(Jan. 1, 2006) -- Seattle running back Shaun Alexander set the NFL mark for touchdowns and vaulted ahead of the New York Giants' Tiki Barber for the NFL rushing title in a game against the Green Bay Packers.On third-and-goal at the 1, Alexander took a handoff from Matt Hasselbeck, got a block from fullback Mack Strong and raised his hand in triumph as he scored his 28th touchdown of the season. Alexander's 100th career TD came with 13 minutes remaining in the second quarter.Alexander, who broke the mark set by Priest Holmes in 2003, carried the ball eight of the last nine plays of the 69-yard scoring drive.Just before halftime, Alexander's 3-yard run put him at 1,863 -- 3 yards ahead of Barber for the NFL rushing title.Moments later, Alexander lost a fumble for the first time this season.Barber had 203 yards rushing in the Giants' 30-21 victory against the Oakland Raiders on Dec. 31, giving him 1,860 yards on the season -- 53 more than Alexander heading into the Seahawks-Packers game.This season, Alexander became the only NFL player to score at least 15 touchdowns in five consecutive seasons and became the 16th player to rush for 1,800 yards in a season.</div>http://www.nfl.com/teams/story/SEA/9133309Congradulations Shaun Alexander.
