A shoulder injury left Luis unable to do anything. He lay in a hospital bed and read more than a dozen tactical books on offense and defense.

After reading the book, I will pass the competition to verify the statements in the book and some of my own ideas. This approach inevitably feels like a piece of paper, but as he accumulates experience, it also makes him more and more aware of rugby.

"Do you remember the special route we practiced?" Louis tapped his head with two fingers. This is the symbol of the triangular route set by him and Yi Fan.

Once Yi Fan makes this move during the race, he will run on a specific route and reach the designated place.

As long as Yi Fan can pass the ball, he can complete the advancement.

"There's a theory called "boxing," and to improve the success rate of this route, you have to apply this theory. Of course, you can also refer to it in the usual offense. ”

Quarterback coach Snell wasn't there, and Yi Fan didn't learn much of a theoretical thing.

Hearing Louis say this, he was naturally very interested.

"Imagine that in front of our offensive line, there's a ten-yard square area, which we call a box."

Yi Fan closed his eyes and began to make up the picture according to Louis's description.

"In this area, in addition to our attacking players, there are also opposing defenders. In general, there may only be four defensive linebackers and one linebacker. And our goal is to bring more people into the area. Once the more defenders enter the zone, the easier it is for the wide receiver to receive the pass. ”

Louis said it very well, and Yi Fan could easily imagine that picture.

The two wide receivers pulled away and pinned down the opposing two cornerbacks, while the remaining two linebacks and defensive ends were handed over to the close end and half-backs. In this way, there will only be two security guards left for the opponent's defenders. Luis continued.

This kind of offensive and defensive arrangement is very common in advancement, and it can be described as very common. Yi Fan has encountered many times during the competition when he was practicing.

As Luis said, in Yi Fan's mind, there are still two safety guards wandering around the defensive second line.

"At this point, pay close attention to the position of the two security guards. From their point of view, it's hard to see the details up front because they're blocked by their team-mates. But quarterbacks have a wider view and are able to see where the opposition is. ”

These two safety guards are the heart of the defensive second line and often determine how well the offense progresses.

"If those two guards are in the box, it means that the opposition is tight defensively and can take advantage of the opportunity to boldly play the pass attack with the wide receiver. At this point, the success rate will be higher if you use the triangle run tactic. ”

After listening to Luis's explanation, Yi Fan said: "So when these two security guards are not in the box, you can launch a ground attack. ”

Louis didn't expect Yi Fan to be so smart and learn to draw inferences so quickly.

"Theoretically, yes, it's going to be a good option to spread out the opposition defense and let the running back do the ground attack, or you can run on your own."

Yi Fan slowly opened his eyes, he couldn't believe that the "box theory" that sounded very high-end was actually so simple and easy to understand.

Don't say it's him, it's just any junior high school student, even an elementary school student can understand.

"What's this. These theories were originally designed to make it easier for players to execute tactical designs, and the more active the better. It's just that in practice, it's not so easy to complete the judgment within a second and a half of the tee-off. ”

Yi Fan didn't expect this bearded senior to know so much. The admiration for him is one more point.

"What other theories are there, let's introduce two more to hear about them." Yifan said.

However, he was severely despised by Louis.

"It's better to learn a hundred than to use one. No matter how much you listen to these things, it's just a theory. Only by constantly playing can you develop a sense of the ball. So in the position of quarterback, they are basically American players, which is the reason. ”

There are not many people who play American football in other countries, and they watch it almost every day, and they often play fewer people. So it's hard to produce good quarterbacks.

Luis looked at the time and said, "It's the playoffs right now." Tonight it should be the Patriots playing Titans. Let's go to the TV in the conference room to watch the game, maybe it's more intuitive. ”

The New England Patriots, the traditional powerhouse of the NFL. The American League is first in the Eastern Conference and second in the American League. The Titans, on the other hand, finished second in the American League difficulty division, having just experienced a wild card tournament and successfully reached the second round.

Everyone who plays here is an NFL fan, and naturally they won't miss the opportunity to make the playoffs.

Although the coaching staff stipulates that you are not allowed to watch the game during training. But seeing that Luis made a start, Matthews, Barkley and others also slowly came over and listened to Luis's analysis while watching the game.

At this time, it was the Patriots' turn to attack in second gear and ten yards, and Luis pointed to the screen and asked Yi Fan, "If it were you, how would you organize this offense?" ”

On the court, the Patriots fielded two main running backs to adopt a strong offensive lineup, and they were ready to walk on the ground, but the two wide receivers were wide open again, leaving space for passing offense and pouring in to confuse the opponent.

In the previous offenses, the Patriots have used ground offense, considering that the opponent likes to combine pass and run. The two Titans' two guards all stood out of the box to prevent the opponent's pass attack.

"If it's me, if I see that the other two security guards are standing out of the box, then I will hit the ground decisively." Yifan said.

Sure enough, the Patriots immediately chose to give the ball to the running back, took a ground rush, and managed to get six yards away, reducing the pressure on the third-gear offense.

"The box theory is very basic, and it's not very common for a situation as obvious as it was just now, and smart security guards tend to stand on the edge of the box and even switch positions at the moment of kickoff."

is the so-called false and real, true and false, and soldiers are not tired of deceit.

Rugby relies not only on physical confrontation, but also on psychological warfare.

There were more and more people watching the game in the conference room, and Yifan was a little overwhelmed.

"Why don't we talk to the coaching staff, open a projection, watch the game together, and analyze the tactics. It's too crowded here. Yi Fan proposed.

"I wanted to propose to the coach just now, but I couldn't find him, I don't know where to go." Someone replied.

Johnson is usually on the pitch during training and rarely goes elsewhere.

It's still relatively rare to not find a figure at a time like this.

At this moment, Diana walked in quickly, beckoned to everyone and said, "What are you doing here!" Hurry up and get them all out! The Lions are here! ”
