[Man of Steel] Had Superman not been there, could the members of the League on earth have still dealt with Zod?

I know Zod arrived DUE to Superman's presence, but lets just say Clark was not for some reason and Zod tracked down the ship and arrived on earth anyways, could the heroes on earth have protected Metropolis? 

We know the members of the league had their respective powers while the events of MoS were unfolding, so would they have intervened? They may not have been a team back then, but surely they gave a shit?

Given how easily resurrected Supes manhandles the entire league, I’d say that the entire DCEU would be kneeling before Zod, and Steppenwolf would have gotten his ass kicked by an army of Kryptonians the second he set forth on Zodworld (formerly Earth).
