Is it possible Tiki does not score a TD this year but... (1 Viewer)

[laughinboy_2000]

I say Tiki NEVER scores this year, but leads the league in rushing! Has that ever happened? Has there ever been a player who leads the league in rushing yards, but did not score?

I highly doubt it. It's week 9, so it's not exactly a far reach for this to happen. This would be one of the weirdest accomplishments in sports history? Thoughts?

There's about as much chance of that happening as a team like the Giants ever going through a season without either of its starting WRs scoring a TD.

What's the fewest TD's scored by the rushing leader?

I have a feeling Tiki gets in there against Houston this week...especially if Plax doesn't play.

For those that don't remember Doug Russell, he was a carbon copy of Barber. I agree with OP, Tiki will not score this season.

As interesting as this could be, my guess is he will break of a long one sooner or later

Do you think Tiki has any more value this year, or ever?

Zero value. In any scoring system. Present & future.
