Cam Newton and Lu Ke.
The most interesting and attention-grabbing group of rookie players in the 2011 season is the No. 1 pick Cam and the undrafted pick Lu Ke. It can be said that the two are the favorites and the unknowns. There is a sharp contrast and a huge gap. , from all aspects, they will not have any intersection.
But the fact is that not only did they intersect, but they also continued from the first week of the regular season to the last week.
Just like the "Von Miller VS/JJ Watt" of the defensive team, the performance of these two rookie quarterbacks has always been the focus of the media. The vastly different starting points add to the drama. As long as people When talking about rookie players, Cam and Lu Ke are bound to be the two major topics that cannot be avoided, week after week, this is always the case.
What’s even more unexpected is that when the season came to an end, Lu Ke had the incredible advantage. Except for the single item of passing yards, all other statistics, achievements, honors, etc. were actually taken by the ugly duckling as a dark horse. He reached the highest point, and even left all the rookie players behind, becoming an excellent player comparable to Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees.
It's not that Cam's performance in his rookie season was not good enough, but that Lu Ke's performance was too amazing.
Because of this, experts from all walks of life have said that after entering the second grade, the performance of these two quarterbacks is also worth looking forward to. Can Cam, who has greater potential on paper, complete the counterattack and turn out to be amazing? Whether the four-seat Lu Ke can continue his strength will undoubtedly become one of the most anticipated things in the league.
Now, the 2012 season has not officially begun, but at the Pro Bowl, the secret competition between the two players has already begun.
Although in the selection of the Pro Bowl, Lu Ke was selected and Cam was not selected. The gap between the two was obvious and there was no comparison at all. However, in the skills competition, Lu Ke and Cam were enough to become the focus of attention. , for the audience in Hawaii, this may be just a piece of entertainment, but for the two players, it is an extension of the competitive stage.
Since Yu is born, how can Liang be born?
This is the best sentence to describe Cam and Lu Ke.
However, no one expected that the two rookie quarterbacks chose to arrive in Honolulu on the same day. Before the skills competition began, an undercurrent between the two people had already begun to brew.
When the first person realized this, he chose to close his mouth and carefully moved his eyes back and forth between Cam and Lu Ke. The strangeness gradually spread, and gradually, the atmosphere in the entire bus became Weird and stiff.
The turbulent heat wave that was boiling just now turned into ice in an instant. His eyes carefully looked back and forth between the two rookie quarterbacks. Everyone was observing their words and expressions, so awkward and raw that they couldn't help themselves. The cold air hit their faces. Coming here, it feels like returning to the North American mainland where the harsh winter is coming.
Lu Ke was looking for Logan and Marcus, and then he gradually felt the temperature drop, as if he had entered an air-conditioned room during the scorching heat. A layer of goosebumps appeared on the surface of his skin. At this moment, under his sight, I saw Cam's bright and sharp eyes.
Cam was really dressed up today.
A dark blue round-neck T-shirt, a bright red suit jacket, a small hat with a black ribbon... The colorful colors collided with each other, and the well-proportioned and shiny skin also had a faint glow. The luster of her face, the flamboyant and arrogant look fluttering wantonly between her brows, the confidence in her every move overflowing, even her hands were adorned with a large number of rings and bracelets.
For Lu Ke, considering the cumbersome airport security check and the exhaustion of long-distance flights, he packs as lightly as possible on every flight, and this trip was the same. A white T-shirt, light blue jeans, and a pair of canvas shoes, that's it. It's so simple that it can even be described as simple.
Now that he saw Cam, Lu Ke finally understood what a "superstar" meant.
I have heard before that those top stars never slack off. Even on long-distance flights, they will try their best to ensure that they are in the best condition. After leaving the cabin and landing at the airport, they will go to the VIP lounge to dress up. , even need to change a set of clothes, and then welcome the baptism of the media and the pursuit of fans.
This was the case just at the airport gate.
Facing fans and reporters, Lu Ke was completely caught off guard; but if it was Cam, he was obviously fully prepared.
Or to be more precise, Lu Ke finally understood what it meant to be "always prepared".
If Cam and Lu Ke appeared alone, then the different styles of the two people would be completely fine, and it was just a personal choice; but when two people appeared in the same occasion at the same time, Cam's grandness and formality seemed to be excessive. Fierce, too much is not enough, swaggering across the market like a peacock in full bloom——
Lu Ke is the rookie quarterback selected to the Pro Bowl, not Cam.
Lu Ke is the rookie quarterback who wins the cheers of the audience and reporters, not Cam.
Lu Ke is the rookie quarterback who has received much attention and praise, not Cam.
The battle on the court failed to gain the upper hand, but he showed grand splendor outside the court, vividly explaining the meaning of putting the cart before the horse. At this moment, Cam, in the eyes of everyone, looked a bit like a clown, and Lu Ke showed his calmness and wisdom.
As soon as their eyes crossed, the momentum of the two players had already changed.
But for the two parties involved, the unexpected encounter was reasonable. The confrontation on the court continued quietly to the outside. Even though it was an inadvertent encounter, Cam and Lu Ke were both prepared. He showed his posture calmly.
Sitting firmly in his seat, Cam slowly raised his chin, like a king, greeting the ministers or civilians who came from afar to see the royal family. The arrogance and contempt bursting out of his bones passed through the narrow hall. The bus aisle landed clearly and accurately on Lu Ke.
Even though he fell behind in his rookie season, Cam had no intention of showing weakness. Not only was he not timid, but he also chose to take the initiative, with a superior attitude, as if to say, "I accept your challenge." As the No. 1 pick, he looked down on the fierce impact from the undrafted rookies.
There was a sharpness and contempt in those clear black and white eyes, and he launched a fierce attack.
Cam's high posture was as if he had set up a stage, and there was a forceful and artificial posture all over his body. Lu Ke couldn't help but laugh. He looked around to make sure that there were no cameras around him that were broadcasting live, and then he took it back. He ignored Cam's provocation and attack, but looked at Logan and gestured, "Is the seat behind you empty?"
challenge? confrontation? Confrontation?
Lu Ke has never been timid and fearful, and everything will be resolved on the court; but this does not mean that he must also be like an aggressive rooster, lighting fires everywhere.
Such childish and provocative behavior should be reserved for high school.
Lu Ke's gentle smile and calm words instantly broke the tension in the bus. You can clearly feel that Lu Ke is at ease. In contrast, Cam's seriousness seems a bit ridiculous. The punch hit the cotton hard, unable to exert force or stop.
Like his attire, Cam's whole body revealed the urgency of exerting too much force.
In an instant, all eyes turned to Cam.
Cam secretly grinded his teeth, but glared at Lu Ke fiercely, and cursed in his heart, "Coward!" But on the surface, he couldn't do anything extra. He just pursed his lips and pretended to be something. As if nothing had happened, he slowly and slowly withdrew his gaze and continued chatting with his friends around him.
A silent but explosive confrontation just disappeared without a trace, but the tension between the two players was heating up. Cam, who was well prepared, still failed to gain the upper hand. The next skills competition may still be worth looking forward to.
In the bus, the chatter reappeared, and everyone began to whisper and discuss what had just happened. The competitiveness and courage of the young people were vividly reflected at this moment, and every face looked eager to try. , I can’t wait to roll up my sleeves right away and have a good contest.
Ruoyou's seemingly invisible eyes continued to fall on Lu Ke and Cam. Lu Ke didn't feel it, but Watt felt it very clearly.
Having fallen behind Lu Ke just now, Watt did not witness the brief exchange of glances, and the strangeness at this time became even more prominent. After hesitating for a moment, he still asked, "Kay, can I ask you a question?" After receiving a positive answer, Watt said seriously, "Why is Bambi so popular here?"
For Watt, he was just curious.
But for other players, who had just witnessed the electric confrontation between Lu Ke and Cam, this question now seemed meaningful and meaningful.
In an instant, all eyes were directed towards him.
Cam glared at Watt with an extremely sharp look, obviously thinking that Watt was targeting him deliberately. The provocation and sharpness bursting out from the depths of his eyes could hardly be concealed. Then he saw Watt turn his head and face Cam innocently. With his sight, the strong body like a bull forcefully pushed back Cam's attack.
Cam's breath got stuck in his throat.
Watt ignored Cam's little girlish thoughts, turned his head again, and further explained, "I mean, is there any special connection between Bambi and Hawaii? Just now at the airport gate, the fans cheered the loudest. .”
"That's right." After Watt finished speaking, Logan also shouted, "The same goes for those Hawaiian girls!"
No one cares about the peacock with its tail spread out; this low-key peacock calls out a hundred promises.
