 My jeep is creepest, where'd you get those papers? It is midnight, it is midnight here on Tuesday, oh sorry, Monday night, going into Tuesday, the, well, now, 12th of December, on the 27th of September, 2022, okay, oh, we've had a day of it, we really, well, we've had an evening, you could say, a late evening of reactions. We've done a few football videos, we've done a boxing video, and now we're gonna get back into football, and we're gonna meet, would you believe, the NFL's biggest one game wonder. Now, this is a video created by KTO, Calston the Oracle. This video was created five years ago, would you believe, five years, I've been following the league for four. This video was created about a year prior to me, actually taking a vested interest in the league. But his name's Jerome Harrison, he plays 35 for the Browns, and he's the NFL's biggest one game wonder. What we will see, only time will tell, I've got absolutely no idea, I don't know who, I don't know what he, I don't know who he is, I don't know, well, I know his name, I don't know what position he plays, I don't know, look, a one game wonder. Was he literally a one game wonder? I mean, you know, when you think of top 40, when you think of top of the pops, back in the day, you probably have to be at least 30 years old to know what top of the pops was. But when you think of the top 40, as far as music's concerned, you think of one hit wonders, right? One hit, one song wonders, one hit wonders. Apparently the NFL has one game wonders, and today we find out the NFL's biggest one game wonder. If that's enough for me, let's get into it. Browns and Chiefs getting together in Kansas City, a battle of two of the worst teams in the NFL. Jason Horowitz, nfl.com's Pat Crow and Clyde will be with you on the NFL preview show presented by Tyson and the Tisers, and if that doesn't get you excited to watch the game, well, I would understand why. Who the fuck is that guy? Yes, two bad teams facing off, how could that be exciting? December 20th, 2009, the Browns versus the Chiefs. Brady Quinn had one heck of a game. 66 passing yards, zero touchdowns, and a whopping two interceptions. Yet, the Browns scored 41 points. So how did they put up these points? Well, Josh... Well, you must have had a fairly decent running game. Cribs was part of it. As one of the few bright spots on the Browns roster, he returned two kickoffs for touchdowns, setting an NFL record along the way for the most kickoff return touchdowns in a season. It was a pretty historic moment and pretty crazy to think that he returned two in the same game. It was something that had only been done nine other times in the history... Isn't it crazy hearing one of the worst teams in the league being the Chiefs? I mean, obviously that's simply not the case these days, but... Three the NFL. Well, actually, oh, come on, mate. And this performance wasn't even close to the craziest thing that happened that day. Okay, right, the Browns won with two return touchdowns, 66 yards through the air, which is absolutely nothing. No receiving touchdowns at all. Two interceptions, and this is the NFL's biggest one game wonder. Either way, let's continue. Now that Jamal Lewis can no longer play, the Browns don't have many options at running back. So by default, we're getting a good long look at Jerome Harrison. Meet Jerome Harrison. Not James Harrison. The freaking nature linebacker from Pittsburgh, who returned their interception to Super Bowl. No, I'm talking about the five foot nine, 205 pound running back. A former fifth round pick and... Five nine, 205 pounds, pretty standard. 2006, Jerome Harrison was a backup for most of his tenure in the NFL. He hardly even played in his first three seasons. Let's have a look at this. 33 games played, one game started. And really, yeah, there's nothing. To sort of write home about there. He didn't even have a touchdown until his third year. And he averaged less than four carries a game and he never had a thousand yards season. And now he is finally being handed the reins in week 15 of the 2009 season. And he is about to reach a feat that no Browns player, not even the legendary... What on earth did he do? What did he do? Did he get 250 yards? Jim Brown had ever done. Let me just show you the all-time leaderboard for rushing yards in a game. Look, I said 250, right? Don't tell me he gets 300 yards along the ground. Don't you tell me he gets 300 yards. 250? Okay, 221 by Bo Jackson. 228, CJ2K. This is the greatest fullback ever to play the game. Jimmy's mind is to bring down a wild steer. 243. 248! Would you believe? Eric Dickerson, the man with the goggles. Two... Honestly thought it would... I honestly thought this would not go further than 250. I've actually never looked specifically at the most rushing yards in a single NFL game. And if he makes 300 yards in a game, after starting one of 40 plus games in his first three seasons. 275. Patent, fifth all-time. 286. There he is. That's his name. Jerome Harrison. 2009, third all-time, with 286 rushing yards in a single game. Jerome Harrison completely carved the Chief's all- 286 rushing yards! How many attempts? Oh, and by the way, his last one came late in the fourth. And ended up being the game-winning touchdown. To do 11 yards away from being all-time single-game rusher in the history of the NFL. And oddly enough, Jamal Lewis, one of the two players ahead of him on this list, was actually on the Browns team. He also set the former record against the Browns when he played for the Ravens. But now, later in his career, he literally was the Browns starting running back. While Harrison was the backup, Lewis got hurt in week 12, ultimately giving Harrison the opportunity for this to happen. That's insane. Adrian Peters is in the number one. Jamal Lewis is number two, playing for the Browns. He got injured. And lo and behold, Jerome Harrison comes in and basically follows in his footsteps, you could say, and gets the third all-time rushing yards by a running back in a single NFL game. And you know what? Before we continue, we've got to check that, because this is back in 2017. NFL single game rushing record. It's still 296 yards by Adrian Peterson. November 4th, 2007 against the Chargers. Does Jerome Harrison still hold the number three mark? I wouldn't be surprised, and he does. Adrian Peterson, 296, Jamal Lewis, 295, Jerome Harrison, 286, Corey Dillon, 278, Walter Payton, 275, OJ Simpson, 273, Sean Alexander in seventh place with 266, Jamal Charles in eighth place with 259, and Jonathan Taylor equal ninth with DeMarco Murray with 253 rushing yards. Where are we? One game wonder. One game wonder. Right, so he's number three on the list. That is a record that, that's an incredible record. But what happened after that? Available performance in the game before this. Harrison had seven carries for nine yards. To be fair, he did finish the season strong with two more hundred yard games, finishing the year at 862 rushing yards. After the 2009 season, he'd only have one more rushing touchdown. What, only one more rushing touchdown after that season? Look at that, 500 yards in three games. And he couldn't find a decent contract, what the fuck? Is it because he played for the Browns or what? And one more hundred yard game for the rest of his career. No. This incredible game equated for over 33% of his total yards on the season, and 60% of his rushing touchdowns. That 286 yards was 17% of his career rushing yards. What have we here? This is unbelievable. This is ENFL's biggest one game wonder. To put that into perspective, Emmett Smith would have to rush for 3,122 yards in a game to achieve 17% of his career total. If Harrison replicated this performance just six times, it would surpass his amount of rushing yards in his career. In a six year, 62 game career, Jerome Harrison had 1,681 yards. Six year, 62 game career. And this was in his third year. But where did he go after that? Did he stay at the Browns? Was he still a backup? What happened? And seven touchdowns, which if you look just straight at those numbers, you would say that's a pretty solid single season stat line. Actually, six of the 10 guys on the all time single game rushing list had at least a single season with that many yards. And the other ones had a season with at least 1,400. Of the top 50 performances on that list, only three players didn't reach a thousand yards in a season. Tommy Wilson, a fullback who played in the 50s, Bo Jackson, who played baseball during his career. So it limited his games in the NFL. And lastly, Jerome Harrison. Well, Tucker wrote real big. I could be used in reference to the season that you had, especially the last part of it. I mean, Well, the last three games at least. Looking forward, man. I mean, Cleveland, the fans, they want you to carry that through through this year. Yeah, you know, that's the goal. We picked up where I left off. You know, had a good all season workout, still training down in Florida. It's going good. I'm probably stronger than I ever been. Better than I ever been. Absolutely. Well, strongest you've ever been, best shape you've ever been. What happened? What happened? Harrison would battle injuries and struggled to get on the field for two seasons before ultimately. Well, he went to the Lions and unfortunately that doesn't end well for most players. Injuries. Injuries. That's the word. That's the key word. Later to find out that he had a brain tumor and during surgery to remove the tumor, there were further complications that temporarily paralyzed Harrison. And to see him like that was just unreal. He was declared a quadriplegic. He had paralyzed vocal cords. He was tricked and had a feeding too. After such promise, Jerome Harrison's life had completely flipped upside down. Well, she didn't say one word. Please tell me he recovered. No. Jerome Harrison has battled back and he's gained back quite a bit of function that he had lost. Bro, what the fuck, man? This is incredible. What? He had a brain tumor. They removed the tumor, but in doing so, caused him to become a quadriplegic. What? I could see it in his face and he was ready to go. He was ready to go. Oh, it was all. It was all. He had this pure determination. He was not going to let this get him down. Oh, nah. You should actually watch the full video on the whole process. It's just overall incredible. Oh, I can only imagine. I can only imagine what kind of... Jeez, what kind of journey that would have been. Holy shit. As far as his NFL career was six seasons. Yeah, maybe he didn't have the most decorated and illustrious career, not even close, but he did something special that December day, something that 99% of NFL players will never achieve. Runs left and he's inside the 40. He has 238, so he's passed the great Jim Brown. Second game rushing. How about that? Jeez, that's heavy. That's really heavy. That's real heavy. But one thing I do want to know is what was his complete stats from that game? Let's have a look. Well, he ran a 4-4-7-40 yard dash. He's got a 3-4-1 1⁄2-inch vertical jump, 10-foot-4 on the broad jump and 19 reps on the bench. Played seven seasons in all, 63 games, as we know. 1681 yards. But his most successful season by far was 2009 with the Cleveland Browns. Played 14 games, only started one. 194 attempts for 862 yards. And longest being 71 yards for a touchdown. Seven rushing touchdowns in 63 games. It seems as if he deserved more. Either way, let's get his stats for that exact game. We've got a pro football reference. Jerome Harrison, there he is, 2006 to 2011. Now let's see if we can get an individual game stat line. Game logs, here we go, 2009. Have a look at this. Jeepers Creepers. Jeez. Okay, 20th of December, 2009, against the Kansas City Chiefs. They won 41 points to 34. 34 attempts for 286 rushing yards, 8.41 yards per attempt, three touchdowns, three targets. Well, sorry, two receptions for 12 yards, an averaging of six. And he, yeah, so he didn't return, he didn't return any kicks that day. In fact, he only returned kicks twice that season. But as far as his performance that day along the ground, 34 attempts for 286 yards at an average of 8.41. And then he comes in the next week against Oakland, 39 attempts for 148 yards, an average of 3.79, one rushing touchdown. And the week after the last game of the season, 33 attempts for 127 yards, an average of 3.85 per attempt. So I'm gonna say in the last three games of the season, he had over 110 rushing attempts for over 500 yards, which is, you know, around about five per attempt. Shit, okay. Well, was he a one game wonder? I don't know. They played Cincinnati in the fourth week of the 2009 season. He had 29 attempts for 121 yards. It's not as if he hadn't done it before, but three rushing touchdowns, 286 yards, 34 attempts. I tell you what, if nothing else, I wouldn't have expected his career to end the way it did. All the best to him. I'm not gonna look up where he is now. Hopefully he's happy, healthy, and got his family surrounding him. I mean, that's all I can say. Either way, guys, that was the NFL's biggest one game wonder, and well, I'd have to agree. Third all-time in rushing yards in a single game. Not bad at all. Cheers, guys, and well, I'll see you in the next one. Much love and peace out.
