I don’t think there’s any question that the Chargers’ 2006 season should be viewed as the team’s best season this century. That squad finished with a 14-2 record which was propelled by the incredible and record-breaking performance of running back LaDainian Tomlinson.
By the year’s end, Tomlinson had rushed for over 1,815 yards and scored 31 total touchdowns, showing off the incredible versatility that led plenty of fantasy football pundits to also name claim it as arguably the best fantasy season in history.
Without much thought, you could rightfully assume this was one of the best overall seasons by a running back in NFL history.
