1215 Historical Showdown

As the uncrowned champions, the San Francisco 49ers are undoubtedly the target of the entire league, with extraordinary attention and expectations, and even professionals have said early that they are likely to become the first team to defend the title since 2005; But the record of just two wins and two losses in the preseason reveals more uncertainties.

The winning record is just one side, most of the preseason games are still in the stage of lineup run-in and tactical combination, mistakes and fouls can lead to the game going off the predetermined track, and the preseason won all but did not enter the playoffs, and the preseason lost all but flourished in the regular season, and there are countless of them.

In fact, the Baltimore Ravens, who lost in the Super Bowl finals, are also facing the pain of the new season, with a two-win, two-loss preseason record and the same pace as the San Francisco 49ers, except that they won two games and lost two games, reversing a position with the San Francisco 49ers.

More than the victory or defeat itself, it is more about the disorder of the San Francisco 49ers' tactical layout, from the quarterback to the offensive forward to the wide receiver and the near end, every link is trembling and stumbling, and it seems that even the coaching staff themselves have not figured out how the tactics should be laid out, which is the problem.

Everyone knows that the defending champion will be the object of research in the whole league, and seeking change is a high probability choice, but how to change and in what direction should be changed is an unsolvable problem; There is no right answer to the question of how to win with the same model, even if you stick to your original style.

Now it seems that the coaching staff, led by Hubble, is in a confused phase, which led to the huge ups and downs of the preseason. After the start of the regular season, if Hubble can't solve the problem, it means that the offensive tactics of the entire team can't be sorted out, so just relying on Lu Ke alone, he will definitely not be able to win!

What's more, this year's San Francisco 49ers have one of the most difficult schedules in the league.

Throughout the regular season, the six civil battles in the National League West continue to be in the spotlight, with Seattle, Arizona and St. Louis all tough bones, while the San Francisco 49ers have ten tough games waiting in addition to this.

First up is within the National League, with the San Francisco 49ers taking on the Nations League South and then the Nations League East and Nations League North champions.

Among them, the South Division of the League of Nations, the Atlanta Falcons, the New Orleans Saints, the Carolina Panthers, and the Tampa Bay Pirates, any team should not be underestimated, and the two matchups of "Lu Ke VS Matt Lane" and "Lu Ke VS Drew Bliss" are still in the spotlight; And the showdown of "Lu Ke VS Cam-Newton" is also long overdue and is about to be staged.

In addition, the National League Eastern Champion Washington Redskin, "Lu Ke VS Robert Griffin III".

Then, the League of Nations North Champion Green Bay Packers, "Lu Ke VS Aaron Rogers".

To put it simply, the current top quarterback in the National League, Lu Ke will pass one by one, and no game can be taken lightly, and all the above teams, only the Carolina Panthers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are the teams that have not made the playoffs in the past two seasons - but even these two teams should not be underestimated, and every game is a tough battle.

The second is the League of Nations, which crosses the league matchup, and the San Francisco 49ers will face the American League South this year.

Midland South, Indianapolis Colts, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, Tennessee Titans.

The whole situation is clear at a glance, the Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans were both playoff teams last year, the former will be "Lu Ke vs. Andrew Lack" and the latter will be "Lu Ke vs/JJ Watt".

Looking at the entire schedule of the 2013 season of the San Francisco 49ers, it is not difficult to find that Lu Ke will face Brice and Rodgers, one of the four elite quarterbacks, and then the three rookie quarterbacks Luck, Griffin and Russell Wilson, who rose strongly last year, plus Matt Lane, who signed a contract extension with a high salary this year, will be a super quarterback clash for six games.

This is a very, very interesting thing, and the whole league can't help but exclaim:

This is the real ultimate schedule!

After a stellar season last year, the San Francisco 49ers will face the most difficult devil schedule in the entire league this year, with seven games against last season's playoff teams - including two games for the Seattle Seahawks, and only 12 playoff spots in the two leagues, and now the San Francisco 49ers are directly challenging half of the country against six different teams.

On top of that, the St. Louis Rams and New Orleans Saints also came close to making the playoffs last season, further complicating the San Francisco 49ers' schedule.

It is no exaggeration to say that the San Francisco 49ers have barely had much breathing room throughout the season, and the difficulty of the schedule is the highest in the league, becoming the most "unlucky" team among the two teams in the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the road to defending the title is undoubtedly difficult.

Of course, if the San Francisco 49ers can still show the absolute domineering spirit of "God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha" last season, even if the schedule is difficult, it will still be able to overcome obstacles and fight a bloody way, it will be even more spiritual; However, after a series of intense attrition in the regular season, the difficulty of the playoffs is bound to rise, and coupled with the uncertainty of injuries and accidents, the difficulty of defending the title continues to soar tenfold.

Why hasn't any team been able to defend the title since 2005?

Why, even in history, only seven teams have defended their titles eight times?

Why has no team ever been able to achieve three consecutive titles?

Why is it that even a dynasty with three crowns in four years has only appeared twice?

Here's why!

Now, the San Francisco 49ers are on the verge of such an ultimate challenge, and the inconsistent performance in the preseason has cast a cloud of uncertainty over the regular season title defense.

On Thursday, September 5, 2013, the defending champions will traditionally sit at home against a hand-picked team to kick off the season with a sparkling matchup.

This year, the San Francisco 49ers are about to kick off the season against the Green Bay Packers.

This is the second consecutive season that the two teams have met in the first week of the regular season.

Last year, the San Francisco 49ers went north to the Blue Castle Stadium to challenge the Green Bay Packers, and finally won a "33-36" score, narrowly defeated the opponent, made a good start to the season, and achieved an undefeated season in one go.

This year, the two teams met again in the same round, with the difference that this time it was the San Francisco 49ers who took on the Green Bay Packers at Candlestick Stadium, and it was the season opener; But the similarity is that the two teams are still fighting each other with bayonets.

What's more, it was the "highest-paid clash in history" of the 2013 season!

This offseason, the two quarterbacks have been the brightest in the league, setting new records for the highest annual salaries in history.

Aaron Rodgers, as the youngest member of the four elite quarterbacks, is about to turn 30 in December this year, his outstanding and excellent is undoubted, for the super control of interception errors, for the sense of crisis at critical moments, for the decisive shots at critical moments, he is absolutely top-notch, although the passing action is very irregular, even awkward, but the seemingly crooked long pass can always be a fatal blow, can run and pass is even more unguardable.

Lu Ke, as a representative of the rising stars, has just turned 24 years old in November this year, and has just won the Super Bowl as the youngest starting quarterback in history.

The former is a representative of the Mesozoic Generation, and the latter is a representative of the new generation, and the showdown of "Lu Ke VS Rogers" is obviously the absolute focus of much anticipation; What's more, the fact that two players have just set new annual salaries in the offseason and become leading figures makes this opener even more exciting.

After a disappointing season last year, the Green Bay Packers have also faced serious injury problems this season, and their preseason performances have hit rock bottom, losing back-to-back losses to the Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks and Kansas Chiefs, and just one win over the St. Louis Rams.

Among them, the loss to the Cardinals was a clean sheet; The loss to the Emirates was "8:30".

While the preseason doesn't mean much, the Kansas Chiefs were last year's vice-presidents, and the Arizona Cardinals suffered a nine-game losing streak last year, which also means that the Green Bay Packers are really mediocre right now, and neither the offensive nor the defensive end are showing enough competitiveness.

To some extent, the Green Bay Packers and the San Francisco 49 are facing a similar dilemma in different situations and attitudes. This has also focused more and more attention on "Lu Ke VS Rodgers", whether these two quarterbacks can lead the team out of the trough with their excellent performance, give a wonderful duel for the fans, and strive for victory, this will undoubtedly become an important topic in the opening game, especially these two quarterbacks have just completed a record-breaking contract extension, so can they repay the trust of the team and fans?

The more difficult it is, the more you need to rise up. Whether it's Lu Ke or Rogers, this is an extremely difficult but unpredictable game!

It is undoubtedly a coincidence that the league chose this game as the season opener.

Yahoo Sports launched a survey on the portal, "Is it the right choice to choose 'San Francisco 49ers vs Green Bay Packers' as the opening game", and more than 93% of netizens gave a positive answer, and they can directly feel the unparalleled super popularity of this game.
