Forward. Shake. Forward. Shake.
Logan made full use of the offensive team's advantage in taking the initiative, constantly changing the focus, forcing Sherman's rhythm to be unable to stabilize. Although the advancement speed was affected, Logan also firmly grasped the matchup. Taking the initiative, pulling Sherman's "reins", and then... letting go!
Logan braked suddenly without warning, just like letting go of the reins. Sherman was thrown out instantly. It took him half a beat to brake, but a small gap of two yards was already formed between the two. Neutral.
If it were another quarterback, the passing accuracy would be slightly off, and the mere two-yard gap would not be enough. Even if Sherman loses his position, he can always turn around to make up for it, or even complete the pass before the target. Interception, this is not impossible, because the two-yard space is really too narrow.
But the quarterback standing on the field at this time is Lu Ke, the quarterback in the entire league who knows Sherman's abilities best and is the best at creating gaps.
It is precisely because Lu Ke understands how dangerous and terrifying Sherman's abilities are that every pass requires more calculation and more control. This is why Lu Ke has never been afraid of passing the ball in Sherman's direction: He won't be afraid, but he won't be rash either. He only takes action when he sees the opportunity.
For example, now.
After Logan got rid of Sherman in an instant, he turned around and saw the football drawing a small arc. It seemed unhurried but in fact it was spinning towards his position at high speed - accurately. , thirteen yards is thirteen yards, the deviation is less than half a yard. Logan only needs to take a step back, jump up, and then he can easily put the football into his arms and complete the ball steadily.
Sherman's reaction speed was very, very fast. He completed the second effort only a quarter of a beat later, forced to change his center of gravity, turned around and flew towards Logan. Logan's body was still in the air. Xie Mann had already grabbed Logan's waist and brought Logan down instantly.
Attack, end.
It must be noted that Logan is a tight end!
Generally speaking, tight ends can often form an advantage when facing cornerbacks, but the Seattle Seahawks are an exception. Sherman will never be inferior when facing tight ends. His instant explosiveness and physical confrontation can form a head-on confrontation. , leaving no room for Logan to escape at all.
That's what Sherman is capable of.
Although Sherman has never won against Lu Ke in his entire career, Sherman's ability is an absolute powerhouse that is talked about by the entire league.
After grabbing Logan and falling to the ground, Sherman stood up, bulged his biceps like Popeye, and roared at the fans, but it was not clear whether Sherman was celebrating or being angry. Anger - Although Sherman completed the defense immediately, Logan successfully caught the 13-yard pass and easily got the first offense for the San Francisco 49ers. Eight yards on the second gear was not difficult at all.
Even Troy Aikman, who was in the studio as a guest commentator for the third consecutive week, couldn't help but cheer.
"pretty!"
"The passing connection between Lu Ke and Newman is still excellent! Facing Sherman, the league's No. 1 cornerback, Lu Ke easily found Newman with a precise pass. There was only a one-step gap, but Sherman didn't have any Given the opportunity, Newman completed the ball cleanly and continued the San Francisco 49ers' offensive momentum."
"Wow, even Drew Bruce was never able to find his touch in the divisional round. He didn't score his first touchdown until the fourth quarter; but for Lu Ke, this is not a problem. Facing the third team of the season, The enemy in the same division played against him for the first time. He entered the state very quickly, and the entire offensive rhythm was always changing, forcing the Seattle Seahawks to continue to adjust. There was no way to stop the visiting team's offensive team."
"In the blink of an eye, the San Francisco 49ers have reached the 40-yard line in Seattle's half. Even facing the league's No. 1 defensive team this season, Lu Ke still calmly breaks through. The offensive success rate so far is It still reached 100%! Sure enough, this is the National League finals we were looking forward to, and the conflict battle has officially begun!"
…
“Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!”
"This offense and defense must give applause to the Seattle Seahawks defense! Facing the continuous changes of the San Francisco 49ers' offense, the home team's defense chose to take the initiative and put on a six-man pass rush posture. In fact, it was still Four guys rushing the passer, two outside linebackers targeting the quarterback.”
"If the quarterback chooses to hold the ball by himself, then they will try to step up and sack him. The glaring threat also forced Lu Ke to hand the football to Gall, and the two outside linebackers Wright and Irvin also immediately Forming a outflank on Gower, although Gower shook off Wright's tackle, he still had to face the blockage of inside linebacker Wagner and safety guard Chancellor. In the end, he was unable to advance and was tackled at the line of scrimmage. superior."
"Wonderful! Really wonderful!"
"The Seattle Seahawks defense once again showed excellent form, especially Chancellor. His figure was running all over the field and he could be seen in almost every corner. At present, the offense and defense still maintain a subtle stalemate. For Lu Ke to complete the touchdown in one go, it can be said that Chancellor deserves a lot of credit!"
"This is the first time the San Francisco 49ers' offense has been blocked in this game! Ten yards on second down!"
Chancellor cast a vicious look at Lu Ke, trying to start a fight, but found that Lu Ke was completely focused on his own thoughts——
Lu Ke stood there at this time, tilting his head slightly, with an expressionless face, as if he was reminiscing about the offensive and defensive duel just now, just like a robot in some science fiction movie, implanting all the movement routes of the defensive players into his mind, and carried out Analysis and calculation, this made Chancellor shudder again, "Abnormal!" (first release, domain name (please remember_三
Array again.
Facing the second gear and ten yards, Lu Ke still didn't have much fluctuation. He quickly completed the formation, cleared the backcourt and set up a shotgun formation. There were three receivers on the left and two receivers on the right. From the corner of his sight, He quickly checked the position of the defensive team, and then announced the kickoff immediately.
"attack!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The receiving players on the left and right sides all rushed forward, and the running routes were all moving in the far-reaching direction of the mid-pass area and even the long-pass area. Coupled with Lu Ke's shotgun formation, it seemed to have made it clear that this was a long pass. Attack, forcing the Bomb Legion to respond.
But if you look carefully, you can find that there are actually hidden changes in the seemingly unchanged route running. The two players Logan and Gall standing on the inside took the initiative to face the two outside linebackers, forming a confrontation. , using their bodies to get stuck in position; the two wide receivers Boldin and Crabtree standing on the outside bypassed their opposing cornerbacks, looking for gaps, and continued to advance forward, thus forcing the two safeties Wei also had to make adjustments.
So, what is the purpose of such a route layout?
Garrett Selleck!
Before the kickoff, Selleck lined up next to Gower, alongside offensive tackle Joe Stanley, easily creating the impression that Gower was the sixth offensive lineman and Selleck was the regular receiver. The player's illusion; but after the actual kickoff, both Selleck and Gall rushed out, both of them were receiving players, thus disrupting the matchup of the Seattle Seahawks defensive team.
Selleck glanced at inside linebacker Bobby Wagner out of the corner of his eye, only to find that all of Wagner's attention was focused on Gower, forming a "two-on-one" situation with outside linebacker Irvin, and he didn't even notice. Selleck's position also makes Selleck's running lighter.
One forward and one outside, sprinting quickly along a 45-degree diagonal. In the blink of an eye, he had rushed five yards from the vertical distance. Then he adjusted his steps and turned around. Then he saw that Lu Ke's pass had been delivered. come over:
Behind the shoulder shadow pass.
Selleck blocked his position in advance. Even if a defensive player rushed over, he was able to use his physical advantage to complete the pass. What's more, there were no defensive players at this time - the judgment of the Blast Legion appeared again After a mistake, even the linebackers were unable to cover up in time, so Selleck created a gap, which also created conditions for the pass connection. starter
Selleck stabilized his posture with just one step adjustment, and then you could see Lu Ke's bullet pass being pushed over, hitting his chest like a shock wave. Selleck didn't even need to make any adjustments, just put his hands on it. The ball can be caught in the chest; even the power control is perfect. Selleck only needs one step back to remove all the power and continue to advance.
It can be seen that Lu Ke, who has always been troubled by arm injuries, is now close to his best condition, and the impact of his arm injuries is getting weaker and weaker.
"boom!"
Selleck caught the football, then retreated and turned with the force of the pass. From the corner of his vision, he could see Wagner and Chancellor sprinting towards him.
It's Chancellor again!
But Selleck did not waver at all. He hugged the football tightly, bent his knees slightly, lowered his center of gravity, and continued to run forward. The power of his kicking completely exploded, and then he collided directly with Chancellor. , however, Selleck, who was prepared in advance, took advantage of Chancellor's impact and turned around 360 degrees. Not only did he remove Chancellor's collision force, but he also took a big step forward.
Danger! Danger! Danger! In danger of going out of bounds! Selleck's steps were faltering beside the sideline. Chancellor's powerful impact made it impossible for Selleck's center of gravity to remain stable, but he still gritted his teeth and made full use of inertia and centrifugal force to push his body forward, and then Just like that, he took a big step, almost rushing forward like an antelope leaping.
With this big step, the first attack is achieved!
Immediately afterwards, cornerback Maxwell had already thrown away Crabtree, and with a push pushed Selleck, who had lost his balance, directly to the sideline, ending this wave of advancement.
