I realize that having never played football I stand little chance of even being an effective offensive coordinator. My lifetime of long hours logged on my couch probably wouldn't impress many GM's, but Norv Turner's staff week after week continue to provide hope I could do a much better job.
When you possess one of the game's most explosive, exceptionally gifted athletes there's little doubt who should touch the ball 30 times a game. Unfortunately, under Turner's leadership LT has been less of an influence ... except in their victories where he had little choice.
Sunday, Tomlinson was given 31 touches, his highest total of the year which yielded unsurprising results -- one of his best games. LT rushed for 146 and scored a touchdown in overtime to end the game while scoring another through the air which tied him for 8th all-time on the career touchdown list.
LaDainian, just 28-years-old, stands a good chance of giving Jerry Rice's record 204 TD's a run. Do you think he'll pass him?
