Footballoutsiders ranks the D-line by itself instead of "front seven".
Bengals ranked 30th in "adjusted line yards" (rushing stat that gives D-line more credit for tackles for loss and less blame for yards gained more than 10 yards past line of scrimmage), 29th in "power success rate" (rushing short yardage situation stat), and 30th is "stuffed rate" (tackles for loss or zero gain in any situation). But they were 16th in "adjusted sack rate".

Personally I think it is more appropriate to lump the front 7 together in run defense because LBs also have run gap assignments..
