Third gear and five yards.
At the beginning of overtime, the San Francisco 49ers defensive team increased their intensity and rhythm, exerting enough pressure on the defensive front, repeatedly forcing Rogers to dance wildly on the tip of the knife, and concentrate on the strong collision. The defensive team showed its profound knowledge over the past three seasons!
What's more, the head-to-head confrontation between the Green Bay Packers' offense and the San Francisco 49ers' defense in this game was originally a thin-ice duel. After Rodgers repeatedly improved his condition, he took the advantage in the second half, but the weak advantage could be lost at any time. May be directly overturned by the defensive team.
The San Francisco 49ers defensive team has created too many third-gear dilemmas and fourth-gear desperation. Unfortunately, the third-gear defense is always unable to flow smoothly, and Rogers can always find a breakthrough. It always lacks the final shot. The final kick resulted in the game being unable to be won.
Now, the opportunity arises again!
The San Francisco 49ers defense team is constantly adjusting its pace and rhythm, and is gradually taking up the entire front line position. All three defensive forwards and three linebackers are already standing on the first line, leaving only one inside linebacker. Navarro Bowman moved alone about two yards behind him, his eyes fixed on Eddie Lacy - although in this game, Lacy's performance was not as strong as in the regular season. But with just a little bit of negligence, Rexi might explode, and Navolo would never take it lightly.
In addition, the two cornerbacks and the two safety guards retreated with all their strength and joined forces to cover the short passing area and the intermediate passing area in a zone defensive posture——
Just like no one will underestimate Lu Ke's passing ability, Rogers' passing ability is definitely among the best in the league. This has been proven by many third-level defenses in this game, especially cornerback Carroll- Rodgers' side has been torn apart by Rodgers' rhythm-control passes many times. Now that it has entered overtime, he also needs to be more vigilant and fully focused.
The atmosphere in the game has passed the boiling point and continues to heat up.
Aldon Smith stood at the forefront of the defensive front, parallel to the defensive front. Standing directly opposite two yards away was wide receiver Jordy Nelson, who is also a super killer with the ability to vertically strike in deep areas. Being able to be among the top ranks in the league also makes Aldon dare not take it lightly.
Because the Green Bay Packers set up a multi-line offensive formation, they placed three players on the left side of the San Francisco 49ers. Nelson stood in the center, with wide receiver James Jones and tight end Andrew - standing on both sides. Quares, this also forces the defensive team to pay more attention to this side.
At this time, Aldon's eyes were completely locked on Nelson, and Nelson kept looking back at Rogers, seemingly ready to kick off the attack and receive the ball. Intentionally or unintentionally, Aldon's eyes also followed Nelson towards Rodgers' direction shot over.
Aldon could notice that Rodgers was ready to kick off - Rodgers kept looking towards the wide receiver Randall Cobb on the other side, seeming to suggest that he might complete the connection with Cobb. , but is this a smoke bomb? Or is it the actual tactical arrangement?
Only the quarterback can know the specific situation. However, Aldon can be sure that his position is outside Rogers' radar.
Aldon decided to test it out. He moved towards his right side in small steps. Then Rogers noticed it and Aldon stopped again. When Rogers looked away again, Aldon continued to move. He took two steps - just like a cat-and-mouse game where you push and I block. Then Aldon glanced at Nelson again, only to find that Nelson was not moved at all, and was about to move forward with all his strength.
In fact, Aldon knew that his actions could not go unnoticed, but in fact both the offense and defense were testing the situation to see whose improvisation could gain the upper hand.
Rogers didn't seem to want to bother Aldon anymore, and immediately announced the kickoff, "Attack!"
Aldon, who kept his whole body tense, did not hesitate at all, and made a choice in an instant. He stepped forward and cut in, and at the same time lowered his center of gravity and rushed towards James Jones; while Jordy Nelson stayed behind. Safety guard Eric Reed forms a matchup.
This is a misplaced defense that was discussed in advance!
But Aldon's movements still did not stop. After he bumped into Jones with a shoulder-sinking movement, Jones's immediate acceleration was destroyed. Then he twisted his waist and missed Jones' subsequent collision. After letting Jones run away, his footsteps crossed the offensive line's pocket protection area and made a diagonal thrust from the side, like a sharp dagger, instantly tearing open the Green Bay Packers' pocket.
At the same time, the San Francisco 49ers defensive front adopted a staggered pass-rushing tactic with four people stepping forward, and continued to push the pocket forward in the posture of a tiger going downhill. Rogers' pocket immediately closed up quickly, and the pressure was fast and efficient. Rodgers had to step back again to create distance, and at the same time swept the entire court looking for a passing target. In just one or two seconds, the entire pocket became fragmented.
Then, Ardon had already arrived.
detour.
Another detour.
With light and agile steps, Aldon continuously bypassed the tangled confrontation between two offensive linemen and his teammates. Then Rogers was completely exposed in front of him, but Aldon's brain remained calm, without excitement or excitement. , but concentrated on pushing hard on the ground, instantly releasing the speed.
Rogers noticed Aldon's approach, and he immediately raised his right hand and tried to send the football out with a quick swing of his forearm; but there was a blocker in front of him - Justin Smith.
Justin used a dislocation to knock away the offensive guard's position, and continued to charge with great momentum, preparing to put pressure on Rogers by beating a bull from a mountain. At this time, he caught Rogers raising his hand to pass the ball, and the experienced Justin immediately took the lead. He raised his right hand, suppressed the opponent with a shoulder collision, and quickly waved his right hand to destroy Rogers' passing line.
Because the distance between Rogers and Justin has been shortened to within half a yard, this not only completely interrupts Rogers' passing vision, but also makes Rogers' passing arc lose the possibility of shooting from a low point to find a short pass connection.
Under conditioned reflex, Rogers withdrew his right hand and prepared to run out of the pocket with his feet, looking for the possibility of passing the ball again. However, Aldon's forward speed and strength far exceeded imagination; before Rogers' right hand could be retracted, it was unreasonable. He raised his hand to interrupt Rogers' movement, and the huge impact was suppressed.
"Yes!"
In the midst of the storm, Aldon saw Rogers' figure. All eyes were focused on the football in Rogers' hands. He gritted his teeth and unleashed all his strength. There was only one thought in his mind now, that It's "pass breaking."
Kick the ground! Charge forward! Fly!
Aldon stood on tiptoe and threw his entire body out. He bumped into Rogers' right hand without hesitation. Then he grabbed Rogers' arm with both hands. He concentrated all his strength and inertia and pulled down harder and harder. Then the whole world began to turn upside down. Aldon and Rogers both rolled into a ball and fell to the ground.
…
Crash! Crash! Crash!
Justin Smith continued to push forward like a bull, and caught Aldon's figure in the corner of his vision. Seeing that his teammate was about to complete the sack, Justin quickly raised his right hand and waved it hard, destroying Rogers' passing line of sight; In fact, Justin was already a little exhausted at this time. After the explosive power released in an instant reached its peak, the stamina was slightly insufficient, but he still relied on the breath held in his mouth and went all out to hold his position. .
The next second, Justin's sight caught Aldon's full downward movement. He could clearly see the football leaving Rogers' control, and there was only one thought in his mind: interception!
Justin himself didn't know where a powerful force burst out from inside his body. He clenched his teeth and let out a dull roar, "Ahhh!" Then like Hercules, he hit him directly with his shoulder. He opened the offensive player in front of him and completely squeezed out of his position with one step. The opponent lost his center of gravity and was teetering. But Justin didn't care at all. He only had the football in his sight and stepped forward at full speed in the direction of the football.
But the football fell much faster than expected, and it fell quickly before Justin took a step.
Justin's eyes followed the falling curve of the football intently, and he was about to bend down to pick up the dropped ball. However, he did not expect that the football fell on Rogers' toes. Rogers, who was in the process of being sacked and fell, completed the fall unintentionally. He made a bump in a football and the football bounced back.
One step up.
A stretched out hand.
Justin didn't make any pause at all, his eyes followed the ups and downs of the rugby ball, and he picked up the rugby ball in his arms as he continued to move forward.
Caught it!
He caught it!
He really caught it!
Justin held the football tightly with both hands, as if grasping the driftwood of life, and then rushed forward with all his strength regardless.
"Kick the ground! Justin, kick the ground!"
Justin roared crazily at himself in the back of his mind. His legs, which were like lead, erupted with an incredible amount of energy. He kicked the ground hard step by step. His whole body sprinted forward in the strong wind. Just hold on. , just hold on a little longer and it will be fine!
Fifteen yards!
Ten yards!
Five yards!
Justin burst out with unprecedented speed, running towards the end zone crazily, enthusiastically and focused, and then he was involved in the end zone like a hurricane.
Touchdown, got it!
