Rogers and Franklin are being used as NT's. Their job isn't to get sacks. Ellis has been a disappointment, especially in a year where we finally gave him some legit NT's to work with. Jordan doesn't get many pass rushing opportunities and he's been almost there a bunch of times.
Still the LB Corp for me, they've improved lately but for most of the year they've been atrocious. Missed tackles and they've been at fault for nearly every big run against our defense because they plugged the wrong gap. I'm just glad Wilson is starting to get reps. I feel that he'll be used a lot more in the playoffs, a new wrinkle to our defense that teams don't have much game tape on.
You are right JD, regarding the NTs and sack numbers and maybe I should not have included those guys. While cutting Jordan some slack with the points you mentioned, coupled with the short training camp and I had to choose one guy this year who was most disappointing to me on D: I'd say Ellis and I have been big on this guy since day 1. However, he (Ellis) seems to be playing better as of late.
