465 Touchstone

The San Francisco 49ers' home clean sheet against the visiting St. Louis Rams returned to the winning track, but this did not frustrate Charles Davis as before, and his arrogance was not affected in the slightest, and he expressed his disdain and disdain strongly and firmly.

Such a gesture made Spencer Larson, who was sitting opposite, cry and laugh.

There is a kind of person who always has the ability to ignore the victory and magnify the defeat.

The team has won, and if it is a hearty victory, it is that the opponent is too weak; If it's a strong against the strong, it's luck.

The team ushered in a defeat, and if it was a narrow defeat, it was a slight deviation caused by insufficient hardware strength; If it is a failure of total collapse, it is the result of taking it for granted.

To put it simply, this team is rubbish, but it is not strong. In Charles's eyes, the San Francisco 49ers are such a team, no matter what, if it doesn't like it, it's not pleasing to the eye, it's just unreasonable and vexatious.

But Spencer didn't intend to let Charles continue to talk nonsense, he leaned forward slightly, and said solemnly, "Are you sure?" Just addition and subtraction? Or is it within a hundred? Do we need to review the San Francisco 49ers' offensive stats now? Is there any more data on Lu Ke? ”

Now, the San Francisco 49ers' offensive group is still second in the league. Even after two defeats, a series of statistics in the offensive group are still eye-catching, only behind the Green Bay Packers, and the scoring ability, offensive efficiency, etc. are above 10,000 people under one person.

Similarly, Lu Ke is still one of the league's most outstanding quarterbacks, with touchdowns, pass completion rate and other related statistics only behind Aaron Rodgers; Passing yards, passing attempts, and other related stats are ranked behind Aaron Rodgers and Drew Bliss, which is extremely impressive.

In other words, the San Francisco 49ers still have the league's top offensive quality.

In the face of Spencer's "provocation", Charles did not panic, but directly fought back without showing weakness, "Of course there is no problem." So, let's take a look at the game against the Cardinals first, and then look at the game against the Crows, how about that? If we're going to talk about data, we have to talk about it holistically, don't we? ”

That confident posture choked Spencer to death, which immediately made Charles satisfied.

Spencer has been going toe-to-toe with him throughout the season, and most of the time Charles has fallen behind, not taking advantage of it at all, and now that he finally got the opportunity, he naturally won't let it go easily. So, Charles got cheap and sold well, and continued to gush:

"We don't need to argue about these meaningless things, data is dead, people are alive, let's see the actual situation."

Charles put on a fair and fair posture, as if to say, let's talk about things; But in the same situation, before the 49ers lost two in a row, he was never willing to "just talk about things".

"It's not a bragging rights win against the St. Louis Rams, and I personally don't have any grievances against the Rams, but this season, they've been in terrible form, the other nine teams have done the same, and now the 49ers are just joining them......

"Jesus Christ!" Spencer grabbed his hair in disbelief, "That's your excuse?" Defeated the Lions, defeated the Giants, and then lost to the Ravens, and there were three matches in a close matchup, but you just clung to a loss, refused to let go, and quibbled? ”

Spencer was now smiling angrily, with incredible amazement and helplessness written on his face, and laughed hehehe, "And then you think that these victories are not enough to prove the excellence of the 49ers and the excellence of Lu Ke?" That's your point, that's your evidence, and then according to your argument, the New England Patriots' all-win season doesn't make any sense at all, because they beat the same team that season, the Cincinnati Tigers, the Miami Dolphins, the Buffalo Bills, and so on. ”

As he spoke, Spencer became excited, and he only felt that Charles was really unreasonable.

In stark contrast, it was Charles's steadyness, "Calm, Spencer, calm." ”

Now, Charles is the one who has the initiative to speak, calm and relaxed, advancing and retreating freely, and those days of losing and retreating have become a thing of the past, "I mean, all the strong teams are through one hard battle after another, and now this young 49 team still needs to prove itself, and the Rams? It's definitely not the best option. ”

Then, Charles also raised his hands and slowly pressed them down, signaling everyone to calm down. The mocking and contemptuous eyes, full of firepower, attacked the audience indiscriminately, and even the other analysts and commentators couldn't cry or laugh.

"So, what other opponents do they need to beat? According to you, only by winning the Super Bowl can they prove that they are excellent. Spencer directly cut off Charles's complaints, and attacked back with full firepower-

Rookie quarterback won the Super Bowl in his rookie season? It's a fantasy that hasn't happened in the entire history of the league, and Ben Rothslisberg, Kurt Warner, Tom Brady don't all fit that way.

Charles also felt the aggressiveness in Spencer's words, but he did not show weakness, straightened his waist, and said in a loud voice, "For example, this week's opponent, the Arizona Cardinals, gets up from where he falls; For example, next week's opponent, the Pittsburgh Steelers, that's the real playoff intensity, that's the real confrontation. ”

Those words full of confidence are loud and sonorous!

This season, the San Francisco 49ers' schedule is indeed thrilling, and the seemingly ordinary opponents have played well this year; And the opponent, who was already strong, is still in excellent form this year.

With four weeks to go until the end of the regular season, the 49ers' four opponents are the Arizona Cardinals, Pittsburgh Steelers, Seattle Seahawks and St. Louis Rams.

With the exception of the Rams, who are not to be feared overall, the other three teams are definitely not to be taken lightly.

The Cardinals, who capsized in the gutter two weeks ago, are about to have a real revenge on the road; And now the Cardinals, who are doing their best for the playoff spots, will definitely not be relentless, striving to kill their opponents twice, and at the same time, step on the shoulders of their rivals in the same district to impact the playoffs.

The Steelers, needless to say, are still one of the strongest teams in the American League this year, and their strength is on par with the Ravens; At the same time, this game will be a Monday night game, second only to the Thursday night game on the national live broadcast stage.

The Seahawks, whose season form can only be described as mediocre, but after the matchup in the first week of the regular season, even if they miss the playoffs, the Seahawks are bound to not let the 49ers have a better time on their home court - by the way, in this game, the 49ers are about to go to the league's famous Devil's home court, Century Chain Stadium.

Even the Rams, the nickname of the "Giant Killers" are definitely not just words, and anything is possible in a divisional civil war.

This is a schedule full of endless dangers, Charles's idea is well-founded, as long as the 49ers' form fluctuates slightly, and the season ends with a four-game losing streak, then whether they can enter the playoffs must depend on the face of the Cardinals, who are currently in second place in the division.

Charles showed a professional posture and began to analyze, "Judging from the past few games, the San Francisco 49ers' offensive team does not have the ability to fight strongly, and their changeable tactics have indeed made many teams suffer, but now with the advancement of the season, the secret is gradually no longer a secret, and their weaknesses have been exposed." ”

"As long as the opponent is tough enough in the front court and exerts enough pressure, then the lightness and agility of the 49ers will be completely contained, and the space to play will be completely lost, and the embarrassment of the offensive front line is only one of the aspects, and the most important thing is that Lu Ke will be fully compressed in terms of movement foot, physical fitness, and passing time, and will be completely lost in his pocket."

During the season, Lu Ke seemed to be in control of the overall situation, but the weakness of talent choked his throat. Previously, other teams were tied down due to unfamiliarity, which made him play to his strengths and avoid weaknesses and successfully occupy a place on the field; But now that other teams are starting to figure out his routine, the weaknesses are completely magnified. ”

Charles put his hands down heavily, his eyes brightened, "I said before that Lu Ke is not a good quarterback, not even a qualified quarterback, his talent is destined not to fit this court." The Cardinals did it, the Ravens did it, and now that he was completely exposed to the microscope of the League, the mystery of Eastern Kung Fu no longer worked. ”

"The Rams lost the game, and that's a shackle to the overall strength. But the next Cardinals and Steelers will not easily let go of Lu Ke and his offensive group. Charles came to his conclusion, "In my opinion, it was still a safer decision to choose Alex Smith, I don't know what the hell was the reason for Jim Hubble, didn't change the quarterback, missed the Rams' game, and next faced the Cardinals, it should be the perfect time......

The chatter, the rambling, the words sounded so harsh, and they were said over and over again throughout the season, changing the soup without changing the medicine, it made people want to roll their eyes.

To sum up, in fact, Charles's meaning couldn't be simpler and more obvious-

After two consecutive defeats, the Rams are not enough to be evidence that the 49ers have returned to the track, and Lu Ke is still not the right choice for the team, even if he has played a wonderful season, it is still not enough to prove his strength; Every game that follows is a battle for a playoff spot, and the intensity of each game is different, and that's the real test.

Whether the San Francisco 49ers have real power or are a paper tiger will be known in the next two weeks.
