37-47 years of training, size increase of players, coaching, tape study and methods? I don't think they would. Fluke plays happen though.
watching these NFL playoff games, these players are so Big, fast, focused, and strong. My memories of the 1980's Cleveland Browns AFC Championship Game teams, I can't see Kevin Mack getting more than 30yards rushing against the defense's.....or Webster Slaughter taking a hit from one of these current day safeties.
what say you? Am I a victim of what's seen most recent is just the most accurate?
