"Unfortunately, it's longer, a little longer!" Kirk sighed as he watched the football slide past Ted Jean's fingertips and fall to the ground. "We are always amazed. Lu Ke showed a different sophistication from a rookie player. It was only his first season, but he performed like a ten-year veteran. He was mature, calm, and steady, and his shots were decisive and accurate at critical moments. But this pass can still be seen. The lack of experience reminds us that he is still a rookie."
On the court, the referee was judging whether there was any suspicion of foul play in the previous defense, while in the studio, Kirk and Teddy were watching the replay and explaining the entire tactical arrangement in detail.
"Third gear and seven yards, Lu Ke chose to move laterally, pass the ball quickly, and connected with the 12-yard pass. He found Ted Ginn, who was good at speed, hoping to complete the offense with a fast-paced throw and catch.
In fact, both Michael Crabtree and Marcus Lynch had greater chances of opening the ball; but before taking action, Lu Ke's observation was a little sloppy. It should be that before passing the ball, he had already determined the pass in his heart. Targeting the ball, shortening the release time, and also shortening the defensive player's reaction time, this is a common mistake among all rookie quarterbacks. "
On the screen, the video of Lu Ke pulling horizontally and making quick moves was repeatedly played, and combined with Kirk's explanation, it became more vivid.
"We can't be too harsh. In the past few games, Lu Ke rarely showed inertial thinking in this regard, only occasionally. This is extremely rare for rookies, who need more game experience." Teddy gave a different point of view, "To be honest, Lu Ke's growth rate has exceeded my imagination."
Kirk nodded in affirmation and chuckled, "Please forgive my pursuit of perfection."
He can definitely be regarded as Lu Ke's biggest supporter, and he also hopes that this undrafted rookie quarterback can make a breakthrough. In the NFL, the breathing space left for rookies is too small.
Later, Kirk added again, "In addition, at the moment when the pass is released, Lu Ke's strength and line selection are still too radical. First, his accuracy in short and medium passes is not stable enough; secondly, Pass selection at critical moments tends to be more risky. It's a double-edged sword, with great rewards for success but costly failure."
"Now we can't be sure what will happen if this pass is not completed. But for rookie players, this is the tuition fee that must be paid in the growth process." Teddy agreed with Kirk's view. In today's game , Lu Ke was forced to take risks at critical moments at least three times. He succeeded once and failed twice. The instability of rookie players was inevitably exposed.
Of course, even veterans may have periods of instability. This is competitive sports, no one can sustain high energy.
On the court, after a dispute, Ted Ginn failed to get a yellow flag, and the referee believed that Tom Nelson's defense was okay. So, this is an incomplete pass, seven yards on third down. The San Francisco 49ers failed to complete it and automatically went to fourth down.
At this time, although the San Francisco 49ers offensive team has pushed past half-court, if they want to complete the free kick, they still need to advance at least about 12 to 15 yards, plus the large number of yards on the fourth gear and seven yards, and take the risk to try it's meaningless. So, Jim Hubble withdrew the offensive team and sent in the special teams team to complete the punt.
This was the second time in today's game that I missed a free kick. It was so close, but it was never completed.
Lu Ke stood there and carefully thought about all the tactical routes of the attack just now. He waved his fist sadly, then put all distracting thoughts behind his mind and greeted his teammates to leave the court. He did not sit down immediately. , but stood together with offensive coach Craig Roman and quarterback coach Kip Kleist, discussing the tactical arrangements just now, the opponent's defensive formation, and what he saw and heard on the court. mutual confirmation.
For a quarterback, he has to stay calm and objective.
This is not easy, especially when the success falls short at the last moment. Anger and annoyance are unavoidable, and the complicated thoughts in his mind are always going on. It is not something that can be cut off just by cutting them off. His whole person seems a little irritable; but he It must be done. If emotions are allowed to disrupt the brain, the quarterback's subsequent performance will be a complete disaster.
After dedicating himself to tactical analysis, Lu Ke gradually calmed down, analyzed his own mistakes, and also analyzed the opponent's changes. His mind started to work quickly, and the opponent's defensive formation tactics gradually became more three-dimensional.
"Wait, give me some time." The amount of information was too big and complicated, and it was all crammed into his head. Lu Ke needed to take a moment, and after gradually clarifying it, he spoke out his thoughts and asked the coach for confirmation - —Pretending to understand something you don’t understand is an absolute taboo for a quarterback. "So, what you mean is..."
"Ho! Ho ho!"
Suddenly, cheers erupted in the stadium, like a tidal wave, interrupting Lu Ke's conversation with the two coaches. They all raised their heads, and then saw the Philadelphia Eagles celebrating on the stadium. figure.
Another touchdown?
Lu Ke looked at the court carefully and then breathed a sigh of relief. Not a touchdown, but a free kick. Although Lu Ke didn't know when the special team came on the field, he was so involved in the conversation just now that he didn't notice the passage of time and the changes around him; but fortunately, it was just a free kick, not a touchdown.
Now the score has reached "27:21", which is still within the range of a touchdown; but if it is a touchdown, it is "31:21". It will take at least two waves of offense to catch up. For San Francisco 49 Not good news for people.
Despite this, Michael Vick still relied on his strong ability to push the 49ers to the edge of the cliff after completing the free kick, with his life hanging by a thread and in danger.
Raising his chin, Lu Ke looked at the electronic display board erected high above the court. It clearly showed that there were two minutes and nine seconds left in the fourth quarter.
Next, the Philadelphia Eagles are responsible for the kickoff and the San Francisco 49ers are responsible for the kickoff return to determine the starting position of the offense. After the return attack ends, the game will then enter the official timeout, which means that Lu Ke will lead the offensive team into battle again after the timeout ends.
There are still two minutes and 120 seconds of game time left for the San Francisco 49ers offense.
Let me sigh again, the score is "27:21", not "31:21", otherwise, the crisis will be more urgent, and it can even be said to be slim; but even so, the game is still tight to the extreme, and there is no room for failure.
Before playing again, Lu Ke stood on the sidelines and gathered all his teammates on the offensive team together. He did not wear a helmet, but looked at everyone face to face, "We have only one goal, touchdown! No matter it is the first Gear or fourth gear, this is our only choice! I always firmly believe that we can win this game! Yes, I believe, we can! So, I need everyone to focus, forget the time, forget The score, forget all distractions, push forward, that’s our only goal!”
"I'm ready for the touchdown. Who is with me?" Lu Ke raised his right hand high, clenched it into a fist, and pointed it to the center like a torch. His scorching eyes held an unshakable and powerful belief. , and then Lu Ke saw his teammates slowly raising their clenched fists one after another, and they all collided together, and the logs gathered into a fire!
Lu Ke nodded heavily, "Very good, tell all the fans and viewers that we are!"
"warrior!"
"we are!"
"warrior!"
Along with the roar, all the players' fists hit hard, hitting the flesh. The thumping sound burst out all the passion in the chest, full of pride, and finally Lu Ke roared crazily, "Ah. !" The ferocious face and fierce shouting awakened the enthusiasm of every player, and everyone roared heartily.
"Ah! Ah!" That was the beast in the body awakening, that was the passion in the soul surging. At this moment, the San Francisco 49ers' offensive team truly huddled together!
The air was so tight and suffocating that it seemed that even the heartbeat had completely stopped in "Joe's Bar"; however, when the live broadcast camera was aimed at the offensive team on the sidelines, all the fans began to shout, "Bann Bambi! Go! Bambi!"
Jeff Locke jumped up high and waved his fist vigorously, "Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!" Once again recreated the grand scene of the Rose Bowl night. In a desperate situation, all hope was lost. On the shoulders of Lu Ke, they successfully reversed the Wisconsin Badgers and the Dallas Cowboys. Now, can they successfully reverse the Philadelphia Eagles?
Danny and Nate understood Jeff's intention at the first moment, and shouted together. The uniform shouts gradually formed a powerful momentum, which made people's blood boil.
Chris and Jonathan exchanged glances, and all the previous estrangements and knots disappeared in an instant. Then both of them smiled and joined the shouting, "Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!" Finally, the whole The bar melted into one, shouting in collective unison.
They know that this is San Francisco, and the TV screen is the other end of the North American continent, and their shouts cannot be transmitted at all; but they don't care, everyone is shouting the same name side by side, "Bambi!" , even their heartbeats beat the same beat.
"Ahhh!" The chorus of shouts turned into cheers when Lu Ke led the offensive team on the field. Everyone in the bar raised their hands high and applauded, even Anthony Tinoso was no exception. , cheer for the San Francisco 49ers together.
This is the San Francisco 49ers' last chance. Without a touchdown, the game is over; with a touchdown, the game is reversed, clean and simple, simple and clear!
On the kickoff return just now, the San Francisco 49ers successfully ran back nine yards, so the starting position of the offensive team's offense was at their own 29-yard line. Target: The opponent's end zone!
