404 Training Manual
"... Then, let's discuss the tactics."
Lu Yiqi did not make any trouble, but just got to the point. The speed of giving up was too fast, which made Woodson a little anti-trafficking.
Woodson looked at Lu Yiqi with suspicious eyes:
He didn't believe it, he didn't believe that Lu Yiqi gave up so simply, and it was just a few words from beginning to end, even with a perfunctory manner. Even if he exposed the provocation method, he did not continue to struggle. He simply turned to tactical discussions. What was going on?
"Did you give up like this? Isn't I worth Lu Yiqi to fight for again? Shouldn't Lu Yiqi give his all? Is his tactical status in the team so simple? Isn't even struggling too much, isn't the speed of giving up too fast? Does he look down on himself?"
Woodson felt a little uncomfortable. Lu Yiqi's negligence and calmness were like a hint of heart, which made him unable to help but want to argue a few more words.
But if he speaks, he is really at a disadvantage and he doesn't want to.
So, a thorn pricked on his chest, which made Woodson feel a little upset, and his originally indifferent face became unstable.
The fact is that Lu Yiqi really started to discuss tactics.
Although Lu Yiqi does not agree with Thompson's tactical interpretation, Thompson is correct about Woodson's view. He is indeed an important member of the defensive team. How to use him and how to use him well is very important for the Green Bay Packers' defense. This is also why Lu Yiqi hopes that Woodson can devote himself to it.
As for whether Woodson is willing, that's another matter.
Lu Yiqi has no way to force Woodson to burn the small universe during the game, but he can flexibly use Woodson from a tactical level.
Lu Yiqi has indeed thought about this carefully.
Woodson is 32 years old this year. If it develops according to normal history, Woodson will retire in 2015, and at that time he is 39 years old.
For any position in rugby, this is old age, and for cornerbacks, it is even more incredible, but Woodson's performance is still the top in the league. He was also shortlisted for the Pro Bowl in the 2015 season, repeatedly breaking doubts with his performance and writing his own myth.
But the increase in age will inevitably lead to changes in physical fitness. The reason why Woodson can continue to contribute to high-level performance is on the one hand because his talent is outstanding, and on the other hand, he adjusted the game style according to his ability and condition.
At the age of 22, Woodson could rely solely on physical fitness to eat his opponents.
At the age of thirty-nine, the same set no longer works, and Woodson had to change his combat methods to complete the positioning and confrontation.
Judging from Woodson's career trajectory, his close-fits-all ability has gradually declined, and although it is not a cliff-like dive, it has gradually weakened year by year.
Correspondingly, his position has also changed. When he was a cornerback, he was more inclined to press his position up and take the initiative by taking the initiative.
At the peak of his physical confrontation ability, he can be on the "defensive" and let the opponent's wide receiver exert force first. Then he can follow up and still be able to complete defense, with conditioned reflex ability completely prevailing; but later, he must put himself in the "offensive", make a judgment based on his own experience, take the initiative to attack, and complete the positioning and impact before the wide receiver exerts force.
Later, even if he took the initiative, it was difficult to completely get stuck in the position, so his position began to retreat significantly, retreating from the cornerback to the safety position, becoming the last level of the entire second-line defense. When the wide receiver collided with the cornerback and linebacker for the first time, he could observe and predict in advance, complete the supplementary defense through rich experience, and improve the defensive efficiency.
In 2005, Woodson tried to adjust to the safety position, but only made a cameo appearance; this season, Woodson also ranked as the safety position many times in the preseason, but after the regular season, Lu Yiqi still mentioned him to the cornerback position.
Later, in 2012, Woodson had completely changed his job as a safety guard.
Woodson’s true talent lies not in physical fitness, but in capturing the layout of the whole audience.
That is, the wide receiver's running route and dismantling cover.
In the eyes of others, the dazzling crisscrossing may not recognize any clues at all, but Woodson is always able to make accurate judgments.
This is a bit similar to Walker's talent, but Walker is more reflected in the judgment and capture of the frontcourt, while Woodson is more reflected in the analysis and recognition of the movement state.
Compared to Walker, Woodson also has a strong and tough physical talent, which has made him great.
Lu Yiqi is also making minor adjustments to the use of two players, Al Harris and Charles Woodson.
Harris is better at pressing and pressing in the frontcourt, occasionally changing positions with the linebacker and waiting for an opportunity to raid, which has achieved miraculous results in the first six games.
Woodson has a relatively weak grasp of opportunities in the frontcourt, but his backcourt coverage is very comprehensive and he also has excellent interception skills. Although interception is not the main skill, positioning, disassembly and impact, this skill is likely to play a role at critical moments.
Compared with the first six games, Lu Yiqi's arrangement for Woodson did not change significantly, but his position had been slightly adjusted, moving slightly from the outside to the inside.
It is not about the difference between moving the position step by step, but the change in the position brought about by the change in the defensive center of gravity. Woodson himself judges and adjusts the steps.
Woodson is the left cornerback. He is responsible for guarding the left area. Most of the time, he is facing the wide receiver on this side. The defensive area has not changed, but the defensive content has been slightly adjusted. It was originally the center and front court on the left, but now it has evolved into the center and back court on the left. The position naturally needs to be changed.
From the perspective of tactical layout, Woodson's first task is still to guard against the counterpart receivers on his side; but from the perspective of tactical changes, Woodson's second task has undergone some changes—
Originally, he focused more on suppressing the frontcourt, marking running backs, tight ends, etc., and cooperating with the Green Bay Packers' frontcourt pressure tactics; now he tends to cover the midfield and backcourt and marking wide receivers. In addition to his own counterpart wide receivers, there are other potential passing targets responsible for dismantling and screening.
For opponents, the interpretation of the position layout will not detect too many changes; but the content of the competition may undergo earth-shaking important changes.
At the same time, Lu Yiqi was able to fully utilize Woodson's abilities.
Moreover, after adjusting Woodson's position, Lu Yiqi must ensure that the defensive team put pressure on the frontcourt, and the corresponding tactical positions of other players also need to be adjusted. It can be seen that Lu Yiqi has indeed conducted in-depth research, which is definitely not as simple as adjusting a position.
