Yep



You need to try that math again. While they often run 3-4, they really run a hybrid defense. But it's not even as simple as saying 2 of 4, since you're suggesting that their 3rd OLB is a third of the the line. If we count all 2nd stringers in addition to the starters, you're talking 2 of the 10 players who routinely played on the D line. 

So 20%. Which is not our "whole line". 

I'll try to give you the same out I offered when you got your panties in a bunch about Jeremy Hill. All you have to say is "I exaggerated when I said you lost your whole line, but the Ravens will probably have trouble replacing such a dominating anchor for their D line". 

You probably won't, though. 

I exaggerated, but your loss in production is far worse than just saying 20%.

I said you MIGHT BE BETTER OFF WITHOUT HIM, and it's right there for everyone to see.

I also love how you continue to ignore that the two pieces you lost were the most important parts of a 3-4, and they were the best on the team at the position by a long shot.

It was all explained before. Why do you keep saying no one responded/answered any of your questions?
 WTF??? 2/3? Did you NOT know Mcphee was NOT a starter? And played in less than 50% of the Defensive snaps!?? He was part of a rotation. Sometimes I question your fottball IQ or IQ period.

So, just having something in mind means that they'll magically replace to very good, very productive pieces of a defense?

See above about McPhee, but I guess guys that get 7.5 sacks just grow on trees, right?  Just because he was in a rotation, doesn't mean that his numbers and impact don't count.

Also, Ngata was a HUGE reason for your success on D.  Without the suspension, he was on pace to play in 65% of the defensive snaps.
