Chapter 235: Gloating
“Everyone knows that Andy Reid is a typical passing attack coach. His games are often designed around the passing attack, while the ground attack is for the passing attack. Assistance in establishing advantage in ball attack.”
"Even in the Jamal Charles era, that strategy hasn't changed."
"but."
"Due to his excellent ground attack performance in the last game, Reid rarely changed his strategy and focused on ground attack, trying to avoid the Philadelphia Eagles' excellent pass defense, but ended up encountering Peterson's sniper."
"Throughout the first half, the Kansas Chiefs chose to attack on the ground nineteen times, but the offensive efficiency was not high, and they only advanced a total of seventy-three yards."
"This is the key."
Earned and frothing at the mouth, Bart finally found a chance to shine.
Opposite me, Lawson hesitated: Sir, was your math taught by your physical education teacher?
Eighteen passes and nineteen runs are called pass-run balance in football games. This is the offensive state that the head coaches hope to pursue.
Moreover, he ran the ball nineteen times and advanced 73 yards, averaging 3.84 yards per advance. Such data is indeed average, but it is far from bad.
In fact, what was really bad about the Kansas Chiefs in the first half was the handling of details.
A special teams team missed a 51-yard free kick, and running back Hunter dropped the ball, causing the ball to change. This led to the Kansas Chiefs' passing and running balance taking advantage of the situation but never widening the gap in the game.
However, it fell into Bart's mouth and evolved into the sole responsibility of the running back group?
This rhythm brings...
However, after a slight hesitation, Lawson did not interrupt Bart after all.
It's not because it's not good, but because the Philadelphia Eagles' ground defense really performed well, and Levi and Hunter's ground advancement can only be regarded as passing.
Here, you need to understand a concept:
Bombing Legion.
From the 2012 season to the 2015 season, the Seattle Seahawks defensive team was known as the "Legion of Boom", which was frightening.
Among them, the 2013 Super Bowl decisive battle was the pinnacle battle of the Legion, facing the Denver Broncos offense led by regular season MVP Manning.
That season, Manning's no-huddle offense reached its peak, breaking a series of historical offensive records, and was hailed as the best offensive team in history. However, the Legion suppressed Manning in the entire game, leaving the Denver Broncos offensive team unable to find anyone. North, and finally reached the top with a score of "43:8".
The Legion of Boom features big cornerbacks and strong safeties.
Both zone defense and individual matchups have top capabilities. Even if the offensive team uses a running back or tight end to mismatch the cornerback, the cornerback will not be left behind. He is dominant in the short passing area with an absolutely tough attitude; at the same time, he is safe. The guard is the core key. The entire activity space covers short, medium and long passes. Sufficient mobility allows the safety guard to move around based on his own review and judgment, relying on his personal ability to fill all gaps.
In short, the Legion of Detonation emphasizes individual soldier abilities as well as teamwork.
Can be met but not sought.
Even the Seattle Seahawks themselves were never able to replicate the glory of the Bombing Legion. Other teams have tried to imitate this model, but it was still too difficult after all.
Of course, neither can the Philadelphia Eagles in front of me.
But at least in the first half, the Philadelphia Eagles in Peterson's hands did show some of the style that exploded the Legion at the tactical level and suppressed the Kansas Chiefs.
Therefore, although Bart's comments are biased, they are not nonsense.
In Lawson's view, Reid's pursuit of a balance between passing and running is because he feels the pressure of the Philadelphia Eagles from all directions and needs to spread the pressure; but so far, Reid does not have a clear idea and has not found an effective way. , so that the offense in the first half was slightly chaotic.
Lawson is different from Bart. He is truly objective and unbiased. Just because he is optimistic about Levi does not mean that he will brag without thinking. That would seem too stupid.
So Lawson allowed Bart to continue to play freely.
Bart was beaming and talking, and couldn't stop. “In the first half, the Philadelphia Eagles’ defensive front performed at a playoff level, with defensive end Brandon Graham and defensive end Derek- Derek Barnett, defensive tackle Fletcher Cox all performed well."
"Focused. Tough. Positive."
"Obviously, the Philadelphia Eagles carefully studied the game tape of the Kansas City Chiefs and the New England Patriots, and he knew that the Chiefs' running back group needed room to accelerate and break more from the sides than from the middle."
"So, the Philadelphia Eagles made two adjustments."
"First, they gave up rushing the quarterback and gave Smith time to pass the ball, but the linebackers positioned themselves early and used the linebackers' mobility to cover the short passing area."
"Second, they used defensive line marking to intercept the running back at the line of scrimmage and immediately cut off the Kansas Chiefs' ground run."
"Third, like the Legion, use cornerbacks to help defend running backs and tight ends. Rasul Douglas and Jalen Mills both weigh 200 pounds (91 kilograms). ), about 6 feet (183 cm) tall, an excellent big cornerback.”
"Pederson's tactical layout on the front line relied on the outstanding performance of the players to its fullest, which prevented the Kansas Chiefs' offense from being able to produce explosive power. The running back team was almost invisible in the first half."
"Without adequate ground support, Smith was unable to stand alone. After just one game, the Kansas Chiefs' offense was brought back to its original form."
After enduring it and enduring it, Bart tried his best but still couldn't control himself.
"I've already said -"
"Levi's quality still needs time to be tested."
The words blurted out, and the smile on the corner of Bart's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
"So far in this game, Levi has been completely lost in the Philadelphia Eagles' steel meat grinder. He has no performance worth mentioning yet and has returned to mediocrity."
"For rookies, we should take care of them, and we should give them time to grow..."
Bah bah bah.
That look of heartache and sincere words seemed to be a sincere consideration for Li Wei, and the heart of protecting Li Wei could be seen day by day.
If the corners of the mouth hadn't raised and the head hadn't shaken, there might still be a little bit of persuasion, but looking at the current appearance, the gloating expression can hardly be concealed, and the only thing left to celebrate is a glass of beer and a plate of cheese sticks——
What about giving rookies some room to grow?
finally!
Bart finished speaking. If any audience had just turned on the TV at this time and heard these words, they would definitely think that the Kansas Chiefs were behind by a big score. But after seeing the score, they couldn't help but become confused in the wind——
Wait, isn't it the Kansas Chiefs who are leading the score now?
Although it is only a three-point lead, it is still a lead! Why is the atmosphere so solemn, one by two as if the Kansas City Chiefs are trailing by three touchdowns?
The whole studio has a funeral-like atmosphere, which makes people feel helpless to complain.
Maybe, it's unfair to say this. At least, Bart seemed to be in a happy mood, just like a distant relative who started to go crazy after drinking at the funeral. He had never seen him and didn't know his name, but after two glasses of whiskey, he started to talk nonsense. Reminiscing about the past with eloquence.
Little did he know that he was playing the role of the Joker.
But Bart doesn’t care—
Anyway, as long as he is happy.
