The talent of the Dline of that team was far superior to the talent of the oline of 2019.

Again, though, the talent wasn't high enough to generate pressure with 4. That's an issue against 2019.

2011 could do that.

2003 required Saban's exotic (at that time) blitzing scheme to generate pressure.

It's an indictment on the pass rush ability of the DL

And how'd that work out for the Heisman trophy winner....with his 154 total yards of offense in the championship game?

if you're trying to convince me that Spears/Williams/Lavalais/Hill are somehow not that good on the DL, then it's simply not going to work. They proved themselves in college as well as the NFL.

That's not accurate. Choosing to run a zone blitz scheme to confuse opponents is not the same as not talented enough "to generate pressure with four." Many sacks came from zone blitz design that only brought 4, just not the 4 expected.

Lavalais alone had 7 sacks and 16 TFLs. That's a DT. I'm not going to accept without any evidence at all that Spears, Hill, Williams, and Lavalais aren't enough talent to get pressure with 4.
