[Gravity]

LT's numbers the last 6 weeks:

Week 6	21 rushes for 71 yards and 4 TD's + 7 Rec's for 64 yards = 37.5 PointsWeek 7	15 rushes for 66 yards +  6 Rec's for 72 yards and 1 TD + 1 Passing TD = 23.8 PointsWeek 8	25 rushes for 183 yards and 2 TD's + 3 Rec's for 57 yards and 1 PASSING TD = 42 PointsWeek 9	18 rushes for 172 yards and 3 TD's + 3 Rec's for 20 yards = 37.2 PointsWeek 10   22 rushes for 104 yards and 4 TD's + 6 Rec's for 54 yards = 39.8 PointsWeek 11   20 rushes for 105 yards and 3 TD's + 3 Rec's for 74 yards and 1 TD = 41.9 Points

WOW!

 

[TinHat]

We'll see waht LJ does this week

his last three weeks have been huge

 

[wilked]

Better than Holmes ever did. Need to check MFaulk...

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

This is what happens when LT is not playing hurt. Many people forgot that LT nursed a bad groin for a good part of 04, and a rib injury for a good part of 05...

 

[wilked]

We'll see waht LJ does this week his last three weeks have been huge

He would need over 47 pts to best LT's 4 week run. Not gonna happen

 

[Fruitbat]

LT's numbers the last 4 weeks:

Week 6	21 rushes for 71 yards and 4 TD's + 7 Rec's for 64 yards = 37.5 PointsWeek 7	15 rushes for 66 yards +  6 Rec's for 72 yards and 1 TD = 23.8 PointsWeek 8	25 rushes for 183 yards and 2 TD's + 3 Rec's for 57 yards and 1 TD = 42 PointsWeek 9	18 rushes for 172 yards and 3 TD's + 3 Rec's for 20 yards = 37.2 Points

WOW!I know LJ had a great run last year but he never had a 4 game strech like that!

Dont forget his passing TD week 7 vs the Chiefs.I posed this same question (best stretch ever?) to myself last week and queried through our dynasty league data. It was the best 3-game stretch for any RB since our league started in 1994 (caveats: only among players that were started and not including playoff weeks).I highly suspect LT just finished the best 4-game stretch ever in our league as well.Yes I am the LT owner.

 

[perry147]

I think Emmit Smith might have done something close to this "back in the day".

Yes I am an old man and yes I am an LT owner.

 

[Banger]

The crazy thing is that he only averaged 24.5 touches/game over that stretch.

 

[MSULions]

12 tds in 4 games is simply unreal. Pretty good for a #3 pick!

 

[gigantor]

Culpepper had a nice 5 game stretch to start off 2004

 

[Gravity]

Make that 5 weeks now.

I doubt there has EVER been a stretch like this.

 

[fridayfrenzy]

17 TDs in 5 weeks

 

[pantagrapher]

The guy is just un-freaking-believable.

Wish I had him.

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Make that 5 weeks now.I doubt there has EVER been a stretch like this.

There hasn't. LT broke the record for most TDs over a five game span yesterday. He's about to break another of Jim Brown's records, fastest to 100 TDs - assuming he can get 2 in the next 4 games.

He'll likey get 2 in the next 2 quarters.I had him for 3 years in a now-dead keeper league. Got him with #1 overall in one league this year (keeper!) and he fell to #4 (Tiki went 3) in another. I HEART LaDanian. Favorite FF evah!

WTF?

 

[One]

simply amazing. and i thought Priest Holmes & Marshall Faulk were the all time fantasy gifts. Tomlinson is almost making it look easy.

Watch and remember cause I think it'll be a LONG time before we see another season like this one.

 

[Sticks2u]

Man Im just hoping this stud runs like this weeks 15-16....screw now.....

(Edit: added passing TD week 7)

Amongst RBs, LT's 140.5 is the best 4 game span within a single season since 1995. However, if you remove the requirement that it all fall in a single season, Marshall Faulk scored 141.1 in weeks 15-17 of 2000 and week 1 of 2001, with scores of 41.8, 37.2, 44.1 and 18.However, if we're not restricting it to RBs, then it isn't even close to what QBs put up:

Columns are player id, year, the week the streak started, and total fantasy points for the 4 weeks. Peyton's up there a lot for his 2004 season. Peyton's got the best 4 game span, with 175.4 points and weekly results of 53.6, 39.4, 46, and 35. He would also have the best 5 game span as his next game after those was 48.

How do you guys think LT2 will do at Denver next week? Another multiple TD game?

I have him for 90 ru 1TD, 6 rec, 52yards 1 TD

 

[Da Guru]

I am in three leagues and have played LT in all of them 3 of the last 4 weeks!

 

[Banger]

Next week will be tough for LT, I'd guess about 90 total yards and maybe a TD.

 

[Synthesizer]

Last 5 games:

596 yards rushing, 267 yards receiving, 15 rushing/receiving TDs, 1 passing TD

Just wanted to make sure I had that written down correctly when people argue against taking him #1 overall next year (happens every year).

Well finishing #1 overall for the first time ever in his career should help your argument.

 

[TheFanatic]

All I know is I had to play him in back to back weeks in two different leagues. I want 0-2

 

[mbuehner]

-Tomlinson has more touchdowns this season than Oakland and Tampa Bay combined.

-Tomlinson has more touchdowns than 17 out of 32 NFL teams offenses do.

-Tomlinson in the last 5 weeks has scored more fantasy points than Buffalo, Tampa Bay, and San Francisco.

-Only 8 NFL offenses have rushed for more yards in the last 5 weeks than Tomlinson has.

WTF?

Yeah, I could not believe my luck. SA went first, LJ then Tiki went to a die hard NYG fan. She took their D in the 7th also. So nice to NOT have to play against him in 2 of my 3 leagues.

Well before this year he had never finished as the #1 back--in fact had never finished better than #3. Barring injury, he will obviously lead the league this year.

 

[CHEF]

I am a proud LT owner. I was very happy to take him 3rd overall. I feel sorry for the 2nd pick, he took Alexander.

I am just riding the LT train, on a 5 game winning streak.

Now I'm just waiting for W.Parker and Westbrook to catch fire and pass LT. He'll finish #3 again and this same argument will take place next summer.

It would indeed help. Though the fact he's been so consistently up in the uber-stud range while others come and go from it has been enough to arguably justify taking him #1 even if he never finished there.

Nobody ever got mocked for drafting LT #1, but my point is he isn't the only reasonable choice. I had LJ #1 going into this season, and while that was wrong in hindsight I don't feel silly--up until this year (post-Roaf), the KC RB has outdone LT by around 5 PPG.Next year LT will be the consensus #1 unless LJ *really* turns it on or there is an injury.

thanks in large part to record setting years by Priest and SA, not a lack of production on his part. If you look at fantasy points for the last 4 seasons LT was in the top 15 4 times, no other back was there more than twice and he will be there again this year. The others over the past 4 years were Priest (2), SA (2), Ahman (1), LJ (1), Ricky Williams (1), Jamal (1), Tiki (2) and Portis (1). Year in and year out consistency at an extremely high level is why LT should have been and is the #1 pick. Note:SA had 4 of the top 20 so he was right there.

 

[shakeybarn]

Culpepper had a nice 5 game stretch to start off 2004

yeah, in my two main leagues, Daunte's 2004 still ranks as the greatest point total in long long long time. so i have to imagine strung some together. to put it relative, he averaged 26 pts a week, while LT is around the low 30s over the past 4 weeks and 24 pts a week for the year.

 

[shakeybarn]

LT's numbers the last 4 weeks:

Week 6	21 rushes for 71 yards and 4 TD's + 7 Rec's for 64 yards = 37.5 PointsWeek 7	15 rushes for 66 yards +  6 Rec's for 72 yards and 1 TD + 1 Passing TD = 23.8 PointsWeek 8	25 rushes for 183 yards and 2 TD's + 3 Rec's for 57 yards and 1 TD = 42 PointsWeek 9	18 rushes for 172 yards and 3 TD's + 3 Rec's for 20 yards = 37.2 Points

We need to get Wheelhouse to do a posting specifically on LT stats for this season!!!

 

[Sweetness_34]

Thank God I did not drop him after that poor week 7 performance.

 

[Yankee23Fan]

My LT man love is large.

But I am saddened in that his contract expires in my keeper league this year and I have to throw him back into the pool. I will mourne that day as I cry into the trophy and check he wins me as I send out that email.

If someone passed on LT at #1 or #2 for the only reason that he had never finished #1, then good for you. I wish you enjoy watching LT light it up.It's the future that matters, not the past. You can use the past to predict the future, but just because someone has never been #1 does not mean he should not go #1. LJ and SA both lost key o-linemen while LT had two great years despite playing injured. Guess who was moving up and who was moving down from 2005 to 2006?

 

[gump]

How does he stand in his quest for the best year ever for a RB?

I thought Priest averaged about 30 pts for an entire 16-week season...maybe 2001?

 

[CalBear]

How does he stand in his quest for the best year ever for a RB?I thought Priest averaged about 30 pts for an entire 16-week season...maybe 2001?

Priest averaged 23.3 ppg for 2003 (373 points). He averaged more than that per game in 2002, but wound up with the same point total because he played in just 14 games. The highest season point total I can find is Marshall Faulk in 2000, who scored 375 points (23.4 ppg).Tomlinson is averaging 27 points per game. He needs to average just 18.9 ppg from here out to beat Faulk's record.

Thanks, CB. It must be the 2002 season I am thinking about....when he hurt his hip in week 15. I remember him averaging 30/pts a game somewhat late in the year, but must have cooled off.

 

[Marc Levin]

We'll see waht LJ does this week his last three weeks have been huge

No - he'll have to have THREE more weeks opf playng better than LT - he has yet to have even two consecutive weeks like LTs had this year.LJ isn't even in the same fantasy stratosphere right now - and LJ's the #2 fantasy back.

 

[Marc Levin]

How do you guys think LT2 will do at Denver next week? Another multiple TD game?I have him for 90 ru 1TD, 6 rec, 52yards 1 TD

Next week will be tough for LT, I'd guess about 90 total yards and maybe a TD.

This is LT's down week - he always struggles against Denver in Denver. He then tears Denver's run D a new hole when they meet in SD.

I give up. Are you going to tell us? Can you also look in your crystal ball and tell me who will win the superbowl?

 

[Lemmiwinks]

I don't think Denver can stop LT. 90 and a touch would be if he only played one half of the game.

With the emergence of Rivers as an upper echelon QB, it is impossible to key on LT. He's going to run a train on national TV against the best Run D in the NFL because he is God.
