Whitlock:LaDainian Tomlinson will never start another game in a San Diego uniform

FOX Sports on MSN - NFL Review - NFL Truths: Peyton's a choker, LT is done in S.D.

Man, this is a bad day for me. LT and Peyton Manning are two of my favorite players, but I have to keep it real.

LT's injury saved the Chargers. With a healthy LT, Sproles never gets his chance to dominate the Colts. Darren "Seabiscuit" Sproles is an every-down back. Yes, he's small, but the Biscuit, like the legendary undersized thoroughbred, is made to run with the big dogs.

I've been watching Seabiscuit make fools of bigger men ever since he starred at Olathe North High School, 20 minutes from my home. When he signed with Kansas State, I had my doubts. He put a clown suit on me and everyone in the Big 12.

What he did to the Colts on Saturday — 328 all-purpose yards — did not surprise anyone who saw him play in high school and college. The Biscuit is off the chains.

LT should be on the trading block this offseason. He'd be a wonderful addition to the Patriots.

I know I treat NFL players like they're on my fantasy team sometimes but I really wondered last year if SD should tradeTomlinson and re-sign Rivers. Tomlinson had a lot of miles on the legs and RB don't last forever.

Honestly, I'm content with the quad of morris, maroney, jordan, and faulk...

I'm sorry, but :wha: doesn't cut it. This calls for

Then again, seeing as he thought the Patriots should sign Jeff George, I really shouldn't be that surprised.

That column also goes on at length to equate Matt Millen and OJ Simpson.

Please, no more Whitlock links, at least not with the suggestion they be taken seriously.

I'd take Sproles over LT at this stage

The fat man from Kansas City lives by the shock value statements. At least he kept race out of it this time, in the three points of his I read anyway. His point #8 is right on.

was that a joke?

Re: OT: Whitlock-LaDainian Tomlinson will never start another game in a San Diego uni

A few weeks back I heard someone speculate that his could be LTs last year period nevermind as a Charger. But basically I recall the bit saying that the injuries and tough playoff loses have been taking its toll on LT and that he seems really down about football. This is many weeks old paraphrasing and I can't remember where I heard or read this so take it for what it is.

He'd be a wonderful addition to the Patriots.... Funny line.

I always thought he was a juicer based on the stories that he would have great 1st half play and then fall off significantly in the 2nd half. Whatever. Classless POS.

That this guy has a job in sports journalism speaks volumes to the state of the industry.
His skill level would be tragic if it wasn't so pathetic!

Whitlock is one of the worst writers in the NFL. This column just provides further evidence of that.

I stopped reading when he drew a comparison with being the worst general manager in NFL history, and getting away with double homicide!

Whitlock is hit or miss. Some of his articles, particularly on controversial topics like race/culture are a joy to read since it shows that finally a journalist isn't afraid to tell the truth. When he is more direct in his reporting of the sport, he falls a little short.

I'd rather draft a guy in the 2nd or 3rd round, not trade/sign a back on the downside of his career.

Re: OT: Whitlock-LaDainian Tomlinson will never start another game in a San Diego uni

Considering the Chargers will not be able to afford two #1 backs next year they will either let him go or cut LT.

If LT is done, why would he be a good addition to ANY team, let alone the Patriots who have a great stable of RBs?

What tough playoff losses? They are all easy for him. Just run 3 plays and then go pout on the sideline for the rest of the game.

LT is finished.

I'd rather have some guy Beli found off the street than LT.

Maybe we can trade Lawrence Maroney for him, one injury prone player for another.
