Stormy weather! Stormy waves! Overwhelming!
The Seattle Seahawks only used four people to rush the pass and created an incredibly huge threat. Even with one person missing, they still used their strong personal abilities to create a strong impact, forcefully forcing the San Francisco 49ers' offensive line to attack. Lost position while retreating.
Danger is coming!
The top seed in the National League once again showed unparalleled personal ability and truly defeated the ten conferences with one effort. Even though Lu Ke made arrangements for the offensive line in advance, it was still difficult to make up for the gap in strength and ability in the strong confrontation. The four-man rush Chuan had already gained a clear advantage in the forward confrontation; but when facing such a crisis again, Lu Ke was no longer unprepared.
He stepped back in advance to create distance. While carefully observing the offensive and defensive duel and looking for passing routes, he also had an understanding of the confrontation between the forwards from the corner of his eyes. Then he could clearly feel the Seattle Seahawks' instant acceleration and pressure on the pass. With momentum, he took the initiative to run out of the pocket to his left without hesitation - because Lu Ke knew that the Seattle Seahawks' defensive front line had the ability to sack him, and he couldn't take any chances.
Reacting one shot in advance finally gave Lu Ke a chance to survive. As soon as he left, Anthony Davis and Alex Boone on the outside of the right wing had already lost their positions, and the entire pocket collapsed. A corner; but Lu Ke is no longer in the pocket.
At the same time, Mike Rupati's position protruded back like a brick, trying to intercept Lu Ke's running by hitting a cow from across the mountain, but Rupati finally supported him a little more, and that's all. After a little while, Lu Ke successfully took a small step back and escaped again.
Seeing that the defensive striker was about to chase after him again, he once again fell behind Lu Ke's abacus - Lu Ke immediately passed the ball.
There was no hesitation or hesitation. The whole thought was completely ahead of the changes in the defensive team, avoiding precarious entanglements and completing the game in the simplest and most efficient way.
Lu Ke's footsteps moved quickly and laterally out of the pocket, exposing himself in front of the defensive players. Lu Ke's footsteps deliberately paused for a moment, and his eyes scanning the entire field alerted the Seattle Seahawks' second-line defense - they would not forget Lu Ke. He adheres to the ability to run with the ball, but this moment of vigilance caused the pace of the defense to stop. It was just a fleeting pause, and he couldn't even complete the movement of inhaling, but in terms of rhythm Losing the original rhythm, Lu Ke didn't even need to take a step and raised his hand to complete the pass.
A full parabola rose quickly, and all the defensive players followed the flight path of the football and began to turn their heads. Only then did they realize that there was a serious leak in their defense!
How can this be!
…
The San Francisco 49ers set up a balanced two-by-two offensive formation. What slightly broke the left-right balance was Marcus Lynch, who came on the rotation, standing parallel to the left side of Lu Ke.
Following Lu Ke's kick-off command, Crabtree on the outside of the left wing and Gene on the outside of the right wing both rushed forward in a vertical straight direction. Crabtree was strong and heavy, while Gene was light and agile. He has his own characteristics. He continues to rush forward in his own way on the established route, pushing left and right towards the deep end zone, hitting the end zone vertically, and seeking touchdowns in the simplest way.
Interestingly, neither cornerback was guarding the two wide receivers.
Sherman, who was facing Gene, noticed Lu Ke's footsteps moving laterally towards the other side. The line of sight between him and Lu Ke was interrupted by the entanglement of the two forward lines, so that he could not clearly see what Lu Ke was doing - he had no way to see it. Clear also means that Lu Ke cannot see clearly, so it will be very difficult for Lu Ke to pass the ball to Gene, so Sherman did not stick to Gene's position, but cruised in front of the end zone.
For Crabtree, Maxwell also noticed Lu Ke's initiative to leave the pocket, and also noticed the running routes of other offensive players, which made him have to be more vigilant, slow down slightly, and prepare to defend Lu Ke. Rushing with the ball, and Lu Ke's quick short pass - within five yards of the short passing area, the San Francisco 49ers arranged at least two receiving points, which they cannot take lightly.
At this time, you can see the variety of the San Francisco 49ers' offensive tactics.
In view of the characteristics of the Seattle Seahawks defensive team that uses position as the defensive point rather than players as the defensive target, coupled with the previous tactics of quick short passes and quick shots, which continued to cause harassment, the San Francisco 49ers' running route was at this time. It is reported that there are large-scale mobilizations in the area.
Logan, who was on the inside of the right wing, made a forward cut and quickly sprinted towards the central area. Not only did he drag Wright, who was defending him, to run over, but he also forced Wagner and Chancellor to pay close attention. Chancellor Le hesitated for a moment and began to retreat, trying to defend Crabtree who just passed by.
Vernon on the inside of the left wing copied and pasted Logan's running route. When Logan rushed forward to the center, Vernon had already reached the sideline, forcing the opposing Irving to lose his original position, and with it Cornerback Maxwell also had to stop, hesitating whether to help defend Vernon or Logan, and did not dare to act rashly.
At this time, the entire offensive and defensive confrontation became clear. Wright versus Logan, Irvin versus Vernon, Sherman versus Gene, and the positions of Wagner, Chancellor, and Maxwell were all restrained. They worked together to cover a short ten-yard area in the red zone, but they were a little hesitant. On the one hand, they were worried about Lu Ke's possibility of attacking with the ball on the ground, and on the other hand, they were worried about Lu Ke's dazzling pass fake cover——
They firmly believe in their own abilities and the team's ability to help defend. The offensive space in the red zone is very limited. When Lu Ke passes the ball, they can choose to step up accordingly. However, they can quickly reach the position in just two to three steps, and then whether it is to destroy the pass or immediately tackle it, There is no problem with holding the ball or even intercepting it. What's more, the four-man pass rush gives them enough manpower to form a one-on-one position now, right?
The only loophole should be...Crabtree? Chancellor noticed this and retreated slightly. As long as Lu Ke dared to pass the ball towards Crabtree, Chancellor dared to use his physical advantage to try to intercept. What's more, the Seattle Seahawks bombed The Blasters also have Earl Thomas, who is covering the entire field by himself!
Indeed, after Crabtree got rid of Maxwell, Thomas immediately crossed over to fill the gap and defended Crabtree personally without any mistakes.
Four receiving players need to face seven defensive players. In addition to one-on-one defense, Wagner, Chancellor and Maxwell were not able to start defense immediately. That was to make decisions according to Lu Ke's tactics. Act on the spot, because Lu Ke is really too cunning and treacherous.
Wait, isn't there supposed to be only four receivers? So... Lu Ke passed the football toward the front of the left end zone at this time. Who did they miss?
Answer: Marcus Lynch!
No one noticed Marcus because Marcus was a running back and because the San Francisco 49ers ran very secretive routes:
At the moment of kick-off, Crabtree on the outside went straight forward, and Vernon on the inside stepped out from behind Crabtree at a small diagonal of 25 degrees. The two completed a cross run without touching each other; At this moment, Marcus completed his run with a light and concealed movement.
Marcus first followed Vernon closely, moving from the inside to the outside together; when the two people's positions came to the position behind Crabtree, Vernon continued to run along the diagonal toward the sideline, and Marcus changed direction and followed Crabtree's footsteps.
Irvin, who was facing Vernon, noticed the little tail, but failed to divert his attention. He hoped that Wagner would notice Marcus' running, but Wagner's attention was attracted by Lu Ke. This was Lu Ke's initiative. The reasons for running out of the pocket - either drawing the linebacker up for a sack or forcing the linebacker to stay in place to defend the quarterback's run with the ball - allowed Marcus to get away with it.
Maxwell, who was facing Crabtree, didn't notice the little tail, because Marcus and Crabtree passed by him one after another, paying full attention to Maxwell who noticed Lu Ke leaving the pocket, in a daze. I thought it was the same person and didn't pay much attention to him. Then Logan had already rushed over and grabbed the attention of Maxwell and Wagner.
It seems incredible, but in the ever-changing game process, the shift of attention and concentration is often a matter of a blink of an eye.
In this way, Marcus successfully concealed the truth.
After cautiously following Crabtree as he continued to run forward, the distance from the scrimmage line to the end zone was only ten yards. About two or three yards from the front of the end zone, Marcus was like a shadow clone from Crabtree. Terry peeled off from behind and ran diagonally forward toward the left side, instantly creating a gap on the left side of the end zone.
Brake, adjust, turn, stop, prepare.
Marcus had enough time to complete the ball preparation in the no-man's land of about five yards, and then Lu Ke's parabolic pass began to fall.
Marcus continued to adjust his body rhythm with small steps, and then from the corner of his eyes, he could see the dark blue jersey turning around awkwardly and slowly. Before those figures started, he was already firmly in place. There was no challenge in holding the football in my arms.
"Whoosh!"
"boom!"
Marcus caught the football like this and concentrated his chest accurately. He could even easily jump twice on the spot to move his body. Like a gymnast who had just completed a vault, he walked towards the audience with ease and ease. He waved his hand to indicate that he had landed safely.
He scored a touchdown.
