Sure I can. Ngata is beastly vs. the run, same with Smith and Watt. Campbell is very good, but behind them as far as consistently being dominant goes.
All of them create just as much pressure on the quarterback as Campbell.
how is Calais not consistent?...and his tackle numbers are higher than all of those others, which does suggest he is just as good if not better against the run...

That's probably true. If a d-lineman gets 10 tackles like Campbell did, he 99.9 percent for sure didn't have a poor game vs. the run and you don't have to watch the game to know that.
I'm not talking about Campbell's game last week. He was great in all aspects. He's just as likely to have a game like that next week as he is to be average at best vs. the run though, which is what I am saying when it comes to comparing to the other guys.
Look no further than the week prior vs. The Seahawks. I actually saw that game on Rewind and Campbell wasn't really impacting on run defense. Dockett was the clear cut best DLineman that day.
I'm not saying Campbell is a bad run defender either. He's very good, just not dominant week in and week out like those other 3.
Watt is amazing. A 3-4 end with 7.5 sacks in 4 games? Extremely impressive. I wonder what the sack record is for a 3-4 end? Wiki states Bruce Smith was a 3-4 end most of his career, so 19 sacks by Bruce Smith?
