In Reply to: Or you could ask Google. 9 rushes of 25 yards or more. posted by mh on January 15, 2026 at 16:13:25

And that he could have used any one of several search engines. My point was more about the questionable state of what presently qualifies as journalism. And yes, he could have just Googled it, but if I am writing a piece about someone, I think I'd probably first invest a least a few minutes perusing the game logs just to get a better feel for what kind of runner he is. Outside of those 9 big hitters, did he consistently gain decent yardage on his other carries, did he have a lot of negative yardage plays, etc. But yes, if you are going to specifically refer to 25+ yard runs, then at the bare minimum, google it and give the reader a freaking number so they don't have to do your job for you. FWIW, I googled and then looked at stats on ESPN to see his longest carry and reception in each game.
