Seven head coaches were fired last season and seven new ones took their
places in 2018. What are they learning? It’s not easy to win in the National
Football League. Matt Nagy, Mike Vrabel, Jon Gruden, Frank Reich, Pat
Shurmur, Matt Patricia and Steve Wilks all lost their debuts.
上周NFL有一个受到圈内人士与不少球迷会关注的话题,那就是七支更换总教练的球队,
在开幕战全部吃了败仗,这其中还包括Jon Gruden这样的明星级教练。
ESPN编辑组甚至用一句带玩笑的口吻带出引言︰这些教练应该从开幕周学到了一件事
—要在NFL赢球并不是一件容易的事情。
According to Elias Sports Bureau research, it was only the fourth time since
the 1970 AFL-NFL merger that no team with a new head coach won its first
game: 0-4 in 1974, 0-4 in 1986, 0-6 in 2001.
根据知名体育数据公司艾利亚斯(Elias)体育调查局的资料显示︰今年只是NFL与AFL合
并后,第四次发生这种新上任教练首战全吃败仗的状况,前三次分别为1974年(4位)、
1986年(也是4位),以及2001年(这次比较多,有6位)。
