565 Devil's Home Field
As the 2011 season draws to a close, does anyone remember that matchup in the first week of the regular season?
For the 49ers and the twelve, that game should be unforgettable, because for both fans, the impression was so deep that it even carried the smell of gunpowder throughout the season.
San Francisco 49ers touchdown, Seattle Seahawks also scored; The San Francisco 49ers scored another touchdown, and the Seattle Seahawks only took a free kick, and then the game ended in a stalemate, ending the first half; After the second half kicked off again, the San Francisco 49ers gradually pulled away and finally closed the season with five touchdowns, beating their opponents strongly.
Now everyone has the same question mark in their minds: is this the case again?
Because, the San Francisco 49ers scored another touchdown!
"Incredible! It's incredible! ”
After letting out an exclamation, Kirk himself chuckled, "The director told me just now that some viewers complained on the live broadcast message board that the adjectives 'incredible' and 'wonderful' are really used so often that they have now become my signature." Haha, that's true. ”
"Now we can look back at the attack just now, and the audience can understand my mood."
Kirk began to break down the entire offense in detail, and at the same time, the director began to replay the game footage, using the gap between the team's celebrations and the special service team coming on the field to quickly complete the commentary.
"The Seahawks defense team has significantly increased the intensity of the raid, trying to avoid letting Lu Ke pass the ball in a comfortable pocket, and their entire raid pattern draws on some of the experience of the two games between the Ravens and the Steelers, focusing on pressure, supplemented by unexpected raids, and making the quarterbacks as nervous as possible to observe the pass. They have achieved good results. ”
"But we can see how Lu Ke handles."
"Once in the face of strong pressure, he took the initiative to step forward and complete the connection with Vernon Davis, who was pulling to the middle area; Once the pocket was torn, he chose to throw the ball in parallel at the last moment, Marcus Lynch, and then Logan Newman completed the pick-and-roll to help Marcus carry the ball forward. ”
"Another hard pressure on the passer and jumping up to try to break the pass. He opened up with two step-back steps, delivered a high parabola from a rainbow pass, and again found Vernon Davis in the short area opposite the corner-back, who used his size to get the ball on his hand. ”
"We can see that in the chaos of the pockets, he never panicked and was always able to make passing choices in the nick of time; Secondly, those seemingly simple passes, but Lu Ke's prediction of the position of the defender and the mastery of the player's alignment are all in his mind, and every choice can occupy a small advantage, even if it is just two or three yards more, but the accumulated advantage makes the Seahawks tired. ”
'On the last pass, we all saw the result of the touchdown, but it was crucial to build up the advantage before that. Faced with a three-yard situation in three gears, just when everyone's attention was on Vernon Davis and Logan Newman, Lu Ke found Ted Jean on the run with an unmistakable shot, a 31-yard long pass that stabbed the Seahawks in the soft underbelly. ”
"Jean shook off the safety guard with an overwhelming advantage, and then there were no challenges or obstacles, and he easily made it to the end zone and scored the second touchdown of the game."
The key points of the entire offense have been replayed, and after Kirk pointed out the key points, he summed it up:
"Tactical selection, defensive reading, and on-the-spot scheduling, this is the most amazing part of Lu Ke's growth so far this season. In the first week of the regular season, we were impressed with his long passing, but now it has become one of the weapons in the arsenal, more rational and wiser to control the game. ”
At this point, the Secret Service team was already on the field and started to kick the ball with extra points, and Teddy took over, "So...... Incredible. Right? ”
"Yes, incredible." Kirk laughed heartily, "It's absolutely terrifying for a rookie quarterback to grow at such a rate, and sometimes, I even suspect he's an alien." ”
"So, the kind of 'alien ET'?" Teddy quipped, and both of them laughed wordlessly.
Then, the game started again. But the course of the game was not the direction expected by the Century Hammer Throw venue: this script seems to have been taken wrong.
Because the Seattle Seahawks' offense suffered a strikeout, unfortunately only a free kick attempt, and after the free kick was scored, the twelve people collectively were a little confused, looking at the score of "10:14" on the big screen, the home team was filled with an ominous premonition, is it true that this game is going to completely replicate the first week of the regular season?
The beginning and the progression are already consistent, so what about the ending?
However, such panic and uneasy speculation only spread for a while, and then it was successfully broken, because the course of the game was finally different!
The remainder of the first half was not deadlocked, and the San Francisco 49ers, who appeared for the third time, completed another touchdown to further widen the score gap to "10:21".
In this touchdown, it was Marcus Lynch who made the merit.
Lu Ke, who was on the battlefield again, really activated Vernon Davis in this game, and brought the changes of the two-end forward's tactics to the extreme, and the complexity and variety of tactics also made people feel Jim Hubble's coaching level in an all-round way.
Due to the huge threat of long passing stunts all the time, like a time bomb, it is like a time bomb that stubbornly holds back a security guard who must guard the backfield, which also makes the Seahawks' defense stretched in the first half and can never complete effective coverage; And Lu Ke's accurate defensive reading and early prediction have the upper hand, repeatedly tearing up the defense in the short and middle pass areas.
The Seattle Seahawks' defense is a bit of a stretch and weary of struggles.
The San Francisco 49ers played steadily like this, and this wave of offense did not face a three-gear crisis, at most two offenses were able to get the first attack, once and again, in the blink of an eye, they pushed through the half-court, and methodically entered the red zone, and finally handed the football to Marcus at the critical moment.
The presence of two near end forwards is a big killer in the red zone, two corner backs and two outside linebacks did not dare to take it lightly, and as a result, they lost one or the other, falling behind by half a beat, when they realized that the San Francisco 49ers chose to run the ball and attack, the defensive group's supplementary defense has obviously fallen behind, and finally, Marcus crashed away from the outside lineback, dodged the tackle of the defensive tackle, and hit the end zone.
It was a four-yard dashing touchdown.
After all, the course of the game has changed, the sixteenth week of the regular season is not the first week of the regular season after all, and the fate cloud of "repeating the mistakes of the past" that continues to hang over the head is now finally dissipating, but the problem is that the home fans don't seem to be happy, and there is no way to celebrate, and the scene suddenly becomes weird-
In the first half of the game, the San Francisco 49ers showed a fiery offensive state, easily scored three touchdowns, Lu Ke can score points every time he appears, and in a blink of an eye, the score gap between the two teams has been opened, and then, the pressure of chasing points on the Seattle Seahawks offensive group is even more terrifying!
After a long sullen breath, the twelves picked up their spirits again, booed the visitors, and welcomed the home team back with applause, their confidence did not seem to be affected too much, and even after eleven points of loss, they still held their heads high and showed their determination to beat their opponents.
This confidence is definitely not groundless.
The Seahawks' offense has truly been upside down this season, averaging just 12.3 points per game until the ninth week of the regular season, including a humiliating clean sheet on the road against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the second week, and a record of just two wins and six losses – including a week off.
After week 10 of the regular season, they are averaging 27 points per game and have scored more than 30 points in their last three games to record five wins and one loss, including a crucial home win over the Baltimore Ravens to put the team back in contention for the playoffs.
Although it is a bit strange to say that their quarterback is Travis Jackson, it is not the defensive group that makes the Seahawks competitive again, but the offensive group!
Travis also delivered the best passing performance of his career, and now he has passed more than 2,700 yards, and by the end of the season, more than 3,000 yards should not be a problem.
So, the Century Chain Stadium cheered and shouted again, doing its best to cheer for the home team.
But alas, in the face of the San Francisco 49ers' strong defense, the Seattle Seahawks' offensive group, which has performed extremely well in the past three games, seems to be unable to open up the situation, except for Mashawn Lynch, the success rate of the entire offense has been intermittent and unable to maintain fluidity, which also makes their entire offense stumble.
After another half-time, another strikeout was given, but a 48-yard free-kick was given, and kicker Steven-Hauschka slotted it home to make it 13:21.
Although it was only a free kick, the Seattle Seahawks still clung to the score and did not fall behind, which already made the home fans frenzied, cheers and screams were overwhelming, and it seemed to be roaring towards the San Francisco 49ers:
Did you see that? We didn't disarm and surrender! We didn't give up! The outcome of this game is yet to be known! Not only did we not lose, but our goal was still to win! Did you see that? We will blow the horn of counterattack! Anything is possible!
Once again, the Century Chain Stadium showed an unrivalled strength, a strong declaration of the power of the league's devil's home field, and the home team was demoralized, while the away team was panicked.
Faced with such a situation, how did the MVP candidate Lu Ke respond?
A long biography.
