Sun Tongfei took out his mobile phone, faced the corner of the stadium and the opposite stand, the camera aimed at the back of No. 14, pressed the shutter, and captured the moment when the red light and shadow boiled in the audience. This was his debut at an NFL game, as a fan spectator, with a big dream of being able to stand on the court one day, and his heart was full of excitement and impassionedness.

Subsequently, Sun Tongfei posted this photo in the group, ignoring the serial screen prompt sound of Ding Ding Ding message, adjusted the mobile phone to silent, and joined the cheers of the audience again, Yin Yin was looking forward to a wonderful encounter, San Francisco 49ers vs. New York Giants, just to make up for it, I couldn't suppress the surge of emotions.

At this moment, Sun Tongfei is not the only audience who is looking forward to a wonderful matchup, the entire league, including the "in-league" analysts and commentators, everyone is looking forward to a sparkling encounter, looking forward to an unpredictable matchup, reproducing the classics of last season's league finals, and even Teddy and Kirk in the studio have expressed their expectations.

If you want, you can list the reasons why this game is worth watching, twenty or thirty, and last season's two meetings between the two teams broke everyone's expectations and brought about a great matchup that is worth revisiting again and again, and this time, the discussion on social media was completely off the table before the game officially started.

But after the end of the first half, people were doomed to disappointment. Just like standing at the mouth of the rabbit hole in Alice's Wonderland, after the dream is all gone, I return to the rabbit hole in a waking state, but I only see a swarthy, dirty hole, no beautiful fantasy world, no bizarre adventure life, nothing.

"Kirk, in your opinion, was the first half an accident? Or is it disappointing? After Teddy finished a brief summary, he threw the initiative on the topic to his partner.

"It's not an accident. At the same time, it is not a disappointment. ”

Kirk's attitude was much more relaxed than expected, completely devoid of the sighing and suffocating slump of the first half of the game, and responded with a relatively neutral attitude.

"Strictly speaking, the New York giants are the defending champions and have been in good form in the first five games of the season, losing two games by a touchdown margin, and they are still in contention for the title this season; Moreover, every meeting between the New York Giants and the San Francisco 49ers is always full of countless accidents, and this game so far cannot be regarded as completely unexpected. ”

Kirk concluded, and then Teddy followed up with a guide, "So how did the current situation come about?" Let's start with the New York Giants' offensive end and the San Francisco 49ers' defensive end. The San Francisco 49ers' defensive team has been particularly good in the past five games, but today the first half was completely unleashed. ”

"Personally, I don't think the San Francisco 49ers defense is doing badly, they just haven't been able to play a corresponding role in one area, and that's the quarterback raid strategy.

In this game, the New York Giants' offensive forward performance was really eye-catching, and the attacking front, which had been frequently criticized in the past few weeks, handed over an absolute professional bowl-level pocket protection today, and only released one sack in the first half, which gave Eli Manning enough time to complete the observation and passing, which is undoubtedly an important reason for the huge gap between the performance of the two teams.

In addition, the New York Giants' professional bowl running back Ahmed Bradshaw and rookie running back David Wilson were undoubtedly the biggest highlights of the game, as the two running backs took turns attacking the opposing defensive team and combined for a 99-yard run in the first half alone, which was also the key to the first half of the game.

Combined with wide receiver Victor Cruz's three three-gear transitions, Eli Manning's ability to rely on his ability to deliver the ball hard, almost single-handedly reversed three strikeouts.

In other words, the San Francisco 49ers' defensive team lacked a bit of luck in the first half, and if those four third-gear transitions could have pulled the advantage by a fraction of a second, the situation would have been very different.

But there's no denying that both the defensive front line and linebacks will have to pick up their tempo and form to put more pressure on the opposition's attacking team, otherwise the game will only get more difficult, and Eli Manning won't need to risk passing the ball at all, just need to use Bradshaw and Wilson to take turns attacking and be able to firmly grasp the advantage. ”

There was plenty of time at halftime, so Kirk's commentary was more detailed, giving a comprehensive review of the New York Giants' offensive team and the San Francisco 49ers' defensive group.

Teddy nodded in agreement, "Aldon Smith was almost on the verge of making that interception, but unfortunately the ball slipped out of his fingertips at the last minute, and it was just a pass that didn't finish, otherwise it might have been completely different." In the first half, the San Francisco 49ers' defensive team worked very hard, but they did lack a little luck, or rather, the details of defensive intensity and rhythm were not grasped enough, which led to the current situation. ”

"So, what about the San Francisco 49ers' offensive group and the New York giants' defensive group?" Teddy continued with the summary analysis of the first half, "So far in the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers have the firepower of the league as a strong offensive group, what do you think of the performance in the first half today? ”

"Actually, I think the biggest reason why the score is so different at midfield is that the attacking team is not in a stable state today. Or rather, a little bit of luck. Kirk showed a wry smile, and after thinking about it seriously, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, "In the first half alone, the San Francisco 49ers' receivers had five butter hands, five times!" ”

In any professional game, low-level mistakes such as the butter hand must be avoided.

Many teams and coaches evaluate whether they are easy to catch and get rid of the ball when evaluating the outside receiver, which is one of the most important items, and even one of the irreplaceable items. Because the quarterback finally completed the pass with great difficulty, and the wide receiver successfully tore out the gap to complete the catch, but was unable to complete the football control, which was definitely a serious blow to the offensive team.

Generally speaking, the league's definition of "easy to catch and get off the ball" is specifically to mean that a wide receiver cannot complete the control of the football in the event of a defensive player hitting a head-on confrontation.

In other words, the team's requirement for a wide receiver is to receive the ball smoothly under impact. Then you can imagine how hateful the butter hands that appear without any physical confrontation!

In fact, two or three butter hands in a game are enough to make people complain, which is definitely a serious blow to the passing efficiency of the quarterback; But in today's game, the San Francisco 49ers had a full five butter hands, and this is the first half of the stats, which is definitely eye-popping.

"Michael Crabtree showed up twice, Ted Jean showed up once, Vernon Davis showed up once, and even Logan Newman showed up once. Three of these butter hands appeared in the crucial three-gear transition, which was a serious blow to Lu Ke's offensive efficiency, and it was also an important reason why the San Francisco 49ers' offense was slow to burst into corresponding power in the first half. ”

Even if Lu Ke passes the ball accurately, observes carefully, and reads accurately, after completing the pass, the receiving player has a butter hand, then Lu Ke can only look at the ball and sigh and be helpless.

"We can only be thankful that five butter hands still didn't lead to interceptions, otherwise the game would have been even more ugly." Kirk still didn't hold back the desire to complain, and expressed his dissatisfaction bluntly, but then changed the tone and pointed the finger at the running back, which was more problematic today.

"Although there were five butter hands, the real problems of the San Francisco 49ers' offensive team today were in two parts: first, fouls, they had eight fouls in the first half, and they were fouled for a total of 60 yards, which seriously curbed the offensive efficiency; Second, the running back was inefficient, which also became the fatal wound of the first half.

Marcus Lynch, Frank Goyle, and RaMichael James, all three running backs were really worrying in their advancing efficiency, running the ball seventeen times throughout the first half, but only advancing for 41 yards, an average of only 2.4 yards per advance, which is terrible, which is simply terrible.

It's important to note that the San Francisco 49ers have been able to put in such a spectacular offensive performance over the past five weeks has been a key part of the pass-and-run balance, with a good run-and-run performance that has kept the ground defence at bay and created more space for passing, which is an integral part of the offensive team.

But now the running ball is completely dumb, not only has it not been able to help, but it has also repeatedly put the team in a three-stop long yardage dilemma, and all the pressure is focused on the passing offense, which is a serious drag on the offensive efficiency of the San Francisco 49ers.

The reason why I say that the performance of the San Francisco 49ers is not disappointing, and the score is the best proof -

Despite the lack of running support, despite the appearance of five butter hands, Lu Ke still eliminated all difficulties and dangers, led the team to continue to advance, and did not let the New York Giants completely pull the score away. It's absolutely incredible, and we can already see the team's attacking style maturing.

The problem now is that it's not enough. The San Francisco 49ers will have to regain their rhythm and form in the second half if they want to win the game. The New York giants won't give up their advantage easily, and the San Francisco 49ers won't easily throw in the towel, which means that the second half will be very exciting! ”

The second half is about to begin, and the score on the field is "14:28", with the home team in front and the away team behind.
