"Hurry up!"
After Lu Ke fell to the ground, he had no time to celebrate the successful conversion of his first attack. Instead, he called on the offensive team to quickly complete the formation again.
It can be clearly noticed that the defensive strategy of the Denver Broncos defense team was forced to make adjustments - because the pressure ability of the defensive front line was weakened. On the one hand, the physical strength of the defensive front players was also limited, and the intensity of pass rushing declined; On the one hand, the status of the offensive line has improved, and pocket protection has become more targeted. From time to time, the Denver Broncos' defensive strategy changed slightly, but they failed to do so——
Pressing forward and back, the distribution of the entire defensive force becomes clear, which also makes the joint between the short passing area and the mid-passing area empty. This is why Lu Ke chooses to run with the ball by himself. The open space directly in front is enough to become His playground successfully won the first attack for the team.
Next, Lu Ke plans to continue to use this matchup advantage to seize the disadvantage of the Denver Broncos' slightly slow change in defensive tactics.
Ten yards in first gear.
"attack!"
Lu Ke quickly kicked off the ball, and then followed the movement of the entire offensive line and moved laterally to the right. However, while his footsteps were moving, he sent a light shot diagonally to the left in the form of a fadeaway shot. 's parabola found Boldin six yards out.
Originally standing on the left wing that was heavily guarded by multi-line attacks, Boldin, Crabtree and Logan completed a complex three-person crossover run, with Crabtree and Logan attracting defensive players in the short pass area. Attention, Boldin, who was slightly behind in his steps, easily caught the shadow pass from Lu Ke, and was able to turn around freely and continue to advance forward.
When cornerback Champ Bailey stepped forward to cover the ball, Boldin had already crossed the first-down conversion line and even advanced two more yards before being pushed out of the sideline.
Since facing two yards on fourth down, the rhythm and intensity of the three consecutive offenses have increased again. In the blink of an eye, the San Francisco 49ers have reached the 27-yard line. The entire momentum of the advance has suppressed the Denver Broncos defense, and Denver But there wasn't much time to make adjustments.
Because Lu Ke announced the kick-off again, the gathering time was compressed, and there was no deliberate launch of a non-Gathering attack, but the adjustment time was indeed shortened, which also brought the offensive rhythm completely within Lu Ke's control. At the critical moment, Lu Ke Led the offensive team into a state of selflessness.
The Denver Broncos defense can clearly feel this layer of pressure, and the defense in various positions cannot keep up with the rhythm. The physical problems faced by the San Francisco 49ers at the end of the first half have now come to the Denver Broncos, and The San Francisco 49ers, who became more and more courageous as they fought, burst out with amazing energy. They seemed not to feel tired at all. Their full concentration brought the game to another level.
Lu Ke once again found Logan with a quick short pass. Logan was still trying to break through after catching the football, but Dominic, the opposing cornerback, obviously couldn't keep up with Logan and pulled Logan in desperation. helmet, terminated the advance, but was penalized ten yards for a yellow flag foul.
The San Francisco 49ers automatically get the first down and enter Denver's 17-yard line in the half!
Dominic, who was suspected of being injured and left the field for examination, was fine in the end. After resting and adjusting several offenses, he returned to the field; but the consumption caused by the fierce confrontation was still very obvious. Now Dominic is stuck. I can't keep up with the position, and it often becomes a breakthrough.
Dominic is still insisting, because the abilities of the two substitute cornerbacks are really not up to par. If they come on stage at this time, they will undoubtedly become Lu Ke's target. This is definitely what the Denver Broncos don't want to see, so even though Dominic is now exhausted, he is still persisting.
"Now the game is in a different mode."
"At the end of the first half, the physical exertion of the San Francisco 49ers was obviously more intense, which also made the offensive team's pocket protection unable to keep up with the rhythm. You can see from the side the subsequent impact of San Francisco playing one more game in the playoffs; in the second half The game entered the sprint phase, but the Denver Broncos encountered the ultimate physical strength, and the rhythm of the front and second-line defense fell behind. This may be because the Denver Broncos have not experienced such a severe test of fierce battles from the regular season to the playoffs throughout the season. This game The intensity and intensity of the game is at a whole new level, which adds to the physical drain on Denver."
"When it comes to tough battles, the San Francisco 49ers are undoubtedly the top team! The more intense and powerful the confrontation, the more energetic they will be. The game has entered a stage where the difference between them is within a hair's breadth. Neither team is allowed to make mistakes, and You have to go all out, which makes the game more and more exciting!”
Seventeen yard line, ten yards on first down.
Lu Ke is reading the defense. Although the overall defensive formation of the Denver Broncos has not changed, the details have been slightly adjusted——
The entire defensive front moved one position to the right. Malik, who was originally facing Boone, is now facing Anthony; Knighton, who was originally facing Anthony, is now facing Goodwin, and so on. In the end, the defensive line Phillips was left alone, while Boone on the offensive line sent out cornerback Dominic to form a counterpoint.
What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?
Could it be that defensive end Phillips was asked to cut into the pocket and sack Lu Ke? This is really too simple and crude, and it is an intuitive content on the surface of the formation. Lu Ke also noticed more details.
The San Francisco 49ers set up a multi-line attack, with three players on the left wing and one player on the right wing.
Now, Dominic, who was supposed to face Anquan Boldin on the right wing, steps up to face Boone, and Boldin forms a matchup with outside linebacker Traverson. Interestingly, Traverson does not. Step forward directly to form a face-to-face marking, but still stay about five yards back, leaving room for maneuver to form a counterpoint.
At the same time, the other two linebackers and the cornerback on the other side did not take a step forward. They still faced off against the three receivers on the left five or six yards apart. Even defensive end Phillips did not confront him. Logan is on the inside of the left wing, but Irvin, the outside linebacker, is on defense.
In other words, the Denver Broncos' entire defensive formation is focused on Sean Phillips, and the rest are only changes due to Phillips' movement. So, what is the reason for this? A sudden pass rush? Ground marking? Or a smokescreen pass defense?
Lu Ke stood up straight and swept the whole field into view: the handover area between short and medium passes is still relatively weak. This should not be a trap, but a tactical decision by the Denver Broncos defensive team when they cannot keep up with the rhythm. Adjustments; of course, correspondingly there will be an increase in defensive forces in the front and backcourt, which in turn can make the team's defense more focused and tougher. John Fox still showed his heritage.
Lu Ke made a quick decision in his mind and quickly changed his tactics, but there was no change in the offensive formation.
"attack!"
Following Lu Ke's kick-off call, the offensive linemen retreated at the same time, and the retreating steps were very particular - Stanley versus Phillips, Rupadi versus Sylvester, once again forming a familiar matchup, simple For example, the defensive front created a mismatch, while the offensive front returned to its position by retreating and advancing, and further clarified the division of labor, with Anthony facing Malik and Boone facing Dominic.
In the usual four-man pass rush, Malik would break through more from the outside and form a confrontation with Boone, but now it is "five VS five". The offensive line has a clear division of labor and takes the lead to retreat, blocking his position. Cutting off the passage to Lu Ke gave him the upper hand - in the game of offensive tactics and defensive tactics, Lu Ke used his own prediction and scheduling to once again successfully buy himself passing time.
Now, even if Dominic joined the defensive front and formed a five-man pass rush, he still failed to form an advantage. Instead, he was grabbed by the throat by his opponent, and then the confrontation between the front lines took on a different look. Lu Ke stood on He retreated steadily in the pocket and encountered no threat at all.
Retreat!
Retreat!
Lu Ke's pocket steps were methodical, and he swept calmly, quickly catching the multiple lines on the left wing and creating enough gaps. Especially when Marcus also passed the ball diagonally from the slot, the entire gap became more obvious. , with no defenders in the three yards or so surrounding Marcus.
Lu Ke raised his hand and made a passing motion without much hesitation. Then he stopped his hand and adjusted to the other side.
Although there is space, it is not enough! Because the Denver Broncos' entire defensive focus is on this side!
After the kickoff, Logan on the inside of the left wing and Crabtree on the outside of the left wing both advanced towards the gap on the left side of the end zone. The two of them rushed forward facing their opponents, creating a screen for their teammates. posture, which tilted the defensive team's final attention and focus, and subsequent changes also confirmed the defensive team's judgment——
First, Marcus stepped outside, and then Lu Ke raised his hand to pass.
This caused many defensive players to sprint over with all their strength. Middle linebacker Paris and safety Iannacho even accidentally bumped into each other: Paris marked Marcus and quickly crossed back; Iannacho Joe marked Gene and quickly cut inside. The two were too eager to see each other, and they collided head-on.
etc!
Why did Jean cut toward the inside of the center? Interference tactics? Or what happened?
Then Iannacho saw Lu Ke pause and move his body to the other side - passing the ball to Marcus was a fake move, so the real target of the pass was... Ted Ginn?
No way?
A flash of panic flashed through Iannachio's mind, and he was about to start chasing him to make up for his defense, but found that Jean's light footsteps had already run away, and he could only vaguely see a white figure in the orange, chasing him. Not available! But why didn't anyone defend Jean?
Is this... inviting you to enter the urn?
