612 In prison
"Bambi! Bambi! Bambi! ”
The overwhelming shouts were unanimous and unified, and even the roar and shock of the Nicaraguan Falls were not enough to describe the ten-thousandth of this moment, and the stirring of the air made the blood begin to gurgle and boil, and uncontrollably, the muscles began to tense and tremble slightly.
This is the real spotlight moment, even the audience in front of the TV can't help but stand up, from "Joe's Bar" to the San Francisco, from San Francisco to San Diego, from the West Coast to the East Coast, whether or not the San Francisco 49ers fans, at this time can no longer suppress their emotions and involuntarily stand up.
Just moved by this moment, and crazy because of this moment.
Then, they raised their right hands high, and began to shout, roar, and roar one after another, joining this national carnival, at this moment, they all became 49 people, they all stood behind Lu Ke, and they all looked forward to a victory with faith. Like never before, they can hear the heart of the Candlestick Stadium beating and pounding!
"Bambi!"
In a trance, the Saints fell into a state of isolation, and it seemed that everyone except New Orleans had stood on their opposite side, looking forward to a comeback, expecting a stunner, looking forward to a rookie quarterback making history, and even more looking forward to a head-to-head battle to finish offensively.
Every football fan has become so pure and focused in this moment.
"Bambi!"
A shout, but it seemed to have magical power, so that the enthusiasm began to surge little by little, and gradually joined together, overwhelmingly shaking the whole world.
The mighty sound was making the ground tremble slightly, but Lu Ke had already forgotten himself, as if he had stripped away the influence of the whole world, only football and offense in his eyes, and only touchdowns and victories in his mind, so he kept waving his hand and beckoning, "Hurry up!" Hurry up! ”
Although Vernon successfully went out of bounds just now and paused the game time, for Lu Ke, what is needed at this time is not to gather time, but to continue to speed up, continue the speed and momentum of the entire advance, and accumulate advantages little by little, the Saints defensive group is not the Steelers defensive group, as long as the advantage accumulates to a certain extent, they can destroy the other party.
Rapid arrays.
Lu Ke immediately noticed the change in the details:
The Saints actually gave up on raiding quarterbacks altogether, and in today's game, their raid effect was really terrible, and the pressure effect was not satisfactory, and at the critical moment, they removed a defensive forward and added a lineback. This also means that there are only three defensive forwards to attack the offensive forward's pockets; The other eight players were all scattered at the back, fully executing the pass defense.
This is not unexpected.
Because the San Francisco 49ers have cut into the free kick area, which means that after Akons comes on the court, tying the score is a high probability event, then the most important task of the Saints defense team now is no longer to cut off the advance, but to prevent touchdowns: free kicks, which are draws, go into overtime; Touchdown, that's a failure, losing the game.
As a result, the task of the Saints' defensive group became single, giving up front-line raid pressure, and all the strength was poured into passing defense, with eight defenders against five receivers, completely crushing the opponent with a numerical advantage, and the defensive group behind throwing off their arms had a faint upper hand.
But for Lu Ke, the number of people has the upper hand, which can be an advantage, but it can also become a disadvantage.
If the two-person joint defense can be done perfectly, then the defensive group can create a big net that does not leak and strangle the offensive group to death; But the problem is that linebacks, cornerbacks, and safety guards have different defensive styles, defensive tasks, and even defensive routes.
Now that everyone is crowded in the same area, there will inevitably be overlapping areas of coverage and man-to-man running, and if you go one step further and the receiver's running route can be finely laid out, then the numerical advantage is likely to be wiped out, not only will you not be able to complete the alignment, but it will also cause a large gap or tilt where one or more defenders have nothing to do.
The focus is on how the wide receiver runs the route, how the close end completes the pick-and-roll, and even how the running guard is used flexibly, and how the quarterback is tactically arranged.
In his mind, the three-dimensional image of the entire stadium was extremely clear, and Lu Ke suddenly flashed a bold offensive plan, stepped forward quickly, and used a series of numbers to represent the running route, rearranging the tactical pattern of advancement, just like a Go master, the wisdom of the game was vividly displayed.
However, in the midst of the thunderous shouts and reinforcements on the scene, his voice was a little weak, which made Lu Ke have to roar and roar hoarsely, and began to deploy troops. The hundreds of running routes in the playbook became extremely clear at this moment, like a hot knife cutting butter, and the entire offensive structure was analyzed.
It's a subtle feeling, and it's wonderful.
The multi-line offensive formation in the shotgun formation was dazzling as soon as kick-off was announced.
Crabtree on the left quickly started up, ran a precise diagonal in the direction of the 45-degree angle on the right, and swept the entire court with a powerful momentum, whether it was someone closely watching, or someone following the area, his steps never hesitated, regardless of the diagonal forward.
Marcus on the left stood in the middle of the groove, a short five-yard sprint, and then quickly advanced in the direction of the right inward cut, like a thunderous run but paused all the time, as if ready to receive the ball at any time, every position was empty, the only regret was that it was a lateral pull, not a deep push.
Vernon and Logan on the right both ran straight sprints, but there were slight differences, Vernon's footsteps were slightly closer to the central area, while Logan followed a straight line, completing deep strikes, and the two close end forwards ran like galloping horses, and smashed hard into the Saints defense with a heavy punch.
In other words, the powerful momentum of the entire offensive group slammed into the right side, and that kind of unreasonable momentum set off a surging wave, so that the defensive group players reflexively followed the footsteps and moved quickly to the right, no matter who it was, the first reaction was to tilt the center of gravity to the right.
The only exception is Jean.
Jean was on the right and, after starting, made a straight forward move to keep up with Vernon and Logan, but after six or seven yards, he pulled quickly in the direction of the diagonal line to the left, but three big strides were already across the central area and running quickly towards the left near the red zone.
……
After kickoff, Lu Ke stood in his pocket, observing, observing, and still observing.
The impact and pressure of the three defensive forwards could not bring substantial damage to the offensive forwards at all, and the whole pocket protection appeared solid and steady, and the wind and waves were calm; But the price is that the backcourt is bloody, and there is no exact passing target in sight, to be precise, it is completely messy.
Obviously, the target of the pass was Jean.
According to the plan, the entire running route is tilted to the right, forcing the center of gravity of the defenders to shift, and there is no need to completely lose position, only a little time difference, complete the connection with short passes, avoid the defenders in the deep area, and then use Jean's speed advantage to forcefully overtake and complete the follow-up advance.
Even if he couldn't complete a touchdown, Jean was able to avoid the hard-hit area and use the inertia and power of the sprint to rush out of the touchline and stop the game.
But the accident came at a critical moment, and Jean was greedy.
His running foot began to invade the middle pass area, less than three steps away from the defenders, and after their center of gravity shook, at the critical moment, he forced a second start, and then sprinted towards Jean at the first time, and the three players completed the encirclement like hungry tigers.
The passing window was fleeting, and the best chance was lost in the waves.
Needless to say, numerical superiority is still an insurmountable barrier in rugby.
Then Lu Ke was in prison. This was originally a well-designed, audacious tactic, too risky, too exciting, once he missed the window, Lu Ke would fall into infinite passivity, and the rewards and punishments were proportional as if they were now.
No passing target!
After missing Jean, Lu Ke couldn't find the passing target in his sight, for a second! Two seconds! Three seconds! Four seconds! The passage of time is snuffing out the San Francisco 49ers' advantage little by little, and they are gradually falling into passivity, not only in this attack, but also in the subsequent free-kick attempts.
At this moment, Marcus sensed Lu Ke's predicament, his footsteps paused, went and returned, and returned to the central area from the right side, one step and one raised his hand, Lu Ke and Marcus instantly completed the visual communication, and the hand rose and fell, and the rugby ball was quickly passed out, but a four-yard short pass easily crossed the offensive and defensive fronts, and fell into the arms of Marcus.
But after delaying for too long, the attacking group missed maneuver and flexibility, and the defensive group gradually began to gain the upper hand.
After Marcus finished receiving the ball, the defenders had also completed the adjustment of their center of gravity, and four players surrounded him from different directions, tight and airtight.
After turning around, his eyes swept away, and Marcus made an accurate judgment in an instant, even if he forced it forward, it would be difficult to form a breakthrough, and it was bound to consume a lot of game time, which was exactly what they could not afford to consume.
Marcus went to the ground, aborted the push, and immediately handed the ball to the referee, signaling that they would kick off immediately.
It's a wise choice.
