But, given how important fantasy and gambling are to the NFL, I assume rule changes will come rather than face a dead ball era of football.

That's always bee the cycle. Defense trails offense whenever new offensive schemes or rules are implemented but eventually some of the brightest defensive minds will find a solution. I just hope the NFL doesn't overcorrect with more rule changes as I do think some of this is attributed to changeover at the QB position with a large group of HOF level QB's retiring this decade.
