History

Historical Context

In 1978, the NFL implemented the offensive pass interference rule to boost scoring, following a "Dead Ball Era" where teams averaged just 17.2 points per game. This change resulted in a 30% increase in offensive production. As the Philadelphia Eagles, currently ranked 30th in total offense, face the Minnesota Vikings, they must adapt to these evolving strategies to enhance their playoff prospects.
