The transfer of wide receiver Anquan Boldin is undoubtedly one of the most important additions to the San Francisco 49ers' stretched wide receiver lineup. If Boldin and Ginn can cooperate as soon as possible, Coupled with the two tight ends of Vernon and Logan, the team's offensive weapons can still remain relatively stable before the start of the new season.
In the official training camp, wide receivers are still the key position to be evaluated. Including trial players, Jim Harbaugh has hoarded nine wide receivers to test in different permutations and combinations, hoping to be able to compete in the final fifty. Among the three-man roster, five to six players are left to prepare for the new season.
For the San Francisco 49ers, the task in this year's training camp is very serious.
Overall, although there have been extensive substitutions in the defensive bench, which has posed more challenges to third-level defense and red zone defense, the starting lineup has remained basically stable, which also means that during the training camp, Enhancing the defensive strength of rotation players and substitute players is a top priority.
The offense faces a slightly different problem.
Of course, the serious shortage of wide receivers, the improvement of the running back position, etc. are all issues that cannot be ignored, but the more important and serious issues are:
In the past two seasons, the team's West Coast offensive system has gradually revealed its full picture, and all its trump cards have been revealed. The other 31 teams are studying the San Francisco 49ers' tactical system over and over again; this year, as the defending champion Champion, the challenges encountered are bound to be more difficult.
This also means that the offensive team must polish its tactical system to be more solid and more versatile. Now that the existing trump cards have been displayed, more new trump cards need to be created.
The passing offense is undoubtedly the core hub of the San Francisco 49ers' entire team. After completing Lu Ke's contract renewal in the offseason, all tactical systems are now built around Lu Ke. Not only the offensive team, but also the relevant tactics of the defensive team and special teams have changed more or less.
Lu Ke can clearly feel that his tasks in the training camp are beginning to become arduous. Not only do he need to run in with new players, but he also needs to continuously think about more tactical changes. It can be seen from the team's training camp preparations. In addition to wide receivers, Hubble has also accumulated a large number of trial players at the positions of running backs and quarterbacks:
The running back is to relieve the passing pressure on the quarterback, and both Gall and Marcus need to further improve their status.
The quarterback is not to replace Lu Ke, but to better study offensive tactics. Lu Ke, in particular, is a player full of offensive talent. In the past two seasons, he has often been able to adjust tactics according to opportunities during the game. Now he needs a different style of quarterback to inspire more and ensure that The offensive team's training and tactics can be more diverse.
For Lu Ke, this is a challenge! An exciting new challenge! In addition to competing as the defending champion, the third grade is full of more freshness and excitement compared to the first two seasons. I am eager to try!
Now among the quarterback group, there are four substitute players besides Lu Ke:
Third-year player Colin Kaepernick, 2011 undrafted player McLeod-Bethel-Thompson, 2010 third-round 85th overall pick Colt McCoy (Colt-McCoy), and this year’s seventh-round pick No. 237 overall pick BJ Daniels.
Among them, Kaepernick, McCoy and Daniels are all running quarterbacks. Kaepernick's running is stronger than passing, Daniels is relatively balanced, and McCoy's passing is stronger than running; in addition, Thompson is a traditional pocket quarterback like Lu Ke, but Thompson still runs the ball slightly more than Lu Ke.
In other words, the five players have different playing styles and tactical layouts. Under the same situation, each player may make different choices, which also makes the offensive team's tactical combinations suddenly change. . The task of the coaching team headed by Jim Harbaugh and Craig Roman is to constantly think of more potential tactical layouts; and Lu Ke's task is to gather the quarterback group, continue to experiment and practice, and The coaching staff's ideas evolved into reality and were tested for feasibility and success.
This is not an easy task.
But Lu Ke enjoyed it, and it could even be said that he enjoyed it.
Before you know it, preseason has arrived.
In the first week of August, the San Francisco 49ers ushered in their first preseason opponent, the Denver Broncos, at Candlestick Stadium.
Last season, the "Lu Ke VS Manning" duel was generally considered to be a dream lineup for the Super Bowl, but unfortunately, it did not take place in the end; and this season, the duel between the two quarterbacks is still full of excitement. Highlights, even though it was just a preseason game, it also attracted a lot of attention.
Both Lu Ke and Peyton Manning only appeared in the first quarter of the game. The two players were evenly matched and each received a passing touchdown. Then they both left the field and the backup quarterback completed the remaining three quarters of the game.
The four backup quarterbacks of the San Francisco 49ers came on stage in turns and continued to adjust the tactical combinations, but the effect was far below expectations. On the one hand, the quarterback's defensive reading, tactical execution and on-the-spot response were obviously not fully prepared. , the entire offense seemed fragmented, and even made a super low-level mistake of not knowing where to move after kicking off the ball.
On the other hand, the route running of the wide receivers is a complete mess. Ted Ginn only appeared in the first half of the first quarter. The rest of the time was played by the newly joined wide receivers, but the route was headless. The running game was a disaster. They didn't fully understand the playbook and often went in the wrong direction when executing the playbook, which further put the quarterback in trouble.
This is football.
If the wide receivers and tight ends cannot complete the ball, then even if the quarterback has three heads and six arms, there is still nothing he can do.
Although the performance of the Denver Broncos' bench was extremely poor, they still took away a victory from the away game with a score of "7:10" and got a good start to the preseason.
What was expected was a duel, but it turned into a mismatch, much to the dismay of everyone watching.
ESPN's "within the league" comments are undoubtedly the most professional and pertinent: The defending champion is trying to make changes, but obviously changes require a painful period, and there are still no results, so the performance is very poor. Next is a severe test of the coaching staff and players' practice quality, otherwise they may suffer pain all the way into the regular season. This is definitely not good news.
In the second week of August, the San Francisco 49ers went away to challenge the Kansas City Chiefs.
Last year, Alex Smith transferred to Kansas, but suffered an injury season and struggled very hard; this year, San Francisco and Kansas completed a series of cooperative player transactions. It can be seen that the two teams have a strong relationship with each other. The team manager has a close personal relationship.
Before the game officially started, Lu Ke and Alex Smith were still standing together talking and laughing. It can be seen that the relationship between the two people is still good. When they meet again, the competitive atmosphere is gone and they have become closer to each other. Alex also joked to himself, "I shouldn't have transferred. Look what I missed."
However, neither Lu Ke nor Alex appeared on the court, and the team is still honing its substitute lineup.
Lu Ke stood next to the offensive coach and acted as the assistant to the on-site tactical commander, directing the four backup quarterbacks to take turns on the field, and was also responsible for explaining tactics during breaks.
"15:13", the home team is in front and the away team is in the back. The Kansas Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers. The defending champion suffered two consecutive losses in the preseason.
What's worse than the two consecutive losses is that the offensive tactics in these two games were a mess. The scores were far lower than expected, and the smoothness of the past two seasons was completely lost, not to mention The wisdom of strategizing and the wit of adapting to situations - the quarterback's role as the brain of the entire offensive team can be seen, even the system quarterback is no exception.
After the game, the coaching staff discussed and took the lead in cutting this year's seventh-round pick BJ Daniels.
Although Daniels was relatively balanced, he was deficient in both abilities, especially his indigestion of San Francisco's Oxford Dictionary-like playbook and his inability to keep up with the progress, so he was laid off. Then he went to the Seattle Seahawks, in San Francisco He found a position in the lineup of his rivals in the same district - the sparring group.
In the third week of August, the San Francisco 49ers returned to home against the Minnesota Vikings.
Lu Ke still made a truce.
However, Kaepernick and McCoy both played brilliantly and finally opened up the situation. They both shined in the first and second half and successfully defeated the visiting Minnesota Vikings "34:14" and won the first game of the preseason. victory.
In the fourth week of August, the San Francisco 49ers went away again to challenge the San Diego Chargers.
Lu Ke finally came on the field. He played for one game, scored a touchdown steadily, and once advanced to the free kick area, winning ten points for the team, and then went off to rest.
Kaepernick and McCoy took over the game again. Both of them showed incredible desire to compete, each scoring two touchdowns and a free kick. In the end, the team easily defeated the opponent with "6:41" and completed the game. Completed the pre-season running-in task.
Before the official start of the regular season, in order to reduce the roster to fifty-three players, the coaching staff must make a choice.
In the past two seasons, the team has always been equipped with three quarterbacks. To put it nicely, it means that it is prepared, but to put it badly, it means that it cannot fully trust Lu Ke; but this year's situation is different. The team is only prepared to leave one substitute four quarterbacks. Shooting guard, you can leave one more player in other positions.
Hubble asked McCoy if he was willing to stay in the sparring group. McCoy refused. He still hoped to stay in the fifty-three-man roster. In the end, McCoy left the team and went to the Washington Redskins, entering the fifty-three. Three-man roster, serving as backup quarterback.
As a result, Kaepernick served as the backup quarterback and Thompson remained on the sparring group.
The new season is about to begin!
