"Beep. Beep. Beep. ”

"It's over."

Even in the final wave of attacks, Lu Ke still tried to extend the winning momentum, and he challenged the 55-yard Wanfu Mary; At the same time, we can also note that Lu Ke tried to use Ted Jean and Jon Baldwin to complete the pick-and-roll cover, and unexpectedly chose Ankuang Boulding as a passing target, hoping to create more possibilities for Wanfu Mary. ”

"With Logan Newman suspended and Vernon Davis leaving the court with an unexpected concussion, Lu Ke really doesn't have many options."

"Unfortunately, the New Orleans Saints defense didn't get distracted and kept a firm eye on Boulding; In addition, Lu Ke's passing arc this time was also a little outrageous, off the established track, Boulding worked hard, he worked very hard, trying to complete this catch, but judging from the results, the distance between him and rugby was a little far away. ”

"Ten months ago, on this field at the Mercedes-Benz Super Dome, we witnessed the farthest physical victory in Super Bowl history, and Lu Ke led the team to complete a 29-point super comeback with his indomitable will to reach the Super Bowl! And it was a perfect season in one go. ”

Ten months later, it was still the same field, but this time, Lu Ke's Wanfu Mary lacked a bit of crosshair, and he also lacked a little luck, and he was not able to lead the team to complete the comeback again. In the strong matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and the New Orleans Saints, San Francisco, who finally played away, lost the game 20:27, ending their five-game winning streak; New Orleans, meanwhile, is unbeaten at home this season. ”

After passing the ball, Lu Ke knew that there was no more.

After the full burst of strength, the muscles of the right arm twitched slightly, accompanied by a dull pain.

The pain of a drizzle is secondary, almost negligible in a state of full concentration on the game; However, the spasm of the muscles led to a decrease in the control of the passing touch, and the moment of the shot, he tried his best to control it with the strength of his wrist, but he still failed to catch it, and the control of the entire arc and angle did not meet Lu Ke's expectations.

After the rugby ball was out of his hands, Lu Ke realized that Wanfu Mary could not be teleported in place.

But Lu Ke still didn't give up, staring at the rugby ball with a faint hope, until the rugby ball fell to the ground to form a dead ball, and then he retracted his gaze unwillingly.

Lost.

The game, which was entangled all over the court but never been able to pull away, still lost after all.

In the eleventh week of the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers traveled to challenge the New Orleans Saints, which was the third meeting between the two teams in the past three seasons; And in the Super Bowl in early February this year, Lu Ke also won the first championship ring of his career at the Mercedes-Benz Super Dome, and the relationship between them is not shallow.

The six-three San Francisco 49ers faced the New Orleans Saints, who were seven wins and two losses this season, and coupled with the strong matchup of "Lu Ke VS Briss", the attention of this game was absolutely off the charts.

After last year's trough, head coach Sean Payton returned from suspension, and this season's New Orleans Saints are immediately back in the ranks of top contenders -

The new season started with five straight wins in the regular season, and then suffered the first loss of the season in an encounter with the New England Patriots, and then entered the offseason; After returning from a week's rest, they comfortably beat Buffalo Bills, lost to the New York Jets in a surprise shock, and beat the Dallas Cowboys at home.

They are unbeaten at home so far this season.

So far, Lu Ke has faced the New Orleans Saints led by Drew Bliss three times in his career, winning all three games! This is definitely a proud record! But the New Orleans Saints have been on a strong comeback this season, with the sparks of Sean Payton and Drew Brice still at the heart of the team, and by the halfway point of the season, they are among the favourites to win the title.

The San Francisco 49ers are up against one such team – after a strong five-game winning streak, the defending champions will face a real tough opponent, with San Francisco trying to extend their winning streak and New Orleans trying to extend their unbeaten home streak, a tough test for both sides and the best test of the defending champions' overall form.

The course of the game also proves this.

The two sides have never been able to open the gap, and the anxiety of the game can be seen from the score, and the gap has always remained within the range of a touchdown -

The New Orleans Saints defense kept a clean sheet in the first quarter, while the San Francisco 49ers defense kept a clean sheet in the third quarter. New Orleans and San Francisco both alternated leads at least twice, and until four minutes of the fourth quarter remained, the two sides were still in a "20-20" scorching state.

At the crucial moment, Drew Bryss managed to take control of the situation, leading the home team's offensive group and completing a beautiful wave of advancement, not only draining the game time to only 47 seconds, but also completing an incredible pass touchdown in the difficult situation of the third long-yard offense, and once again exceeded the score with absolute strength, "27:20".

In the final stage, Lu Ke is still trying to turn the tide, just like in the past two seasons, but ...... This time he was not able to make it.

Standing in place, Lu Ke couldn't tell what it was like, and all the thoughts came to his mind one after another, and he couldn't accurately distinguish them for a while.

Strictly speaking, since losing the Nations League final last season, this is the first game that Lu Ke has lost as a starter. Just like the San Francisco 49ers who completed a perfect season, no one can win forever, and defeat will come sooner or later; More importantly, when will the winning streak stop, and whether it will be able to bounce back and find the key to victory again after stopping the winning streak.

In fact, it ended a little earlier than expected.

In the second week of the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers suffered a heavy defeat to fellow rivals Seattle Seahawks, ending their 20-game winning streak across the season.

Still, it was a game that was started by Colin Kaepernick, not by Luke. When the San Francisco 49ers ended their winning streak, all eyes fell on Lu Ke, not just the nine, but all the analysts, commentators and journalists:

Everyone is talking about when Lu Ke will end his winning streak? Every game is focused on how long Lu Ke's winning streak miracle can continue? Everyone is looking forward to what kind of height Lu Ke's energy can support the team to go, and what kind of history will it write?

Will the team that ends Luke's winning streak be the Houston Texans? Will it be the Arizona Cardinals? …… Will it be a Carolina Panther? This routine, repeated every week, finally came this week—will it be the New Orleans Saints?

Unconsciously, this pressure builds up little by little.

Lu Ke always thought that he didn't care and didn't care, those remarks would not have any impact on him, and every game would not change much: go on the court, go all out to win, fight until the last moment of the game, it's that simple! But at this moment, the defeat came so suddenly, sighs and frustration came surgingly, drowning him in an instant, and the bitterness in his mouth couldn't distinguish the taste at all, and at a certain moment, it seemed that he couldn't breathe.

He realized that in fact, the pressure had always existed, hidden deep in the depths of his soul, and the burden was slowly pouring down, slowly and slowly bending his spine, like a spring, either completely destroyed or bottomed out. Now, the winning streak has finally come to a halt and all the pressure has vanished.

No one can win forever.

Failure is also a part of life.

Lu Ke understands these paths, understands them all, understands them deeply; But...... The taste of failure is still so bad.

When the pressure of the winning streak was finally released, for a moment, he was relieved, and it seemed that the whole person was relaxed, and he was reborn again, as light as a swallow, and the feeling was difficult to describe in words, just like diving under the sea-

The blue and deep ocean makes people linger and wander in it, almost not wanting to leave; But those invisible water pressures are everywhere, putting pressure on the body all the time. Little by little, little by little, and then, finally, leaving the bottom of the sea, piercing through the water, and breathing fresh air again, instead of the oxygen in the oxygen cylinder, the whole world suddenly changed and took on a completely different appearance, as if everything had become different, and the invisible and untouchable pressures were all gone, and all the pores of the body were opened, and they breathed to their heart's content.

Instantly, relieved.

However, this feeling of pleasure only lasted for a moment, and then the endless blue of the ocean resurfaced in my mind, and I couldn't wait to return to the depths of the ocean again, as if I was returning to the arms of Mother Earth to roam freely, and people couldn't help but indulge in it.

The same is true now.

The ease of relief was fleeting, and then the dazedness came - defeat, and then what?

Then, a small wound began to pull the heart, originally just a little pain, but the pain spread faster and faster, more and more fierce, in the blink of an eye began to gnaw at the heart, swept in an instant, split the head and face smashed down, unwilling and annoyed like a midsummer rainstorm, without warning, unreasonable pouring down.

The pain of defeat, so clear and so violent, once again awakened the high fighting spirit in Lu Ke's heart after a long absence.

He really, really really doesn't like to lose!

More precisely, he really misses victory! It's like missing the sea when you're diving, and every cell of your body is thinking about victory.

"Damn it!" Lu Ke cursed viciously, he really hated this feeling, it was terrible.
