Would LaDanian Tomlinson make a better SAINT, or Viking?

by LA_No1_SaintFan on Mar 11, 2010 1:17 AM CST

I know that most people here have stated that they feel like LT is washed up. I believe the consensus is that he still wants to be the feature back somwhere and he would never come to the SAINTS to be a role player. He's in Minnesota right now, so you know he's accepted playing second fiddle. So do you think he can help the vikings? Considering they were in the last NFCCG, can he help them get over the hump? The real question that I want to put to you is will we regret it if he ends up in a viking uniform instead of a SAINT uniform?

I think some of us are getting a little too high on the hog lately...

Yes, we did win a Super Bowl, but next season is a new season. If we want to stay on top, we have to learn to play keep away. It’s better to have LT riding pine in NO than to have him lined up in the backfield with Brett Favre. Please try to remember that Brett, as ancient as he is, had a hell of a year and was only about 6 yards away from beating us to get to the Super Bowl, and LT is a much better backup than Chester Taylor

In the beginning, Mr. T created the heavens and the earth. And Mr. T said, "Let there be fools"; and there were fools. And Mr. T saw that the fools were bad; and pitied them.

Interesting fact of the day: Mr. T once beat a man to death with his own corpse.

As a long time Saints fan...

living in San Diego, I’ve watched L.T. run for quite a while now. Imho, he has lost a step…but he is far from “done”… in the right spot, he could make some noise. The Vikings choice surprises me, Chester Taylor is an excellent blocker, that’s gotta be a factor. Ladianian is not really known for his blocking skills…but who knows?

Boom +1 Rec'd that

LT is not done by no means……………Diego’s system and turf toe got him down, not to mention plain old fustration. He could thrive in Paytons system…………….LT could push Reggie’s buttons and make him a better back. LT and Reggie on the field at the same time would be the best tandem in the league. Throw in some PT and Hamilton and it would blow your mind. I get chills thinking about it. This would provide so much more versaitility than Mike Bell due to his inability as a reciever. LT, Reggie and PT are all very versatile and not as predictable. I also feel that LT wants to be in N.O. Nuff said………………
