Of the NFL regular season games, Thursday, Sunday and Monday night games are undoubtedly the top priority.

Except for the final week of the regular season, the key moment to determine the playoff tickets, in order to avoid the situation of tacit ball, all games start at a uniform time; at other times, night games are the highlight, especially Thursday night games, ratings The watch and attention are amazing, and it is generally considered to be the most intense and hottest matchup every week.

But in fact, this is nothing more than the Alliance ’s publicity stunt.

Because, according to the agreement reached by the 32 teams in the league, in the 16-week regular season-not counting the last week, each team needs to appear on the stage of the night game live at least once.

The reason is very simple. The night show stage broadcast throughout the United States is crucial for commercial promotion, brand reputation and sponsorship support. Every team will strive for it.

Of course, when the league arranges live broadcasts of night games, relevant factors such as team strength, season status, sparks against opponents, history of deadly enemies, and fan support rates are bound to be taken into consideration. The Steelers play against the Baltimore Ravens, which is the focus of the focus.

Naturally, it is quite normal for a small number of special teams to be on the night stage at least twice throughout the season.

Nonetheless, the arrangement of the night game must consider the balance of the 32 teams. Therefore, the night game may also be a rookie pecking game.

However, although exposure is important, the coaching team does not like the live broadcast of night games, which will disrupt the rhythm of training and tactical arrangements.

First, too much attention, too much pressure, and media disruption. Players are often prone to aberrations, either excessive tension, excessive excitement, or harassment, especially rookie players, the stage of the night game is completely a test of different grades.

The league official has a statistical statistic: In the national live broadcast and non-national live broadcast games, each player's live performance data. As a result, it can be found that there are certain players who live and work well when they are not on live broadcasts; but when they are on live broadcasts, they are messed up and terrible. It's as if home and away are more general.

Second, prepare for a rhythm disorder, especially Monday night and Thursday night.

On Monday night, it means that after the game, there is only four days to prepare for the next game; on Thursday night, it means that there are only three days to adjust after the last game. . The entire training cycle is very different.

However, coaches and players do not have the right to resist. Considering the interests of the team, but also considering their own "money path", night games are important stages not to be missed.

Before the start of the regular season every year, the league will send a team of experts to evaluate the off-season preparations of 32 teams, and then list a team strength match table for the new season, and then according to the team strength , Team status, star players, historical match information, etc., arrange the entire season's schedule.

The San Francisco 49ers, who have been absent from the playoffs for eight consecutive years, are still the side that was not optimistic in the evaluation before this year's regular season; not to mention, the Western League of the League of Nations has been weak for a long time. Last year, the Seattle Seahawks won more and less. 'S record entered the playoffs and became the laughing stock of the entire league.

Therefore, this year's night game arrangement, the San Francisco 49ers really do not have the advantage. But with a strong and profound historical background, they still arranged a Thursday night game and a Monday night game. Fortunately, these two games are not the second week of the regular season, which is a good thing for Lu Ke as a rookie.

Lu Ke still does not adapt to the NFL game rhythm, not only the intensity of each game, but also the preparation rules of each week. Everything is brand new and everything is fresh. He needs time to adapt, especially Now the physical quality is still unable to complete the long-term confrontation.

During the second week of the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers' confrontation with the Dallas Cowboys was still not the focus of the week, and was scheduled for the same time on Sunday afternoon.

On Monday, the team took a collective holiday.

However, Lu Ke did not have time to rest, and the tactical manual must start to be read again; at the same time, Lu Ke also contacted Scout Adam Klein to find the video of the game while Jim Hubble was coaching Stanford University, and Payton Manning's career highlights highlights. Not to appreciate the game, but to study the tactics on the field.

On Tuesday, the team was partly on holiday.

According to official regulations, the so-called partial holiday is still a holiday time, but players can come to the training base according to their own situation, perform relaxation training, or body massage, or watch the game video.

Instead of heading to the team ’s training base, Lu Ke held a small training camp at home and spent the whole day watching the Dallas Cowboys game video, including the first week of the regular season, four preseason games, and last year ’s entire season. Video.

In addition to the three living treasures of Logan, Marcus and Alton, among this year ’s rookie players, Kendall Hunter, Daniel-Kilgore and Ronald-Johnson ), Colin Jones, Bruce Miller and others also came. To be precise, this is a "Rookie" training camp.

On Wednesday, the team does not have mandatory formal training.

This day is still not mandatory training, players can declare independently. However, most of the players will arrive at the training base and start restorative training, relaxation training, etc. At other times, they can join the offensive team coach and defensive team coach and continue to watch the game video.

In general, the coach team's game preparation starts on Tuesday; the player's game preparation starts on Wednesday. However, strictly speaking, the preparation for the entire team's game begins on Thursday. The schedule for each day is very strict on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and the team must act collectively.

Early in the morning on Wednesday, Lu Ke drove to the training base early, and the small training camp yesterday was really rewarding.

Although everyone is a rookie player, different university backgrounds, different positions on the court, and the interpretation of the game are different. Lu Ke, as the team's brain, listens and absorbs different opinions seriously. . Today, Lu Ke is ready to discuss with the quarterback coach and the offensive team coach, trying to clarify his thoughts and digest all his knowledge into his own things.

Not only that, on Monday, Lu Ke not only successfully completed two quarterback training skill packages and successfully received rewards; but also started daily training tasks again and entered the strength training mode little by little; in addition, Lu Ke It also needs to adapt to the current passing power.

Although the throwing power is still 79 points, there is no change; but the power becomes 61 points, the explosive power becomes 70 points, and more importantly, the physical quality also becomes 70 points. Lu Ke needs time to adapt to the body's changes and growth. At the same time, the pass movement and finger control also need to make corresponding adjustments.

The past two days have been extremely flooded; it is foreseeable that it is still the same today. Tomorrow is Thursday, the team will officially enter the preparation for the second game, he needs to enter the state in advance.

Arriving skillfully at the parking lot, Lu Ke accidentally discovered that a car had arrived in the parking lot. Today, Lu Ke ’s arrival time at the training base has been adjusted a little bit. However, it is not yet 7 o'clock. Is there any player who arrived earlier than him? This is ... strange.

Who on earth is it?

Embracing this idea, Lu Ke entered the locker room, and then saw Alex Smith who had just changed his training uniform.

In an instant, this is the eighth week that Lu Ke has joined the San Francisco 49ers, but this is the first time he and Alex have met.

Due to the injury, Alex had been running back and forth in the hospital and home for the past few weeks without coming to the training base; in recent weeks, the injury gradually recovered, and Alex came to the training base, but it was used exclusively for the wounded to recover The training building is on the other side; during this time, Alex walked over to the training base twice, but under the circumstance, the two never met. Until today.

Lu Ke was slightly surprised.

Alex ’s reputation is really too loud. Although the draft pick in 2005, under his leadership, the record of the San Francisco 49ers has not improved, and his performance can only be said to be quite satisfactory; So far, of all the players Lu Ke has met, Alex is the most famous, top and oldest player.

What's more, both men are quarterbacks and direct competitors. By the way, Alex's Von Derrick test is forty.

There was a slight pause in the atmosphere, and then Alex actively greeted him, "Hey, Lu Ke, right? I am Alex." He stepped forward and extended his right hand friendly, with a A kind smile, "I have heard before that you are a very hard-working player, and now it seems that it really deserves its reputation."

Lu Ke took Alex's right hand and returned a smile, "Welcome back. Is your injury okay?"

Alex looked down at his right leg with a cruciate ligament strain. Such injuries can be large or small. Many athletes completely lost their careers because of this serious injury. But now from the standpoint of Alex, the impact does not seem to be too great, "This is the first week I return to formal training, so everything needs to be slowly observed."

As he spoke, Alex raised his hands, crossed his index and middle fingers, and made a gesture of prayer for good luck. "All I can do now is this." The relaxed words were a little self-deprecating, no Special humor, but approachable.

Lu Ke also made the same gesture of prayer, with a confident and firm smile, "For any professional athlete, injuries are not a good thing. I hope you can really heal, and you are welcome to return to the stadium, Join the competition again with a 100% attitude! "
