He may be about to sign with the Cincinnati Bengals, but Larry Johnson is still climbing the Chiefs rushing charts. Thanks to some slow statistical calculations Michael Eisen of Giants.com unearthed this oddity:
"It took a while, but the Elias Sports Bureau has made a scoring change from the Giants’ game in Kansas City on Oct. 4. With 13:08 left in the game, Larry Johnson was originally credited with a rush for zero yards, but the Chiefs gained 19 yards on a fumble recovery. The new ruling is that Johnson, who is no longer with the team, ran for 19 yards before fumbling. Guard Brian Waters gets zero recovery yards.
"Johnson’s rushing totals for the game are now 18 carries for 71 yards. Kansas City’s team totals are 25 attempts for 124 yards, and the Chiefs’ total yardage was 212 yards."
If this keeps up Johnson could still become the teams leading rusher.
