Chapter 441: Top [-] Snatches?
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Lawrence Taylor had just come out of a bar and was about to get into the car when he was stopped by two white policemen.
"I'm Lawrence Taylor, what do you two guys want to do?" He said very dissatisfied.
The two policemen smiled and looked at each other, and one of them said coldly: "Mr. Taylor, I now suspect that you are hiding *independence......"
"nonsense!"
Lawrence Taylor said furiously.
He suddenly stepped forward and pushed away the policeman in front of him, wanting to get in the car and leave, but at this moment another policeman moved his hand and aimed a pistol at him, and he froze in place, the hairs all over his body standing on end.
"Don't move, Mr. Taylor, it's good for you." The policeman grinned.
"You attacked me just now." A sneer appeared on the face of the policeman who was pushed away by Taylor.
"..."
Lawrence Taylor's whole body was cold, and his hands and feet began to tingle.
Soon, news spread in New York that the famous retired NFL legend, Hall of Famer, and former New York Giants superstar Lawrence Taylor was arrested on the street on charges of Tibetan independence and assaulting the police.
"Feilong, it is true that more than [-] grams of Malaysia and [-] grams of drugs were found in his car. We have not wronged him. In addition, the blood test shows that he has smoked drugs. In addition to assaulting the police, it is enough for us to send He's in. Once you get him in, it's not easy to get out."
Then Zhao Dong received information from the lawyer team, which made him very satisfied.
But he didn't plan to kill Lawrence Taylor. After all, there was no life-and-death vengeance, so he told the lawyers that it would be enough to let Taylor in for a few years, and he would not be ignored in the future.
The arrest of Lawrence Taylor did not cause a sensation in New York, because this was not the first time he was arrested for drugs. He had been arrested for this many times before he retired, and this time there was only one more. The charge of assaulting the police is not surprising.
In the next month, Zhao Dong's [-]-yard return is still the most talked-about hot spot after the start of the new NFL season.
After all, a return attack like this may not happen once in the entire league after a season.
Moreover, in this return, three players were seriously injured, and two of them were reimbursed for their careers, which gave this [-]-yard return a kind of legend.
NFL officials have also repeatedly played the video of this counterattack on the official website, and the number of views and downloads reached hundreds of millions of times within a month.
Just this return attack made Zhao Dong famous in the NFL.
This time it is not because of his influence in the basketball world, nor because of his influence among super sports stars all over the world, but because of the strength of football.
The Colts' main quarterback, future Hall of Famer, and one of the greatest quarterbacks in league history, Peyton Manning talked about Zhao Dong's return in an interview with the media.
He looked shocked and said: "What I want to say is that I underestimated him before, I actually didn't think he would be successful in the NFL, but now I take my words back.
What I want to say now is that he is 205 centimeters tall and weighs 115 kilograms. With such a physique, how can he be so fast?
Do you think I haven't seen his NBA games?I have seen it, but the basketball court is too small, and his speed has never been truly reflected. Only a stadium like ours can allow him to show his long-distance sprint speed.
Yes, he has a physique like that, but he shows the sprint speed of a top wide receiver.
But this is not the scariest thing. What surprised me that night was his impact. His physical mass combined with his explosive power allowed him to form a terrible and devastating impact. This is why there are three players The reason for the serious injury under his collision was that they were hit by a truck traveling at high speed.
What he is famous for in the NBA is his impact. He is known as the star with the most impact in NBA history, but I didn't think it before, and of course I don't think it now.
Yes, haha, there are too many people with top explosive talents like him in the NFL, it is not surprising, yes, even if I have seen his talent, it is still not surprising.
The speed of a top wide receiver, his physique is taller than that of a linebacker, and his impact is almost comparable to that of an ordinary star-level forward player. This is where his talent lies.
With talent like that, I'd say as long as he stays healthy, he's 26, right?Yes, as long as he stays healthy, I think he has a chance to succeed in the NFL. "
This day Zhao Dong went to the team's training base and was stopped outside the gate.
"Flying Dragon, now the media generally believe that your nickname is no longer suitable for the NFL. Do you think it needs to be changed?" A reporter asked.
"It's okay for now. My NFL career has just started, let's talk about it later." Zhao Dong laughed.
Maureen Phillips was in the office of the training base. He stood by the window, looked at Zhao Dong who was practicing passing in the training match, and turned his head to the head coach Edwards who came to talk to him and said, "Herman, do you think there is something wrong with Feilong?" Potential to be a quarterback?"
Edwards walked to Philip's side, looked at Zhao Dong in the distance, and thoughtfully said: "No matter where he is, he has absolute height, if he plays quarterback, he will have the best vision.
The Peyton Manning of the Colts is 196 centimeters tall, which allows him to have a good vision, and the dragon is 9 centimeters taller than him.
Feilong also has a pair of very powerful long arms and a pair of big hands, which are the physical conditions for him to become an excellent quarterback.
At the same time, his tactical literacy ability is also very good, and his ability to read defensively is not bad now.
These are his strengths, but he also has weaknesses. His passing is not good enough, especially the middle pass and long pass, especially the long pass, which is too bad. "
Having said that, he turned to look at Philip and said, "Molin, the quarterback is the soul of the team. We need to choose more carefully. Feilong is not suitable yet."
Nodding his head, Philip asked: "So what is your specific arrangement for his position? Let him work part-time?"
Edwards said: "Although we won the division championship last season, Venis was crippled by the Flying Dragons, and two main players were lost during the offseason. It's going to be difficult to match what we did last season, I've already said that."
"Yes, but we should try our best." Philip reminded with a frown.
"Of course I know that. I need more observations about Flying Dragon. He has not matured yet. He needs to improve his skills. As for the position, he is indeed like in the NBA. His skills are very comprehensive, and his physical condition can also support him. Playing multiple positions, I will try to let him work part-time, and he also likes to contribute more energy to the team." Edwards said.
Although Zhao Dong didn't want to change his nickname, the media didn't go his way, and fans also came to join in the fun and gave him many new nicknames.
For example, the New York Sports News added a title in front of his old nickname, called the brutal flying dragon.
The New York Times directly referred to Zhao Dong as a tyrannosaur.
The reason why these media call it cruel or violent is because Zhao Dong caused serious injuries to three players in a row during that 60-yard touchdown return. The lung was pierced, and the function of the right lung was lost by [-]%, and it has been determined to retire.
In addition to the brutal Flying Dragon and Tyrannosaurus, there are other nicknames, Harvester, Iron Rhino, etc., all derived from the performance of that [-]-yard return.
In the next three weeks, the Jets played three more preseason games. Zhao Dong had to play several positions in each game, and his performance was a bit of a struggle.
Because his performance in the first game was too brilliant, in the next three games, he was valued by his opponents when he was on the court. Several teams were afraid of repeating the mistakes of the Lions, so they sent most of their main players. Too little, and his skills are really mediocre. Although his physical fitness is top-notch, he also suffered a lot, which affected his performance.
Of course, there are also highlights.
For example, in three games, he completed eight tackles and one sack against the quarterback at the defensive linebacker position, showing good defensive strength.
Now Edwards is still using him as a part-time job.
One is because of his comprehensive skills, and the other is because of his excellent physical fitness.
But still give him a main position, that is, the first position, that is, the best performing linebacker.
It was even decided to give him a position as the main linebacker. Of course, it was only for the start of the season. If Zhao Dong did not perform well, he could only play as a substitute.
The main linebacker, and then the running back of the backup offensive group, this is the current position of the coaching staff before the start of the regular season.
After four preseason games, the media made an objective evaluation of his strength.
The NFL editor-in-chief of the New York Athletic and noted NFL commentator Binger Nestor said in his column:
"Although Feilong has not proved his strength in the regular season, a [-]-yard return has initially proved his strength, and his performance in the subsequent three preseason games has also proved his potential.
At the age of 26, he can still guarantee excellent physical condition and no injuries, so I think he should perform better in the next two seasons.Of course, this requires him to continue to maintain good physical condition.
But what I want to say is that he has taken his first step in the NFL well, and he has the strength to stay. "
Nestor's evaluation was recognized by most of the media and fans. Only a small number of racially discriminatory fans and media did not approve of Zhao Dong's performance and still stubbornly believed that he would not succeed in the NFL.
Zhao Dong also believes that Nestor's evaluation of him is pertinent. He is still in the adaptation period, and his skills still need to be trained. He still has a long way to go. The entire rookie season is his growth period.
Of course, he also thinks that he only needs this season, and with systematic help, his growth will definitely be very fast.
The time comes to September, Sunday the 9th, will be the NFL's new season opener.
The first regular season game of the New York Jets is on Monday, the 6th, the night game, which is broadcast live across the United States. The opponent is the rival Miami Dolphins in the same district.
The Jets are a team in the Eastern Conference of the American League (AFC). There are a total of four teams in the same district. The other three are the Miami Dolphins, the Buffalo Bills and the New England Patriots.
The competition in the same district is the biggest, so the teams in the same district are sworn enemies.
Each NFL team has a total of 16 regular season games in a single season, with a total of 17 weeks in the regular season, with one week off in rotation.
In these 16 regular season games, the Jets will play home and away games with three teams in the same district, a total of 6 games.
Secondly, they will play one game each with four teams from one of the other three divisions of the same federation, two hosts and two away, in a three-year cycle, a total of 4 games.
Then play one game with each of the four teams in the same division of the opponent (National League), two home and two away, four-year cycle (four seasons in rotation), a total of 4 games.
In the end, the Jets have to play a game with the teams that have the same division ranking in the same federation (American League) in the previous year and have not played against the division this season (such as the second vs. the second, and the third vs. the third), 1 home and 1 guest, these are two games.
The NFL's playoffs are different from the NBA's. The two federations each have 6 playoff spots, and each federation's four division champions (the division champion with the best record in the division) automatically qualify for the playoffs.
Just this one, let the four teams in each division become sworn enemies. Every game is a battle of life and death, and they must do their best.
After dinner on the 4th, Zhao Dong sat for a while, planning to take his wife and a few children for a stroll in the garden, when the system suddenly jumped out and issued more than one task.
Excited in his heart, he hadn't had a mission for three years, so he quickly opened the mission content.
NFL season mission: Help the team win the American League East Championship as the main force.
Task rewards: 1. One vote for talents and skills; 2. Five skill points; 3. If the task is overfulfilled, the reward will increase randomly.
"Last season, he was the champion of the Eastern District, but I heard that this season's strength has declined, and it seems a bit difficult." He made a calculation in his heart, and felt that there was still a chance.
But the NFL is no better than the NBA. This sport is a real team action. Like football, it emphasizes teamwork. One person is not strong enough, and each position cannot be weak. If you want to win, you have to look at the overall strength. If you want to win the Eastern Conference championship That's even more difficult. If he wants to complete this task, he just has a chance.
Then he opened the second mission.
Enemy sniper mission in the same district: snipe the Miami Dolphins.
Task requirements: 1. Complete the first tackle; 2. Complete the first sack; 3. Complete the first impact interception; 4. Complete the first run interception; 5. Complete the first pass interception; 6. Complete the first catch; 7. Complete the first touchdown; 8. Complete the first return (advance at least 20 yards and complete the touchdown triple reward); 9. Help the team beat the opponent.
"Nine requirements?"
Zhao Dong was a little tongue-tied, and he continued to look down.
Task Reward: Every time a task requirement is completed, a skill point will be rewarded.
"That's good. It's quite impossible to complete everything without asking."
Next, he began to look at the third task, which was also the last task of the day.
Sack list task: Ask the host to reach the top ten in the NFL league sack list this season.
Mission rewards: No.10, rewards three skill points, No.9 rewards four skill points, and so on, if you rank first in the sack list, you will be rewarded with a talent and skill lottery draw once, if you can beat the sacks in a single season Records, reward talents and skills are drawn twice (rewards do not overlap).
"Top ten on the sack list?"
Zhao Dong scratched his head, he knew that the current record for sacks in a single season in NFL history is 22.5
This record was set by Michael Strahan, the legendary star of the New York Giants on the opposite side. He has an impression of this guy because he is a wife abuser who beats and scolds his wife.
In fact, many players in the NFL have serious domestic violence because they have been engaged in violent sports for a long time. They believe that violence is the best way to solve the problem, and Michael Strahan is the same.
According to this record, as long as one sack is completed in a single game, it is entirely possible to enter the top ten positions in the sack list.
It looks easy, it only takes one time, but it is actually not easy, otherwise this record would have been broken long ago.
The so-called sack is not a grapple.
A sack refers to a quarterback who has successfully tackled a position behind the line of scrimmage and has not yet passed the ball, or holds a player.
To complete the sack on the quarterback, you have to break through the chaotic line of five offensive linemen and three or four defensive linemen on your side, before the quarterback passes the ball. The difficulty of sacking is very high.
A bad one could also be a foul because the defense can't charge the quarterback who has clearly passed the ball.
So, if you contribute a sack every game, needless to say, the superstar is you, and you can't run away.
As for why half a sack occurred, it was because two sacks, two ghosts knocked on the door, and the teammates split half a time.
