210 Vicious Raid
"Viewers, viewers who have just turned on the TV, welcome to Fox TV, we are now watching the second week of the NFL regular season, the San Francisco 49ers' first road game of the season, traveling to Cincinnati to take on the Tigers. I'm Kirk Charleston, and my partner Teddy Williams and I still bring you the commentary of the game. ”
After two weeks of adaptation and warm-up, Kirk has gradually become accustomed to the rhythm of the TV station, and the organization of discourse has begun to flow smoothly.
"The biggest attraction of this game is undoubtedly the matchup between two rookie quarterbacks, Lu Ke and Andy Dalton." After a brief introduction, Kirk immediately cut to the topic, "Just now Dalton led the team to the first round of attack, what do you think about this, Teddy?" ”
'Dalton certainly showed good passing touch, completing four of his six passes and assisting two runs. The balance and fluidity of the whole attack was excellent. Teddy's commentary was also smooth and fast, "However, today was Dalton's home debut, and it was clear that he was a little nervous, and the deviation of the two failed passes was outrageous, and the receiver could not have received the rugby ball at all, and although he pushed past half time, he was not able to score." Next, it will be up to Dalton to adjust his form, and his performance in front of the home fans is undoubtedly under great pressure. ”
"I agree. On the other hand, playing away from home is also a severe test, this is the first away game of Lu Ke's career, and for him, the challenge is estimated to be more difficult than Dalton. Kirk picked up the conversation and made a quick comment, "Still, for the league, every game the quarterback is making history. So, let's take a look at the performance of this undrafted rookie today. ”
While speaking, the San Francisco 49ers' offensive group officially entered the court, and the cooperation between Kirk and Teddy gradually began to have a tacit understanding. However, in the blink of an eye, the game was "interrupted".
"Oh! This time the grappling was too fast and fierce. Lu Ke has no chance, almost no chance. Teddy couldn't help frowning, as if the person he had just been captured was himself, and felt the pain with empathy, "Let's watch the replay again." ”
"After kick-off, the Cincinnati Tigers showed a strong attacking power, unexpectedly relaxed the long-pass defense in the backcourt, invested strong and heavy troops to carry out surprise attacks, and the impact of seven players completely tore apart the offensive line of the San Francisco 49ers." Kirk took over the burden of narration and drew a yellow circle on the screen, "It's not just the counterpoint advantage of numbers, but also the misalignment of tactics." The Tigers' defensive front line had the absolute upper hand. This is it! ”
Kirk nodded the yellow circle and signaled to Lu Ke's position on the blind side of the left hand, "The concentrated breakthrough of the three players, the offensive front line of the 49ers was overwhelmed, and only had time to block one, and there were two players left, one bypassed the offensive front line and rushed from the outside; One went through the gap in the pocket and made a tackle. ”
Teddy involuntarily let out an exclamation, "This defense, the Tigers completely caught the 49ers off guard with a blitzkrieg situation. Let's see the time...... Wow, in just 2.21 seconds, it took only 2.21 seconds for the Tigers to completely break through the offensive front line and complete the grappling, fast, ferocious, and aggressive, leaving not much time and reaction space for the opposing quarterback. The Tigers showed a defensive intensity that they didn't have in the previous two games. ”
"Yes, it was an accident." Kirk agreed, "In the last two games, the Tigers have dropped 563 yards and dropped 41 points, and the defense is really not tough enough. But today, in front of the home crowd, they took on a new look, and it was going to be a tough game for the San Francisco 49ers' young offensive team. ”
In the first gear of the home game, the Cincinnati Tigers showed a strong "attack".
In rugby, it's not just the offensive team that has offensive power, but also the defensive team and the special service team that have offensive power – conceding the ball, making tackles, making mistakes and variables in the game, and other players can also show fierce aggression, control the game, and win points.
Moreover, unlike in football games, the offensive awareness of defensive backfield players is too strong, and if you are not careful, it will leave an opportunity for the opponent to take advantage of; Rugby is not so troubled. Defenders can "attack" as much as they want.
In some teams, the defensive group even outperforms the offensive group in scoring power. It's not normal, it's not reasonable, but it's real.
In this attack just now, the Cincinnati Tigers showed their "attack power", and successfully harvested the first tackle of today's game with the strong momentum of the tigers descending the mountain.
The players piled up on his body walked away one after another, and Lu Ke stood up again, gasping for breath, and a faint pain came from his right shoulder. In the grappling just now, the action itself was not fierce, but the falling momentum was too strong, and the pain in the shoulder could be clearly felt.
"Bambi, are you okay?" Anthony Davis and Joe Stanley hurriedly walked up with apologetic faces. They are the left interceptor and the left guard, responsible for protecting Lu Ke's blind side, the pocket is completely torn apart, and the quarterback is directly captured, which is their responsibility.
Lu Ke waved his hand, signaling that he was fine. The frustration and anger had subsided, and he realized his nervousness and distraction. The impact of away games, the ubiquity, the unrelenting tackles, this is the direct result.
Many times, there is no way to control the nervousness, even if the four elite quarterbacks, standing on the stage of the Super Bowl, are just as nervous; The best way to deal with tension is not to relieve or relieve it, but to devote yourself to the game, concentrate and turn tension into motivation.
Lu Ke forced himself to calm down, looked at it quickly, and then caught the figure of the Tigers No. 97.
Geno-Atkins, defensive tackle. This is a sophomore who entered the league in last year's draft and was one hundred and twenty picks in the fourth round.
There were only a handful of playing opportunities in his rookie season, and there was little performance; But this year, he started the defensive team, handing in two tackles and three forced rushes in his first two games. It's not spectacular, but it's also an important part of the defensive team.
Lu Ke's mind had all the corresponding information. To prepare for a match, he has to know every aspect of his opponent so that he is not caught off guard. Although there were no highlights in the previous two games, Atkins completed the first tackle of his career in the first attack.
Atkins' youthful face was celebrating his first takedown; But after the celebration, he quickly recovered and began to adjust his breathing and movements. It can be seen that the professional attitude is worthy of affirmation.
Lu Ke beckoned Davis and Stanley over, "Ninety-seven." You need to pay more attention. "I'm not a key defender yet," he says, "he's average speed, but he's very powerful. When defending, the offensive awareness is very strong, and it is easy to create misalignments. Next, be careful. ”
The cheering and shouting at Paul Brown Stadium was extremely annoying, and the cacophony was intermittent, like a swarm of flies, buzzing around the ears, far and near, light and heavy, always unpredictable, but lingering.
Lu Ke only opened his mouth to say two words, and then his train of thought was interrupted, raised his head, and glanced around the grandstand seats. The absence of at least a third of the stands is really a bit chilling, but it is precisely for this reason that the cheering is even more unpredictable.
"......" Lu Ke retracted his attention and was about to continue arranging tactics, but his thoughts couldn't help but pause for a moment, and there was a blank space for a moment, and then he recalled and beckoned his teammates over.
"The mistake just now is mine." Lu Ke did not evade responsibility, under the influence of the nervousness of the away battle, the reading defense was not in place, which was the root cause of the whole capture; Now that they realize the problem, they have to solve it, "We need to move!" Lu Ke clenched his fist hard and quickly arranged his tactics.
Screen short pass.
In the face of the defensive group's powerful rushing passes, the offensive team has many different responses. The efficiency of the professional league was immediately reflected, and after the failure of the first attack, the analysis team above the court quickly completed the communication with the coaching team, formulated the corresponding tactics, and accurately conveyed to Lu Ke through the headset: screen short pass.
The voice in the headset also further confirmed: Ninety-seven, in the raid just now, performed really well.
After arranging again, Lu Ke did not rush to kick off, his eyes fell on Atkins, and the teammates on both sides of him, his eyes were sharp and tough head-on, the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and he could clearly smell the imminent danger, and then, the noise and noise in his ears gradually began to move away.
"Attack!"
Ranked in the pistol formation, Lu Ke shouted; At the same time, the roar of a waterfall was like a roar of support, gushing down, the whole stadium was full of sound and light, and the air began to boil.
In the next second, Lu Ke noticed the flight trajectory of the rugby.
It's high!
Jonathan Goodwin's tee shot was actually high, the parabola was raised high, and Lu Ke's hands on his chest had to be raised, and he picked up the rugby ball diagonally above his head, in less than a blink of an eye, in the "bang bang" impact, the offensive front line was torn again, and a large number of white jerseys could be seen pouring into a black patch in the sight-
The San Francisco 49ers' away jersey is white, the same as the Cincinnati Tigers' home jersey. After negotiation, the 49ers opted for an all-black jersey.
Stepping back, stepping back quickly, Lu Ke's vision was like a scanner, sweeping the defensive front line and sweeping the receiving player, but it was too late. The figure of No. 97 swept like a storm!
