dabuffbills Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 or is LT so good that people just accept as a fact that he will have a huge game every week and don't bother talking about him much. He had 178 yards and 2 touchdowns...and people said he had a so-so week. I guess this guy's pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piranha-z Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 The only time they talk now is when he has a bad week and then they analyze it. The guy is gold!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabuffbills Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 when's the last time he had a bad week? He's easily gonna pass Alexander's record from last year...I'm feelin an MVP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco Billy Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 We could easily be looking at the best season that a RB has had in the history of the NFL this year with LT. To watch a season long performance of this magnitude is spectacular, but I wonder how many people really realize how special it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabuffbills Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 To me, it seems like he's getting less attention this year than SA got last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Ryan Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 LT will get more attention when he passes Alexander. Alexander got the majority of his pub when his team was coasting through the playoffs, and after he set the record. I see the same thing with LT as long as san diego is winning in the post season. LT will give the media something to talk about when covering San Diego in the playoffs, and if they go to the Super bowl, he will get rediculous Pub, he deserves.

Sigalf03 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) It will be interesting to see if he keeps up the pace. While there is no evidence to suggest that he won't, he does always seem to slow down tremedously durring FF playoff time. I know I have had him years past where he was golden right up until weeks 14-16 and he just stopped producing. Even as a Cheifs fan I hope he keeps it up, would love to see what kind of TD #s he can mass in the final 4 weeks of the season Edited December 4, 2006 by Sigalf03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Trick Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 but I wonder how many people really realize how special it is? Not I, I am wondering if we may be witnessing the best RB to ever play the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pseudolefty Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 As a lifelong Chargers fan, I am thrilled for LT and the team. He has always been brilliant, even in his first few years when the team was horrible, and the only reason to watch the game was to see what he would do. Now, he has a great supporting cast and it's great to see him soar to the highest heights. LT has typically been a strong finisher. He tailed off last year because he was playing with a broken rib. I think he'll continue to do great things with 3 of the final 4 Charger games at home. The local papers have cited on a couple of occasions that the coaches have lightened his workload a lot at practice this year. He doesn't do nearly as much running. Because of this, LT has said that he feels "fresher" and better now than in years past. He doesn't need all the practice reps. He's run through some of these plays so many times that he could do them "with his eyes closed". I foresee LT continuing to get the carries and TDs even if the Chargers clinch a playoff spot and lock their division. They really want to get the first-week playoff bye and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. They have a lot of banged up players and an extra week off would be helpful. Plus, I bet you anything that in the back of LT's mind, he'd love to win the NFL rushing title. That's one thing I don't believe he's ever achieved in his illustrious career and he's got a real good shot this year. He took the lead over LJ yesterday. I think he and LJ will be neck-and-neck the rest of the year for most rushing yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on pace for 32 - 34 TD's. That's crazy. And if it gets coupled with playoff wins, he'll get his due pub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabuffbills Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 What I like most about LT is that even though he may be the best, he doesn't act cocky or brag. You never see him call out a coach, teamate, or another player. He doesn't say that he's gonna run all over an opposing defense (even though he probably thinks it). And he doesn't demand more money like some other greedy athletes do. He just plays because he loves the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he talks of meeting Jim Brown or Emmitt when he was a wide eyed kid you can see he doesn't feel better than they were. Those experiences keep him grounded I think.
