CINCINNATI -- One penalty for holding. Vontaze Burfict has been nearly blameless in his 10 games this season, a statistical suggestion that the Bengals linebacker has finally changed his ways.The best test comes when he finally faces the Steelers on Sunday.Burfict played the key role in Cincinnatis playoff meltdown at Paul Brown Stadium last January. His hit to Antonio Browns head left the receiver with a concussion, moved the Steelers into range for the winning field goal with 18 seconds left, and drew a three-game suspension from the NFL. It was his fourth penalty last season for unnecessary roughness.The volatile linebackers coaches and teammates tried to get him to rein in his emotions and follow the rules this season while remaining an impact player. There was some question about whether he could pull off the change. So far, he has.I think mentally hes at a spot now where hes like, `All right, Im just going to play football, said cornerback Adam Pacman Jones, who also drew a 15-yard penalty in the final minute of the playoff meltdown. By far hes one of the best linebackers in the league, if not the best. So I think hes done a good job of letting his play talk. He still has his edge, but he picks and chooses his battles now.Burfict has avoided talking to the media this week leading up to his rematch with the Steelers (8-5) , who lead the AFC North and can eliminate Cincinnati (5-7-1) as the defending champions on Sunday.Burfict and Steelers players extended the nastiness to social media in the offseason; itll be their first time to trash talk face-to-face.Theyll try to get him riled up.I would too, Jones said. Hell be all right.Burficts production hasnt diminished along with the penalties. Despite missing three games because of the suspension and getting eased back into his role, Burfict leads the team in tackles and has a pair of interceptions and a pair of sacks.He is incredible in his ability to diagnose, coach Marvin Lewis said. Its been recognizable that way since the very first day he was here. Hes smart. He understands plays and puts himself in position.And so far, hes kept himself out of trouble, heeding the urgings that he has to change the way he plays.The game has changed, defensive coordinator Paul Guenther said. In the 1980s, he would have been on the cover of `NFL Crunch Time. He would have been the poster child. Now, its different. Its a different game, and its evolving every week and every year, really. And thats the thing hes got to understand.Game notes The Bengals moved their practice to the University of Cincinnatis covered field because of the cold temperatures.

McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English football. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford.

Brisbane chief executive Greg Swann has offered no guarantee Tom Rockliff will remain as captain after the sacking of Justin Leppitsch.Leppitsch has been removed as Lions coach after an unsuccessful three-season stint, despite having a year left on his contract.As the club post-mortem begins, attention will inevitably turn to whether Rockliff will remain skipper under a new coach.The 26-year-old is among Brisbanes best players, but persistent rumours suggest his leadership style has caused problems with teammates.A number of clubs are reportedly circling Rockliff, who is out of contract at the end of 2017, if he decides to leave or if the club moves him on.Swann was reluctant to discuss the subject on Monday, but said nothing was off the table.Its a bit too early to say. Well wait and see how that goes. Everythinngs open for discussion, he said.ddddddddddddhairman Bob Sharpless also conceded player unrest was a contributing factor to Leppitschs axing.He said Rockliff had broad but not unanimous support in the playing group, who made a presentation to the board last week.Its fair to say there was some positives, there was some negatives, Sharpless said.We had a presentation from a number of areas of the footy department and the players wanted to be included in that.Theres always a few not getting a game. Sometimes youre not as keen on the coach as some of the younger ones that are.Swann said he didnt know how the players reacted to the news because they were informed of the decision via email. ' ' '
