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....

      Umm yeah. When did he get it done at the right time? I seem to remember a 4-6 finish and needing Atlanta to win our way into the playoffs but whatever.

      I mean....no lies detected. See above. We have traded a fortune to draft a guy #1 overall that people have lowered standards for to the point that not playing like Jimmy Clausen and looking like a poor man's Kyle Allen occasionally is worthy of a contract extension making him one of the highest paid QB's in the league. That is cope on steroids.

      summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "
