Time is like an arrow, after the start of the regular season, time is always running at high speed, Wednesday's official media day seems to be yesterday's, Lu Ke has become the focus of all reporters to chase and intercept, but the reporters returned empty-handed, no revelations have been dug up, and the expressions of disappointment and chagrin are still vivid; In the blink of an eye, race day is upon us again.

On October 9, at 1:05 p.m. Western Time, the San Francisco 49ers' home game against the Tampa Bay Bucrates will be on time at Candlestick Field.

As the team bus slowly drove towards the pitch, the players adjusted their condition and prepared for the game according to their own habits, and inevitably, the tense atmosphere began to permeate, regardless of the defeat in the previous game, and the more urgent the desire to win, the hotter the tense air.

"Logan, I'm sorry, I'll ask one more question, just one ......" Mike Rupati lowered his voice, patted Logan's shoulder, pointed to Lu Ke who was sitting next to the window, and said apologetically, and then saw Lu Ke turn his head, Rupati hurriedly asked, "We said just now that if his finger becomes this gesture, it will be an inside attack; But if it's a gesture, it's running the ball to defend? ”

Since Tuesday's meeting, there has been a wave of playbook study within the offensive team, studying the game against the Philadelphia Eagles, studying the previous three games, and then studying the last two games of the Pirates.

Not everyone can get a perfect score on the von derrick test.

"Mike, Mike!" Lu Ke stopped Rupati in a loud voice, and then motioned for him to put down the gesture of his hands, "In the middle of the game, not to mention whether we have time to observe so many details, even if there is, if your attention keeps wandering, your reaction speed will slow down." We explain those gestures, just an auxiliary, if you catch a glimpse of the eye, then there is a reminder, but I can't remember, it doesn't matter, in the final analysis, every attack, the tactics are changing. ”

In the middle of the game, the attacking and defensive fronts are face-to-face and the two sides can clearly see each other. Before the attack begins, the strikers on both sides have their own habitual movements, such as the fingers supporting the body, and there are some changes in gestures; Another example is the shift of the body's center of gravity and gaze, which can often inadvertently reveal one's tactical strategy.

Why is it so important to watch the game footage? That's one of the reasons why, knowing your opponent thoroughly, interpreting them thoroughly, can often work wonders in the moments of the game.

But the side effect is that after getting into the tip of the horn, you can't get out. It's like Rupati is now.

Looking at Rupatti's stunned appearance, Lu Ke thought about it seriously, "In the final analysis, the crux of the tactics is still on Michael Bennett (Michael-Bennett), use your intuition, judge Bennett's movement and posture, and stare at him stubbornly, often with unexpected effects." If these gestures are too cumbersome, you might as well forget about them altogether. ”

Michael Bennett, an undrafted rookie in 2009, is a defensive tackle.

The reason for the defeat that year was that Bennett's performance in college was up and down, and he could not be consistent and consistent; After losing the draft, Bennett went through a tryout and moved to the Seattle Seahawks to play on the defensive end, but unfortunately, a month after the start of the season, he was cut and later moved to the Tampa Bay Pirates, where he settled and returned to the defensive tackle position.

This season, Bennett has once again stepped into the defensive position and has become an important pivot in the resurgence of the Tampa Bay Pirates defense with his raiding and sackling abilities.

In the team's "4-3" tactics, raiding and running are their strengths. However, because the other three defensive forwards of the team are all rookie players, and the overall strength of the defensive tackles is relatively average, lacking bright spots; So in defense, Bennett is the key to the core, and his movement will determine whether the Buccaneers' defensive focus is on raiding quarterbacks or running defense-

This is also the fifth consecutive week that the San Francisco 49ers have faced a team that is better at running ball defense than passing defense.

As scouts commented on previous drafts, Bennett's play in the game was not very consistent, not up and down, but it did fluctuate, and the teammates who played side by side on the defensive front line were not stable enough, which made the Tampa Bay Pirates' defensive group not as strong as expected.

"Bennett, Bennett, Bennett." Lu Ke repeated it several times in a row, and then saw Rupati nodding his head to show confirmation, and then continued, "The rest, or according to the coach's arrangement, we will act on the field, don't get distracted." ”

The coaching staff knows about the tactical manual learning gathering among the rookie players, and they are very encouraging and proactive in communicating with the players, but the rookie players have many limitations in all aspects of the overall situation, tactical understanding and change extension, so in the final analysis, they still need to listen to the coach's advice and direction.

Lu Ke never thought he was omnipotent, let alone an offensive forward, even if it was a quarterback's tactical manual, he still had a lot to learn slowly.

Rupati did not answer, but nodded ignorantly, and fell into his own thoughts, as if he did not understand; But then, he stared at the window in a daze, and opened his mouth slowly, slowly, slowly, with a stunned expression on his face that could hardly be concealed, and before Lu Ke and Logan asked, a low sound of agitation sounded in the carriage.

Lu Ke and Logan exchanged glances, and both of them turned their heads and followed Rupati's line of sight, and then saw the vast sea of red gold in front of them.

Large expanses of red rush along the road of Candlestick Park, all the way meandering towards the direction of the course, occasionally looming and embellishing gold, light and subtly brightening the boundless red, outlining a touch of surging and boiling, as if you can faintly hear the surging roar, standing at the mouth of the waterfall where the river enters the sea, the sonorous and majestic sound echoes above the eardrum for a long time.

Magnificent, majestic, magnificent.

What's even more amazing is that there are countless red waves in all directions, like a trickle, converging into the entire river endlessly, setting off stormy waves. Gradually, gradually, the green vegetation, the blue sky, and the white buildings in the field of vision dissolved into the infinite red, creating the illusion that all other colors were shrinking little by little, and the whole world began to writhe and roll.

unimaginable, absolutely unimaginable.

This is the third home game of the San Francisco 49ers in the 2011 season, but the scene in front of him is something Lu Ke has never seen. Not only Lu Ke, but even Patrick Willis, Alex Smith and other senior players, one by one, showed expressions of surprise and exclamation, looking at the grand occasion in front of them dumbfounded, unable to make a sound at all.

Such a candelabra park has a kind of power that makes people's blood boil!

The team bus slowly moved forward, and the dense crowd slowly opened up to the sides like a tide, separating a passageway, such a scene involuntarily reminiscent of the Bible story, Moses raised his staff high, opened a road to heaven in the Red Sea in front of him, and led everyone across the Red Sea.

In front of me, there is a sea of red, the real red sea; The team bus is like the Titanic, strong and huge, but it is so small above the vast ocean, riding the wind and waves, and moving forward slowly.

"49 people! Hey, 49! Up, on! ”

"Come on, guys, it's up to you this week!"

"Well done, brothers, beautiful!"

"Bambi! Bambi! Come on, I'm sure you can do it! ”

"Destroy the pirates! Quick, destroy them! ”

……

The bustling cheers surged from all directions, everyone enthusiastically slapped the outer wagon of the bus, and the thumping sound began to shake the whole big ship, as if it was a real stormy wave; Excited and excited faces filled every corner of the sight, and boiling enthusiasm, high-spirited excitement and surging excitement surged throughout the Candlestick Park.

In the dense line of sight, Lu Ke caught a thin figure, he raised the support card in his hand high, struggled through the crowd, followed the rhythm of the bus step by step, trying not to fall behind, and then kept waving the simple card, still shouting what words in his mouth, and his whole face was filled with happiness.

Suddenly, the card appeared in front of Lu Ke's eyes, "Lu Ke, my hero!" Please keep leading the team forward! ”

A faint feeling flowed and rolled in his chest, but in the next second, the thin boy disappeared into the sea of red, turning into a drop of water in the vast sea, only the simple cheering card was still waving above the heads of the crowd, stubbornly and firmly expressing support.

"We are! Warrior! ”

"We are! Warrior! ”

"We are! Warrior! ”

Outside the window, there was an enthusiastic roar from far and near, attracting the attention of all the players, and the players' tunnel of the stadium was already not far away, a large group of fans gathered together, red and red intermingled, it was impossible to distinguish the specific number of people, but only captured a boil.

They raised their hands in the air, clenched them into fists, and cried out in a hoarse, terrifying voice, "We are! Warrior! ”

One match and one harmony, one after the other, really burst out the blood of the warriors, that powerful wave of qi, rolling in, truly showing iron blood and toughness, stirring up layers of sound waves in the ears, echoing endlessly, it seems that even the bland candlestick stadium in front of you, at this time has been lit a blazing torch, enough to illuminate the entire sky, even the afternoon sun seems eclipsed.

This is the real home field!
