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....

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
