Several surprising names have made this list. To note, Cedric Benson had six TDs through eleven games before he was hurt, meaning that he and Thomas Jones have combined for seventeen TDs this year. The Chicago Bears have a total of twenty-seven TDs on the year, with six coming on the ground. Other surprises are LaDainian Tomlinson, Ricky Williams and Joe Addai, all of whom had essentially been written off as being no longer effective in the NFL. Two San Francisco 49ers make the list, mildly shocking considering both are playing for a 6-7 team. If you’re curious abut the lack of New Orleans Saints’ personnel in the top 15, note that they have four players ranked between fifteen and thirty.
