating more difficulties. The first pass was intercepted, and the situation was more serious than imagined."
"Now, the San Francisco 49ers have won an offensive opportunity starting from 40 yards in the opponent's half, and then it's up to Lu Ke to make the first wave of offense in the game."
…
There were sighs of regret in the Blue Castle Stadium. No one wanted to start with an interception. What's more, they were facing a very powerful opponent. The current situation was indeed very bad. They stood up and returned to the field. Rogers inside couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He took off the strap of his helmet and got angry with himself. He was very dissatisfied with his performance just now. Green Bay's morale was a little low.
At the same time, Weihout couldn't believe that he actually completed the interception. He stared at Red, Aldon and others with his eyes wide open, his face full of doubts: Did I intercept? Did I really plagiarize? I actually intercepted it! And he still intercepted Rogers! God, this is incredible!
For the San Francisco 49ers who are playing away from home, this is definitely good news under bad weather. They themselves did not expect such a start.
