"Arizona Cardinals choose red flag challenge, referee will do an official replay ......"

Standing on the court at this time is the San Francisco 49ers offensive group and the Arizona Cardinals defensive group, Lu Ke has just completed a three-gear 10-yard pass link, with a 10-yard short pass to find Logan in the center of the field, Logan completed a flying rescue in the entanglement of outside guard Marcus Bernard, rolled on the spot, shook off Bernard, and then Logan stood up again and pushed forward, pushing forward nearly 20 yards in one go.

The referee judged that this was a successful push, and Bruce Arians chose the red flag challenge - leaving no chance for Lu Ke to immediately kick off the ball to continue the game, and at the critical moment, Arians also showed his game wisdom, last year's Coach of the Year was definitely not a fluke, and immediately threw the red flag, forcing the referee to interrupt the game.

The scene was a bit ambiguous, even the analysts and commentators in the studio were not able to understand Arians' red flag challenge for the first time, could it be because Logan made contact with Bernard when he finished receiving the ball, and then formed a dead ball, so Logan's follow-up push could not be counted?

After a slow-motion replay of the video, the studio understood that Arians' eyes were vicious.

In the end, it turned out that Arians was right -

When Logan flew to complete the catch, the rugby was the first to touch the ground, and then in the rebound process, Logan controlled the rugby with both hands, forming the illusion of completing the catch; It all happened in the midst of tumbling lightning, and even Logan himself couldn't be 100% sure if the football touched the ground, but Arians took a big gamble and inadvertently showed the Coach of the Year decision.

Jim Hubble was the 2011 Coach of the Year and Bruce Arians beat Hubble to win the Coach of the Year in 2012, making it a head-to-head clash between the two "Coach of the Year".

A third of the way into the fourth quarter, at 1054 seconds, Arians changed the situation with a risky red flag challenge:

As a result, the San Francisco 49ers were unable to convert to the third gear of ten yards, entered the fourth gear of ten yards, and were forced to fold, and the Arizona Cardinals once again grabbed the offensive power. At this time, the fans and players did not realise the importance of this challenge, and the anxiety of the home and away teams was quietly starting to have a chemical reaction.

Palmer, who was unable to find a passing touch in today's game, led the team back to the court, and despite having a luxurious wide receiver, Palmer also had a hard time.

On the one hand, his own close end and running back can't share the pressure, and the change in offensive tactics can't be played - as a quarterback in the West Coast offensive system, Palmer is also helpless; On the other hand, the opposition defensive forward's all-out effort squeezed his passing space throughout, and statistically, he didn't get any tackles, but more than 85% of his passes were made under pressure, and Palmer's passing accuracy was seriously affected.

Of course, Palmer's own form was not ideal in this game, and there were repeated mistakes in defensive reading and passing vision, which led to a skyrocketing passing risk. The main responsibility for that interception in the end zone still lies with Palmer himself.

For a variety of reasons, the Arizona Cardinals' offense struggled today.

But the turning point finally came, after the successful red flag challenge, Palmer once again led the attacking team on the stage, and the concentration began to improve rapidly at the critical moment, Palmer's passing vision was obviously clear, and he completed a 20-yard long pass in the opening game, found Larry Fitzgerald to complete the second 10-yard conversion, and finally found some touch for the home team's attack.

This time, the long-pass connection seemed to allow Palmer's concentration to be fully focused, and in a trance, he found his touch again at the end of the first quarter.

Under the continuous pressure of the opposing defensive group, Palmer showed his excellent ability - passing accuracy and long pass raids should have been his strengths, don't forget, he is a former Heisman winner and draft champion, purely in terms of talent, he is much better than Lu Ke.

Under pressure, Palmer made four three-gear transitions in a row – four times!

In other words, after Palmer re-appeared, except for the first offense was the first offense in second gear, every subsequent offense was forced into a third-gear dilemma, the Arizona Cardinals' running back group suffered a severe blow from the San Francisco 49ers, the ground advance yardage in this wave of offense was "-12" yards, not only failed to get the advance yardage, but was repeatedly pushed down by the away team's defensive group behind the offensive tee line, losing yards, which also repeatedly put the home team's offensive group into a three-gear long yardage dilemma.

However, four times in a row, Palmer handed over a perfect answer sheet with a 100% successful conversion, and there were even two suspected fourth-gear inches, but after the referee passed the on-the-spot measurement, both times the Arizona Cardinals successfully completed the three-gear conversion instead of four-gear inches, which also allowed the home team's offensive momentum to continue.

As a result, the situation on the field became delicate, and Palmer not only reopened the situation of passing attack, but also forced the defensive group to return to no avail of successive ferocious passes, and had to spend more energy on the second line of defense, and the momentum of both sides quietly returned to the same level, which was crucial for the game situation.

Eventually, the offense ended dramatically:

Palmer's five-yard short pass was too powerful and slammed into Larry Fitzgerald's helmet - the entire control of the passing crosshairs was completely lost under the collision of the defensive forward, and Fitzgerald, who was facing two players to cover the defense, could not spare his hands, there was no way or opportunity to complete the catch, and the rugby hit his helmet and shoulder junction hard, and then formed a rebound.

After the rebound, the rugby ball slid towards the end zone, and safety guard Eric Ryder had a chance to make a tackle, but the rugby ball's irregular flight slid through the palms of Red's hands and drilled out like a fish in the net; Rhett's touch changed the trajectory of the flight again slightly, landing in the chest of wide receiver Michael Floyd, who reflexively took the ball in both hands with a reflex jump catch.

Touchdown.

The analysts and commentators in the studio were dumbfounded: What kind of touchdown was this? More precisely, what kind of attack is this? This is the real dance on the tightrope, the Arizona Cardinals' offensive team is simply playing with fire, and any deviation could directly bury their efforts, but instead, the home team has done it, and Lady Luck seems to be on the side of the University of Phoenix once again.

Fifteen offensives, eighty yards, seven minutes and ten seconds, the Arizona Cardinals completed their second passing touchdown of the game, instantly reversing the situation of falling behind, "20:16", after the extra points were scored, the home team overtook the score and regained the lead at the end of the game.

At this point, there were three minutes and forty-four seconds left in the game.

Now, the two free-kicks conceded by the San Francisco 49ers special service team are particularly important; But it's no need to go back and complain about the secret service, not to mention that Akons doesn't want accidents, it's all uncontrollable, just talking about the progress of the game, instead of complaining about the previous mistakes, it is better to focus all your attention on the rest of the game, three minutes and forty-four seconds, everything is possible, it is too early to enter a state of anxiety.

Then the race went off track again.

After Lu Ke led the offensive team again, the Arizona Cardinals' defensive team significantly increased the pace and intensity, which also forced Lu Ke to suffer a strikeout after one run and two passes, and fell into a four-gear five-yard dilemma.

In fact, there is no problem with Lu Ke's tactics, the most important thing is the mistake problem in the second-line offense and defense - Logan once again appeared in the fatal butter hand, otherwise Lu Ke would have gotten the first attack when he attacked in the second gear, but in a blink of an eye, he came to the fourth gear, at this time there are only two minutes and forty-two seconds left in the game time, if the ball is transferred to the Arizona Cardinals now, then the situation will be very unfavorable for the San Francisco 49ers, so Hubble boldly chose the fourth gear to attack.

Four gears and five yards.

Lu Ke connected with Crabtree's five-yard short pass, but encountered Peterson's early card position - Peterson had a clear understanding of Lu Ke's ability to pass the ball in the shadow behind his shoulder, so he stuck Crabtree's position in advance, forcing Crabtree to lose his position, and Lu Ke's passing speed was particularly accurate in order to grab time, and then Crabtree missed Lu Ke's pass.

Fourth-gear conversion failed.

Accidental?

In fact, it is not surprising that the confrontation and stalemate between the two teams were extremely fierce throughout the game, and the San Francisco 49ers seized the upper hand under the leadership of Lu Ke, but the advantage was very, very weak - the missed two free kicks were a microcosm of the fierce competition, and even if the two free kicks were missed, the situation on the court of the San Francisco 49ers was far from reaching the height of comprehensive dominance.

At the same time, the Arizona Cardinals also continued to fight back with all their might for this game, which kept the scene in a state of anxiety, they were at a disadvantage, but the disadvantage was not obvious, and they were always clenching their teeth to maintain the suspense of the game. A little mistake, a little accident, and a little bit of luck turned the tide of things is not surprising.

Lu Ke stood in place, gritted his teeth hard, and grinded his teeth depressedly: now the initiative is no longer in his hands.
