When the offensive starting line cuts into the red zone, for both offense and defense, the intensity of the game will increase to a higher level, and the defensive team with comprehensive coverage can have a slight advantage.
Ten yards on first down and a touchdown on first down.
Lu Ke chose a quick short pass and found Selleck, who performed well in the previous game; Selleck lived up to expectations and completed the ball and advanced more than four yards in the dense defensive area.
But unexpectedly, Crabtree's early foul before the kickoff directly invalidated this offense, and he was also penalized five yards.
As a result, the San Francisco 49ers were forced to exit the red zone and stand on the fifteen-yard line.
Lu Ke was not impatient. He regrouped his teammates, rearranged tactics, re-completed the formation, adjusted his breathing and rhythm, started the layout from scratch, and then announced the kick-off again.
"attack!"
In a multi-line offensive formation, Lu Ke stood in the pocket that encountered a fierce impact. He paused and adjusted his steps. He did not choose to pass the ball immediately and deliberately delayed his shot; but he also did not hesitate too much and used his footsteps. The move created the effect of a screen short pass, and then he quickly took action and sent a five-yard short pass.
The passing target is——
An Kuang Bolding!
It was also a multi-line attack, but this time the trident was switched to the right side. Boldin partnered with Logan and Selleck. The three players quickly moved out after the kick-off. Boldin and Logan, who were standing in the front, teamed up with each other. He rushed forward in two opposite directions, left and right, while Selleck adjusted his steps slightly, fell behind the two people, and rushed forward in a straight line.
The entire running route is like an equilateral triangle stretched into an isosceles triangle. The two players in the front row are obviously faster than the one player in the back.
The Green Bay Packers' secondary defense once again had very obvious defensive holes: cornerback Shields targeted Selleck, outside linebacker Mike Neal followed Logan's footsteps, and the remaining gaps were left by the safety. MD-Jennings was guarding Boldin against each other. This was an invisible zone defense. Neither the offensive players nor the defensive players were completely close to each other. Instead, they covered the area while moving with their feet. From the corner of their eyes, they were still observing Lu Ke's pass. ball; but the problem is that the coverage area is not completely tightened!
There were about five yards between the positions of Boldin and Jennings. In Boldin's full sprint, five yards was a matter of the blink of an eye, so Jennings lowered his center of gravity and did not step forward rashly. Blocked to avoid losing his defensive position, but Boldin's footsteps suddenly stopped and turned around near the ten-yard line, giving Jennings no room to defend the block, and then Lu Ke's pass The ball has been delivered.
Pass the ball.
catch the ball.
The two actions were like a metronome. A short five-yard pass was delivered as soon as the hand was lifted and the knife was dropped. Then Boldin had already controlled the football - Lu Ke's passing control was still not delicate enough, and the rotation was obvious. It wasn't enough, so the force was a bit overwhelming; but Lu Ke's passing foundation was very good, and Boldin still controlled the football in time, turned around and rushed towards Jennings!
Jennings took the lead, and Neal also rushed over from the side, but Boldin still managed to advance another five yards, encountered a wall at the five-yard line, and fell directly to the ground.
Five yards on second down and a touchdown on second down.
"Another defensive loophole was caught by Lu Ke, and he completed the pass without any hesitation! Clean and neat!"
"You can see it in the details. After the opening, the Green Bay Packers focused on passing defense, but the defensive front failed to put enough pressure on Lu Ke. So far, Lu Ke has not made any hasty shots. , This is fatal! Because Lu Ke had enough time to complete the observation, and with high concentration, he successfully grasped the defensive loopholes - even if it was just a little negligence, he was able to convert it into an advantage."
"It is very important to strengthen the second-line defense; but if the front-line confrontation does not create enough threats, Lu Ke can still adapt to the game well. In fact, we can see the Green Bay Packers' defensive strategy: In today's special weather Under such circumstances, the passing accuracy and control will indeed be affected, and coupled with the incomplete receiving lineup of the visiting team's offensive team, the home team will indeed have more opportunities."
"This is indeed the case. As long as the second-line defense is strengthened and the passing route is cut off, Lu Ke's passing will be in trouble. This is a correct idea, but in the actual game, it leaves Lu Ke with too many adjustments. Instead, time has allowed Lu Ke to gradually adjust his passing touch. Now the home team’s defense team must adjust its strategy and the front line must exert more pressure. Otherwise, it will be really difficult for the home team’s defense team to gain the upper hand just by relying on tactics.”
In the studio, as a bystander looking at the overall situation from a high position, he immediately caught the key, and the teams in the tactical rooms of the two teams were no exception. The key now is: how to adjust? When is it more appropriate to make adjustments? Will your opponents lead you by the nose if you change your tactics rashly? Or should existing tactics be given more room to experiment?
On the court, the game time is still moving forward, and Lu Ke's tactical execution has not stopped.
"attack!"
It was also a multi-line offensive formation, but this time, Lu Ke adopted a different tactical arrangement. He used the trident on the right side as a cover, and while adjusting his footsteps, he passed the football to Frank Gall, who delayed the start of the beat. Think of Gall as the fourth receiver lined up on the right wing.
Selleck, Logan and Boldin have used different running routes to contain defensive players, and Lu Ke's delayed shot can win more space for Gall to advance and even break into the end zone directly.
But at this time, it is too close to the end zone. There is only a mere five yards of space. The defensive team's positioning has become more intensive, and the space for the Trident to contain the defensive players has also been compressed. Then you can see As soon as Gower caught the football, three defensive players rushed out from different directions to complete the double-team, leaving no room for Gower to advance or move.
At the critical moment, Gall maintained a positive attitude and relied on his running back body to force a breakthrough. Even though he was outnumbered and was tackled by two defensive players first, he still kept trying to find the position of the corner post and tried to touch the ball with the football. The touchdown was completed by touching the corner post; then the third defensive player swooped over and directly knocked Gower's upper body out of bounds, joining forces with his defensive teammates to end the offense.
As a result, Gower was pushed down on the one-yard line, just one yard away, just one yard, but he still failed to cut into the end zone.
One yard on third down, also a touchdown on third down.
Hubble, who was standing on the sidelines, quickly gave instructions. Amidst the thunderous noise in the audience, the conversation in Lu Ke's earphones became intermittent, which forced Lu Ke to turn his head and make gestures with Hubble. After simple communication and determining the tactics, he turned around and quickly completed the tactical arrangement.
The San Francisco 49ers made adjustments to their offensive formation - two tight ends joined the offensive line, and the front line once again accumulated seven players. Lu Ke stood in the pistol formation, and the two receivers acted like guardians on the left and right. Generally, they are positioned parallel to each other on both sides, while the running back still stands four yards behind Lu Ke.
The most obvious change is that the two wide receivers retreated from the forefront position to a position parallel to Lu Ke, and shrank inward to within the scope of pocket protection.
What kind of trick is this?
The Green Bay Packers have no time to think carefully. Defensive coach Dom Capers can only complete the red zone layout based on pre-game preparations. The lack of changes from head coach Mike McCarthy is inevitable. The whole team has been affected, but now it is time to start work and there is no turning back.
The positioning of the defensive team has also changed slightly - the three defensive frontmen and three linebackers are all lined up neatly on the first line, and there is also a linebacker and a cornerback standing on both ends of them, maintaining a standing position. The starting position also makes them have eight players in terms of forward confrontation.
The remaining three players were all concentrated in the central area, aiming at Lu Ke's position in a triangular position, with their eyes fixed on the two receivers, ready to complete the defense at any time.
In other words, the Green Bay Packers almost copied the San Francisco 49ers' formation - but in the ever-changing game, the defensive coach had no time to "copy" the tactics. This can only mean one thing, that is, Green Bay The Packers adopted a confrontational defensive tactic, making adjustments based on the positioning of the tight end and wide receiver, as well as the on-the-spot response of the defensive captain, and then copied the San Francisco 49ers' formation one-to-one. .
Matchup defense?
Lu Ke's gaze lowered following his kneeling action, and he aimed at his opponent like a hawk. Then he made his move and officially announced the kickoff.
"attack!"
Press the whole line!
The seven players on the offensive line of the San Francisco 49ers pressed forward, forming a head-on resistance; at the same time, the two receivers also blocked the outside edge of the offensive line, one on the left and one on the right. This increased the number of members of the offensive line to nine. Like a fan, it opened directly with a "swipe and pull" to form a dam, blocking all the attacks from the defensive team head-on.
Lu Ke glanced at it from the corner of his sight, and then confirmed his idea: it was indeed a counter defense!
Not only the two defensive players standing on both sides of the defensive front, but also the two defensive players standing behind, the first reaction was to move towards the running route of the wide receiver, which also made The gap in the center was exposed in front of Lu Ke's eyes.
With a turn, Lu Ke handed the football to Gower. This was not a passing attack, but a ground attack. The two receivers were deliberately setting up smoke bombs, including the running route. Between reality and reality, Lu Ke once again seized the opportunity!
