The term “practice” at the Pro Bowl is somewhat misleading. It’s the slowest-moving football practice one could ever watch.

Chargers RB LaDainian Tomlinson told a San Diego radio station Monday that he wasn’t happy with his role this season, when he had career lows in carries (223) and rushing yards (730).

Dallas’ Wade Phillips, San Diego’s Norv Turner and their staffs will be the coaches for the NFC and AFC, respectively, in the Pro Bowl.

After another busy Monday in the NFL, here’s some news you might have missed.

The Chargers, Raiders and Chiefs are in trouble. The Lions are getting better, but let’s not expect too much. And the Buccaneers — how about living a little? This is all in Around the Web.

Fantasy owners, LaDainian Tomlinson’s time as an elite fantasy running back are over. That was pretty evident on Monday night.

LaDainian Tomlinson is motivated to show he still has what it takes to be an elite running back at the age of 30.

Chargers LB Shawne Merriman reported to training camp Monday, along with quarterbacks, rookies and other players coming off injuries.

Lost in all of the LaDainian Tomlinson turmoil in San Diego is Shawne Merriman and his rehabilitation from his knee injury. The loss of Merriman had a huge impact on the Chargers’ defense, which registered 42 sacks in 2007 but only 28 in 2008.

LaDainian Tomlinson‘s future with the Chargers might be the most discussed non-Super Bowl story of the week. And it took another interesting turn Thursday. In his chat on NFL.com, analyst Gil Brandt reported that Tomlinson likely will remain with San Diego in 2009.

It has become a ritual all around the league — team loses playoff game, team makes coaching changes. The Chargers made a handful of coaching changes on Tuesday.
