1439 Tightrope Dance

What's the biggest reason why the Seattle Seahawks defensive team has been able to sweep the league this season?

Bombard the Legion?

It is true that the powerful power of the Blasters has dealt a serious blow to the quarterback's passing offense, but the Blasters are not omnipotent, and they also need the support of their teammates, otherwise they will not be able to use their strength as a second-line defender; What really made the entire defensive group complete the essential transformation is the ability to change the defensive front line-

Why is the captain of the defensive group often the lineback? Or why is the defensive lineback the quarterback opposite the offensive group? It's because the lineback can initiate a change in the entire defensive tactics △ The defensive front of the Yatu Seahawks has the ability to switch between pressing and rushing passes at will, and in the head-to-head confrontation with the offensive group, they can often take the lead in breaking the rhythm control of the quarterback, and then win more defensive space for their own bombardment team.

To put it simply, the defensive front can put pressure hard or wait for an opportunity to attack, both of which have the league's top level of strength, and can disrupt the rhythm of the quarterback's tactical layout at any time, and then lay the foundation for the Seattle Seahawks' entire defensive group to be tough.

Judging purely from the data, the number of quarterbacks or interceptions, conversions and other ball conversions, the defensive front line is far less dazzling than the bombardment team, but they are like metronomes, controlling the core of the defensive group's tactical layout.

Even Lu Wei is no exception, the information obtained through defensive reading is very limited, which also greatly weakens his ability to win the advantage by judging in advance and laying out in advance - just relying on "guessing" to complete the game, this will not work, the outcome will inevitably be a failure, he must be based on the study of the game video, through defensive reading to control the situation.

Entering the showdown at a critical moment, according to Lu Ke's understanding and judgment, the Seattle Seahawks defensive team will deliberately open up the formation and open the short pass area-

If it was last season's Seahawks, the short passing area was a trap; But after the promotion this season, the Seahawks, who have strong confidence in their true love, do not need to make traps, and the formation is to concentrate the intensity of the entire defense and destroy the offensive tactical layout of the quarterback.

So, after kick-off, Lu Yu quickly retreated, and took a preemptive stance to distance his footsteps from the confrontation between the two fronts.

"Attack!"

With the sound, it can be clearly seen from Lu Que's continuous retreat that there has been a small change in the Seattle Seahawks defensive group again, but everything has changed, and they really pulled the entire defensive formation apart B means that the judgment is correct!

Three of the four defensive forwards are in unison to rush and pass - not just to put pressure on each other, but to use three players to complete the rushing pass, which is a very bold defensive tactic, because three rushing passes against five offensive forwards often cannot take any advantage, for other teams, this is equivalent to giving up the frontline confrontation and concentrating all defensive forces in the backfield; But the Seattle Seahawks are not "other teams", and strong individual ability is once again the key to changing the game.

Brandon Bane, a defensive tackle in the center, stepped forward and met Jonathan Goodwin's onslaught, and the two men faced off.

Defensive ends on either side, Red-Bryant and Chris Clemens, flipped out in unison towards their own outside, trying to bypass offensive tackles on either end of the offensive line and form a break from the outside, their position completely avoiding the assistance and slots of the two inside offensive guards, allowing Mike Ruppati and Anthony Davis to create gaps in an instant, while Joe Stanley and Alex Boone had to step back to form an interception.

Because Bryant and Clemens' detour raid completely interpreted the mystery of "suddenly", Stanley and Boone had to retreat again and again to be able to get stuck in their positions, but their innate advantages had been lost, and they were not able to fully stand on their heels, and the standoff was losing ground one after another.

Rupati and Anthony were completely emptied.

This is the intention of the Seattle Seahawks defensive team, using individual ability to form a heads-up confrontation, "three against three"; Then through the misplaced tactical layout, Rupati and Anthony were put in the air. At this point, Rupati and Anthony were unable to get past their teammates to assist the two defensive ends on the outside of the bypass, and could only assist Goodwin in defending defensive tackle Mabeln on the inside.

Waste of resources!

This is a real waste of resources, and when the defensive team creates a huge threat with three rushing passes - because Bryant and Clemens' rushing passes are gradually eating away at the advantage, step by step; Y once a time! Before you know it, the two defensive ends are about to break through and complete the sack.

At the same time, another defensive tackler, Tony McDaniel, joined the linebackers in a series of step-backs, keeping an eye on running back Goyle as they retreated, and quickly joined the Bombers to cut off all the lines of passing defense.

In this way, although the short pass area is empty, Lu Ke has no time or opportunity to pass the ball towards the short pass area. First, the three defenders are creating a series of dangers; Second, eight defenders are responsible for marking four receivers – and if you add in the five receivers who are a beat behind, and that includes a strong Blaster defence, it means that the passing lines are getting narrower and narrower.

Does this defensive formation sound familiar?

In this game alone, the Seattle Seahawks have used it for the third time. But before that, the San Francisco 49ers' offensive starting position was relatively low, which also meant that the defensive group needed to cover a larger area, which also made Lu Ke successfully break the game once; But now that the offense starts above the 22-yard line, the end zone and the area at the front of the end zone are densely populated with visiting players in white jerseys, and the dense phobia may not be able to hold on.

So, what should Lu Xi do?

Step back!

This is Lu Ke's first response plan ♂ before the prediction, Lu Yi did not hesitate to retreat, easily opened the entire pocket space, and then there was a strange scene on the ball bill-

Three offensive forwards teamed up to block a defensive striker; And Bryant and Clemens, the two defenders, both pushed their opposing offensive tacklers to rush forward one after another, Stanley and Boone were losing steadily, and then the former's four-man group formed a gap with the latter's four-man group: Bryant pushed Stanley, Clemens pushed Boone, and they had cut into the pocket, three yards! Five yards were pressing towards Lu Yan step by step, while the other four had been left near the far tee line.

The defensive team created an unimaginable rush through tactical changes, which went completely deep into the pocket and created endless pressure for the quarterback's passes.

However, Lu Ke created enough space by predicting in advance and moving into a Gu in advance, and his steps had already widened the distance in advance, which made Bryant and Clemens's wishful thinking not work directly, at least leaving Lu Ke enough time to react.

Bryant and Clemens still haven't given up, because they both firmly believe that the defensive second line that the Blasters stick to will definitely not leave much space, which also means that Lu Yi has no passing route, Lu Yi is old and moves in the pocket, they only need to continue to press, and they can complete the defensive task!

Advance y advance! Both Bryant and Clemens gritted their teeth and continued to lunge forward.

Boone controlled his body in time, and even though the defense was already about to lose his position, he still held on to Clemens.

Stanley's body was too bulky, and his center of gravity had not been able to adjust back after the initial impact had been confused, and he was retreating like a drinking tank, and now he was completely relying on his weight advantage like a roadblock, and he was stuck in his position with a dead face; But Bryant's breakthrough was only a matter of time.

Lu Ke's footsteps continued to move in his pockets, and his eyes were fixed on the forward rush of the two defensive forwards, but the main focus was still on the passing route, as long as he could send the rugby out, the crisis situation in front of him could be solved. But there is no space!

There is no space at all!

The two close forwards and two wide receivers were completely submerged in the crowd, a faint red in the vast expanse of white, and all the gaps were too narrow and hazy for his pass to be intercepted if he wasn't careful.

Even Goyle, who jumped out of the slot half a step late, was not able to tear out the gap, because an outside lineback had already stuck to Gower's position, and another inside lineback was about to move next to him, as if as long as Lu Ke dared to make a pass, he would dare to shoot the pass, and even intercept the pass. Gower didn't have the space to win too much of a catch.

The Seattle Seahawks' second-tier defense is really too airtight!

Dangerous!

Lu Ke had no time to continue to hesitate, because the opponent's tight defense cut off all Lu Ke's passing lines, which also made Lu Ke's holding time longer than expected, and his crisis appeared again - Bryant was almost about to break through Stanley's card position and was rushing over; Not only Bryant, but also Clemens also slammed Boone away with his shoulder, and then instantly increased his speed and rushed towards Lu Ke.

Neither Stanley nor Boone were able to use rough tactics to avoid fouls, but it was too late to make a foul now, and then Lu Yan fell into a violent wind, and he felt as if he was dancing on a tightrope!

Footsteps, he needs his own steps to save himself!

Damn the defensive group!
