That's not really how that works.
If you took my player and put me on a team without any other good DL players and implemented the current OL changes being discussed. I would still get plenty of glory stats for myself. I'd probably end up with about 4 tackles and a sack each game.
Teams can function like this because they can compensate for the bad DL with LBs/S.
It's apples and oranges imho.
