Tomlinson's Streak Ends At 18
24th October, 2005 - 1:58 am
ESPN - San Diego's LaDainian Tomlinson saw his NFL record-tying streak of games scoring a touchdown end Sunday at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles' defense.

The Eagles held Tomlinson to a career-low 7 yards rushing on 17 carries and kept him out of the end zone to end his streak at 18 consecutive games with a TD.

In his worst game as a pro, Tomlinson, who came in with 652 yards rushing and 13 TDs combined, lost yards on each of his first four carries and didn't have positive yards until the fourth quarter. He shares the NFL record for consecutive games scoring touchdowns with Baltimore's Lenny Moore, who scored in 18 straight from 1963-65.

"It's not so much a disappointment," Tomlinson said. "I've had a great run at it." [READ]
