How often do guys get that many carries and continue being the best RB in the league in there 9th year at 30 (almost 31) years old?

The guys getting smaller and better in pass coverage has helped his longevity, he's getting hit by 230lb LBs and 200lb safeties who are basically corner sized. 20 years ago he'd have been getting hit by LB's that were 250+ and safeties who were headhunting.
