i would obviously say LT is easily the best running back in the nfl


LT? I thought he retired? And since when does snorting coke by the truckload turn one from a linebacker into a running back?

And why would you "obviously" say a retired LB is the best RB in the NFL today? I'm confused on that one.

The best RB in the NFL is either Ladanian Tomlinson or Brian Westbrook. It most certainly is NOT LT. Lawrence Taylor was a stud linebacker and I'm 100% certain he didn't come back as a RB.


I Apologized if your confused........ill pray for you
but for starters the headline doesnt read Best RBs in the nfl "ALL-TIME"
so only active players are subject to this argument.....although im sure Lawrence taylor would have made an astounding nfl running back!

ofcourse i meant Ladanian Tomlinson, In the 619 hes known as the "new LT" incase you havn't heard , but i digress so may we proceed


"I Apologized if your confused........ill pray for you "

No need for prayer. My life is actually pretty good.

"but for starters the headline doesnt read Best RBs in the nfl "ALL-TIME" "

Did I say something about the best RB all time? Man, you are one confusing dude.

"ofcourse i meant Ladanian Tomlinson"

Then why did you say LT? EVERYONE knows LT is Lawrence Taylor.

"In the 619 hes known as the "new LT" incase you havn't heard"

I haven't heard. But I'm curious. What is "the 619"?

And would you recognize a "new" MJ? Again. Just curious.

Once again, for those who missed it, LT was one of the greatest linebackers who ever lived.

The running back from San Diego is NOT LT. He is Ladanian or Ladanian Tomlinson or LDT.

Now LDT certainly has a case to be made as the best RB in the game. In fact, many would accuse you of going for an easy win for choosing him once they realized you weren't talking about the REAL LT.

Since I took Ladanian in my first argument I suppose we are arguing for the same person, NOW, after you CHANGED your choice from Lawrence Taylor to Ladanian.


Granted Lawrence taylor is the greatest linebacker who ever played some might argue lambert some might say butkis mine would be taylor even though he disgraced himself and the league with all of the drug allegations
Now im pretty sure everybody and their mother know Lt as lawrence Taylor and as a linebacker....but this is a conversation about running backs and just look at sports center or nfl today etc. ladanian Tomlinson is refered to as LT not LDT if you dont believe me take a look your 4 self....
Just so theres no more furthur confusion When i say LT i mean Ladanian Tomlinson "21" 5'10" 221 lbs. college TCU born in Waco TX
But deep down i think you know that and in reallity cant really argue that so you proceed to Turn th tables on me...with that whole Lawrence taylor bit BUT you did mention something about (BW) i mean brian westbrook i apologize.... now if your going with him i assume,
Tomlinson -10,650 yds 115tds mvp 2 straight rsh titles craked 1000 evry single year
Westbrook umm..about half that no mvps and no rsh titles and a better o line... oh and 619 = San Diego CA ..now you know


"i think you know that and in reallity cant really argue that so you proceed to Turn th tables on me...with that whole Lawrence taylor bit "

Can't sneak anything by you.

Of course Ladanian Tomlinson is the best RB in the game today. If you want a legitimate argument, then start a legitimate topic. Otherwise, for our next TD let's do "Greatest wide receiver of all time", I'll take Jerry Rice.

That said, you're just lucky LT is busy snorting the 40 yard line. I don't think he'd appreciate you trying to re-assign his nickname to a hated running back!

I am just glad CCC didn't turn it into a AP vs. Tomlinson TD. I am almost as sick of hearing people say AP is the best running back in the NFL after just one year on the job as I am of hearing Favre is coming back he is going to be a Viking,Bear,Buc,Panther, Raven, or whatever.

...In the 201 (East Rutherford, NJ), Taylor is known as a linebacker, not a running back.

LT = Lawrence Taylor
If you're trying to reach LaDainian Tomlinson, please dial LDT

Okay, to settle the debate I will enter "LT, football" into Google...

...Hold on for 0.03 seconds while Google performs the search...

Okay here it is...

The FIRST reference that comes up is Lawrence's Taylor's wikipedia page.

But wait, he's not a running back.

OK Tony, I'm going to bed. Next time don't start a TD that is so obvious and you won't get burned. If you want a legitimate argument, come up with a legitimate topic.

I know Adrian Peterson has been in the league only one year and was hurt a few games but did you see the numbers the kid puts up and he never stops running. I can't argue with Tomlinson being a great running back but give Peterson some credit.

LT LDT who gives... obviously CCC knew it was the TD was in refrence to tomlinson, CCC was just using this oppurtunity to point out how much of a no brainer this is. LT or LDT is EASILY the best RB in the league currently and no use of making a TD argueing it. my vote is going to CCC.

AP blew it up last year no doubt about it. Single game rushing record against a pretty good SD defense. You need to be in the league for more than 16 games though to be called best running back in the NFL and there are a lot of people talking that trash already. They are probably the same ones who will be spewing that nonsence if Mcfadden blows up this year.
