That depends on what you mean by better. No one on the DL or LB can get after the QB like those two do. But like I said, they have too many plays that they will try and penetrate and make plays while abandoning their assignments, leaving holes in the D. Those holes often lead to big plays allowed. Most of the yardage we gave up to SF in the running game, which was almost exclusively the reason we dropped in the run D to the bottom part of the league, can be traced by to the plays allowed.
Players lie Lissemore, Mathews, and Unrein may lack the big play potential, but the run D would be a lot better with guys like them playing a lot more. I would rather see us play them. They are solid players. But it will hurt our inside pass rush. I just think we come out way ahead if the nobodies are playing rather then average the few big plays and big plays allowed.
