917 History Battle
"Coach, some people say that the Green Bay Packers need a miracle to win the Super Bowl, and you think you have a 50% chance. What do you think about that?"
Las Veer, the ghostly Las Veer found another opportunity to attack and took advantage of the brief silence of the reporters' appearance.
Lu Yiqi's gaze shifted from Valerie to Ras, and the smile in his eyes did not change much, but the corners of his mouth also rose.
"It's not new. Before the season started, people said that after going through the turmoil and chaos of the offseason, and then found me as a transition coach, and it was obvious that the Green Bay Packers season had already come to an end early and we need a miracle to get into the playoffs."
Not only did Lu Yiqi not avoid it, but also took the initiative to mention the chaos of the offseason. The most important thing is that there is no ridicule or complaint in his tone. Even if he uses keywords like "transition coach", he can truly feel the sincere relaxation and comfort, and the smile on the corner of his mouth blooms like this.
"To be honest, I don't resist such a statement, because it means that we have reached the bottom and we have nothing to lose. This can also be regarded as a statement to relieve my pressure. After all, there is enough things in my hands." As he said that, Lu Yiqi chuckled twice, "More importantly, when we stand at the bottom of the abyss, it means that climbing up is the only possibility, and it will not be worse."
"Since we need a miracle to turn the situation around, let's work together to create a miracle, tick! We succeeded for the first time." Lu Yiqi also created the sound effect of magic casting himself. "Now, we also need a miracle to defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers. Then, we have to work harder next to see if the magic can work again. As I said, we fight for victory."
Lu Yiqi looked at Las calmly and generously, "Miracle exists because of the person who believes, but will not disappear because of the person who doubts."
If the reporter's position was not appropriate, they would have wanted to applaud Lu Yiqi at this time--
How did he do it? In the midst of the ordinary question-and-answer round-trip, he used the simplest but most firm way to convey the glory of his beliefs? Moreover, he could not only fight back against the reporters, but also boost morale! Imagine that the Green Bay Packers players read news reports and felt the recognition and support from the coaches. What kind of mood is that?
This is probably the case when a scholar dies for his confidant.
It was originally a problem that was provoking and embarrassed by Lu Yiqi, but it turned out that he became a "master of fooling" and cooking spiritual chicken soup again. He could complete offensive and defensive transformation without moving, which is also a kind of ability.
Goodell, who was paying attention to all this, couldn't help but smile, and then looked at Jerry who was not stingy with applause. Just then, Jerry turned his head and looked over, giving a meaningful sight. Goodell did not speak, but just applauded with Jerry.
From the topic of coaching identity, to topics that imply banning illegal gambling, to topics that show belief in championship competition in modesty, all sensitive topics can deeply feel Lu Yiqi's maturity and wisdom, let alone those Mandarin topics, the personal charm of this young man is indeed impressive.
Even compared to Tomlin, who is also young and energetic, the sharpness and temperament shown by Lu Yiqi can still easily gain the upper hand. That innate charm is indeed a unique existence that is selected from thousands of people, and it is definitely not something that ordinary people can possess.
This also means that Lu Yiqi has the necessary conditions to become a top superstar, and now it requires a little luck. The outcome of the Super Bowl is the key - of course, strictly speaking, the Super Bowl is also in Lu Yiqi's own hands. The Green Bay Packers and the Pittsburgh Steelers have equal chances to win the championship, which depends on whether Lu Yiqi can grasp it.
No wonder the two bigwigs, Goodell and Jerry, both showed satisfied smiles.
Now you can start looking forward.
Although the Super Bowl was the absolute focus of attention and there were countless matchmaking topics between the two teams early on, after the official news ended, the media exploded again, and the snow-like press releases were flying all over the sky, easily pushing the topic to a higher level.
There is no doubt that this is the only focus after February.
"Pittsburg Steelers vs Green Bay Packers", such a showdown is indeed a rare sight.
It has been mentioned earlier that the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears are the longest duel in the league. Because of the Green Bay Packers' long team history, they do have a lot of historical opponents, and the Pittsburgh Steelers are also one of them, because the team established in 1933 is the fifth longest team in the league.
However, the Green Bay Packers and the Pittsburgh Steelers have no grudges, and they are far from being a mortal enemy. Teams affiliated to two different unions have very limited records of matchups, but these two teams are indeed the second with the deepest historical heritage of the league.
Looking at the entire league history, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers, Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys are the four most successful teams in history. Later, the New England Patriots rose to the new century were also successful, but their historical heritage cannot be compared with the previous four teams.
In history, the Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys all won the Super Bowl five times, tied for the most awards to win the championship.
Behind the three teams, the New York Giants ranked fourth alone with four championships; while the Green Bay Packers won three championships, alongside the New England Patriots who won three championships in four years after the Millennium.
This also gives the 43rd Super Bowl more important significance: if the Pittsburgh Steelers win the championship, then six Super Bowl trophys will lead alone and create history; if the Green Bay Packers win the championship, then four championship trophys will tie the New York Giants and rank among the top five groups.
Moreover, this is the first time since the 1995 Super Bowl Dallas Cowboys vs. Pittsburgh Steelers, two teams that won more than two championships - interestingly, the venue was also Tampa, and then the Pittsburgh Steelers lost the game and made the Dallas Cowboys' fifth championship.
Naturally, the matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Green Bay Packers was given a lot of historical weight.
