fine. Suspended. warn.
The matter of Mikel's rough collision with Lu Ke seemed to have come to an end.
At least on the surface it seems that way, everything has been settled, but is this really the case? Obviously not.
For the San Francisco 49ers, Lu Ke has an injury risk. Although it seems to be fine for the time being and it will not affect his debut game, it is like a time bomb. No one knows when it will explode. What impact will it have, especially as the second half of the season is about to enter the critical stage of the playoffs? This is really annoying.
It's all down to Mikel's unsportsmanlike rough and tumble!
For the Carolina Panthers, Mikel was suspended for four games. Players and coaches were vocally dissatisfied. Coupled with the brutal defeat, they were directly nailed to the pillar of shame. The league's "biased" penalties were even more severe. This kind of anger is suppressed and repressed, waiting for it to explode at a certain moment, but no one knows when it will be.
If it weren’t for that damn Lu Ke’s injury!
More importantly, for both teams, if the accident in this game becomes a turning point in the entire season and causes either team to miss the playoffs, then this time the gap will really be high!
They are not mortal enemies in the same district, but they are better than their enemies for generations. The hostility complex between the San Francisco 49ers and the Carolina Panthers has officially become entangled. This is the origin of "Lu Ke VS Newton".
But the irony is that after the game, everyone's attention was focused on Mikel's rough collision, but ignored the duel between Lu Ke and Cam. Amid all the heated discussion, people have completely forgotten why the game garnered so much attention in the first place.
It was not until the controversy gradually subsided that Spencer Larson mentioned during the recording of the "Inside the League" program:
"Lu Ke, who only played for three quarters in this game, scored the fourth perfect quarterback rating in his career, tying Peyton Manning's record and becoming the only two people in league history to achieve such a score four times. Achieved quarterback; the point is that when Manning achieved this achievement, he was a 28-year-old veteran who had been in the league for six years, and this was Lu Ke's third season!"
Yes, Lu Ke's quarterback rating once again received full marks!
27 of 30 passes, 378 yards, five touchdowns, no interceptions, quarterback rating of 158.0, PFF rating of 2.0.
Simply looking at the data, we can see Lu Ke's strong control, with a 90% passing success rate, and he handed over five passing touchdowns without encountering any interceptions; not only that, thirty passing attempts were far away. It's not high. In terms of balance between passing and running, it still continues the good momentum since returning from injury this season. It shows that Lu Ke's control over the game is gradually maturing.
This offseason, when NFL TV voted for the top 100 superstars, the official made a concluding statement, "Lu Ke is becoming more and more cautious about every pass, but at the same time he will not let go of every big pass. Counting the adventurous opportunities to advance, and controlling offensive and defensive confrontations, he seems to have the viciousness and sophistication of a ten-year veteran."
After the start of the new season, Lu Ke, who has experienced injuries, is also proving this with practical actions.
For the fourth time in his career, the quarterback rating was perfect, surpassing Ben Roethlisberger and Kurt Warner, and tying with Peyton Manning for the most in history. This also made Lu Ke join Steve Young, Joe... Montana and the two legendary quarterbacks of the San Francisco 49ers are on par with each other. In just three seasons, they have become the backbone of the team. From ability to experience to temperament, they have truly shouldered the responsibility of a leader.
In stark contrast is Cam's quarterback rating.
16 of 32 passes, 169 yards, one touchdown, one interception, quarterback rating of 63.15, PFF rating of -1.4.
Wait, a quarterback rating of "63.15" doesn't seem so bad... right? At least there was no bloodbath like when Russell Wilson hit the bottom when he faced the San Francisco 49ers, but if you look carefully, you will know that the pass success rate is 50%, and the passing and running of the ball are all suffered. Limitation - The ground rush only advanced 23 yards, which also meant that Cam's offensive weapons were completely frozen, and he was not even able to mount a decent resistance, and just died out.
What's even more frightening than the defeat is that it's quite average and has no bright spots. The quarterback rating of 63.15 just proves this. After the running back shares most of the firepower and admits most of the responsibility, Cam, the quarterback, becomes Dispensable - a lot of data was recovered during the garbage time of the fourth quarter.
Objectively speaking, Cam still has two skills. Not only is he not a parallel import, but he also has certain abilities. Otherwise, in the fierce competition in the NFL, he would not be able to sit firmly as the starting quarterback of the Carolina Panthers for three consecutive seasons. position - staying in the league and starting the game are two worlds apart.
But there is no harm without comparison. At least judging from this game, the gap between Cam and Lu Ke is all-round, and Cam’s proud physical fitness is not the same among a group of steel-reinforced musclemen in the professional league. No matter what, the weak passing ability and the confusion of defensive reading made Cam unable to implement effective countermeasures when facing the San Francisco 49ers defense. In the end... the result was like this.
People can say that one game cannot explain too many problems; people can say that the outcome of a football game involves too many factors; people can also say that the execution of tactics is the responsibility of the coach rather than the quarterback... ...Excuses are always there. People can find too many excuses for Cam for this game, but the fact is that Cam failed miserably in this battle for the No. 1 pick.
Facing the No. 1 pick in the 2011 draft, Lu Ke gave a perfect performance in the three quarters and proved his ability with an undisputed performance - if Lu Ke continues to complete the fourth quarter, with his state, it is entirely possible to continue. Brush up the data, but he didn't, just three quarters of the game was enough.
In a low-key manner, Lu Ke once again created his own record - the fourth perfect quarterback rating in his career. If Spencer hadn't specifically mentioned it, people would have even ignored this historical record; however, when " When the program "Within the Alliance" was broadcast, everyone believed that this was still not the end.
Faced with such a performance by Lu Ke, Cam was completely reduced to a background, which can be said to be "losing both games and people".
Rumor has it that after the game, Cam got furious in the visiting team’s locker room——
The offensive line that had performed well in the previous four consecutive victories was almost useless in this game. It was basically papery, allowing the home team's defensive front to get whatever it wanted. Cam suffered four sacks, five hits, and two passes in the entire game. Ball interference, five pressure passes and countless indirect hits, he almost never stood in the pocket and completed the pass properly.
Cam's anger failed to unite the locker room, but instead made the offensive line members furious and launch a counterattack——
If the running back team hadn't been wiping Cam's butt, I'm afraid this game would have been even more ugly. It was obviously Cam's failure to make effective arrangements and execution of tactics, defensive reading and changes, which resulted in The offensive line has been at a disadvantage many times, but he still wants to counterattack? Offensive linemen who are accustomed to hard work and dirty work are not willing to swallow their anger.
The strong momentum of four consecutive victories collapsed instantly in the face of the rising momentum of the San Francisco 49ers, and the instability within the Carolina Panthers locker room was completely released.
But the rumors are just rumors after all. The Carolina Panthers have not responded from all aspects. The only way to get a glimpse of the truth is that Cam missed the recovery training on Tuesday.
The official reason given was "ankle ligament tightening" - this is Cam's old injury since college. He took a short rest after a fierce game. This is also a routine procedure. Outsiders want to There is no way to get some clues from it.
Similarly, Lu Ke also missed Tuesday's recovery training. The official reason given was "knee injury recovery."
Although the team's official announcement was an understatement, fans were extremely worried, fearing that Lu Ke would be injured again due to Mikel's collision. Countless fans' heartwarming messages appeared on social networks and official websites, expressing their hope that Lu Ke would be injured again. To be safe and sound, there were even large numbers of fans who came to the training base in person - even though it was not a public training session, they still showed up to show their support.
For this reason, the team had to issue an unprecedented statement again, saying that Lu Ke's injury has not recurred for the time being. It was just because he suffered a strong collision and his body needed to rest and adjust to prepare for the second half of the season. This calmed the fans' commotion. Come down.
Everyone knows that it is difficult to defend a title, and it is difficult to reach the sky, especially the repeated accidents of injuries and personnel problems, which often make the journey of the defending champion full of uncertainties; but when things really happen, the tension and worry are still there. If we don't get rid of it, the San Francisco 49ers have faced enough unexpected situations this season. Although the current record has reached six wins and three losses, there have been stumbling blocks along the way, which always makes people worry.
The future is still full of uncertainties.
The only thing fans can pray for now is: Lu Ke must never get injured again!
Obviously, fans are not the only group who have such thoughts——
"Wait, wait, Prince Bambi, be careful! Let us move His Highness's car over, and you can move it again, otherwise it will accidentally bump into it, which will be bad."
When Lu Ke appeared in the tactical conference room, the two live treasures Logan and Marcus immediately started to sneer, both rolled down from their seats, ran over in a hurry, and put on a show. With flattering expressions on their faces, the two people crossed their four hands and built a "human/meat/sedanan" in an attempt to welcome Lu Ke's arrival.
Looking at such a simple and unorganized "car" in front of me, I don't know whether it is to protect Lu Ke or to harm Lu Ke. It makes people laugh and cry.
