[@nengehtardzer2839]

His 2003 season might have been his most underrated one that he ever had in his career. Over 1600 rushing yards 100 catches for over 700 receiving yards and he put up those kinda numbers for a team that went 4-12 that year and ended up with the number 1 pick.

[@nengehtardzer2839]

2003 as a whole was the year of the running back in the nfl for sure

[@agonzalez8924]

I posted a similar comment on how the chargers were trash in tomlinson's first couple of seasons and how they over used him. That 2003 season is a testament to what I was talking about. Those stats might be the single greatest performance for a running back as whole for a single season, and this was years before he broke the single season td record.

[@realessayog6947]

I was blessed as a kid and teenager watching Marshall Faulk, LaDainian Tomlinson, Adrian Peterson right after... I think Derrick Henry is the RB right after. Amazingly consistent RB's breaking records which sets them apart from those 1-2year RB's.

[@All4mula]

Emmitt, Barry, Walter, bo, Dickerson for me

[@jacklane7489]

💯 real thorough breds. You have to give them the ball and let them run🏇

[@Montryall.]

Sorry I have to add Steven Jackson in there too. Man was a beast and broke Dickersons rushing record

[@My.IMMACULATE.Conception.8]

If SJ39 had what Henry has alas a Saffold and Pace he would have atleast 2 SBs

[@KingDizzleLTDinc.]

Man him and Marshall Faulk are the most complete backs in NFL history

[@shawnheidingsfelder8179]

This video was also a sneaky highlight video for Lorenzo Neal (#47). Probably the last great full-time FB in the NFL. He was trucking people for LT, and kept right on moving. Teams just don't use a real FB very much anymore, and that's helped slowly kill the RB position. That big first hit is on the RB, not the FB leading the way. I got to watch most of LT's home games in college as well (TCU). He came in right after I graduated. No one could catch him if he got past the line. I saw his 400 yard/6TD game against UTEP. They had nothing to stop him. The crazy thing is, his Freshman season the team went 1-10, and they had him playing Fullback. Coach gets fired, new coach puts him at RB, and the rest is history.

[@Ginga]

You made a great point about the death of the FB position affecting RBS. It makes so much sense. I’ve been wondering for years why it felt like workhorse backs have even shorter shelf life than they used to. RBs used to pound the rock out of I with a FB paving the way. Now, they often run from spread and have to make a man miss or absorb a blow.

[@vaughnbutler6129]

Lo Neal and that o line were a huge factor and didn't get enough praise for themselves individually even with how much LT praised them.

Best, most complete running back of the last 20 years and one of the five greatest ever in my opinion. How he didn't make the NFL 100 All Time team is beyond me. Even with a longer season, I'll be shocked if another running back comes close to LT's single season touchdown record.

LT's first-step cut could be the best in history.

[@nascarsteve]

I saw Tomlinson play at TCU and I was a huge fan of him ever since. Even though I'm a die-hard Chiefs fan, he was always one of my favorite "non-Chiefs" Class act and one of the best, most complete running backs in history.

[@RicardoHernandezGTX]

I think L.T.s greatest attributes was his vision he was fast, agile, quick and strong but his vision helped him set up the rest

[@watso014]

Completely agree. His skills were elite everywhere but his ability to read blocks and set up defenders was all-time

[@lando2519]

Yeah but LT was having 1k yard rushing reason and double digit TDs for a couple seasons before his best bud LoNeal showed up.

Dude was so amazing running, I just think most tacklers were like, "nah, stopping him would be destroying art." Truly a one of a kind athlete. Thanks for the rewind.

[@LUVG3N3SIS]

Fun Fact: He was going to be the cover athlete for Madden 08, but a fan named Nick Cupolo made a petition to get him off the cover because he did not want to see him suffer the Madden Curse. LT then talked to his agent, and EA had to take Vince Young.

Grew up a raiders fan and would jus watch lt run all over the place like a madman. His signature TD celebration till this day is my favorite celebration. I can say I was fan of him even tho chargers were and still are a rivalry. Really disappointing he never got a Lombardi.

Please upload the Raiders @ Chargers Game where he ran for 198 Yds and my Raiders put up a good Fight in 2007. RIP Thomas Howard 🙂💯

[@thenumberquelve158]

The 2001 Chargers probably had the best back-to-back draft picks of all time. Ladanian Tomlinson, then Drew Brees. LT really provided some tremendous hype around the team, growing up in San Diego around this time, it was understood, he was THE man in this city. Safe to say his character matched up with his play as well. (Heck, he won Walter Payton Man of the Year the same year he broke all the touchdown records and led the Chargers to 14-2.) Of course, being a Charger, he has no Superbowls to show for it, but he really doesn't need it. He's just amazing.

[@bobbyjamesjr7817]

Wow

[@michiganmadeproduct6765]

Lorenzo Neal crushes every block accept the run for the season record. He stumbles and LT does what LT does. Cool video.

[@Phillyboi215]

Most of us were too young to watch and appreciate the great Barry Sanders but at least we got to see this man right here. He is the closest thing you’ll ever get to Barry and it’s not even close. Although I must say my personal favorite is Adrian Peterson

He kinda pulled a Kevin Durant like move back in 2009. The Chargers lost to the Jets in the 2009 Divisional and then he joined the Jets in the offseason.

[@bdbeckstrand]

I miss watching LT torch defenses. I can't believe how fast he was. Outrunning DBs.

[@usernamealreadytaken770]

He’s the reason why I’m a Chargers fan and not a Rams fan. Since LA had no team for a long time, I became a Chargers fan since they were the closest team to LA, and LT made the Chargers so fun to watch. And even when the Rams moved first, I chose to stay a Chargers fan.

[@armstrongQB1]

Can't believe he and Marshall Faulk didn't make the NFL's 100th Anniversary Team. Glaring omissions. These dudes were the best dual threat RBs in NFL history.

[@anitafloyd2554]

Faulk was great, but he only dominated with a loaded team. He barely averaged 4.0 yards a carry until 99 where he all of a sudden shot up to over 5.0 ypc due to the surrounding talent he had. LT dominated no matter who was around him.

If it wasn’t for LaDainian Tomlinson’s versatility, RBs like Matt Forte, Christian McCaffery, Alvin Kamara, Austin Ekeler, Aaron Jones, and even Darren Sproles wouldn’t be here today. LT was that RB

[@giants2k8]

LT and AD are my favorite backs of all-time. I will never forget Tomlinson’s legendary 2006 season, it was iconic. Nor will I ever forget Peterson’s rookie and sophomore years or his incredible 2012 season after coming back from an ACL and MCL injury to rush for over 2K and 12 touchdowns. People forget just how frightenly good the likes of LT and AD were. I wish someone would sign Peterson and allow him to reach 1500 career rushing yards. I remember the days when rushing in the NFL was dominated by AD and CJ2K- good times!

There was nothing about him that was more complete than Payton, Smith, or Faulk. Or even Marcus Allen. Allen had more total yards, more rec. yds.; plus, 6 passing TDs of his own. Payton was as complete as any back ever, and more complete than 90-some %; plus I think he had like 9 passing TDs.

[@pp3k3jamail]

💥💥 I remember thinking LaDainian Tomlinson had the potential to break Emmitt Smith all time rushing record the way he was going, but seemed like after like 2006 injuries and stuff just caught up with him but he was a beast though there's no doubt about that. I'm going to toot my own horn because I remember seeing him playing at TCU. I remember saying this dude is going to be a beast when he goes to the pros. it was just something about him in college that I liked and I don't say that about too many college running backs
