Jahmyr Gibbs, man, this dude just doesn’t stop. After putting up another two touchdowns in Sunday’s absolute beatdown, a 45-24 win against the Arizona Cardinals, he told reporters straight up that he’s eyeing Hall of Famer LaDainian Tomlinson’s absurd single-season record of 31 touchdowns.
Gibbs Is On An Absolute Tear This Season
You hear that? Thirty-one scores in one season. Gibbs didn’t mince words either, saying, “For sure, I’m trying to get that.” And honestly? You’ve gotta believe him. This guy has been a touchdown machine since he hit the league. We’re only five weeks into the season, and he’s already racked up seven rushing touchdowns and two receiving touchdowns. That’s NINE total scores already! That’s a ridiculous pace! He’s leading the entire league with 132 touches, showing he’s the absolute engine of that offense. They’ve made him the focal point, and it’s paying off big time.
Smashing Records While Chasing History
But wait, it gets crazier. Gibbs already smashed a record no one’s even talking about enough: 58 career touchdowns before he even turns 25. FIFTY-EIGHT! That’s one more than freaking Lions legend Barry Sanders had at the same age. Think about that for a second. Barry Sanders! This kid is already in that kind of elite company. So when he says he’s coming for Tomlinson’s 31, it’s not some pie-in-the-sky dream. He’s got the talent, the usage, and the absolute drive to make a real run at it. The NFL needs to pay attention, because this is special.
Next up, it’s a huge Week 6 showdown for the Lions. They’re sitting at 3-2 and they’re facing off against their NFC North rival, the Green Bay Packers, who are also sitting at 3-2. This isn’t just about divisional bragging rights. This is about Gibbs continuing his march into rare air. Every single snap is going to matter if he’s serious about making history *this year*. You gotta watch this.
