The San Francisco 49ers' game against the St. Louis Rams was closer and more anxious than expected. There are not too many clues from the score level, but the progress of the game proves this.
The patched defense team of the San Francisco 49ers began to expose problems one after another.
The first is the defensive front. Although the pressure on the front still has a strong impact, the data of four sacks, four collisions with the quarterback and eleven effective pressures are bright enough to continue to cause trouble for the opponent ’s pocket. But they had a serious missed grapple.
Either because of a mistake in cooperation, or because of a personal error, or because of an unexpected situation, for whatever reason, there were at least five obvious missed grapples in the game-two of which directly caused the opponent to complete the third gear conversion, and the other two A large yard above 15 yards was released for ground advancement, which also made the advantages established by all tactical layouts and teammate cooperation instantly return to zero.
From the audience data, the San Francisco 49ers 'defensive front successfully restricted the St. Louis Rams' ground offensive to 124 yards and performed exceptionally well. But it must be noted that only two missed grapples are released for 35 yards, and the serious consequences of the mistake can be seen at a glance.
Fortunately, the 49ers in San Francisco now face the St. Louis Rams, whose offense is not very powerful. If they face a strong opponent like the New Orleans Saints, a mistake at a critical moment may directly bury the entire game's efforts. Now the 49ers in San Francisco need to be thankful that the St. Louis Rams offensive team failed to seize the opportunity.
What's more, the above five missed grapples are not all, these are just obvious serious mistakes. In addition, there were many small mistakes in the course of the game. It was only under the mutual assistance and timely supplementary defense of teammates that did not make the situation worse and stop losses in time. This was not included in the statistical scope.
The second is the defensive second line. After the relatively weak second line lacked rookie security Eric Reid, now facing more challenges-in this game St. Louis Rams coach Jeff Fisher is Aiming at this, the team's ground-based offense style was changed, so that backup quarterback Karen Clemens held up the pass and attacked the flag, hoping to make a breakthrough from here.
Clemens was a second-round pick in 2006 and can now be considered a veteran. He spent the first five seasons of his career in the New York Jets, and then lost his job for nearly a year, wandering between different teams. At the end of the 2011 season, he came to the St. Louis Rams to serve as a substitute for Bradford.
This is a quarterback who has served as the starting player many times. So far, the starting game has exceeded 20 games, and it has been very rare among the backup quarterbacks.
The disadvantage of Clemens is that the pass accuracy is extremely unstable. The average pass success rate in a single season of his career has never exceeded 60%, and he lacks long-pass ability, mainly based on short-pass; the advantage lies in , Have enough knowledge and understanding of the tactical manual, can firmly execute the coaching team tactics, and still have a certain level of ability to control the crisis situation on the field-
This is an important reason why the Rams can strongly beat the Indianapolis Colts; it is also the reason why Jeff Fisher dared to boldly shift the entire offensive focus to the passing offense, despite Clemens ’s pass. The accuracy of the ball is not good, but at least he can faithfully perform the coaching tactics, which creates a possibility for Fisher to win.
After entering the game, the strong pressure of the San Francisco 49ers on the front line flashed again, forcing Clemens to always dance in the protective pocket, just like standing on a wire rope and trying to pass. To complete the pass, which also creates more trouble for Clemens.
In the whole game, Clemens firmly implemented the short pass tactics, but even so, his pass success rate is still only a poor 51.4%, barely more than half.
In other words, the 49ers' defensive front has created conditions for second-line defense through their own pressure, but ... defensive second-line has repeatedly suffered card position errors and missed grapples.
With the pass defense dominating, the defensive second line had at least three missed tackles, and all three of these errors had evolved into the St. Louis Rams ’third gear conversion success; worse, the card position was missed. The number of yards lost is also an amazing number-
For example, this is a five-yard short pass, if the grapple is successful, then it is to advance five yards; but the result is that because of his card position error, the five yards have become eight yards, even more, and even direct Run to the end zone.
Don't underestimate that the number of lost yards for each card error seems to be small, that is, two yards and three yards, but the accumulation of less and more, the advantage of the defensive group is gradually eroded.
As a result, facing the San Francisco Rams 'passing offense in the lower reaches of the league, and facing the quarterback of this level of Clemens, the San Francisco 49ers' defensive second line fully released 198 yards of passing offense yards. The performance is really reassuring.
Of course, from a positive perspective, neither the defensive front line nor the defensive second line made stupidity at the critical moment. The fact is just the opposite. At the critical moment, we can always be energized and the crisis can be extinguished in time, so as to avoid the team from getting worse. situation.
Judging from the score alone, the defensive group only allowed the opponent to score 16 points, one free kick in each of the first three quarters, and the last quarter of the match was a touchdown in the final stage after the time-out suspension. This data is not enough. " "It's bad"; but in the whole game, the defensive group allowed the opponent to get 21 first attacks, which is more than double the last game against the Washington Redskins, which can be seen.
However, this is not a bad thing. To be more precise, this is a good thing, because the problem can only be solved if it is found, otherwise it may be too late to wait until the playoffs are exposed. At least, in the absence of a major general, Vick Fangio still built a San Francisco 49ers defense line, and gradually strengthened in the continuous test, this is a positive start.
When the state of the defensive group began to fluctuate, the offensive group came forward and took over the initiative of the game.
From the fake fax run of the previous game to the true pass of the fake run of this game, Lu Ke has played the most of the changes in the West Coast offensive system to the extreme.
In the game, Lu Ke repeatedly used Frank Goyle and Marcus Lynch to run counterfeit and deceive the attention of the opponent's defensive front with false running, and then opened the situation with a screen short pass or a quick short pass. In this game, Logan Newman and Michael Crabtree, both returning to the starting lineup, became the focus of attention-
The two catchers have repeatedly used their physical advantages to complete a standing pile in the short pass area, and then waited for an opportunity to complete a forcible breakthrough.
If only that is the case, it is a matter of time before the tactics are seen and suppressed by the opponent.
Lu Ke ’s cleverness still lies in defensive reading and tactical layout. When Logan or Crabtree attracted enough defensive power, he immediately passed the football to An Kuang Bolding or Garrett unexpectedly. -Sellek, not focusing on the number of yards but focusing on the pass success rate, only needs two to three successful catches, defensive players have to start distracting attention to the running route of Bolding and Salek, Then ... Lu Ke will once again give full play to the characteristics of the West Coast offensive system, dazzling the entire running route.
The St. Louis Rams defensive team finally realized that the starting list was too tired-after Crabtree entered the starting lineup, he replaced Ted Jean, who was in good shape, instead of An Kuang Bol, who was more similar in size, style, and type. Ding, because the San Francisco 49ers did not intend to use Jean's speed, short pass and mid pass are still the focus of the entire tactic.
All four catchers have the ability to stand and catch in the short pass area, and the advantage of counterpoint also allows them to create more opportunities for advancement.
When the visiting team's defensive team thought that they had figured out the opponent's strategy, Lu Ke also completed the trial and exploration. After entering the second quarter, he boldly adopted two reading options, and both of them held the ball on his own. The way of rushing to complete the first attack further broke the routine of the opponent's defensive group.
Such an unexpected game style completely disrupted the layout of the St. Louis Rams defensive group-
Every team in the league knows clearly: Lu Ke does dare to run with the ball in the game, he will not hesitate and hesitate when the opportunity appears; but in the end, Lu Ke is a traditional pocket quarterback, all technical and tactical The combination is all around the pass.
Although Lu Ke tried three reading option attacks against the Washington Redskins last week, but the "three times" compared with the previous one hundred and one thousand tactical combinations, the samples are really too few, even insignificant, reference The value is really not high, the team can not always guard against the illusory "reading option of the possibility of offense".
So, Lu Ke succeeded again easily.
After breaking the fixed routine, Lu Ke's offensive methods became rich and diverse again.
To put it simply, in the absence of the suddenness of a long pass outbreak, Lu Ke eats opponents raw with near-end forwards and large wide receivers, and executes advancing missions with difficulty-is this a bit familiar?
In the last game, Lu Ke used the ground attack to open the situation, and the running backs were formed to win the game. In this game, Lu Ke used the short pass attack to open the situation. The near end and the large wide receiver became the protagonists. Both methods weaken the offensive burden of the quarterback, more use of teammates to share the offensive risk, and then open up the situation.
After suffering from injuries, Lu Ke's tactical style is slowly being adjusted, groping for different ways of playing. This is not an easy task, but it must be started.
