guys have gotten so much stronger and faster over the last 10-20 years, and you now see a ton more big time hits than you did just a few years back. I think you see it more with the linebackers and the safeties who like to come up and hit.
I also think that poor tackling may play a lesser role as well esp since it seems a lot of these guys cant realy tackle and just try going for that highlight reel hit.
I think now that the first group of these types of players of this era are retiring we will see how many start suffering problems at younger ages.
