Midfield line, 10 yards in gear.

Lu Ke, who stepped back to the shotgun formation, found Crabtree with a quick short pass, but unfortunately, after Crabtree finished receiving the ball, he turned and encountered a frontal interception by cornerback Justin Bethel, and his footsteps stopped at the tee line, unable to continue to advance.

It's still the midfield line, two gears and ten yards.

Standing in the position of multi-line offensive superimposed pistol formation, Lu Ke deliberately delayed the shooting time, stacking all the offensive lines towards the left wing, trying to break the balance, but the outside lineback John Abrahan of the defensive group keenly caught the gap, and with six people under the protection of the offensive front, he still bypassed the entire offensive front, cut into the pocket from Lu Ke's right side, and ran towards the third potential tackle.

In a crisis situation, Lu Ke pulled the distance with a horizontal pull on the left side, made a quick shot in Abrahan's relentless pursuit, and found An Kuang Bording who was pulling horizontally to the left before the dense encirclement formed a blockade, and cleanly completed a short pass of ten yards.

Boulding's running path was light and clean: straight forward, pushing the footsteps of perimeter defender Marcus Bernard on the same side and continuing to retreat, rushing out of ten yards and then changing direction and pulling sideways to the left, instantly shaking off Bernard's mark, and then tearing out a space of about two to three yards.

Boulding seized the opportunity, Lu Ke also seized the opportunity, and the two completed the connection, which is definitely a passing choice to win in the chaos:

Because after Boulding finished receiving the ball, three defenders, including Bernard, surrounded him from different directions, and he only had time to take two steps forward before he was collided by three people from different directions and directly pushed to the ground, with no room to escape or breathe.

But no matter what, Lu Ke and Boulding still won the first attack again in the chaos.

In the three shifts of offense since Jean left the field, Lu Keqing chose to pass the ball all in one color, but he can be faintly aware that he is changing the rhythm of passing: one deliberately took the initiative to leave the pocket for protection, one quick shot immediately after the kickoff, one consciously delayed the shooting time, and consciously disrupted the entire offensive rhythm, from kick-off to start to shot and connection, all of which fell on different node positions.

Two of them succeeded and one was blocked, but the core meaning is still changing the pace. In fact, for both the offensive and defensive sides, the constantly changing rhythm is destroying their breathing adjustment and muscle control, and the change of speed in a short period of time is a severe test for every player on the court, but this is a familiar variation for the San Francisco 49ers.

This method must not be used continuously, but the sudden use in the strong collision can often achieve miraculous results, in the first quarter of the game, there was never a offensive group that could be adjusted to the best state, but in Lu Ke's high-intensity variations, gradually found a familiar state, Logan and Boulding's catch is very easy, and there are almost no obstacles in the state of one-to-one alignment-

It must be noted that both of these successful connections were short passes, which is precisely the area where the Arizona Cardinals' defensive team is relatively more confident in short passing.

Now it can be seen that Lu Ke's sudden change of intentions forced the Arizona Cardinals defense team to change - not active but passive, change in the direction guided by Lu Ke's control, so that all the pre-game preparations are invalid, and the tactics can only be rearranged according to the situation on the field.

In this fierce game, Lu Ke is eating away at his opponent's advantage little by little, and then bringing the game back into his control.

Sure enough, the Arizona Cardinals defense made a change: they used a seven-man rush pass tactic, broke through the pocket in an unreasonable way, and tried to make a third capture of Lu Ke, but Lu Ke was completely prepared and passed the football to Marcus at the same time as the pocket was broken.

Unfortunately, in order to intercept the opponent, Alex Boone had a pulling foul; At the same time, Marcus's footsteps only came to the tee line, and then he was quickly stepped up by the fast outside back Abrahan and cornerback Peterson to complete the tackle, but could not push further.

But Lu Ke didn't care too much, the focus was not on how far Marcus could advance, but on the fact that the defensive team was indeed forced to change the entire tactical rhythm. Of course, it is a pity that he has not been able to advance the yardage now, which is also a problem, and Lu Ke needs more rounds to complete the layout.

Boone's foul was penalized for five yards, but because the San Francisco 49ers' offense didn't finish the advance, the referee allowed the San Francisco 49ers to choose whether or not to accept the foul — accept, then it was a replay, just a fifteen-yard one; If you don't accept it, then you will continue to play second gear, facing two ten yards.

Hubble and Lu Ke briefly communicated and accepted the punishment.

What Lu Ke needs now is more offensive and defensive rounds, with variations again and again to complete the infiltration layout; At this time, the scene is very tense and very deadlocked, and it is very likely that this offensive and defensive gear will determine the direction of the whole game. Hubble finally chose to believe Lu Ke, and then accepted the punishment.

"Fifteen yards in one gear, or ten yards in two gears? This is indeed a debatable choice, if it were you, what would you choose? ”

"Ten yards for two gears. Of course, the quarterback standing on the court now is Lu Ke, fifteen yards and ten yards for him, in fact, there is no essential difference, it depends on the tactical layout, and now the Arizona Cardinals defensive group seems to be a little unable to keep up with the rhythm, it depends on how Lu Ke controls the situation next. ”

Fifteen yards in gear.

"Attack!"

The moment Lu Ke announced the kick-off, both sides of the two-by-two offensive formation rushed out, and all four players were scattered in the short pass area, but they showed completely different routes and runs, completely making full use of the entire court space, from the left to the right in the short pass horizontal area, Crabtree, Salek, Boulding, Logan, the four people occupied different positions, and the running direction was different.

Lu Ke retreated from the pistol formation to the shotgun formation, but he continued to retreat but never made a shot, deliberately slowing down the pace of his shots, waiting for Marcus to drill out from the center of the offensive front line and appear in the center of the short pass area, and then make a passing move.

Seemingly ready to pass the ball to Marcus, he adjusted the angle control of his wrist at the moment of the shot, shifted the passing track of the rugby ball to the left thirty degrees in the direction of his body rotation, and then found Salek who appeared on the inside of the center with a short pass of eight yards through the ball.

Salek ran out of a small arc of adduction, his feet were just in place, and before he even completed his body adjustment, Lu Ke's pass had been accurately delivered to his chest, but the force was a little lighter than expected, but fortunately, Salek was fully prepared, so there was no mistake in dropping the ball.

After catching the rugby, Salek did not adjust his footsteps, continued to lean sideways, and continued to rush backwards, one step! One more step!

Cornerback Peterson was completely inaccurate, and it was too late to change the center of gravity as he rushed towards Marcus, and could only watch as Salek got out of his defensive orbit; In the end, it was the figures of perimeter guard Abra Khan and security guard Curtis who covered the whole court, completed the bag in time, and teamed up to knock Salek down, which ended Salek's advance.

Two gears and four yards.

Including the distance of the pass and the distance after receiving the ball, Salek pushed a full eleven yards to instantly turn the disadvantage of the San Francisco 49ers who had just fouled.

Peterson expressed his frustration with his misjudgment, slamming his helmet a few times in an attempt to sober himself up. The small details can tell that the Arizona Cardinals are really hungry for this game, even beyond the importance of a playoff spot.

The boos and curses in the University of Phoenix stadium are getting more and more turbulent, and the rolling waves are making every player who is playing away from home suffer, as if even the hairs on the surface of the skin have been scorched, and the sweat has just seeped out before turning into steam.

And Lu Ke's attention was not only not affected, but reached an unprecedented height of concentration, because he smelled the spread of danger: the critical moment of the game has come!

"Wider, wider!"

After completing the defensive reading, Lu Ke decided to change the offensive tactics and transferred Salek on the left wing to the right wing, so the two-by-two formation became a multi-line offensive formation, and at the same time, two close forwards were hoarded on the right wing, and the focus of the whole attack was obviously tilted, but Marcus came from Lu Ke's right side to the left, balancing the whole formation a little.

Lu Ke was directing the position, signaling Salek, Logan and Boulding to distance themselves from each other, making full use of the entire right wing of the court. Because of the noise of the audience, Lu Ke had to tear his voice, his face was flushed and roared, and at the same time, his right hand was still making gestures to ensure that the offensive formation could achieve his vision.

Although it was only a second-gear four-yard offense at this time, the Arizona Cardinals were just as ready to fight, and they still followed the routine of today's three-gear defense -

Substitute for injured starting safety guard Rashad-Johnson and rookie safety guard Tony Jefferson, who started for two consecutive weeks, was alone in the backcourt, stepping back more than 20 yards and almost standing near the front of the red zone; The rest of the defenders all showed aggression and came within six yards, with ten players layered out.

So, is the Arizona Cardinals' defense a pass defense or a rush pass this time? Will the defensive formation, which has been playing tricks up to now, change formation at critical moments?

Defensive reading, defensive reading.

At this time, the most important thing is to defend and read, Lu Ke needs to be highly concentrated!
