But then explain guys like Drew Brees who at Purdue made the spread so popular was rewriting the passing records in college and high school in the 90's.


This has been factually proven that the NFL for the first time is taking the lead from the lower levels. Today's kids are more NFL ready than at any time in the history of football and it did not start do to any rule change the NFL passed.


But, if you want to attribute rules changing as the only reason for the numbers today, then go ahead discount the other ten variables in force here.
