I can't believe that this is all on the back of, and I'll say it again, a 53 yd run in a practice game against a second-string defence. Imagine if he actually scored a TD on that run!!! The headlines would be 'comparing' him to God.

I think I'm just going to switch off between now and when this experiment is over.
not on the hayne bandwagon but it was more then just the 53 yards but it all they talk about here tho

5 carries for 63 yards (game high)
kick returns: 1 for 33 yards
punt returns 2 for 24 yards

blah blah blah...they just talking him up because there isn't anything else to say
