Standing in the pocket, Lu Ke could take in the entire opposite half of the field. The cold and biting wind was still raging on the surface of the skin like a hob. Even though he was concentrating on the game, he temporarily forgot about the low temperature attack, but his concentration was slightly With a little less concentration, Green Bay's wintry majesty is instantly felt again; but right now, there are more important things to deal with than the cold.
The entire Green Bay Packers defense is on the line:
In the center, three defensive forwards lined up with two outside linebackers, and on both sides of the Chuhehan boundary with the offensive forwards. The threat of pressure from the entire front line and the pass rush completely showed its fangs; on both wings, two cornerbacks also stood up. The position has been raised to the forefront, standing face to face with the two outside receivers, only one step away from each other; still in the center, the two inside linebackers have also moved their positions significantly forward, shortening the distance from the kickoff line to five Within yards.
A major threat!
The Green Bay Packers have not concealed their pressure ambitions at all. So, does this mean that the weakness of the second-line defense may become an opportunity for Lu Ke to attack?
Putting aside the possibility of the Green Bay Packers creating traps - as long as the inside linebackers and cornerbacks both retreat, then the second-line defense can gather six players, and the combination of matchup defense and zone defense can still have the upper hand; just speaking of Green Bay now Due to the Packers' advantage in frontline confrontation, the San Francisco 49ers' offensive line simply cannot provide Lu Ke with enough passing time, so a sneak attack on a long pass is impossible.
Mike Rupatti has just returned from injury, Joe Stanley and Alex Boone have minor injuries, and Jonathan Goodwin and Anthony Davis have both seen a significant decline in their status this season. In other words , Lu Ke's offensive line does lack a little bit of toughness and strength - after experiencing such a fierce game for the second consecutive week, today we still need to face the attack of the weather, and after entering the fourth quarter, we can't keep up with the rhythm. on the problem.
The advantages and disadvantages of home and away games are now particularly obvious.
The Green Bay Packers seized on the San Francisco 49ers' on-the-spot status and made a targeted tactical layout. They didn't seem to worry about their second-line defense at all. They threw their arms away to destroy Lu Ke's pass and pinched it from the root. Interrupting the San Francisco 49ers' offense, can this opportunity be considered an opportunity?
What's more, if this is the trap of the Green Bay Packers, which seems to be a surprise pass rush but is actually retreating to defend, then Lu Ke's tactics must change again.
A burst of steaming heat followed the rhythm of his breathing. Lu Ke moved the fingers of his right hand, and the thoughts in his mind surged rapidly. There was no hesitation or hesitation. After confirming his judgment and choice, he immediately stood up straight and made quick changes. In the fierce noise of Lamborghini Stadium, he continued to roar, conveying the new tactics to his teammates, and then he was ready again and announced the kick-off.
"attack!"
At the moment of kick-off, Lu Ke could feel a bloody wind rushing towards him. The cold wind mixed with the devouring bloody air rushed towards him with claws and claws.
As expected, the five-man pass rushing tactic demonstrated the Green Bay Packers' explosive confidence in the frontline confrontation, which was in sharp contrast to the stiffness and clumsiness of the opening stage; the home team did not even use a tactic of mismatch to create an advantage, but instead used A one-on-one duel that rips open the pocket protection hard.
They succeeded.
In "Five VS Five", left offensive tackle Joe Stanley and right outside linebacker Clay Matthews, right offensive guard Anthony Davis and left defensive end BJ-Raji The matchup was the most dangerous. Neither Stanley nor Anthony could hold their position. Both were forced to retreat continuously. Seeing that Matthews and Raj had already formed a breakthrough, there were obvious cracks in the pocket. The man who captured Lu Ke The opportunity is close at hand.
But neither Stanley nor Anthony were discouraged. Even though their bodies couldn't keep up with the rhythm, the two of them still held on for the last breath, using their own bodies to block their positions, like blocking stones, clumsily blocking the way of their opponents' breakthrough. Even if they could linger for a while, Just a few moments could be the difference between a game and a game.
Lu Ke said: Buy time for me.
This short sentence revealed tragedy and determination, and the surging light in those eyes was burning with the fire of "continuous fighting".
Stanley knew that he could not retreat. One step of his retreat might ruin the entire team's efforts throughout the game. He absolutely could not let down Lu Ke's trust. Although he could hardly move anymore, Stanley still gritted his teeth and used his shoulders to withstand Clay Matthews's continuous collision.
This was really, really difficult. Matthews charged unreasonably and forcefully overturned Stanley's position, and then his pocket was completely torn open.
Stanley had lost his position and his center of gravity, but there was no panic or fear in his eyes. His teeth were almost broken. During the process of the whole body collapsing, his hands remained firm. He hugged Matthews tightly and destroyed Matthews' forward momentum by dying together.
persist in!
Keep it up!
Stanley had tried his best, but Matthews was still able to break out of his position. Then a feeling of exhaustion mixed with the cold air penetrated into his pores. He still tried to grab Matthews's hand without mercy. The calf or ankle, even if it destroys Matthews' sprint rhythm, is still good.
In the end, Matthews stepped on the back of Stanley's hand, completely threw Stanley away, and sprinted towards Lu Ke.
"I tried my best, Bambi, I really tried my best, I'm sorry." All the strength in Stanley's body was drained, his lungs were violently pulled like bellows, and the hot air made the entire chest burn, as if thousands of As if an embroidery needle was piercing him at the same time, his brain suddenly fell into darkness, and his whole body suddenly collapsed to the ground.
Stanley's eyes still did not leave Matthews' footsteps: Did he buy enough time for Lu Ke?
…
Lu Ke was retreating in an orderly manner, steadily widening the distance, keeping his field of vision clear and unobstructed, and taking in all the confrontations between the offensive and defensive lines.
Seeing that Matthews and Raj were about to form a breakthrough, Lu Ke made a quick judgment on the entire confrontation situation and moved quickly in the direction of Matthews. What seemed like a sheep's mouth but a clever move in the direction of Matthews. A small arc was drawn from behind, which avoided Matthews' "hunting" range. It also forced Matthews to adjust his center of gravity and change the direction of attack, further buying Lu Ke time to move.
Matthews was entangled with Stanley. Although he successfully knocked Stanley away, he was never able to completely get rid of him. During the stumble, his forward steps could not keep up with Lu Ke's rhythm.
Seeing Lu Ke go around Matthews, Matthews changed direction; then, Lu Ke made an emergency braking action, quickly turned back and moved laterally to the right, and instantly increased his speed. ——The instant explosive release allowed Lu Ke to quickly shake off Matthews.
Matthews also tried to complete the sack, but his footsteps were caught by Stanley. He stumbled and changed his center of gravity and direction. The result was that his footsteps were chaotic, his rhythm and speed were completely chaotic, and he could only watch Lu Ke widen the distance between him and himself. , using pocket steps to regain passing space.
"Damn it!" Matthews felt his anger begin to burn.
Lu Ke didn't notice Matthews' mood at all. During his rapid lateral movement, he already had an idea of Raj breaking through Anthony with all his strength.
However, Raj did not have the explosive power of Matthews, and could not break through Anthony's flesh and blood for the time being. The distance between him and Lu Ke was only an arm's length, but because he was separated from Anthony, he could not attack further.
Just when Raj was about to destroy Lu Ke's passing balance by hitting a cow from across the mountain, he saw Lu Ke raising his right hand and waving his forearm quickly, making a passing gesture. This made Raj immediately alert and gave up. Instead of struggling for a breakthrough, he raised his hands high and jumped on the spot, hoping to destroy the passing parabola. Even if there was no way, at least he could destroy Lu Ke's passing line of sight.
But... Lu Ke immediately retracted his right hand, without stopping at all, and then moved laterally to the right again, taking the initiative to run out of the pocket.
It's actually a fake move!
And Raj had no time to be upset. Because of his blocking action, Anthony had already regained his breath, and like holding a sandbag, he pressed Raj's body with his shoulders, carrying Raj forward and pushing forward immediately. By repairing the broken pocket again, Raj lost the opportunity to put pressure on Lu Ke.
The description of the whole process is full of countless crises, but in the actual game, it only takes less than two seconds:
From the moment the kickoff was faced with a serious crisis of a pass rush attack, to Lu Ke taking the initiative during the retreat, narrowly avoiding Matthews' sack attack, and then using emergency braking to complete the turnaround run, and then to During the lateral movement, he used a fake pass to shake off Raj's strong pressure, and finally took the initiative to run laterally to the right side and leave the pocket.
Lu Ke's footsteps took a long detour, as if he was standing on the edge of a cliff without realizing that he was standing on the edge of an abyss. He boldly found a glimmer of hope in the stormy waves. When his footsteps got rid of the protection of his pocket, he also got rid of it. The defensive team pounced on the pass rush crisis and won themselves a passing space.
At this time, the Green Bay Packers defensive team realized that Lu Ke actually used himself as bait and formulated a simplified version of the screen short passing tactic-the tactics of the quarterback and the offensive line were separated, but it was precisely This tactical departure successfully deceived the judgment of the defensive team, and then used his footsteps and fake movements to attract the attention of the defensive force. The ultimate goal is still to complete the pass.
Seemingly in danger, but actually carefully calculated, Lu Ke once again showed the appearance of the undrafted rookie in the 2011 season with the attitude of "a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers". His bloody spirit at critical moments firmly held the initiative in his hands.
So, who is the target of Lu Ke's short pass?
