280 The suspense fades away
The defensive front line chose to raid in a fancy way, which was aiming at quarterback Todd Berkman.
Berkman is a qualified system player. His overall tactical ability is relatively balanced. He lacks highlights but has no obvious shortcomings. He lacks explosive power at critical moments and can still play a role in normal promotion. However, "abnormal promotion" is the main component of rugby games.
The so-called "abnormal advancement" means that the offensive forward pocket is subject to strong pressure or torn, which means that the quarterback must complete defensive reading, route judgment, goal selection, pass shooting and other tasks in the storm.
For Berkman, the pressure is over, which is why he cannot enter the NFL and become a professional quarterback.
Under the leadership of Alex Boone, the Oaks' offensive front line performed quite solidly. In addition, the smooth ground attack gave Berkman enough space to move, and his passing performance reached the level; but Lu Yiqi carefully studied the style of the offensive front line through the game video, and after repeated discussions with defensive coaches such as Latimer and Robert, he formulated the corresponding pressure and raid tactics-
Now it finally comes in handy.
Continuous raids, even if they were unable to truly capture and kill Berkman, they still kept Berkman in a stormy state at all times, and his shortcomings gradually became exposed:
Panic, hesitant, indecisive, and the most fatal, inaccurate judgment - if there is an error in judgment, an outrageous pass is still a trivial matter, and interception is the end.
The second-tier defense choice is to wait for an opportunity to delay defense, which is aiming at the wide receiver group.
The Oaks' wide receiver lineup does not have talented players, and Hartlan can only play tactical chess pieces, which also means that they lack the ability to continue to advance after completing the catch.
The Wildcats' defense team consciously adjourned the defensive front position, waiting for the opponent to complete the catch before choosing to step forward. It does not require the opponent to be stuck or destroy the pass as soon as possible, and pursues more defensive success rate - even if the opponent catches the football, the opportunity for continuous advancement will be cut off.
This also allowed the second line of the defensive team to cooperate with the front line. The pressure attack on the front line disrupted Berkman's position, and the success rate of short passes fluctuated, making it more difficult for the wide receiver to catch the ball; the delayed defense on the second line ensures the success rate of the defensive will not easily make mistakes in missing the grapple.
As a result, the overall defensive intensity increased.
The only drawback is that the ground defense has indeed relaxed, allowing the two running backs, Wells and Senna, to gain breathing space.
However, the defense line of the second line is not only for the wide receiver, but also for running backs, which also avoids the running backs rushing out of large yards directly.
Mills and Dunn anticipated pressure from the front line, but did not expect adjustments from the second line. Then, shortly after the Oaks offensive team appeared again, the entire offense became stuttering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
One digit of ten digits, advance the short digit number.
Second-grade certain code, promote the short code number.
Three certain codes, and there are still short codes left.
The overall propulsion efficiency has dropped very significantly, whether it is short pass off or ground offense. The Oaks always have to face a three-level crisis.
Previously, the Wildcats chose to change the offensive rhythm with a quick short pass, dazzling route coordination, continuous rhythm speedup and outstanding personal abilities, and many factors superimposed together, and finally completed the crushing with rhythm, knocking down the Oaks defensive team, and finally the ground advancement also tore through the defense line.
Now, the Oaks are also trying to change the offensive situation by combining short passes and running balls, but... they have nothing. The so-called short pass is also a forced short pass, lacking the coordination of tactical routes. The difficulty of advancing after receiving the short pass is very difficult, which cannot meet the minimum requirement for first-time attack conversion.
After relied on Wells' ground running ball twice in a row, the situation on the field changed suddenly-
"attack!"
Quarterback Berkman just announced the kickoff, and immediately noticed that wide receivers Robisky, Hartlane and Dane Sanzenbacher were all in the dilemma of close-kicking.
Previously, even though Berkman had to face strong passing pressure, at least the position of the wide receiver was clear, and he could finally find the target; and now, all the wide receivers were in the dilemma of one-on-one close-up guarding, and the pressure of the entire second-line defense began to push forward. With the continuous pressure on the front line, they piled up layer by layer like air waves, and the ubiquitous sense of crisis erupted.
Smokes are everywhere!
Berkman was a little panicked.
Berkman could feel that the precarious offensive line seemed to be broken at any time when he was in a hurry. In a hurry, his only idea was to take a quick move, but he could not find the pass space for a long time, which made him panic, and then he became more and more panicked.
It was obvious that the ball should be played quickly, but in the end, I held the football firmly with both hands, as if I were holding my own life-saving straw, and refused to let go easily.
Seeing a purple jersey figure breaking through the offensive front line, Berkman realized that he had been holding the ball for too long and could not hold on in his pocket, so he hurriedly sent out the rugby to the diagonally front of the right;
This was a five-yard short pass, trying to find Hartline; but because the pass was too late, the entanglement between the two forwards was gradually approaching, which forced Berkman to pull up the arc to avoid being intercepted halfway. As a result, in panic, the passing arc was not controlled.
Too high!
The football drew a high arc in the air, and Hartline kept adjusting his steps and trying to complete the catch; but cornerback Cedric stuck in the position, Hartline could not gain the upper hand at all, and his footsteps were a little staggering, trying his best to resist Cedric to avoid the opponent's "cross-the-line" and then creating an interception opportunity.
This is definitely not an easy job!
Then, Hartline realized that he was in a mess with wolves in front and tigers behind. In addition to Cedric, linebacker Permeler was also sprinting horizontally; he tried to stop Permeler, but Cedric's entanglement made him lose his chance and could only watch:
Permeler moved quickly and didn't pay attention to Hartlan at all. All his attention was on the football. As the passing arc began to fall, he put his feet together and pushed the ground with all his might, throwing his whole body directly out, jumping high, stretching his arms and legs to the extreme.
It's like a dolphin jumping over the water and touching an ocean ball.
Permeer's hands appeared on the downward trajectory of the football, intercepting the football head-on in front of Hartline. The shadow of his body enveloped Hartline, and intercepting the football halfway through the sword. He seemed to hear Hartline's heart-wrenching shouts in his ears, but Permeer was focused and held the football firmly with both hands, and his body pulled the ball heavily towards the earth with gravity.
