LaDainian Tomlinson

Marshall Faulk

Randy Moss

LDT and Holmes check.  Not the other two.   LDT #1 on the list by the way.  #2 is also a guy known mainly by the initials of his first and middle name.

Jerry Rice

Marcus Allen

Missed this earlier.  Check on Rice.   No on Allen.   Rice the only receiver on the list. 

Only 3 of the 10 named so far....will leave open until later today.

The question asked for post merger players only.     Jim Brown very well may have scored TDs in 11 consecutive games, both only pre-merger.

[The Gipper]

Since the merger, in 1970  name those players who have streaks of  scoring a TD in 11 consecutive games or more.  (rushing or receiving...though, hint: only one name is a receiver).  10 names. 

Answers:

LaDanian Tomlinson  18 games

OJ Simpson 14

Todd Gurley  13

Jerry Rice  13

George Rogers  13

John Riggins  13

Arian Foster 11

Marshawn Lynch 11

Priest Holmes  11

Emmitt Smith  11.

In searching for JIm Browns record in this regard,    I found that Lenny Moore also scored TDs in 18 consecutive games.....pre-merger, same as LDT.

Check on Moon and Vinny.   Remember, I said there were no RBs on the list.    Cunningham was close, in like Top 15, but not Top Ten
