I honestly don't know. Certainly don't endorse all of it, just find them interesting.

Doing some reading and it seems to emphasize 2 things.

1) consistency and not taking plays off. The reality is that fewer snaps could help this score versus someone who is on the field for 60 snaps. It is hard to go 100% for 4 quarters without a break.

2) havoc plays. Again, fewer snaps may make this a higher percentage of plays.

This is a per play score. Being tired in the 4th quarter will have a negative effect.
