Defensive linemen back in the late 60s and 70s were almost a protected class who couldn't do wrong and they were media darlings.


Look how many of them were either either became faces of the game or got huge media/Hollywood jobs.

Merlin Olson, Joe Green, Deacon Jones, Bubba Smith, Alex Karras, etc, etc.

I think they were considered far more "freaks of nature" to be that big and that athletic back then as opposed to now, and the media ate them up.
