Jarryd Hayne’s second appearance for the 49ers was disappointing as they lost to the Steelers by 43-18.
The Australian had a forgettable second match in NFL. He played only four snaps in the game as his team got thrashed by Pittsburgh Steelers.
Steeler quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was outstanding in this match. Roethlisberger threw a whopping 369 yards, three touchdown passes and no interceptions. He equalled Hall of Fame quarterback Terry Bradshaw with most career wins as a quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers with an astonishing 107 wins. He will look to break the record as he and his team will take on the St Louis Rams next week.
With the horrific injury of Tony Romo fracturing his collarbone, the Dallas Cowboys have traded Buffalo Bills quarterback Matt Cassell. This is certainly a boost for the Cowboys as they will play for Romo.
