In the eighth week of the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers' home game against the Cleveland Browns ended with the final score being "48:7".
After the third quarter, the game entered garbage time.
Although in the fourth quarter of the game, the Cleveland Browns used a quick-acting Jiuxin Pill to briefly regain their energy. Taking advantage of the gap when the opponent's defensive team was distracted, they continued to advance through a combination of passing and running, and successfully scored a touchdown. Finally, they succeeded. The earth completed the feat of breaking the egg and seemed to reawaken the dawn.
But then, Lu Ke, who appeared again, killed all suspense. He cooperated with a series of precise short passes, and finally found Logan Newman in the combination zone of mid pass and long pass with a long pass, and relied on the latter's A long run led to a 41-yard touchdown that completely killed the game.
Subsequently, after the Cleveland Browns offensive team struck out again, the San Francisco 49ers offensive team, which gradually relaxed its nerves, began to control the game time and controlled the game with short passes and running the ball. However, the frustrated Browns defensive team could not cheer up at all. , in a daze, Lu Ke actually led the team into the free kick area again.
If the defensive team hadn't woken up at the last moment and blocked Lu Ke's 23-yard pass to Ted Ginn, then Lu Ke would have scored another touchdown pass. However, after being eliminated in the third gear, the San Francisco 49ers still relied on the stable performance of David Akins to score a free kick and once again harvested three points.
After that, the score on the field could not change.
The whole game is over.
Lu Ke, who was full of firepower and devastating, was undoubtedly the biggest highlight of the entire game. He completely dominated this regular season, making 29 of 36 passes, 412 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions!
From a pure data point of view, Lu Ke not only contributed an astonishing passing success rate, as high as 80.5%; he also completed his first career passing game of 400 yards.
More importantly, the key to chemical reaction was found in the balance between passing and running. The whole team blossomed in an all-round way. Logan Newman completed three touchdown receptions and Ted Ginn contributed one touchdown reception. In addition, Marcus Lynch also achieved two running touchdowns; in addition, Michael Crabtree, Vernon Davis and Kyle Williams all had excellent receiving performances.
It is worth mentioning that rookie running back Kendall Hunter ran for 53 yards in this game. As a rotating running back, he gradually found his own position in the offensive group and began to play a role. . This plays a vital role in enriching the team's offensive methods.
In the end, the quarterback rating was 153.9 and the PFF rating was 1.9. Both ratings set new career highs for Lu Ke!
Especially the quarterback rating, the full score is 158.3, and Lu Ke's rating in this game is 153.9. It seems that completing a "perfect game" is not that far away. Judging from his performance in the first half of the season alone, as a rookie quarterback, Lu Ke's performance has steadily surpassed that of Ben Roethlisberger and is creating a new history.
In the "Inside the League" program, as Lu Ke's biggest supporter and affirmer, Spencer Larson said, "More important than a victory is that this week's game and the first Compared with one week of games, we can see the growth and progress of Lu Ke. This rookie quarterback is growing up at an alarming rate. This is undoubtedly the biggest discovery of the league this season!"
Defeating the Cleveland Browns, whose strength level has always been ups and downs and has been a relatively weak team, is not worth making a fuss about; but in this game, Lu Ke's excellent state has made people look at him.
After the eighth week of the regular season ended, the league's official selection of the best player once again awarded the National League's best offensive player award to Lu Ke. This is Lu Ke's third time this season after the first and fifth weeks of the regular season. He won such an award for the first time, tying Aaron Rodgers who has won the title three times so far.
There is no doubt that Lu Ke and Rogers are the two most outstanding quarterbacks in the National League this season. By the way, the Green Bay Packers entered the bye week this week, but they still won before the bye week. With seven wins from seven games, they are still the only undefeated team in the league.
Just from the comments after the game, we can feel that with his outstanding performance week after week, Lu Ke defeated the doubts one after another with practical actions. At the same time, in view of what the "rookie quarterback" can achieve Such a brilliant, experienced and wise performance on the field is really eye-opening, and it is accompanied by a flood of praise.
Spencer Larson's praise is just the tip of the iceberg, and Charles Davis' silence and sluggishness are the best footnotes.
To this end, the NFL’s official website and official magazine both published a special report——
"Who is he? He is Lu-Ke!"
In the title, the official used simplified Chinese characters, marked the name "Lu Ke", and attached a pinyin annotation at the back, officially introducing the first starting Chinese-American quarterback in the league to everyone.
In fact, after the end of the first week of the regular season and after the end of the third week of the regular season, waves of heated discussions about Lu Ke emerged one after another. The topic of "who is he" came up in an endless stream, but this time it was different. It's an official report that really gives the debut treatment, and compares it to Kurt Warner's magical 1999 season.
"At that time, countless fans witnessed Cinderella's dream journey. In his second professional season, Kurt Warner led the St. Louis Rams, who had only four wins and 12 losses the previous year, to achieve the 13th victory in the season. With a record of three wins and three losses, and after winning the regular season MVP, he went all the way to the Super Bowl. With a 73-yard touchdown pass to win the game, the Rams' perfect season ended on a gorgeous note. Period, writing a Hollywood-style fairy tale ending.
At that time, after the regular season started with four consecutive victories, everyone was asking the same question, who is this guy?
Now, after witnessing Lu Ke's rise, everyone is asking the same question: Who is he? "
The heated discussion seemed familiar, but because the source of the report was from the league official, it had a magical effect, once again adding a halo to Lu Ke's miracle season.
For ordinary viewers, after the game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Detroit Lions, they really began to get to know Lu Ke, and after this week's devastating victory, they began to get to know Lu Ke further. Undoubtedly, this rookie fourth-year player The shooting guard does have star potential.
For professional audiences and industry insiders, they are even more curious, not to mention whether Lu Ke can replicate Warner's Cinderella-style rise, but more importantly, how long will Lu Ke's strong rise last? When will the peak come? Also, the Philadelphia Eagles' success in defeating the San Francisco 49ers, which team can replicate it in the future?
The contempt, disdain, and ridicule before the start of the regular season have now completely disappeared. People have begun to seriously face Lu Ke's existence and give him high-level treatment.
The same goes for journalists.
The Browns were easily defeated at home. The content of the game was really lackluster. There were not many highlights and highlights worthy of attention. During the post-game news interview session, reporters could not wait to start looking forward to the San Francisco 49ers' opponents next week.
Not because the opponent is so strong, but because the topic is extremely valuable. In the ninth week of the regular season, the San Francisco 40 will go away to challenge the Washington Redskins.
The Washington Redskins, founded in 1932, are a well-known traditional team in the league. The team won the Super Bowl championship three times in 1982, 1987 and 1991, which is undoubtedly the historical inheritance and accumulation of heritage in the entire league. One of the deepest teams.
The most famous and controversial thing about this team is their team name, "Redskin", which refers to the brown skin of the Indians. According to rumors, the reason why they were named Redskin , is to pay tribute to the team's head coach at the time, Indian "Long-Star" Dietz (illiam-"Long-Star"-Dietz).
But with the progress of society and the changes of the times, race, culture, and history have undergone earth-shaking changes. Indians and human rights organizations believe that the term "redskins" comes from the American Civil War and is a discriminatory term used by immigrants towards native Indians. It is offensive and insulting, so they asked the Washington Redskins to modify the team's name. name.
This kind of controversy has always followed the Washington Redskins. Even President Barack-**** was inevitably mentioned on many occasions on different occasions; and, until they change their name, such controversy will continue to follow.
After entering the new millennium, the Washington Redskins also fell into a slump, especially under the pressure of the Philadelphia Eagles, New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys, their rivals in the same district, and their living space gradually shrank; for eleven years, they were only in the It entered the playoffs twice in 2005 and 2007, but the other seasons were always in the doldrums, with ups and downs and no improvement.
There is only one reason why media reporters are so interested in the Washington Redskins: Lu Ke.
As the season continues to advance, people's attention to Lu Ke continues to rise and heat up, with no sign of a decline in sight. Naturally, his failure to be selected in the draft has also become the focus of attention.
Among them, the Washington Redskins were undoubtedly one of the teams closest to Lu Ke.
During the rookie training camp, they seriously considered Lu Ke, and even considered the possibility of selecting Lu Ke as a backup quarterback in the draft, but gave up in the end; and then tried out during the offseason. During the training stage, Lu Ke also went to the Washington Redskins for a tryout, but unfortunately he was not selected again.
Twice before and after - or even three times, the Washington Redskins missed Lu Ke and a quarterback who could rival Aaron Rodgers this season. Now, the Washington Redskins are about to compete with Lu Ke. As the showdown begins, media reporters will naturally not easily let go of such a focus.
