I graduated from TCU so I have a little bias toward this subject, but....
If LT never played another down of football...or he came back at
less than full-strength and played a few very sub par years...
Would he make the NFL Hall of Fame based on career to date?
-- 18th all-time on career rushing yards (after only 7 seasons). Everyone above
him (except for Edgerren James and Jim Brown with 9) has at leat 10 seasons.
-- Third on rushing touchdowns
-- Best all-time ratio of TDs per game (1.16 compared to 1.07 for Jim Brown;
no one else close to 1.0). Also he is the only 10,000 yard rusher to average more
than one rushing touchdown (1.04) per game.
-- Among 10,000 yard rushers, he has the third best yard per game average (95.9)
and second best yards per season average (1521, behind only Barry Sander's 1527).
-- One MVP and two rushing titles
-- Record for rushing touchdowns, touchdowns and scoring in a season
-- Tied record for most consecutive games with a touchdown (1
-- Only second player to have at least 1200 yards in each of his first 7 seasons
and many other accomplishments.
