In the 2012 Super Bowl, the San Francisco 49ers challenged the perfect season, the Baltimore Ravens continued to break out of unyielding mode; Ray Lewis in the last game of his career, Lu Ke reappeared in the "Cinderella" fairy tale; the San Francisco 49ers were haunted by the league's curse , the Baltimore Ravens who are getting more and more courageous in the playoffs; and the "Hubble Bowl" of the two brothers John Hubble and Jim Hubble...
There are countless topics of discussion, and just making a list is enough to reawaken those passionate memory fragments and instantly dream back to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
However, the Super Bowl in the 2013 season was obviously much more regular. There was no feuding history between the two teams. There was also a lack of topic-provoking matchups between the coaches and players. Even the entire season's journey lacked things to talk about after dinner. Gossip collides, even if the media reports try hard to find it, there is still a lack of sparks that can ignite the chemical reaction...
However, sometimes just one focus is enough.
The duel of "Big Manning VS Lu Ke" is more or less tainted with the flavor of fate, from the regular season MVP contest to the competition between the first and second teams in the United States, from the praise of the best offensive team in the league to the replacement of old and new. Heritage, everything falls on the first official confrontation between these two top quarterbacks in their careers, and this confrontation happened to take place on the decisive stage of the Super Bowl, which is enough to ignite everyone's enthusiasm for discussion. .
Compared to fans and audiences, industry professionals know the value and significance of this showdown more clearly!
"We all know clearly that for every player, they have their own battle to persevere. The stage of the Super Bowl itself is destined to be no ordinary game. Every player and every coach , every fan is like this, but for Peyton Manning and Lu Ke, it is even more meaningful."
"Peyton Manning, who is about to turn 38, is trying to become the first quarterback in history to lead two different teams to win the Super Bowl. At the same time, this future Hall of Fame quarterback, Also chasing his second Super Bowl ring, he just completed an incredible season, perfect enough to make people believe that this is their best time, whether it is this year or ever."
"And the third-year student Lu Ke is still writing his history. He is trying to become the first quarterback to lead the team to defend the championship in the past ten years. For the defending champion, this is an injury-ridden season. The team struggled very much throughout the season, always looking for a winning formula. They defeated the odds and the impossible, and finally came to the Super Bowl stage. They had no reason to stop."
"As I just said: Everyone has their own battle! Likewise, everyone faces powerful opponents! This Super Bowl is destined to be a fateful confrontation. In the end, only one side will have the last laugh and taste the victory alone. The joy. This is the cruelty of competitive sports but also the charm of competitive sports."
ESPN's "Inside the League" is producing a Super Bowl special, and host Edward Bowen kicked off this episode with an emotional introduction.
As Edward said, perhaps the number and popularity of this year's Super Bowl are not as exciting as last year, but the "old and new alternation" showdown between the two quarterbacks is full of a sense of fate, grand and tragic, tragic and magnificent, and powerful. The strong chemical reaction between the collisions easily surpassed last year's excitement. Apart from being excited and excited, it is inevitable to be filled with emotion and wonder. The mixed emotions have more powerful stamina and aftertaste.
Whether you analyze it from an emotional or rational perspective, this is a peak showdown not to be missed.
Mark Coleman picked up the beer on the table and took a long sip. He glanced at the "Inside the League" playing on the big screen from the corner of his eye, but there was no hindrance to the words in his mouth. , expressing his opinions endlessly, arguing with a red face.
"...You never know how much energy Bambi can burst out in trouble! Tony said that Bambi is a player born for big scenes! The more critical the game, the better his performance! This year Three playoff games are the best proof! He is unstoppable!"
Although this is the territory of the Dallas Cowboys, and although they missed the playoffs this season, it does not mean that they cannot enjoy the carnival of the annual Super Bowl - because of the personal relationship between Tony Romo and Lu Ke, Also because Jerry Jones has expressed his admiration for Lu Ke in public on many occasions, Lu Ke has been highly discussed among Dallas Cowboys fans and has also successfully won the support of many fans:
After the regular season ended this season, the Dallas Cowboys were determined to miss the playoffs. Some fans once launched a vote on Twitter to choose a quarterback to replace Tony Romo - in fact, Romo has just started this season. The possibility of completing the contract extension and replacing the starting quarterback is very low, but it still cannot stop the fans' desire for the playoffs and their enthusiasm for rebuilding the team. Anyway, it is just an expectation raised by the fans.
In this voting statistics, Lu Ke won 26.8% of the votes, far ahead of the second-ranked "Rookie Selection in the Draft", which received 17.1% of the votes.
Now, the Super Bowl is coming, football fans are talking about it, and the Dallas Cowboys are naturally not absent.
"No, no, no, you should look at Manning's team! Four receivers and one running back all scored double-digit touchdowns! Scored a whopping 606 points throughout the season! Jesus Christ! That's six hundred. Points! Averaged over 37.8 points per game, this is a monster! I don’t think even the Legion of Boom can stop them!"
"I agree with James! Manning scored more than 50 points in three games throughout the regular season. Not only their passing attack, but their ground attack is also far better than the data. It's just because the passing attack is too strong. As for covering up the ground attack, I bet San Francisco can’t resist it!”
The dissenting voices chirped, and it was clear that Dallas Cowboys fans were impressed by the strength of the Denver Broncos' offense this season.
In response, Mark fought back without showing any signs of weakness, "I know, I know, remember? I was there when we faced Denver."
This season, the Denver Broncos have scored more than 50 points in three games, the best in league history. The three games were against the Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys and Tennessee Titans. The away game against the Dallas Cowboys was also one of the best of the season. The final score was "48:51", which is absolutely thrilling.
Mark was there to witness the narrow defeat, and had a clear understanding of the strength of the Denver Broncos, "But have you forgotten? San Francisco also scored more than 50 points in both the divisional round and the National League finals. Pay attention. ! That’s not the regular season, it’s the playoffs!”
Just as it happened, similar opinions came from "within the league" at this time, "...and they faced two defensive teams, the Carolina Panthers and the Seattle Seahawks! The strength shown in the playoffs, It shows that now this team is ready and they are not afraid of any kind of confrontation.”
Mark raised his hand and pointed to the big screen on the wall of the bar, "In the final analysis, this is the contest between Manning and Lu Ke! Whether it is the pass defense of San Francisco or Denver, it is difficult to suppress the offense of the two quarterbacks. This is also It means that the two quarterbacks' control of the context of the game will determine the outcome."
"That's what I mean! Are you deaf or mentally retarded? Manning has a hot hand and is in great shape. He can beat San Francisco's defense and he can beat Bambi!" one of the fans yelled with foam at the mouth. The thoughts in his head, with protruding veins, seemed like they might explode at any time.
"Oh!" Unexpectedly, there were exclamations, protests and denials all around, "No, no, no, it's definitely not that simple!"
"Manning is very good, but Bambi is definitely not easy either."
"No one in the entire league could defeat Bambi that easily."
"From last year to this year, Bambi only lost two games as a starter - against Brees. How easy is it to beat him?"
"Your statement is too arbitrary."
"If the game enters a critical moment, I think Bambi can have the upper hand. His and Hubble's tactics are very bold, and they are more daring than Fox and Manning."
The bustling discussions in the entire bar were all intertwined, and it was impossible to distinguish them for a while. Then Mark had to shout repeatedly to signal everyone to quiet down and listen to the professional opinions "within the alliance."
"...I think a set of data is very worthy of attention: Peyton Manning attempted 675 passes and completed 450 passes during the regular season this season. Both of these data are the highest in the league, but his passing The success rate is 68.3%, which is third in the league; in addition, Peyton Manning’s number of long pass attempts is not even among the top ten in the league. Even Tom Brady, who mainly focuses on short passes, has only 10 long pass attempts this season. All higher than Manning."
"This means that Manning's tactical style and system have changed. It also means that injuries and age still have an impact on Manning's passing accuracy and passing power. From his rookie season to Now, passing accuracy has never been Manning's strong point. The core reason for being able to control the number of interceptions to ten this season is due to the strong performance of the entire receiving team. This will also be an opportunity for the San Francisco defense. .”
The analysis on the TV screen continued, but the argument in the bar started again.
"Nonsense! This is all nonsense! The Boomsticks can still sweep the league! So what did the Boomsticks do against San Francisco's injury-ridden receiving team?"
"Are you unable to react? What was said in the show just now is not what it meant at all. Your understanding is completely wrong. Stop drinking, okay? Their views are consistent with yours, okay? You said they are Nonsense, didn’t you blame yourself for it?”
"Ha ha!"
