I mean, the league evolves, and the 2012-13 Seahawks in particular ran a *ton* of RPO and designed runs to Russell Wilson. It might have been harder to suss out because he tended to pass more often on those plays than most RPO quarterbacks (and he turned into a pretty pass-heavy guy as he progressed in his career, which is usually not the way RPO quarterbacks age) but I watched that team a lot and they ran RPO stuff fairly often.

Also of course the 49ers came very, very close to getting into the Owl in 2014, losing out to the (RPO) Seahawks in the NFCCG on a last-second interception in the end zone by Richard Sherman.
