Logan is a sloth.
This is an established fact, not a random slander, even Logan himself admits frankly, even ... proud of it.
Logan is a natural wide receiver. Whether it's softness of the body, explosive muscles, feeling of receiving the ball, running route, he has all the talents needed by a top wide receiver, and he is invincible on the middle school field; However, in the eleventh grade, under the advice and guidance of the coach, Logan began to improve the near end.
why? Before elaborating the reasons, you can understand the difference between wide receiver and near end.
It can be simply understood that the only task of the wide receiver is to catch the ball; while the task of the near end includes the pick-and-roll and the catch. In some teams, even the near end is simply used as an additional front line. Players use and take advantage of their size to complete the offense and interception during offense, providing a better pocket.
Once, in history, the receivers were white, and there were countless Hall of Fame receivers in the annals of history. The San Francisco 49ers in the history of "the catch" in 1982, completed between Joe Montana and Dwight Clark Connected, the latter is a white wide receiver; but after entering the 21st century, the white wide receiver is losing power, or even gradually disappearing.
Due to the
big environment
in the United States, black players have not been respected by professional leagues for a long time, which also gives white receivers a glorious and long period of prosperity; but after the millennium, receivers ’ The position has gradually become the world of black people, especially the advent of the passing era, the physical talent of black people has been completely released, and the living space of white wide receivers is getting smaller and smaller.
At present, among the 32 teams in the league, there are about 200 wide receivers, but there are only more than 20 white wide receivers, with an average of less than one team. Among them, they can reach the top and occupy the main force. Yes, it is even rarer.
It is not complicated to analyze the specific reasons.
First, we need to analyze the natural enemy of the receiver, the cornerback.
Because of the tactical layout, the cornerbacks have no tactical missions, either regional defense or one-on-one defense. They are basically the situation where the enemy moves, so they do not need to run the route, tactical literacy or the like. Cultivation often relies on your physical talents to complete defense.
Generally speaking, the advantage of black players is that they have superior physical talents, but the disadvantage is poor route running, poor professional attitudes, and even insufficient understanding of tactical manuals; while whites are different, their advantage lies in the interpretation and reception of tactical manuals. The softness of the ball feel and the concentration of professional attitude, in comparison, the physical talent is no match for the black.
Naturally, the position of the cornerback became the world of black people. At present, all cornerbacks in the league are black, all blacks, almost no whites training this position, even the college arena is rare.
It is precisely because of the position of the cornerback that the blacks gradually began to gain the upper hand, and forcedly, the coaches and teams must also start to make adjustments. When choosing wide receivers, they had to start thinking more about black players.
Indeed, the professional ethics and tactical abilities of black people are not enough, and the feeling of catching the ball is not good enough; but in terms of vertical attack ability, short-range explosive ability, physical confrontation ability, etc., they have completely exploded the white wide receiver, and the corner guard China can occupy more advantages, which is a more appropriate choice for the team's tactical layout.
Techniques, tactics, these can be trained, the wide receiver's running route, the interpretation of regional defense, the judgment of corner guard fake movements, these can be improved through later training, but the physical talent is inherent. , There is no, there is no change.
Compared to black wide receivers, the biggest advantage of white wide receivers is the feeling of receiving the ball, which is delicate and supple-this corresponds to the passing of the quarterback. In terms of other talents, black wide receivers have an absolute advantage. As a result, in the position of wide receiver in the league, there are more and more blacks and fewer whites.
In the college arena, many talented white receivers, in order to survive in the league, have shifted to other positions, and then formed a vicious circle.
Another fact is that whether it is black or white, the elimination rate of wide receivers in the NFL is too high, and the difficulty of standing out is too high. In every year's draft conference, about 20 wide receivers are selected, and then countless rookies join the training camp. With strong body, good quality and low price, the elimination rate of wide receivers is getting higher and higher.
This is the same reason as the running back position. Relying on physical talent to beat the world is basically a youthful meal. Even the elimination rate of black wide receivers remains high, not to mention white wide receivers?
The most direct proof is that in the San Francisco 49ers, Michael Crabtree, Ted Jean, Kyle Williams and Breren Edwards, all four wide receivers are black.
However, above the position of the near end, blacks and whites are fighting in court. The reason is very simple. Another important work of the near end is to cover. The physical talent is important, but more is the interpretation of the route, the reading of the defense and the card position of the unlocking. These are all improved through training. Quality.
In addition, due to the relatively bulky body of the near end, the running route is still based on short pass. Among the short-pass areas, tactical arrangement is the most important. What is needed is the understanding of the tactical manual and the intuitive ability of the running route. On this point, white players have an advantage.
It is for this reason that in the eleventh grade, Logan began to practice the near end. With his own talent for catching the ball, Logan killed four sides in the short pass area, just like a of killing. At the same time, relying on keen defensive reading and accurate carding ability, the near-end forward's dismantling work is also very popular .
From middle school to college, Logan can be said to be smooth sailing and hardly encountered any challenges. Even strength training and weight gain training can easily reach the target, although for the near end, Logan ’s The weight is still light, but during training and competition, Logan is still killing the Quartet, and naturally he did not pay attention to weight gain.
After entering the league now, Logan gradually realized his own gap. This is not a place where you can run on your talents, because there are too many talented players; as a near end, in addition to the ability to catch the ball, the ability to remove the gear must be further improved, and correspondingly, the weight must be increase.
The side where the near end is located is called the strong side, and the weight advantage is one of the important reasons; many of the near end in the league are called big killers, and they have both the running back propulsion ability and external connection. The hand-catching ability, even if there is no gap, they can rely on their own positioning advantage, strong completion of the ball, and continue to advance.
Especially in the red zone, the near end can often serve as a bridgehead, eating defensive players raw and completing touchdowns; or attracting defensive players and creating gaps for teammates. Ingenious use of the deterrent force of the near end and running back in the red zone is an essential tactic for every quarterback.
This is Logan's deficiency.
In the game against the Philadelphia Eagles, Logan's weakness was further amplified, the rhythm of the entire game has been intermittent, unable to coherent. Not only is it as simple as losing the game, but the connection between Logan and Lu Ke is sometimes lacking. This also led to the attack of the San Francisco 49ers, which can make progress but cannot score.
Struggling and struggling, hesitating and hesitating again, recalling Lu Ke's perseverance and isolation in this game, and Lu Ke's tireless efforts, Logan finally realized that he couldn't be lazy anymore, he needed further Tap your talents and abilities, otherwise in the league, after a season, he may not be able to keep up with the pace of the game.
So, this scene appeared.
Early in the morning at six o'clock, Logan stood in front of Lu Ke, his eyes could hardly be opened, but he was ready to invest in strength training. In addition to Lu Ke, Logan couldn't think of a better training partner—
During college, Logan and Lu Ke once trained together, but Lu Ke is a complete set of training, and Logan only performs a part of the training, and often lazy. Now, Logan needs a new look.
Looking at Logan who gritted his teeth, Lu Ke didn't hide his gloating. With his own talents, the guy who has been lazy for so long, and makes people envious of jealous teeth, has finally begun to enter training. With such a godsend opportunity, how can Lu Ke easily let go.
Logan pulled down his shoulders helplessly, and didn't continue to succeed. "Okay, okay, I know. The mocking can be temporarily stopped, we are now engaged in strength training, how?"
"Are you ready to start gaining weight? Are you sure?" Lu Ke narrowed his smile and talked about the business, "After starting to gain weight, the ability to strike deeper will be weakened, and my long pass goal will be adjusted . "
On the whole, Logan is still more focused on receiving the near end. His coverage area is not only short and mid-range, but also has a lethal strike ability within the range of long passes; of course, if you compare the speed, Logan can't compare with Jean and Williams, but through the tactical running and pulling, Logan is still one of Lu Ke's most trusted long-pass goals in the past four games.
Logan nodded and affirmed, "I have discussed with the coach. In terms of team tactics and career planning, I need to increase the weight slightly and increase the confrontation ability; however, the pace can be slowed down. "My catching ability can't be lost." Logan slapped his fist. "I still like the touchdown. In the future, you still have to pass me a lot."
"No problem, let's start training." Lu Ke beckoned skillfully. "How about, do you want to come with three sets of weight-bearing flat support first? Warm up and warm up?"
"Three groups? Just warming up?" Logan had started wailing before he even started.
