Some of them "yes" and some of them "no". For example one of them is a twist stunt and Barnett just blows past the inside guy who is supposed to block him.
But the thing is that you are completely missing a huge point. Offenses run these plays all the time and the unblocked player does not get close to making a play. The fact that he makes plays when he is unaccounted for is not a bad thing. It just shows how he can make plays that other DEs can not. That is one of the things that makes Barnett elite. But he also beats guys straight up and blows around them with speed.
