Obscure sports trivia

No, but not a bad guess. Riggs never led the NFL in rushing touchdowns. Closest he came was in 1991, when he tied for third with 11 while only rushing for 248 yards.

 

That's the season I was thinking of.

 

How about Brandon Jacobs?

 

Different position on offense.

 

I think Johnny Hector is one.

 

Bradshaw?

 

Is LeGarrette Blount one?

 

Same conference.....

 

And I just remembered Bradshaw is still alive.

How about Kenny Stabler?

 

That is one of them. The Jets' Johnny Hector scored 11 touchdowns, tied with the Rams' Charles White for the NFL lead, on only 435 yards in 1987.

No to LeGarrette Blount and Brandon Jacobs. Blount had 1,161 yards the only time he led the league in TDs, in 2016. Jacobs never led the league in touchdowns. He scored 15 in 2008, which was only tied for third, and also had 1,089 yards that season.

 

Mike Alstott?

 

started thinking: Karim Abdul Jabbar is one. I spent a lot of years wasting fantasy picks on him. There also is a random Seahawk. He was in my prime years or devouring NFL, but can’t think of the name. He was after Warner but before Warren.
