It is popular opinion that the passing game rules offenses in the NFL, and the run is used to pick up first downs and make defenses play closer to the line.
I think the future of NFL offenses will be to use 2 WR's that are Michael Vick prototypes---very fast and who can run, catch, and throw equally well in addditon to the starting QB. This will allow the QB to throw the ball to either side of the field, thus avoiding game-controlling rushes like the Vikings use. The WR/QB can read the defense, elect to run if they are playing "back", or throw the ball to a "hot" receiver---maybe even the starting QB or RB on a route out of the pocket. Of course the starting QB can still execute conventional pass and run plays as usual. This will make defenses unable to focus on rushing the passer or run blitzing and spread the field as never before.
I think Jared Allen prototypes are the future of NFL defenses. Somewhat smaller, extremely developed physically, but very fast with incredible 4-quarter stamina. I think the future NFL offensive lineman will have to match this trend along similar lines to be competitive. I think the days of the slower, bulkier, and less agile player are coming to an end.
