  • Nfl Press Box Notes – Week 14
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 6, 2006 NFL PRESS BOX NOTES – WEEK 14 CHARGED UP: San Diego Chargers running back LA DAINIAN TOMLINSON leads the NFL with 26 total touchdowns. Tomlinson ties MARSHALL FAULK (26, 2000) for the third most in a season, and needs three touchdowns in his final four games to pass SHAUN ALEXANDER (28, 2005) for the most in history. With 308 touches on scrimmage plays through 12 games, Tomlinson is scoring once every 11.85 touches. If he continues at this pace, he will have the fewest touches per score among players with the most touchdowns in a season. Following are the touches per score among players with the most touchdowns in a season: PLAYER TEAM YEAR TOUCHDOWNS TOUCHES TOUCH/TD Marshall Faulk St. Louis 2000 26 334 12.85 Shaun Alexander Seattle 2005 28 385 13.75 Priest Holmes Kansas 2003 27 394 14.59 City John Riggins Washington 1983 24 380 15.83 Priest Holmes Kansas 2002 24 383 15.96 City Emmitt Smith Dallas 1995 25 439 17.56 LaDainian San Diego 2006 26 308 11.85* Tomlinson * Through 12 games TIMELY TURNAROUNDS: With four weeks left to play in the season, there are four teams -- the Baltimore Ravens (9-3), New Orleans Saints (8-4), New York Jets (7-5) and Philadelphia Eagles (6-6) – in first place or within two games of first in their divisions after finishing in (or tying for) last place last season. Twenty-six teams in history have won their divisions after finishing last the year before. Two teams have accomplished the feat in each of the past three seasons -- the NFL’s longest such streak.

  • Kellen Winslow
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 17, No. 1 (1995) KELLEN WINSLOW By Don Smith Thanks to a last-second trade with the Cleveland Browns, the San Diego Chargers were able to select Kellen Winslow in the first round of the 1979 NFL draft. It turned out to be a masterful move because Winslow, a 6-5, 250-pound consensus all-America tight end from Missouri, became an instant super-star and a powerful contributor to the NFL's most prolific offense in the early 1980s. Injuries limited his playing time on certain occasions and eventually caused him to retire in 1987 after just nine seasons. But when Winslow did play, he performed so spectacularly that opposition defenders lay awake nights wondering if there was any legal way to stop him. Altogether, he caught 541 passes for 6,741 yards and 45 touchdowns. At the time of his retirement, he ranked fifth in receptions among active players and 12th among the all-time leading receivers. He is only the fourth tight end to be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Mike Ditka became the first Hall of Fame tight end in 1988 and he was followed by John Mackey in 1992 and Jackie Smith in 1994. Winslow's first few years in the NFL were, by his own admission, "like a fantasy." He began his rookie season on a high note with a team-leading 25 receptions in seven games before a broken leg suffered in the seventh game ended his season. But he bounced back a year later as good as ever with a career- high and NFL-leading 89 receptions, best ever for a tight end up to that time.
