THE GREATEST SEASON BY AN RB: Untold Stories of LT’s Origins | Running for History | LA Chargers

Rewind the greatest season by a running back as we take a deep dive into NFL Hall of Fame RB LaDainian Tomlinson's 2006 season with the Chargers. Hear how LT's record-breaking greatness began all the way back at TCU, his journey through the draft and rookie season, his connection with Philip Rivers all the way up to his iconic touchdown vs. the Denver Broncos on Running for History powered by Lazy Dog, a six-part narrative podcast chronicling his historic career.

On this first installment, see how LaDainian Tomlinson's passion for football began as he idolized stars like Emmitt Smith and Walter Payton. Working at his craft through high school and college, with the TCU Horned Frogs, planted the seeds for LT's dominant future in the NFL, from a record breaking 406 yards against UTEP to campaigning for a Heisman Trophy and winning the Doak Walker Award.

drop your favorite lt moment we know y’all got one ⤵️

    Tim jensen

    Imagine chargers win on sunday… wouldn’t that feel great? Then you woke up 💤 sorry charger fans either this sucks that bad or.. or… NFL is rigged which its hard to believe chargers can be that bad for so long…no way a team can be that bad this many years I mean eventually luck would happen and they would be good even if for a year only.. judging by fan size Vegas wouldn’t make much money having stinkies playing in SB therfore chargers will never contend… never ever

    Tim jensen

    What if… chargers made it to the superbowl… omg what if they won it… then reality kicked in…remembered this team is not a good team. Like we always hear chargers fans… we’ll get em next year and after losing the same way everytime a team runs in down your throat and the coaches say we need to watch tape and fix what went wrong… dude you know what went wrong.. you ain’t paid millions to live deja vu every Sunday well if spanos is your boss mediocrity is excelling in his eyes… fuq it were screwed till spanos sells team

    Broken Buddha YT

    @Tim jensen HOPEFULLY he sells the team to Jeff Bazos after this year… I think this year or next is his last, Spanos fam are going bankrupt.

    When the San Diego Chargers and LT played in San Diego

    One of many memorable moments for me had to be when LT lost some expensive earrings back in his rookie year. I remember being so down on him at that time like who does this guy think he is wearing earrings during a football game?? Mind you, it was early in the season so I wasn’t sold on him yet mainly due to the fact that I was salty from the season prior and thought that no matter who they bring in at rb they’re just gonna struggle like the previous ones. Negative? Yes, absolutely! You would be to if you watched the chargers offense from ‘96-‘00 (Good thing we had Seau and Harrison dominating during those years). Back to LT, boy was I wrong about him… This guy was special and so elite at his position. He was like the second coming of Barry Sanders which I idolized dearly growing up and to have one of our own just made it more sweeter! And because of his greatness he changed the culture of the fan base and brought the excitement back to SD the same way he did during his time in TCU. I feel really fortunate to have witnessed his greatness during my lifetime.⚡️⚡️⚡️

    If there is Lightning let there be Thunder⚡️LT⚡️

Nyire Grant

From New Jersey and LT made me a Chargers fan! Born in 1995 so perfect timing!

Scottie Pimpin

My favorite runningback of alltime

Tim jensen

Someone needs to investigate into telesco.. I think he’s secretly a chiefs broncos or raider fan no way this dude can build a team only thru drafts and suck as bad as he does 90% of his picks are either not in league on another teams practice squad or another team that we let walk and got nothing for.. doubt me? Look for your self yeah he’s that bad I could draft blind folded picking names randomly out of a hat and do better

    TK L

    As much as I’m pissed at the current situation of the team he did get us a lot of good players.

    R6 Steeev88

    Yeah, he’s had a lot of bad picks. He’s had some good ones who no longer play with us, but you can’t deny – Herbert, James, Slater, Allen, Bosa, Williams, Nwosu, Tranquill, White have all been good picks.

    Then there’s FA and undrafted – The o-line this year is much improved, Hayward, Ekeler, Linsley to name but a few.

    So, yeah, he’s missed, but he sure has hit a lot. Compare him to other GM’s, how many have actually done better?

This guys the reason I’m a bolts fan.

Anthonie Weyland

I been waiting 15 years to see this ! ⚡👆

slee787

Kevin Sanchez

He had 28 running touchdowns. 31 total in the season

miggymaxx Deleon

This Legend is the Reason a lot of us are die hard chargers fans, and seeing him stick around with the team and cover media and be at the games etc…just shows how much he still loves this team. Even through all the pain, he stays, just like us.

    turtle19dad

    He never forgot where he came from.

A- DUB

Equally with his playing. I remember Lts class and humbleness. Absolute legendary player and as It goes equal legendary human being.

MerkinMuffly

Favorite moment has to be when they beat the Dolphins in 82 playoffs where Kellen Winslow put the team on his back, blocking a field goal after blowing a 24-0 first quarter lead. Still the greatest game ever.

    turtle19dad

    Yeah. I was hooked too bro.

JakeUchiha95

I was 10 years old. I came from a Chargers family but this. This team is what made me the Chargers fan I truly became. Excited for this series.

Aiden Stanton

the GOAT

The L Boogie Speaks Too Show

The Chargers need to make an effort to run the Football. Another Chargers legend Running Back could emerge. The Organization is content with using their Backs as an extra receiver. There will be no Super Bowl without a more balanced Attack.

Silentazn89

One of my favorite moments is money badgers broke the longest kick in chargers history.

venomhi

Notice how when they talking about history, it’s the chargers, but when they talk about today, its the Los Angelas Chargers.

Angel Chavez

As a kid growing up watching these Chargers made me a die hard fan. LT is the best running back of this century.

maoscott

LT and his mother are such wonderful human beings.

pokerus916 !
