Coach actually said one of the highlights of the year was watching Hayne come on.

New coach probably won't be so in favour of Hayne.

I listened to a bloke from Gridiron NSW talking about Hayne on News 24 at the weekend.  He was pretty confident that Hayne would continue to develop and, with the right coach, do OK next season.

However, he also spoke about two Aussies playing in the college system.  They have an obvious advantage over Hayne and he predicted that one of them will playing NFL next season.

That should be an interesting development.

Congrats, good luck against the seahawks next week !!

We'll need it!

Hope you guys win through so if a miracle happens and we both get to the conference game we can beat you again!

Not sure if either of us will be playing in week 2 of the playoffs though.  :-\

Hayne has more chance of getting a gig next year than Brian Hoyer, QB for the Houston Texans.  He choked badly, coughing up about about 5 interceptions/turnovers to leave the Texans scoreless.

And the Steelers/Bengals game proved why NFL's a bit of a guilty pleasure.  It's like watching heavyweight boxing - talk about skills all you like, but doing damage to opponents is what it's all about.  This was a game which was always going to be brutal.  The referees stood between the teams during their warm-ups and read them the riot act, all to no avail.  With only about 20 seconds left and with the Bengals 1 point up, the Steelers were at the Bengals 45 with only about 20 seconds left and no time-outs remaining.  Roethlisberger then threw it down the middle to about the 30 and the it went through the receiver's hands.  Burfick was running in the opposite direction and could easily have registered that the play was dead but chose to drop the shoulder and smash the receiver, leaving him on the ground for some time.  Burfick was done for headhunting and that put the Steelers in field goal range.  Then another Bengal gave away another penalty for arguing with the ref and that was that.  Burfick was clearly losing it before that incident and the coaches were trying to calm him down.  My God, the guy preferred to try to knock out an opponent rather than winning a play-off.  Says it all about where heads were at, at least those who weren't already concussed or injured.  And there were quite a few of those by that stage.

Ouch what a heart breaking way to miss out.

That was a very gettable field goal.
