1764 On-the-spot contingency
Goyle's legs exploded with incredible power, and he shook off Paris's grappling in an instant, and then there were no defenders in sight out of sight, no defenders on the left and no right side, except for Duke-Ihenacho, the defender in front of him diagonally on the right, who was sprinting towards him at full speed.
Goyle's footsteps skimmed lightly to the left, and then accelerated with all his might, and in an instant he overtook Eennacho's encirclement area, forming a breakthrough; Eennacho then quickly sprinted sideways, rushing towards Goyle like a hungry tiger pounced, grabbing Goyle's waist!
However, Ian Nacho's footsteps were completely destroyed, and even if he grappled Goyle, he was unable to use his center of gravity and weight to force Goyle to fall to the ground; Instead, Goyle burst out with unparalleled strength, pulling Ian Nacho forward in a stumbling footstep.
Three yards.
Five yards.
Ten yards.
Until Ian Nacho's whole body was completely overturned, but his hands still did not let go, grabbed Goyle's waist, used the power of his fall, and made a wrestling technical move, directly throwing Goyle into the air and flipping out, ending the attack with brute force.
Despite this, the entire Mets stadium was still boiling, all nine people jumped and cheered excitedly, and even the VIP room was filled with exciting cheers, for this ground advancement, but also for the San Francisco 49ers offensive team to show a tough recovery.
Goyle advanced twenty-seven yards! Not only did he get the first first attack of the San Francisco 49ers of the game, but he also tore apart the Denver Broncos' defense with a strong ground push! The spectacular performance instantly detonated the first high/climax of the game, even more than the previous two touchdowns.
Countless eyes were all focused on Goyle in an instant, but Malik Jackson's eyes fell on Lu Ke for the first time:
Fooled!
Although Malik has no way to get a glimpse of the overall situation, there is no way to know how Lu Ke's tactical layout was completed and how he created a vacuum in the central area; But Malik knew that Lu Ke was showing his "magic" - all of them thought it was a passing attack, and Lu Ke chose to attack on the ground without hesitation, and instantly let the tactical layout of the defensive group step into the trap, which is the fundamental reason.
So, should they change their defensive tactics? Malik was confused, but also alert.
Lu Ke seemed to notice Malik's gaze, turned his head, and then he could see Lu Ke raise the corners of his mouth and show a smile towards Malik, "Damn!" Malik couldn't help but want to curse, "That little fox! Something must be being calculated now! ”
Malik's animal instincts were correct, and Lu Ke was indeed calculating the defensive group.
The entire defensive strategy of the Denver Broncos is very clear - rushing and pressing from the front line, completely crushing and destroying the offensive front line of the San Francisco 49ers with a posture of one force and ten clubs, and then interrupting Lu Ke's tactical layout and passing rhythm.
This is undoubtedly the most suitable tactic for Denver in terms of the state of San Francisco's offensive front, and it is also the tactic that defensive coach Del Rio is best at, they do not have the ability to cover the whole court like the Seattle Seahawks, and choose to concentrate all their forces on one point, form a tough break, and then seek a breakthrough from point to point, which is a wise choice.
What if front-line pressure tactics don't work? What if Lu Ke got rid of the sackling crisis and sought a passing line? Then it will be fatal for the defensive second line. Del Rio is well aware of this, but the limitations of the Denver Broncos' own defensive team, combined with the limitations of Del Rio's own ability, make it difficult for him to make more changes - then the defensive tactics are very obvious, rather than distracting too much energy and affecting the overall effect of useless attempts, it is better to concentrate on forming a breakthrough in the strong area.
It's wise!
By the way, Denver Broncos head coach John Fox, the coach who has been in the league for more than three decades, has been in the industry since 1978, he started in the defensive team, and after two decades of going around in different positions in the defensive group of various teams, he officially became the defensive coach of the New York Giants in 1997, and after five seasons, he moved to the Carolina Panthers as head coach, and then came to the Denver Broncos in 2011 to take the helm.
John Fox's strength lies in the pre-match preparation, he is like a living textbook, he can always show his ability at the pre-battle layout level, not only for the defensive group, but also for the offensive group tactics are quite insightful, but his weakness is to adapt on the spot, his tactical changes are always unable to keep up with the pace of the game, and when changes or decisions need to be made at critical moments, he always makes wise and correct choices.
In the Denver Broncos team, the offensive tactics were developed by the offensive coach Adam Gaiss and Fox, but the on-the-spot tactical formation was dominated by Gaiss - it was under Gais's instruction that Big Manning obtained the juxtaposition decision-making power of the offensive group tactics, and brought Da Manning's ability to the extreme, and the wisdom of the two offensive "coaches" collided, which made the Denver Broncos offensive team shine in the 2013 season.
On the other hand, the layout of defensive tactics and on-the-spot command is personally supervised by Fox, but Fox has not been in good physical condition this season, due to heart problems, he had to be hospitalized in the middle of the regular season, and defensive coach Del Rio served as interim head coach for four weeks. After Fox was discharged from the hospital, it was up to him to join forces with Del Rio to decide on the tactical command on the spot.
Because of this, Fox and Del Rio knew their strengths and weaknesses, and their pre-game tactical layout was very detailed, even ahead of Hubble, winning a slight advantage in the opening stages; But the advantage of San Francisco is that Hubble and Lu Ke are both flexible and changeable types, and they can always think of more solutions on the spot, and now, Lu Ke is making changes -
The Denver Broncos' entire defensive center of gravity is clearly pressing, and in addition to rushing passes, the passing defense in the short pass area is also using a counter-marking strategy rather than a zone defense - in this attack, when Ankun Boulding moved from the left wing to the right wing, the opposing lineback Champ Bailey followed suit, so what does this mean?
This means that as long as Lu Ke skims the running route of the receiver out, then the central zone can be emptied.
And so it is.
After the kick-off, the two wide receivers and two close end forwards both ran towards their outside, which also caused the two outside defenders and two corner-backs to move towards the outside, leaving only central lineback Paris Lyon in the center; At the same time, the Denver Broncos' defensive front line will inevitably step up to press, while the offensive front line will be in a-for-tat alignment, opening the way in the center and Goyle will be able to form a one-on-one with Paris.
Clearly, Paris was not able to stop Goyle; And security guard Ian Nacho was not able to complete the grappling task either.
The entire defense of the Denver Broncos is too focused on the front end, and if you don't pay attention to it, you can be caught by Lu Ke, so is this a one-time situation or a common phenomenon?
For Malik, he believes this is the beginning of Lu Ke's counterattack, but the strategy of defensive tactics must be decided by Fox and Del Rio - not to mention, even if he is asked to change tactics, he does not know what to do is the best choice, the only thing he can do is to stick to his mission.
So, how will Lu Ke lay out next?
With Goyle's efficient run, the San Francisco 49ers made it to the Denver half, to the 45-yard line, and again faced a 10-yard run.
Lu Ke stood in his pocket, carefully observing the defensive formation of the Denver Broncos, as expected, the entire formation has not changed, and the defensive tactics have not changed significantly - for ordinary teams, it is impossible for them to say that the wind is rain, and tactical changes are bound to take time and brew; This is especially true for the Denver Broncos, with both Fox and Del Rio preferring to watch a little longer before making changes.
This is Lu Ke's opportunity.
The San Francisco 49ers' offensive formation changed slightly, making the close end Logan and Vernon on the inside of the left and right wings half a step back on the basis of a two-by-two formation, which also made the edges of the pocket protection slightly intracted; Correspondingly, the two wide receivers are at the forefront.
"Attack!"
Lu Ke quickly stepped back with the ball in both hands, and with a sweep, you can see the Denver Broncos once again executing the four-man rush pass tactic, and the three linebacks are also aggressively preparing to step up, but all this is expected by Lu Ke, and it can be clearly seen that the San Francisco pocket protection is solid and secure-
Because Logan and Vernon both retreated! Folded pocket protection, the offensive front line evolved into a seven-man protection, tightly blocking all rushing forces, even if Malik rushed forward with all his might, San Francisco's pocket protection was still leaky.
Lu Ke sacrificed two receiving points to build an indestructible pocket protection for himself, so what about the passing target? Lu Ke naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to break his wings but there was no alternative, the answer was-
Frank Goyle!
Gao Er, who was originally standing on Lu Ke's side, quickly stepped up past Lu Ke and made a fake handover action for ground attack, but the action was not distracted at all, just a slight shake, and he jumped out directly along the left slot, and the retreat of the two near-end forwards was replaced by the upper step of the running back.
The switch of the whole offensive position function made it impossible for the defenders to make accurate predictions, and the footsteps of the three linebacks were always cruising and shaking on the front line, they did not expect the retreat of the close end, and they noticed the advance of the running back, so they did not dare to lose their positions easily, which also won the opportunity for the attacking team -
Wide receivers Michael Crabtree and Ankuang Boulding jumped out from each side of the flanks to make a two-on-four, but they took the lead in the course of the run!
