The entire Candlestick Stadium was in a state of noise.

The buzzing sound couldn't piece together a single exact word at all, it seemed to be just a moan/moan of pain, a desperate struggle, and an angry outlet, the focus and focus all spread out, and when you looked at it, only a large hazy halo remained, unable to capture a specific image at all, and seemed to have temporarily lost the ability to think.

Ryan Baldwin finally couldn't hold it anymore, he fell into the wheelchair, his legs and knees were shaking violently, and the whole person was as if he had just been salvaged from the hot spring, and there was no blood at all in embarrassment, not so much anger as regret, irrepressible regret firmly grasped the heart, tightened, tightened, and finally gasped.

And so it ended.

The season that witnessed the resurgence of the San Francisco 49ers came to an abrupt end, standing on the stage of the National League finals, struggling to the last moment, but after all, it still fell short and failed to move forward. The 2011 season, which belongs to the 49ers, is over.

Or is their road to re-emergence over?

Every rugby fan knows that every team is bound to face intense pain in every offseason because of the existence of the hard salary cap and injuries caused by strong confrontations, and it is definitely not easy to continue the good form of the previous season after the start of the new season. Perhaps, it is only normal for teams that were 10 wins last season to fall to the bottom of the division the next season.

What's more, with such a young team as the San Francisco 49ers, injuries, status, locker room and other problems are all like time bombs. That's what happened in this game. So, what about next season? Will they be able to stay strong? Will they be able to hit the Super Bowl again?

In an instant, Ryan was also in a trance.

The blurred vision fell on the center of the court, where the quarterbacks of the two teams were talking, and under the high attention of the camera, the two quarterbacks approached each other, whispering in their ears, friendly and intimate, and after talking for a long time, they parted and walked to their respective teams.

The figure in the red jersey did not leave, but walked to all corners of the court.

The red figures reluctantly stayed on the court, sitting or lying, standing or walking, the dazed and painful outlined by the shoulder lines looming in the bright spots, but after all, they couldn't accept the fact of such a failure, and time seemed to be eternally frozen in the moment of defeat.

Then, the fourteen walked up to each of his teammates, hugged them, whispered to each other, and took the initiative to pull them up one by one, not just rookie players, but also veterans of the team, every player in the true sense of the word, which reminded Ryan of the story Jonathan told him: the rookie quarterback who took the initiative to call his teammates up after the loss in the fourth week of the regular season.

In a trance, the fourteenth on the court became the sixteenth, and Joe Montana, who wore the sixteenth jersey to create the San Francisco dynasty, shouldered the weight of the entire team, leading them forward step by step, and the seemingly thin and short back became the greatest pride in the history of San Francisco.

In the blink of an eye, No. 16 became No. 14 again, the Lu Ke who wore the No. 14 red and gold jersey and ignited the hope of San Francisco's recovery, with black hair, black eyes and yellow skin, but red and gold blood flowing in his veins, indomitable and never giving up to guide the time to victory, is reawakening the soul of San Francisco.

At this moment, the sky overshadowed the whole afternoon, and suddenly it cleared.

Although this is a night game, the definition of night is based on the East Coast time, the game that started at 3:30 p.m. West Coast time, and now just after 7:20 p.m., the remaining glimmer of the sunset, through the layers of fog, dyed the smoky blue sky a magnificent red, before nightfall, instantly blooming with proud light, and finally sprinkling the entire stadium mightily.

Ryan's eyes were always on Fourteen's back, and he knew that was where the hope was!

Looking around, the entire Candlestick Stadium was in a state of confusion and restlessness, no one left, but no one reacted, the suppressed and dull restlessness was secretly surging, suppressed in the chest, unable to vent or discharge.

Ryan propped his hands on the wheelchair, gritted his teeth, and staggered back to his feet, it was not an easy task, his legs were shaking violently, every movement consumed all his strength, the pain and soreness could not be described in words, but Ryan did not give up.

The muscles all over his body began to tremble, and Jonathan finally noticed Ryan's abnormality at this time, and tried to reach out his hands to help, but Ryan shook his head firmly and refused, he needed to rely on his own strength to do it-

Yes, they failed and lost this Nations League final; But they hit a 65-yard Lucky Mary to equalize the game late and almost regain their grip on the victory, just by a fraction of a second, like a zero-second strike in the tenth week of the regular season.

Even though they lost the game, they were not losers.

Ryan stood up, his chin raised high, his hoarse throat barely sounding, but he never gave up, shouting word by word, "We're 49!" We are warriors! ”

At the start of the season, no one thought they would be able to rise again; Before the playoffs, no one was optimistic about their future; Before the last eleven seconds, no one thought they could finish Hail Mary. But, they all came true!

"We are! 49 people! We are! Warrior! ”

Ryan's shout was so faint, but so firm, more and more affirmative, more and more hot, his eyes fell firmly on the figure of the fourteenth on the court, shouting and shouting, the adrenaline began to stir again, and the slightly hot eye sockets began to blur again, but this time it was not because of sadness and regret, but because of joy.

Because he knew that they had finally found that glimmer of hope!

Jonathan Baldwin stood next to him, choked up, his nose was sore, and his tears were about to fall, but he finally held back and projected along his brother's line of sight, and then saw Lu Ke who was hugging Willis, the captain of the offensive team and the captain of the defense team met again, and Akens was standing next to him.

The emotions in his chest boiled again.

So, Jonathan joined Ryan, "We are! 49 people! We are! Warrior! ”

……

"Bambi, I'm sorry." Willis said word for word, trying his best to suppress his emotions. The defensive group, after all, the defensive group made a mistake, they were not able to stop the opponent, and they were not even able to win the opportunity for Lu Ke to play.

Lu Ke patted Willis on the back fiercely, "Please, please don't be so sensational, I may not be able to bear it." "He's just a rookie quarterback, and he wouldn't have gotten to where he is without the help and support of the team, and in the end it's a shame, but everyone did their best.

As he spoke, Lu Ke's eyes also reddened slightly, but then he laughed loudly and said heartily, "We still have next season, let's talk about it now, you cover for us, and we charge for you, how about it?" Is this deal a good deal? ”

Next season.

Willis just gritted his teeth and couldn't speak, and then he could clearly feel the power of Lu Ke's heavy beating on his back, as if urging him to answer, Willis couldn't help but laugh dumbly, "It's a good deal, then it's decided!" ”

Let go of Willis, and then Lu Ke saw Akens standing next to him.

Akens didn't speak, just shook his head helplessly.

Despite scoring a late bonus to equalize; But, who knows? Did the missed free kick become the biggest regret of his career? Perhaps, just like that, he completely missed the Super Bowl championship ring, is this his fate?

"David, do we still have a chance to work together? If you don't choose to retire, I still need you. You know, after all, I don't know a lot of good kickers. Lu Ke's joke made Akens laugh helplessly.

This year, Arkens is thirty-eight years old. There is really not much left before retirement.

Akens didn't answer, just shook his head, patted Lu Ke's arm, and changed the topic, "You go over and take a look at Aldon, that young man has completely collapsed, and he thinks it's all his fault." Rest assured, I'm fine, really, I'm fine. ”

Lu Ke sighed lightly and was about to take a step, when he heard a gentle commotion echoing in the candlestick court, which was originally just a small sound, and then like a trickle, it gradually gathered together, becoming a river and a sea-

"We are! 49 people! We are! Warrior! ”

"We are! 49 people! We are! Warrior! ”

Raising his head, the silent sea of red in the Candlestick Stadium gradually began to recover, 70,000 spectator seats, at this time was still full, everyone stood up one after another, forming an irregular wave, the mighty and powerful force overwhelmingly rendered, the large area of gorgeous sunset above the head seemed to be eclipsed, the whole world was dyed bright red, dazzling and dazzling.

Then, in the line of sight, you can see a row of small figures, holding the flag high, around the passage on the inside of the stadium began to run, everywhere they went, the audience raised their hands one after another, creating a spectacular human wave effect, the momentum of the surge, the flag is even more windwind, hunting.

The king of the Bay Area!
