As of the end of the fourteenth week of the regular season, 12 of the 16 teams still maintain the hope of making the playoffs, and it is not just a theoretical possibility, but a real loss that may change the pattern of the playoffs.

Even three of the four teams currently missing out on the playoffs are from last season's playoff teams, and who can be sure that they won't burst out in a desperate situation and then pull the current leaders off guard? Then the National League playoff landscape will be even more chaotic. That's the fun part.

Therefore, no team dares to take it lightly, and no team can take the opponent lightly, and the slightest negligence may capsize in the gutter. In the American League, the occasional capsizing of a game or two seems to be harmless; But in the National League, a single accident can bury an entire season's hard work on a high-altitude tightrope.

In the fifteenth week of the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers played against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers against this background.

On one side is the defending champion who has recovered in real strength, and on the other side is the fish belly team that continues to be in a slump; With the fourth-seeded team vying for the top four seeds in the playoffs on one side and the vice-president contenders for the season's basic reimbursement on the other side, the suspense seems to have been lackluster, and all the odds are unanimously optimistic that the San Francisco 49ers will continue their winning streak against the Tampa Bay Pirates in the away cabinet.

But is it really that simple?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a four-nine-loss record this season, which is even better than the Atlanta Falcons and the Washington Redskins, and is only one win behind the New York Giants; In addition, it is worth noting that in the ninth week of the regular season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers forced the Seattle Seahawks, who are unbeatable this season, into overtime on the road, and fought until the last minute in overtime, only to lose the game with a "27-24", just a free kick disadvantage.

Since this game, the Tampa Bay Pirates seem to have opened up the second line, and the defense has fully found its senses, and in the next five games, the excellent record of winning and losing one - in other words, starting the 2013 season with an eight-game losing streak, and now the Tampa Bay Bucrates are confirmed to miss the playoffs, but they have found their groove through the game against the Seattle Seahawks, and they have been reborn, and all four wins of the season have come after the ninth week of the regular season.

The strong upward momentum is definitely not to be drunk!

Does this story sound familiar? Aside from missing out on the playoffs, that's what professional analysts and commentators in the industry think of the San Francisco 49ers, isn't it? So, does anyone still think it's going to be a one-sided game?

At the very least, the San Francisco 49ers refuse to be arrogant and can't afford to be negligent and mistaken in any game right now, and a single profit can directly end the whole season, and they have traveled a long way to hold on until now, not to fall in front of the finish line, which also makes them go all out to prepare for the game and face their opponents!

Judging from the course of the game, the San Francisco 49ers, who maintained absolute attention, still easily grasped the initiative!

In the first quarter of the game, Lu Yan, who had a steady output of firepower, scored two passing touchdowns in a row, the first touchdown found Crabtree, who had just returned from injury not long ago, and completed the connection with his trademark behind-the-shoulder shadow pass, Crabtree turned and jumped when he received the rugby ball, successfully dodged the cornerback's tackle, skimmed sideways into the end area, and easily completed the touchdown of the seventeen-yard mid-pass connection.

Salek stood at the front of the end zone to complete a three-yard short pass and catch, relying on his size advantage, withstanding the opponent's guard from behind, turning and dunking under a basketball-style basket, passing through the opponent's card position, and stepping into the end zone, scoring the second passing touchdown in the red zone for the San Francisco 49ers.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' defensive team was unable to show enough intensity to contain the spread of the passing offense in the face of Lu's maturing offensive style, and even the ground defense continued to have problems, and there were major mistakes at the beginning of the second quarter, and running back Frank Goyle, who was gradually improving in form in the second half of the season, dodged two tackles in a row, drove straight in, and under the cover of his teammates, he turned a five-yard ground ball advance into a 27-yard running touchdown.

It can be clearly perceived that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the main cabinet battle are a little unable to resist the offensive of their own hands, although the team's defensive group has recovered strongly in the past five weeks, but the San Francisco 49ers have carefully studied the game video, and made targeted adjustments.

Less than halfway through the second quarter, the score had already stretched to "0:24", and so far the San Francisco 49ers have scored all four entanglements, one free kick and three touchdowns, which has really embarrassed the home team.

But the nightmare is not over.

The San Francisco 49ers' fifth entanglement still scored smoothly, and David Akons watched the trajectory of the football flight in disbelief and burst into laughter, the 55-yard free kick attempt actually went in? It was the longest free-kick goal of the season for the San Francisco 49ers, which is truly incredible for Akens, whose form continues to decline.

Faced with this situation, the Tampa Bay Pirates were also a little helpless: they had done their best, and this defense was the most successful and effective duel until the first half of the morning, they thought they were forcing their opponent to strike out and fold, but they didn't expect their opponent to complete a 55-yard free kick, so what else could they do?

That emptiness and helplessness made the home players feel the urge to laugh.

The first half was not over, and the score was already "0:27", and the Tampa Bay Pirates were not the San Francisco 49ers, and they simply did not have the ability to break out and reverse; And the San Francisco 49ers will not be careless about Jingzhou, and there is not much suspense about the outcome of this game. Everything goes in the direction of the standard ending, but the unexpected is like that, and it often comes at a slight flash.

"Clash!"

"There was a clash between the two players on the bill, V looked a little chaotic on the field, there were physical pulls and collisions between players on both sides, the situation was very tricky, the referee was trying to control the game, but the players on both sides were acting irrationally, everyone was trying to control the situation."

"There was a situation on both sides of the game, the San Francisco 49ers' star interior lineback Patrick Willis and the Tampa Bay Pirates backup running back Michael Smith (Michael-Smith) collided, Willis made a tackle when defending Michael with the ball, but both of them fell to the ground and then couldn't get up, and then there was chaos, we missed the key points, we didn't understand how it happened, and we need to go back to the footage now."

Lu Miao sat on the bench and flipped through the tactical manual, whispering to Kip Kleist about the tactical layout of the next attack, and then there was a bustling shout in his ears, which could not be distinguished because of the noise of the visiting team, but Lu Yu could clearly feel that his teammates on both sides of him were in a commotion, and he couldn't help but raise his head.

"Walter! Walter, Walter! ”

"Those damn bastards! I'm going to kill them! ”

"Shameless!"

"Walter! Where is Walter! ”

"Patrick is injured."

Panicked and angry voices staggered past his ears, and for a moment, Lu Yu felt that time was frozen in place like this.

Isn't this the mockery he imagined in his head" Pirates of Park? This doesn't have to be a stumbling block on the San Francisco 49ers' playoff journey this season and the defense of the title, and it doesn't have to be a crucial turning point for the San Francisco 49ers this season. No, it doesn't have to be like that.

The sound in his ears, the taunt in front of him, the breathing in his chest, and the temperature of the surface of his skin, all seemed to be slowed down to the extreme, and you could even see the dust slowly flying between the white jersey and the brown and red jersey, the hot air and crystal sweat distorting the focus of the whole world, and then you could see his teammates urgently walking into the stadium one by one, and a frightened and angry face beckoned him to step forward together, and the hideous face with red ears and bruised muscles was roaring wildly.

Everything was so strange that it seemed to have nothing to do with him.

But then, the phrase came in and shattered all the balance: "Patrick is injured." Then the world returned to normal, and the figures and noises around him rushed away like a torrent, because it was too fast and too fierce, pulling Lu Ke's body to passively and continuously step forward, but he couldn't feel his footsteps at all.

Is Willis injured?

Willis is injured!

Willis was injured

Lu Ke's thoughts were a little chaotic, but he didn't have time to sort them out in detail, he could only feel a flustery, and the rapid feeling of heartbeat made the whole person panic to the extreme, and it seemed that he didn't even know where to put his hands and feet-

Patrick Willis? Willis, who has been a mentor and friend since he entered the team? Willis, who always stood behind him and unwavering in his support? Willis, who will always stand side by side with him? Has Willis, who had been plagued by injuries all season, finally collapsed now?

"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." Seeing Willis smile in pain and hideous, Lu was about to throw away his armor.
