The era of the great runningbacks and run game is returning. The pendulum is swinging back.
I highly doubt that. What makes you think the pendulum is swinging back? Because Fournette is playing well?

Having a great back is a wonderful thing but that back has to be able to do more than just run the ball. They have to be good/great pass catchers too. Cook, Fournette, Chubb, Zeke, Carson, CMac are all leading rushers and all have 20+ catches.

Receiving backs are nothing new. Just a bit more prevalent right now than they've been historically. 

Lots of guys that had multiple years of high receiving numbers from days gone by:
Larry Centers, Thurman Thomas, Ray Rice, Eric Metcalf, Tony Dorsett, Emmitt Smith, James Jones, Ahman Green, Kevin Faulk, Reggie Bush,Tiki Barber, Marcus Allen, Marshall Faulk, heck even Fred Taylor had 286 career catches.
