You have to go way back to 1939 when Doug Russell with the Chicago Cardinals lead the league with 499 yards, but was unable to score a rushing touchdown that season.

1939 is the wrong year. The 1939 Rushing title went to Bill Osmanski of the Chicago Bears. He had 699 yards and 7 TD's:

1935 is the year Doug Russell had the rushing title and zero TD's.
