Five players, five lines, seem to be independent, but in fact they are interconnected, running hand in hand and intertwined, making the entire backcourt trembling!
This is the power of the San Francisco 49ers' West Coast offense. Under Lu Ke's precise passing and accurate judgment, it has been further developed and has become the team's best weapon in sweeping the league in the past three seasons. Even the Seattle Sea Eagle's blasting legion also had a headache.
How should we deal with the San Francisco 49ers' route running? Some teams insist on zone defense because the running route is too complicated. Each defensive player insists on defending one area and waits for Lu Ke to pass the ball before making up defense, allowing the second line of defense to win. More reaction time; some teams insist on man-to-man coverage. No matter how San Francisco runs, one-on-one defense can block the pass by focusing on the receiving player.
Both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they mainly test execution ability and on-the-spot adaptability. In the National League finals, the Seattle Seahawks used match-up defense and zone defense, which caused countless troubles for Lu Ke, but in the end Lu Ke found a gap; now, the Denver Broncos use match-up defense, but they are also in trouble among.
Because the defensive front adopts a five-man pass rush, this leaves only six players on the second line. Except for one safety, Mike Adams, who guards the backfield alone, the other five defensive players happen to be facing five receivers—— Lu Ke sacrificed the stability of pocket protection and used Marcus as the fifth receiver, and that was the purpose.
When the Denver Broncos' defensive front fails to exert enough pressure on the pocket protection, allowing Lu Ke to win enough pass observation time, the consequences are fatal.
In fact, Lu Ke's pass doesn't even take that much time. After three consecutive steps back to complete the adjustment, he can take in the entire field with one glance. Each position creates a corresponding space for receiving the ball. The difference It just depends on the quality of the opportunity, and then Lu Ke quickly made a choice.
The knife falls from the hand!
With a pause, the rugby ball was out of the control of the palm, drawing a light arc, crossing the bustling area of the short passing area, flying quickly towards the mid-passing area, and found its own passing target——
An Kuang Bolding!
…
Standing on the inside of the left wing, Boldin's eyes were fixed on his opponent, outside linebacker Nate Irvin. In the last wave of offense, Crabtree faced Irvin and used his own The center of gravity shook and he dodged Irvin, and finally caught a 25-yard long pass in the end zone and scored a touchdown. This also means that Irvin's explosive power and change of direction ability in short-range areas are still insufficient. Now it's Boldin's turn.
Following Lu Ke's kick-off command, Boldin made a forward momentum and got into Irvin's arms. With an absolutely strong posture, Irvin had to adjust his steps and center of gravity, otherwise he might be beaten by Boldin. Ding was knocked over directly, but then, Boldin made a movement towards the left, forcing Irwin to follow the movement reflexively, but he did not expect that Boldin would change his center of gravity the next second. Jumped out directly to the right.
In the last wave of offense, Crabtree had just thrown away his focus and lost a touchdown. This also made Irvin more vigilant. His reaction speed has obviously improved. Although he was thrown away by half a step, he still caught up in time. He followed Boulding's footsteps and chased after him step by step.
Boldin is very cunning - or very smart. He was able to catch Irvin's footsteps, so he took the initiative to run in the direction of Irvin, using his body to squeeze Irvin's running space and destroy Irvin's running space. Running rhythm, in the end he simply rushed forward. Even though Irving was well prepared, his running steps still staggered, and then Boldin's speed exploded.
accelerate!
Full acceleration!
Boldin fully unleashed his short-range acceleration ability within a ten-yard area. He kicked the ground with force and distance, visible to the naked eye - from a quarter step to a half step, although it was only It was only half a step, but it was already very rare to get rid of the close defense and create space for receiving the ball in just ten yards. Boldin completely entered a state of selflessness, and his speed increased to the extreme.
The whistling wind in his ears was making a sound. Even though speed was not Boldin's strongest point, he had now fully unleashed it without any reservation. He pushed hard and forcefully, integrating his entire body into the wind, and even For a moment, he had forgotten that Irwin was chasing after him.
Intermediate passing area. Intermediate passing area. Intermediate passing area.
There was only one thought in Boldin's mind: after a whole season of cooperation, he clearly knew that when Lu Ke clearly indicated the running route and the receiving position, it must be accurate to within two yards. Scope, because Lu Ke does what he says! In this wave of offense, he is the designated passing target, so he must run to Lu Ke's designated position. This is his task as a wide receiver.
Run at full speed!
Running at full speed along the small diagonal line, when his footsteps crossed the slot on the right, Boldin began to turn slightly sideways and cast his gaze in the direction of Lu Ke. However, he noticed that Lu Ke had already completed the pass and the rugby ball was on the way. Flying in the air, the light parabola exploded with strong speed.
Like a torpedo!
Boldin could even catch the subtle sound of the football running at full speed and the friction of the air, which was blooming in his ears. His forward steps did not need to slow down at all, but were adjusted into small steps, running towards him at high speed. He rushed over where the rugby ball landed.
The arc was slightly high and he was not able to completely control it on the expected line, but Boldin didn't care. He jumped up lightly with the help of forward inertia, stretched out his hand to intercept the football's flight path, and accurately caught the ball above his helmet. Lived rugby.
Whoosh!
boom!
Boldin firmly grasped the football, landed quickly with both feet, without any pause, and accelerated forward, preparing to continue to advance.
Irving, who was half a step behind, was still unable to break the pass in time, but Boldin's leaping catch created an opportunity for him. He simply gave up adjusting his steps and caught it with a flying dive. Boulding's waist, using inertia and strength to push Boulding down directly.
"Wonderful! Extremely wonderful!"
"In a third-and-2-yard situation, the Denver Broncos chose to press the pass, but the San Francisco 49ers used excellent pocket protection to buy Lu Ke passing time, and then Lu Ke boldly challenged an 18-yard field goal Passed the ball and connected with Anquan Boldin, successfully tearing apart the Denver Broncos' defense!"
"Wow! This is the courage of the San Francisco 49ers - maybe a short pass or a rush can be used to easily complete the third-speed two-yard transition, but Hubble is full of confidence in Lu Ke, and he chose to believe in Lu Ke. One pass successfully ripped open the defense, and we were in the Denver half in one go!”
"San Francisco's offensive tactics can always take the lead and create more advantages for themselves. This is also the offensive method this offensive team is most familiar with and good at. Now, under the leadership of Lu Ke, they have fully entered the game state. San Francisco has successfully entered the game. Coming to the 38-yard line, the Denver defense once again faced a severe test."
"How to stop Lu Ke is a problem for the entire league, and now it is also a problem for Denver."
Immediately afterwards, the Denver Broncos gave the answer:
The four-man pass rush created huge pressure. In the situation of beating a cow from a mountain away, Lu Ke was almost sacked, forcing Lu Ke to face a chaotic passing vision; although Lu Ke successfully passed the football at the last moment, The body has lost its center of gravity, which also results in the passing arc not being able to be suppressed.
As the target of the pass, Logan jumped up with all his strength, trying to complete the ball, but he only touched the football slightly, and then he fell to the ground with all his strength. The football fell directly to the ground, and the pass was not completed—— The Denver Broncos still found a breakthrough in the frontline confrontation.
Likewise, the San Francisco 49ers responded immediately.
Facing the second gear of ten yards, Lu Ke adopted a screen short pass tactic, with the offensive line pushing the defensive line players to move laterally in a wide range to the right; at the same time, he made a pass handover action and gave up the "short pass" The play, prepare to give the ball to Marcus and let Marcus attract the attention of the linebacker.
The entire movement moved towards the same side with great momentum, which also forced the Denver Broncos' defensive front rhythm to be disrupted, and they could only be led by the nose. No sudden pass rush or short passing layout could be realized, but Lu Ke unexpectedly took the initiative to move laterally to the left——
Lu Ke rushed out of the pocket and moved laterally to the left, showing a lone hero attitude. At this time, defensive end Sean Phillips and outside linebacker Nate Irvin realized that they had been fooled. The tactical layout and Amidst the changes on the spot, the defensive team once again fell into a passive position.
Phillips and Irvin both stepped up, trying to sprint towards Lu Ke, but it was too late at this time. Lu Ke opened up the space with a calm and experienced lateral cross-step change, and before Phillips pounced with all his strength, he raised his head. He completed a bullet pass with his hand and sent it towards Crabtree with the force of breaking through the air.
Only then did the entire Denver Broncos defense realize: Who is on this side?
Crabtree and Vernon!
With Vernon on the inside and Crabtree on the outside, the two players stood in different positions and rushed forward along different lines, forcing the defense on the Denver Broncos side to spread out and failing to form a zone defense. Butree formed a one-on-one matchup with cornerback Champ Bailey.
But Crabtree still took some advantage. With an outside run, he completed the fifteen-yard catch before Champ could step forward to defend closely!
Neither Champ nor safety Ionacho expected Lu Ke's pass at all, and they didn't even react until Crabtree caught the football.
Wait, why is it another intermediate pass?
