Facing the first ten yards again, Lu Ke chose to fake a pass and successfully passed the linebackers with a fake passing movement, buying time for the offensive line to clear the ground. After Gower caught the football, he made a chaotic formation in the middle. He broke out and successfully advanced five yards before being surrounded and fell to the ground.
At five yards in the second gear, Lu Ke once again disrupted the balance of offense and defense with a quick kick and a quick shot. He passed the football to Crabtree with just a drop of his hand. Unfortunately, Lu Ke's shot was a little faster. Some of them forced Crabtree to fail to catch the ball completely. After completing the ball, he was directly tackled by cornerback Maxwell. He was unable to continue to advance, but was pushed back.
At the same time, the referee's yellow flag interrupted the game and announced the penalty:
"During the passing process, a pulling foul was committed. The defensive team, number 25, lost five yards based on the line of scrimmage, which means winning the first attack. The offensive team, first gear. Please reset the game time to sixteen Second."
The Century Chain Stadium was filled with boos.
Although the home fans expressed strong dissatisfaction, the referee's decision was not controversial. This was an obvious pulling foul.
The Seattle Seahawks' No. 25 is Richard Sherman. During the pass defense, he committed an obvious pulling foul. He pulled Logan's arm and jersey and refused to let go. Apparently, he got a little angry. , expressed his dissatisfaction with the last wave of offensive and defensive receptions, and his actions were a bit outrageous.
Gradually, gradually, Lu Ke's game rhythm began to change drastically, interrupting the inertia of the Seattle Seahawks defensive team, forcing both sides to leave their comfort zones, and must make more judgments based on pre-game preparations and deployments. and more reactions, adding variables to the game.
The Seattle Seahawks' entire defensive scheme has some similarities and some differences -
The defensive front still adopts a four-man pass rush and abandons the tactical surprise attack of sacking the quarterback. Instead, it concentrates its efforts on constantly applying pressure and uses four defensive fronts to create destructive power.
Carroll knew that such a tactic would definitely give Lu Ke more space to pass the ball, and he failed to try to sack the quarterback and then cut off Lu Ke's pass from the source; but after two playoff games, Lu Ke He has proven his growth and progress. Even if the pocket protection is torn, he can still complete the pass on the move. However, a defensive team that invests too much in frontline raids will face the dilemma of empty second-line defense.
Of course, the second-line defense guarded by the Legion of Detonation will naturally not be afraid of any quarterback, but Carroll also has his own calculation: Should he take the risk of applying more pressure on the front line, and then let Lu Ke single out the Legion of Demolition; or Balance the defense and compress Lu Ke's passing space in the backcourt?
He chose the latter.
Because the Seattle Seahawks' defensive front also has the league's top capabilities, even if there are only four pass rushers, they can gradually gain the upper hand in collisions again and again, bringing strong pressure to the quarterback - not to mention, The San Francisco 49ers' offensive line has indeed declined this season. This also means that the Seattle Seahawks can still maintain pressure on the front line, and can even create sack opportunities among the four pass rushers. At the same time, they will also create more trouble for Lu Ke's passing in the backcourt. This It is undoubtedly a more cost-effective defensive tactical choice.
The obvious change lies in the use of linebackers: compared to ground defense, it is more inclined to pass defense, allowing the Legion's defense to retreat, leaving a short passing area for the linebackers to cover the defense.
In this regard, Lu Ke's tactical layout was the first to make partial adjustments, adding fake moves, increasing the residence time inside the pocket, and increasing the frequency of ground attacks and short passing attacks. All tactical changes are to attract linebackers. They took the initiative to press forward, breaking the Seattle Seahawks' pre-game plan; at the same time, they made full use of the opponent's situation of only four pass rushers, making tactical arrangements in advance to gain some advantages in the forward duel, and then completed the advancement with quick short passes and ground attacks. .
The only exception was the mid-pass connection with Logan just now.
In other words, Lu Ke's entire tactical thinking is very clear - even though it has just begun, he has already quickly completed the adjustment, not only gaining an advantage for the visiting team's offensive team, but also breaking the explosive legion's ability to cover the entire field. Dilemma: Sherman is just the appetizer.
really!
Although Crabtree was tackled by Maxwell in time, the pressure felt by the second-line defense in the backcourt was rising steadily. Sherman's foul was the product of a mixture of personal emotions and overall pressure. Directly gave the San Francisco 49ers a first down.
"Can you believe it? This is still the first wave of offense for the San Francisco 49ers in this game!"
In the studio, Teddy Williams couldn't help but chuckle. There was inevitably some excitement in his words and expression. The exciting game was undoubtedly the best catalyst.
"To be precise, both the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers only completed one wave of offense in the first quarter. Now there are only sixteen seconds left before the end of the first quarter, and the San Francisco 49ers offense team still stays on the field and continues to attack. , if nothing else happens, the Seattle Seahawks will enter the second quarter with a '7:0' advantage."
“Both sides in the National League finals looked very calm and calm. The first wave of offense was rooted in the ground and launched the attack. There was no impatience or panic. They looked for passing opportunities in a solid and stable offensive state. This made the offensive and defensive confrontation consume a lot of time. So much so that the first wave of offensive and defensive exchanges has not ended yet.”
"The Seattle Seahawks offense spent eight minutes and 34 seconds to score a touchdown; now the San Francisco 49ers offense has spent nearly six minutes and ten seconds and still hasn't finished the offense."
"For the audience, this conflict battle is indeed exciting!"
Standing on the 25-yard line, facing the first ten yards, Lu Ke once again completed a quick short pass. This time the target of the pass was Marcus, who came on the rotation!
After the kickoff, Marcus quickly passed by Lu Ke, followed closely behind Crabtree and Selleck, and pushed forward with all his strength along the slot; the two receiving players tried their best to move towards the ball five to ten yards away. The area advanced hard, but Marcus cut inward to the right side with light steps. After sliding into the central area, he came to the vacuum zone between the defensive front and the linebacker. He stopped and turned around to catch the ball. A three-yard short pass sent by Lu Ke.
The parabola of the entire rugby ball is very light and will cross the confrontation area between the two forwards. Although defensive tackle Brandon Mayborn was on his right hand trying to destroy the pass, he was still half a beat too slow and could not keep up with Lu Ke's shooting rhythm. , just watching the football pass by.
Marcus just adjusted his steps to catch the football, turned around and broke through with all his strength towards the central area.
In the second half of this season, because both Gall and Marcus are in average condition, Lu Ke is also using less running back catching tactics to open up the situation and relying more on the two tight ends to pass the ball in short passes. Zone vision breaks through, and the running back's slot movement often exists as a cover tactic.
At the critical moment, Lu Ke once again passed the football to Marcus, once again breaking the expectations of the Seattle Seahawks defensive team. Outside linebacker Wright and safety guard Chancellor immediately noticed the connection between Lu Ke and Marcus. line, but their center of gravity was pulled to the other side by Selleck, and their reaction speed was inevitably slightly slower.
Chancellor was the first to swoop over.
Marcus lowered his center of gravity and pulled half a step laterally to the right, forcing Chancellor's first dive to miss the target accurately. Despite this, Chancellor still refused to respond before he completely landed and lost control. The scratching ground pulled Marcus' calf, creating enough time for Wright to make up defense.
Marcus continued to use high-leg movements to disrupt Chancellor's entanglement. Facing Wright's follow-up defense, he raised his left hand to block. In the midst of the chaos, he still gritted his teeth and continued to advance, step by step. ! One more step! Even Chancellor and Wright double-teamed at the same time, but they were not able to bring down Marcus immediately. It was not until cornerback Maxwell also caught up and completed the superposition from behind that Marcus' advance was ended.
Advance a full eight yards!
The Seattle Seahawks' defense was still very timely and never allowed a large number of yards. This significantly slowed down the San Francisco 49ers' offensive efficiency; but the home team's defensive team failed to stop the visiting team's offensive team from advancing -
Even after setting up a dragnet, the opponent continued the forward momentum with an extremely tough attitude. Especially the defensive rhythm was never able to keep up with the changes in the offense. This made the two sides in a head-to-head confrontation. Seattle Sea had the upper hand with absolute strength. The Eagles surprisingly failed to establish an immediate advantage.
"What on earth is that guy planning?" Chancellor gritted his teeth unhappily and glared at Lu Ke fiercely. He always felt that the other party seemed to be "shooting and changing places". It didn't seem like he had any regular offensive tactics. The combination created an advantageous situation invisibly. If Lu Ke was just attacking as he pleased, amateur fans would not believe it. However, Chancellor could not judge what was going on.
This feeling is very frustrating.
Then, the first quarter was over.
After the two sides exchanged venues, the San Francisco 49ers continued to attack. Faced with a two-yard situation on second gear, Lu Ke suddenly used a trick attack.
"attack!"
Following Lu Ke's kick-off slogan, Boldin, who was originally standing on the outside of the multi-line offensive formation on the right wing, began to retreat, not forward but backward. He took two steps back and came to the space between Lu Ke and Marcus. In the gear area, he quickly ran sideways from right to left, forming a cross-position with Marcus who was running sideways to the right.
At the same time, after Lu Ke caught the football, he turned around and threw the ball backward. So, was the target of the throw ball, Boldin or Marcus?
Also, why throw the ball backward? This is obviously a smoke bomb trap, but the problem is that even though they know it is a trap, they still can't decipher it. So, what should the defensive team do?
