This is your classic "Well back in my day the NFL was tougher!"

The players today play at such a higher speed that if they hit people like they did back in the 70s, players would probably die. If Butkus and his 5.7 40 time hits a RB, it's not as bad as a LB with 4.4 speed hitting a WR running at 4.4 speed. The game is different now and that's not a bad thing no matter how many times people want to claim that the players are "softer".

It's how they hit people....

They basically ripped your head off....

Why do you think only tough WRs caught over the middle of the field....

Shoot Keenan was clobbered a bunch and QBs were destroyed....Brunell blasted in the ear hole....

and the Brunell hit was not close to what it was 10 years before that
Being a dirty player doesn't make you tougher.

And the NFL players today are just smarter. They are trying to play for longer and live healthier lives after football. No need to try and take a guys head off because you aren't given extra points for dirty plays.
