and teams generally can't just run the ball every time and win 10-3 type games like they did back then. these pass happy teams will score some points.

I'd say it's easier to be a run heavy team now than it was back then. Defenses are built to defend the spread. If you have a good, physical OL and a good RB, you will wreck these defenses. That's how we won our first 3 titles under Saban. These defenses are too small to last a full game against a heavy running offense.

yes but those teams score points though, so they dont' need a good defense to still pull out some wins. that's my point. the pass happy offenses gives those teams a chance, kind of like the 3 point shot gives small teams a chance in basketball.
