Love the guy so damn much. Only custom jersey I've ever ordered (back when you couldn't find a Bolton jersey).
I thought he was a 1st round talent but I'm always reluctant to say anyone will be a perennial pro bowler. That sure seems to be Bolton's ceiling right now.
If Mizzou fans hate a guy - don't give that much thought. We hate most of our players. But if we love a player, that's probably worth noting because we shit on just about everyone. [Reply]
And if he gets a hand on somebody they're going down. There's no missed tackles coming from him and he's not getting dragged down the field for extra yards either. [Reply]
Our linebackers, secondary and interior d-line all appear pretty stacked. We just need 1 or 2 more edge rushers to go along with Karlaftis and we'll be set to have a top 10 defense. [Reply]

The defense has been spectacular this season.
If the offense can get it figured out then we're going to be just fine.
That's partially why I'm not too worried after Sunday.
We'll get Butker back, I trust Mahomes and Andy to get the offense figured out.
But now I know we have a damn good defense.
This team is fine. And may be better than fine once we get rolling. [Reply]

The past few years a running back like Taylor would've completely gashed us.
The fact that we were able to shut him down for the most part is so encouraging to me.
Our linebackers used to be a disaster and now they're arguably the strength of the defense.
We are not nearly the sieve against the run that we've been in recent seasons. [Reply]
