I love hockey. I have season tickets to our WHL club and have great seats right behind the goalie. You can always tell how good a goalie is going to be early in the season by how good their feet are. They can have quick hands, or track the puck well, but if their body is constantly out of position none of that matters. Same is true for offensive linemen. If they have to lean to one side or the other because their feet are slow, or use their reach because they don't move fast enough, a d lineman will rip right past them. 

Feet are so important, and without them you have no balance as like you said, they are always leaning. These DE's today are fast, and if you can't move your feet you will get beat.

I said the same thing recently in another thread. Having good feet, balance, and technique are more important for a Tackle. I even used Slater and Joe Thomas as examples

Exactly. Scott Fitterer's  explanation regarding Brady Christensen and his arm length, backs up what all of us here on the Huddle have been  saying for a long time.

Hard to put much on his shoulders when he doesn't have final say.

A lot of us were hoping that if Rhule stayed Tepper would at least change the power structure.

No such luck.

He signed on to be Rhule's yes man. I have no idea why people want that kind of GM to be turned lose like Rhule was. It's really desperate when we could do a lot better.

We went from interviewing Berry to the guy who is qualified to get him coffee and we are supposed to be happy with that? The only guy we interviewed with Rhule that was promising turned down the job and went back to the 49ers. He is a Rhule quality GM, that should be enough to not want him around. He constantly did a poor job but it's all on Rhule. I call BS

That's all well and good, Scott. But let's get to the burning question everyone's dying to ask... why the fug your face look like a thumb???

The burning question is - why are you still here posting when you promised you were done as a Panthers fan until Rhule was fires

I don't like how he calls draft picks "gold" but dumped 3 of them for Sam Darnold. 

How did Fitt, Rhule, Brady, Nixon, Morgan, all go along with trading that haul for Sam "worst QB 3 years running" Darnold??? I think if you spoke out against it, you may have been fired it seems. Terrible, how can you watch three years worth of tape and come to this....

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
