After returning from injury, Lu Ke has been in the spotlight in every game, just like when he took over the starting quarterback position of the San Francisco 49ers as a dark horse, and the uncertainty caused by the injury is bound to affect the course of the game in the next few games, just like the St. Louis Rams' quarterback Sam Bradford, the 2010 Offensive Rookie of the Year, who fell into a nightmare in 2011 due to a sprained ankle.

The Arizona Cardinals, who have fully strengthened their defense and offense this season, have never been afraid of the San Francisco 49ers' Arizona Cardinals in the same district matchup, which will undoubtedly put more tests on Lu Ke's recovery and passing sense.

But after the curtain came down on the nearly four-hour game, all the experts couldn't help but sigh again, "35:20", the San Francisco 49ers who were fighting at home defeated the visiting Arizona Cardinals, the visiting rival of the same district, stepped on the corpse of the opponent, got rid of the bad situation at the bottom of the division, and completed the third and fourth places in the Western Division of the National League with a head-to-head victory.

Strictly speaking, the performance of the San Francisco 49ers' defensive team has been up and down, especially the passing defense has exposed problems, the weakness of the second-line defense has continued from last season to this season, and the weakening of bench depth has become a problem. Still, the San Francisco 49ers' highlights shone across the league, making four possession conversions, the second in a row, and a vague re-appeal of last season's peak form.

Four ball conversions! It's a heavy blow, even a fatal blow, for any team that suffers a change of possession!

In this situation, the Arizona Cardinals still scored 20 points, including two touchdowns and two free kicks, and most of the credit goes to Carson Palmer, who was undoubtedly one of the highlights of the game, and he was better than Matt Cub last week, which made the game more suspenseful and sparkling.

25-of-41 from the field, 298 yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions, no tackles, 85.2 quarterback and 1.0 PFF.

Palmer's performance is not top-notch, but it has reached above average level in the entire league, and the most prominent thing is the ability to pass the ball in key moments such as three-gear transitions or red zone offense, which is bold enough and solid enough, which makes the Arizona Cardinals' offensive team show their ability to fight.

Before the official match, the "Lu Ke vs Palmer" matchup of the two players with a long history, although it did not spark widespread discussion, won a lot of attention at UCLA and USC, and on the day of the game, the influence of the California rivals could be deeply felt at the Cindelabra Field in San Francisco.

Palmer's steady and solid performances proved that Arians' vision was unique and accurate; In the face of Palmer's good data, Lu Ke also took over the game without showing weakness.

21-of-31 from the field, 297 yards, three touchdowns, no interceptions, two tackles, 130.8 quarterback and 1.8 PFF.

Purely statistically, the quarterback rating has dropped slightly from the previous game, but the PFF rating is higher, and overall, from the pass success rate to the number of passing yards, Lu Ke's performance has improved significantly, and his control of the game has improved greatly, and the number of pass attempts has also risen to a new level - provided that the Cardinals' offensive team spends more time on the court than the Texans, which also means that Lu Ke tries more passes in less game time, which is a positive sign.

Of course, a quarterback rating of 130.8 is the best proof of this, and it goes without saying.

The most gratifying part is still Lu Ke's tactical layout ability, covering the whole field - from the scheduling ability of the offensive forward line to the tactical choice of passing and running balance, he completely controlled the opponent's defensive group within his own tactical range.

Facing the league's top-ranked ground defense, Frank Goyle and Marcus Lynch combined to run 211 yards, and both running backs ran over 100 yards on the ground, which is also the first time in the league this season that two running backs from the same team have both exceeded 100 yards on the ground.

For the uninitiated, this is naturally a shining moment for Goyle and Marcus; But for insiders, there's a lot more to get a glimpse of.

It was not that the Arizona Cardinals' ground defense suddenly failed, but that in Lu Ke's tactical scheduling, the ground defense repeatedly made mistakes in judgment; And many times under the cover of Lu Ke's feints, so that he lost his defensive position, and he was exhausted throughout the game, and even missed more than four low-level mistakes in the tackle, and finally lost the big yardage on the ground.

Passing and running are never separated, and a quarterback's performance requires the support of a running guard and vice versa. Otherwise, a team like Shawn Lynch or Adrian Peterson who single-handedly supports the team's offense will not be sustained for long.

In the end, Marcus scored two running touchdowns on his own, while Goyle had a game-high number of yards on the ground.

"35:20", this is the epitome of the whole situation between the two teams, the Arizona Cardinals worked very hard, but they still failed to shake the opponent after all; The whole court was in a catch-up posture, but could only watch the score gap widen, and finally lost the game regrettably, and the San Francisco 49ers once again showed their fierce dominance for the first time in a long time: the victory never left the palm of their hands.

After the Houston Texans and the Arizona Cardinals beating the Arizona Cardinals again, neither team can be said to be top-notch, but the quality is definitely not to be underestimated, and all signs are pointing to the San Francisco 49ers getting back on track - the offensive team is gradually picking up, the defensive team is the best in the league, and although the form is still a little up-and-down, the situation is now moving in a positive direction.

Then, in the seventh week of the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers traveled to challenge the Tennessee Titans.

As mentioned in the previous introduction of the Houston Texans, the predecessor of the Tennessee Titans was the Houston Oilers, who migrated to Tennessee in 1997 and became the Tennessee Oilers, and then officially changed their name to the Tennessee Titans in 1999, and finally became the current team.

As the Houston Oilers, this is a team with a glorious past and a strong heritage, although the Super Bowl era has not yet reached the Super Bowl stage, but it has always been a regular in the league's playoffs, with a strong ability to disrupt the game, no one can underestimate it, and after a long downturn in the mid-90s, the team chose to move to Tennessee, and the team has regained its vitality.

In the 1999 season, the newly renamed Tennessee Titans played a 13-3 record in the regular season, entered the playoffs as the fourth seed in the American League, and defeated strong opponents all the way to the Super Bowl, while on the other side of the court was the St. Louis Rams led by Kurt Warner.

The ending is known to all, Kurt Warner completed an incredible Hollywood fairy tale, defeating the Tennessee Titans to reach the Super Bowl.

Since then, the Tennessee Titans have remained competitive, despite the Indianapolis Colts, led by Peyton Manning, who have been suppressed for many years; But they are still regular playoff regulars, making the playoffs by finishing second in the division many times. Until 2008.

2008 was their final season in the playoffs, and since then they have missed the playoffs for four consecutive years, reminiscent of the Houston Oilers' previous lows of missing the playoffs from 1994 to 1997, but they don't know when this time will end the long-term slump.

The current Tennessee Titans are doing badly on offense and even worse on defense. Last season, the offensive group ranked 23rd in the league, and the defensive group was at the bottom of the league, which can be regarded as a weak team in the standard sense of the league, but no one should ignore the fact that there is no absolute weak team in the NFL, and the difference in strength is not large.

The Tennessee Titans are still quarterbacks, and interestingly, their quarterback position also has some fate with Lu Ke.

Last season, the Titans' starting quarterback Jake Rock was the 2011 first-round pick with the eighth pick in the same year, Lu Ke, while the backup quarterback was Matt Hasselbeck, another rival to Lu Ke at the San Francisco 49ers tryout.

This season, Jack Rock is still the starting quarterback, and the backup quarterback position has been replaced by another familiar face: "Bearded" Ryan Fitzpatrick, the Harvard top student who gets injured as the starting quarterback wherever he goes, and he played against Lu Ke once last season at Buffalo Bill.

While the Tennessee Titans seem to have become a team that has been bullied by everyone, the team has a new look this season.

In the season opener, Jack Rock made 11 successful passes out of 20 games, no touchdowns and no interceptions, and then relied on the overall strength of the team to defeat the formidable Pittsburgh Steelers; Then, in the second week, after an overtime battle, they lost to the Houston Texans.

In the third week, Jack Locke led his team to the first victory over the San Diego Lightning for the first time since 1992, and with fifteen seconds left before the end of the game, Locke completed a stunning pass to win the game. Immediately after that, they easily defeated the New York Jets with a score of "38-13".

In the first four weeks of the regular season, the Tennessee Titans had a three-win, one-loss record, which made everyone's eyes shine.

Sadly, Rock has also suffered an injury. He suffered a severe muscle strain in his right leg near the hip against the New York Jets, and according to the doctor's diagnosis, he will miss three weeks, which also means that Ryan Fitzpatrick has once again taken over the starting quarterback position.

The "Bearded Curse" still works.
