I will buy that Willis is way better than Bishop. Just for discussion, another factor to consider is the "drop-off" beyond the player that is injured. Said another way, I would rather lose a top player who has an up-and-comer behind him (e.g. Woodson and Burnett) rather than a "good" player with no one to back him up (e.g. Bishop). So, though Bishop himself doesn't carry the defense like Willis does, having a pedestrian Jones manning the middle really hurts the Packers. If I could have any one of the Packers injured back... it would be Bishop in a heartbeat. And, against the 49ers, having a soft interior LB crew (Hawk was never known to have Bishop's aggressiveness), is a serious problem.</blockquote>
