Great article from ESPN about how tough DBs have it now in a pass-happy modern NFL.

If you can't knock it down you basically have to let them catch it and start running before you can tackle them. Gee, no wonder Marinos once untouchable yardage record is in jeopardy now that WRs are untouchable. :rolleyes:

I completely agree how do you expect dbs to play the way they were taught with the flag happy referees and refs always miss the call of offensive pass interference
