I have seen some articles on int but not sure I’ve ever read a real thorough report.

Also, like you said, we’re not really in the Era of find-a-stud-runningback-and-run-him-25-times-per-game anymore.

One other thing that I thought of is the way that offensive lines are built now vs 15 years ago. It seemed like in the Marshall Faulk/Shaun Alexander/LaDainian Tomlinson days, their O-lines were specifically built to be human road graders. With the college shift to higher tempo and more spread attacks, incoming lineman seem like they’re more well suited to NFL pass-protection.
