Who you got in their prime? Marshal Faulk or LaDanian Tomlinson

[ham city]

Marshall is my favorite RB of all time after Barry but I think LT is the slightly better running back, and I'm a Raider.

If you put Marshall in SD with the same guys around him I'm not convinced he puts up a handful of +1500 yard seasons.

Amp Lee > Tomlinson.

with the same injury bug

Priest Holmes

Both are great but I'll take lt , he'd run for a td catch a td and throw a td pass all in the same game when in his prime

Saying its not close is disrespectful to how nice LT was...I've noticed its become really cool to hate on LT for whatever reason on here.

cause he's a #%++%.....not playing that playoff game and crying like a little %*++# when my boys celebrated on that weak *$% charges logo 

 

[airjordan jb23]

Faulk...

 

[illwill24]

Yeh yall must not seen this guy play for the Colts and the 99-01 seasons with the Rams...Marshall Faulk did everything for his team, running, catching...this guy invented the yards from scrimmage stat for running backs. The multiple 2,000 all purpose yard seasons...and that toughness that LT seems to lack in the big games

 

[trelvis tha thrilla]

L.T.

Dude was a touchdown machine.

Come on man. Tomlinson has over 1,000 more career rushing yards, 45 more rushing TD's, and less fumbles. Faulk was a better receiver but L.T. has still scored more TD's. It depends on what you are looking for from your RB but to say its not close is ridiculous.

 

[adrian1221]

ill take the one with the higher QB rating

in all seriousness, i love MF, but growing up watching LT sunday after sunday its hard to decide this one.

The homer in me says LT, though

 

[rawex5]

Faulk. He was amazing.

Marshall Faulk and i wouldn't think twice about it

 

[bjm5295]

throw mental toughness out the window and ill take LT.

since you cant do that, ill take Faulk in a minute.

 

[dt43]

LT was a touchdown machine on those Chargers teams, but i'd have more confidence in Faulk succeeding with any given system/o-line than LT. he was just more versatile.

My dude

One of the most exciting and versatile players to ever do it.

[jfmartimcdandruff]

Marshall Faulk in his prime was one of the BEST all purpose running backs ever.

LT is the man as well, but Faulk in the backfield is enough to make the defense cringe

Those Brons 

 I had those 

Marshal gets even more respect from me just for that.

 

[jordanxi45]

Both were amazing in their prime but if I had to pick, I'm going with Faulk. Dude was a beast vs my 49ers.

 

[pacmagic2002]

I hate the rams and dont care for the colts......i sort of like the chargers.

on that note........Marshall and it aint even close

 

[Peep Game]

LT cause I hated the Rams back then. That 1 single Chargers game people reference pretty much stains his
reputation, but I'll go with him anyway. No slight to Faulk though, really didn't appreciate him til after he retired.

 

[gangsta207therevolution]

Marshall when healthy.

LT didn't make defenses cringe?

Faulk
