"what happened?"
Questions were raised in the studio, and countless question marks could not find an answer; and the stadium was also filled with similar confusions:
The Seattle Seahawks defensive team didn't know what was going on. What was the problem with their ground defense? Why couldn't they stop it no matter what? That kind of frustration, that kind of anger, that kind of embarrassment made them unable to bear it any longer, and the rage in their chests burst out.
The defensive linemen and offensive linemen collided head-on. Although other players from both teams were trying to break up the fight, the scene was still chaotic.
"I can't believe what's going on. This is a team we've been watching all season. This is the No. 1 defense in the league -- a team that's even one of the top five teams in history. They are the team that directly blocked Drew Brees in three quarters in the divisional round, but tonight, their performance has never been able to improve to a sufficient level!"
"In the first half of the game, the two sides competed in passing offense. Lu Ke's wisdom and changeability really made it difficult for any defensive team to find a rhythm. Overall, the state and performance of the two teams were in the same state. On the horizontal line; but entering the second half, the performance of the Seattle Seahawks defense was unsatisfactory."
"In two consecutive attacks at the beginning, Seattle forced its opponents into three long yards, but lost key pass defense twice, and then fell into a nightmare: running the ball five times, passing the ball once, and... The opponent advanced 49 yards, and only forced one second-down offense."
"The Seattle Seahawks' ground defense was completely destroyed by Gall and Lynch in turns. Their poor performance was not able to form a confrontation in the ground attack. It was as if they did not expect the San Francisco 49ers to suddenly choose to open the situation from the ground. The entire tactical change failed to keep up with the rhythm of the game, and the performance of the linebackers and defensive fronts was even more of a disaster. The only time he exerted full pressure, Lu Ke found a gap and completed a 13-yard ground advance. This season has been devastating for the Seattle Seahawks, who have built a dynasty on defense."
"Michael Bennett didn't like this situation. He took the initiative to start a fight and clashed with Anthony Davis, but the San Francisco 49ers didn't care at all. They finally pushed the football into the end zone again and scored another touchdown. , defeated the opponent again and further expanded the score advantage."
"Since the beginning of this game, the San Francisco 49ers have never punted!"
"We must be amazed. Last year's invincible offensive team seems to be back again. Lu Ke once again showed us the West Coast offense at its peak. The defending champion's state is getting better and better as the playoffs advance! But! More importantly now, what exactly is wrong with the Seattle Seahawks defense?"
"For this team, there is no problem with the strength and intensity of the defense. They deserve to be the best in the league. But so far in this game, they still have not been able to find a way to contain Lu Ke. To be more precise, they have thought Too much preparation, too much preparation, has disrupted my own rhythm, and my overall performance so far is even worse than the matchup at Candlestick Stadium on the fourteenth week of the regular season."
"Pete Carroll must step up! Otherwise, the last quarter of this game will be very difficult, because they are facing Lu Ke and Hubble. They will never give up just because they are leading by a big score. Relax, in three seasons, the San Francisco 49ers have never been overturned by their opponents when leading by two touchdowns, which also means that the Seattle Seahawks are now standing on the edge of the cliff, and they must cheer up!"
The chaos in the stadium continued for a while again. After repeated admonitions, the players from both sides separated, began to curse at each other, and walked towards their team's side. This kind of atmosphere It also extends all the way to the special team. The entire Century Chain Stadium is like an active volcano, which is continuously erupting. The rolling lava is all over the ground and may explode at any time.
Before the extra point kick, Akens calmed down calmly before announcing the kickoff, and then succeeded in one stroke, helping the San Francisco 49ers extend the score to "10:26", further establishing their advantage.
As Kirk Charleston, who is in charge of broadcasting in the studio, said, the San Francisco 49ers have never lost a game after leading by two touchdowns.
It is true that the Seattle Seahawks are the top seed in the National League and have the upper hand with absolute strength. They have also staged comebacks in the fourth quarter twice this season; but the premise is that both the offensive team and the defensive team must find their form, otherwise this will not happen. The game is basically explained here.
It must be noted that the game time is decreasing - the San Francisco 49ers' first offense of the second half consumed five minutes and 51 seconds, and now there is only a little more than nine minutes left in the third quarter. In theory, There is still enough time to take the lead, but including the time required to readjust the state, there is not much left.
Then Russell came on the scene.
The first offense was not going smoothly. Russell chose to fake a run and pass the ball, but he was unable to deceive the San Francisco 49ers' defensive front. Justin Smith, who has been in hot form since entering the playoffs, was covered by the five-man pass rush tactic. Down, he quickly got into the pocket and was about to complete the sack, forcing Russell to rush the ball.
As a result, when Gordon Tate had already run out of the receiving gap, Russell's pass was too short, a full three yards short. This prevented Tate, who was waiting on the spot, from taking a step forward in time - —The arc of the rugby ball is also low, and it falls too fast. It has already landed before it even has time to lift its feet.
Pass incomplete.
This made Tate a little frustrated. Tonight's passing offense was always in a state of inefficiency, which put the wide receiver in an awkward position of being unable to use his strength. He was also extremely depressed.
Ten yards from second gear, Marshawn Lynch stepped forward!
Although the tactical cover of fake real-time running failed to deceive the opponent, and instead put Marshawn Lynch into a dangerous situation of continuous tackles and continuous collisions, he once again showed his "beast mode" toughness and successfully created two He missed a tackle, forced away two head-on collisions, and when two players tackled him one after another, he continued to advance two yards and successfully pushed past the first attack conversion line to win the first attack.
In just ten yards, it was a hail of bullets. The San Francisco 49ers' defense was already in place and very good. However, Marshawn Lynch's unstoppable force still won the first attack. Such a tough performance also made the 12 players at Century Chain Stadium People have rediscovered their passion.
But the good times didn't last long.
In the ensuing offense, ten yards from the first gear, Russell found Gordon Tate with a quick short pass. Tate, who ran back early and got out of the gap, successfully caught the football, but then encountered the cornerback Tower. Tyrell Brown's fierce tackle. Although this was a one-on-one situation, Tate was never able to get rid of Tarrel, and was eventually forced to the ground at the receiving position, with two yards left to complete the first attack. .
On second gear and second yard, the San Francisco 49ers' defensive front showed excellent form. They only used four people to rush the pass, but three of them cut into the pocket, creating three consecutive waves of passing pressure - although none of the three defensive players were able to Touching Russell, but in the rough sea, forcing Russell to quickly pass the ball, and finally the football passed beyond the sideline.
Such a terrible performance by the offensive line made head coach Carroll stand on the sidelines with a red face and kept roaring like a hair dryer, hoping that the offensive line could cheer up quickly, otherwise even if Russell is the running quarterback, It is also impossible for him to find too many opportunities in the continuous attacks of the defensive front, so the offense will be completely stagnant.
On third down and two yards, Russell handed the football to Marshawn. But this time, Marshawn failed to create a miracle - it was still the offensive line that had a problem.
The San Francisco 49ers only used three people to rush the pass and suppressed the offensive line's opening. The entire opening failed to open up the situation, which did not leave much room for Mashaun to choose. After Mashaun chose to step up, the four lines of the defensive team The guards cut in from different directions, and in the chaos, directly knocked Marshawn down behind the line of scrimmage. "Beast Mode" stalled before it could even be driven.
strike out!
The San Francisco 49ers couldn't help but get excited on and off the field, and the roars of emotional release began to cheer up. Following the offensive team, the defensive team gradually got on track and curbed the Seattle Seahawks' counterattack momentum with a strikeout. Now the outcome is The balance is tilting a little bit.
For the Seattle Seahawks, this is an offense that must be completed; for the San Francisco 49ers, this is a defense that must be completed. Whether it is the home team or the away team, this momentum battle has entered the most intense and hottest stage, and the real bayonet is red!
Now, the San Francisco 49ers have defeated the Seattle Seahawks with a strikeout, and the momentum of both sides has further increased.
Russell stood there depressed, with a somewhat obscure expression, while Marshawn turned and left the court angrily. He tried to raise his voice to stop him, but in the end he was unable to make a sound. The offensive linemen were even more distracted and their attention was uncontrollable. The ground was scattered.
Different from the fourth gear at the end of the first half, this time the Seattle Seahawks did not choose to attack, but chose to punt, but they did not expect that the punt would be unexpected again.
The San Francisco 49ers made the mistake this time. During the punt formation, the San Francisco 49ers special teams team had an illegal formation and were penalized five yards before the kickoff. This also meant that the punt was invalid. The second-yard conversion on fourth gear was successful, giving the Seattle Seahawks a first down.
Such a low-level and such a stupid foul error, this time, it was Jim Harbaugh's turn to be furious.
