And Bell is an even better hitter.
A tone setter wouldn't put up with those collective performances. When Burfict was in his prime, others feed off his mentality. He single handedly put us in a position to beat the Steelers in the playoffs. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a great defense that doesn't have a tone setter that also is a great player. We don't have that now and it shows.
