“…… How's that, are you ready to catch my pass? Lu Ke gave Jean a big hug and teased with a smile.

When he was about to let go of his embrace, he found that Jean was still hugging him tightly, and seemed to be reluctant to let go, which made Lu Ke tease, "I know I'm a heartthrob, but unfortunately, I already have sugar candy and can't accept your confession." We are still friends. ”

Originally, Jean was still a little emotional, and his complicated mood could not be accurately described, but now that it was all destroyed, he couldn't help but laugh directly, "Sure enough, you are still the same as before, I haven't heard your cold jokes for a while, but I miss it a little." Jean let go of his embrace, and a little sadness turned into a smile, "I'm just worried, I'm back in the team, I don't know if I'll be able to find my place." ”

Jean's worries are objective.

Lu Ke is a tactical quarterback who is constantly adjusting his tactics according to his own situation, the situation of his team and the situation of his opponent, and he still found a way to continue the offense during Jean's absence:

Garrett Salek is now firmly in the team's No. 2 near end position, and Vernon Davis, who has returned from a concussion, has not been able to return to the starting line-up for the time being; The combination of Michael Crabtree and Angang Bolting is also gradually finding a sense and firmly occupying the starting wide receiver position.

After Jean returned from injury, the San Francisco 49ers' originally overstretched receiving lineup suddenly became overcrowded. How exactly should they be arranged and combined will also be an important question in the next Nations League finals. For Lu Ke, he has more choices, and he is naturally more free; But for the receiving team itself, they need to compete for positions, and the fierce internal competition makes them have to tighten up even more.

"Ted, instead of worrying about starting a place or playing here, let's show the manager that you're still the right person to strike far." Lu Ke smiled and gave his opinion sincerely, "You should know that in your specialty field, no one in our team can beat you. ”

In the past few games, Lu Ke has habitually missed Jean, whose role on the field is definitely not only a long-pass target, but also a time bomb in the far-reaching area

After three seasons of hard work, the teams have long figured out Jean's characteristics and style, if Lu Ke chooses a long pass, Jean must be the number one choice, which also means that as long as Jean is present, the security guards in the backfield should not be taken lightly; And as long as Lu Ke makes a long pass, Jean will inevitably become a key defensive target. Lu Ke can make full use of these two points, even if he does not use Jean as a passing target, the entire tactical layout can become flexible.

To put it simply, Jean's tactical role even outstripped his own ability to receive the ball, just like Logan.

The biggest problem now is the degree of recovery of Jean's form, in addition to the vertical strike ability, the ability to interpret the game such as route pulling, fighter capture and running and blocking, etc., is very important, which will also determine Jean's position in the offensive tactical system.

Against the Seattle Seahawks, Lu Ke desperately needs Jean to return to the team, but only if Jean's pace and form must keep up with the team.

At the end of the day, you still need strength to speak.

After returning from injury, it is definitely not an easy task to find the rhythm of the game again, Lu Ke himself knows it well, and sometimes he may never find it; But this is a difficult challenge that every professional player must face, such as sailing against the current, or retreating.

Now, it's Jean's turn to sail against the tide for the second time in three years, and the difficulty is multiplied!

Jean looked at Lu Ke carefully, the heart hanging high slowly returned to his chest, those confusion and hesitation, those apprehension and helplessness, unconsciously precipitated: Lu Ke is still the same Lu Ke, the team is still the same team, everything is familiar, during his absence due to injury, the team has not changed, the tension in his heart can't help but slowly relax, and even his expression is much more relaxed.

Although Lu Ke didn't say anything about chicken soup for the soul, nor did he say anything about encouragement, Jean felt a sense of steadiness, and his smile rose again, "Come on, come on, you say, I'm going to face Richard Sherman?" Or Cam Chancellor? As long as you say it, I have no problem. ”

"Such an attitude is a positive sign. There's no way to tell you the answer today, though, I'm watching the footage of the Seattle defensive front and waiting until it's your turn to come on when I study the Blasters. Lu Ke said with a smile, "However, you can have a meeting with the wide receiver team first, and we will see what will happen when the time comes." Lu Ke and Jean walked all the way to the elevator, "Have you started training with the ball?" ”

"Yes, it started last week. However, the feel was very ordinary, so I went back to the pool to do the toss and catch......" Jean and Lu Ke said as they walked, entered the office building, and ascended towards the player's conference room floor.

"Ding."

When the elevator arrives, you can hear the sound of laughter and laughter in the corridor echoing, just like the corridor at the end of middle school in the past, chatting, playing, playing ball, eating, and studying in a daze...... There are all kinds of people, revealing a sense of vitality.

The conference room on the rest day is still lively, less restrained and nervous during the preparation period, indoor and outdoor are more relaxed and more casual, the figures of the players are scattered in different corners of the line of sight, and the playground corridor during the break of high school can't help but come to mind.

"Hey, Bambi!"

The players greeted Lu Ke one after another, and then Joe Stanley, who was leaning on the door of the conference room of the online guard team, began to shout in a suffrage, "It's rare, Bambi actually appeared now, it seems that he is hiding in the gentle country to enjoy a good time, so he is reluctant to come to the training base." ”

Of course, Stanley was joking, and Lu Ke also responded in the form of a joke.

"Of course, I'm a family man, unlike you, who deliberately left the house just to avoid the tigress at home, and obviously the private life in the bedroom is not going well." A teasing rebuttal at his fingertips immediately made everyone around him start roaring and coaxing, and Lu Ke could easily make Stanley embarrassed.

Stanley shook his head again and again and waved his hand to show his helplessness and innocence, but at this time, he was at a loss, and finally could only raise his hand in surrender, "I was wrong, Bambi, Skywalker, I was wrong, I shouldn't have provoked casually, I was frivolous, all because our defense captain returned, and I was obviously a little hot-headed." ”

"Patrick is back?" Jean's eyes widened and he let out a cheer of surprise. Although he was a member of the attacking team, he had gradually developed a habit of always feeling weird if he didn't see three captains on the field every game.

"Ted! Wow, Ted is back on the team, too! Stanley only noticed Jean at this time, and made an extremely pompous expression, "Now our offensive weapons are about to form a whole body?" Is this the first time in three months? All the weapons are equipped, wow, the waterfowl need to be vigilant. ”

The Waterfowl are the nickname for the Seattle Seahawks within the San Francisco 49ers, and the other two closest rivals are the Redbirds and the Sheep.

Jean scratched his head, not knowing how to respond.

In the midst of the commotion, it was Lu Ke who opened his mouth to help clear the siege, "How is Patrick's state?" It brought the topic back on track.

Lu Ke did not show surprise or surprise, because Jeep Kleist had already informed him that Willis and Jean could return smoothly this week.

Competitive form aside, but after more than half a season, the San Francisco 49ers finally have a full team, and the 53-man roster has finally been unsealed, at least mentally, they are now ready to go all out, and their morale has reached a new high.

Can this be regarded as a tube of chicken blood?

"You can ask me directly in person." Willis walked out of the linebacker's office, his healthy face and bright eyes showing his good state.

Although he knew that Willis was about to return to the team, what he saw with his own eyes was still different.

In the last game against the Tampa Bay Pirates, Willis was carried off the field on a stretcher, there was hardly any blood visible on his sweaty cheeks, his pale and weak face seemed to be visibly falling apart, and the sharp pain made a deep furrow between his eyebrows, but Willis still showed a big smile, although the smile became hideous because of the pain, he still did not forget the handover of duties:

"Hey, Bambi, the rest of the title defense journey may require you to lead the team with David, and I may be sorry to be absent."

The despair at that moment, hidden behind the smile, became more and more bitter and sad, staying in Lu Ke's mind for a long time, and always lingering.

Until now.

Seeing the healthy and intact Willis again, and seeing the tall and strong Willis again, the unknown uneasiness hidden in Lu Ke's heart quietly calmed down, he showed a smile at Willis, took the initiative to step forward, and gave Willis a welcome hug, "Remember?" Nine say you will never walk alone. Welcome back to the team. ”

Such a plain and simple sentence almost made Willis fall apart, he clearly knew how much effort Lu Ke and other teammates had put in in order to get to the finals of the federation, and they did not leave any of their teammates behind after all, gritting their teeth and persevering until the completion of the San Francisco 49ers.

"Well done." Willis patted Lu Ke on the shoulder, "From now on, it's our turn to work together, remember?" We have one more commitment to fulfill. 2k reading network
