Bryant Turhan Emerson Moreland (born December 15, 1990), better known online as EDP445 (EatDatPussy445), is a former American YouTube vlogger. While he was active, he was best known for being a superfan of the Philadelphia Eagles, an NFL team.

Starting out on YouTube in 2011, Moreland primarily grew popular through vlogs that showed off his extremely crass sense of humor and unfiltered personality, which produced a dedicated fanbase for him over the years as well as a Fountain of Memes for the Internet that made him particularly popular in the late 2010s. Frequent video topics included his daily life, sex-related matters such as porn and masturbation, food, and his famous rants about sports, most notably the NFL playoffs. His sports rants got the attention of ESPN and Fox Sports, and led to him appearing on multiple episodes of Tosh.0.

Starting in summer and fall 2020, Moreland received allegations of having had inappropriate online conversations with underage girls, which he repeatedly denied. In April 2021, the online group Predator Poachers enacted a sting operation on Moreland, setting up a decoy that interacted with him over several months while claiming to be a 13-year-old girl. According to the extensive chat logs and video calls they released, Moreland engaged in and initiated extremely inappropriate behavior, up to and including sending explicit pictures and agreeing to meet her in person with sexual intent. Members of the Predator Poachers were present at the spot given for him to go to, and over the course of around 50 minutes, he made several serious admissions, including the texts and calls with the decoy being real and that he had engaged in similar conversations with numerous other minors.

As a result, Moreland's reputation on the Internet took an intense nosedive. He announced plans to delete his main channel before the Poachers video went live, and deleted his videos shortly after. On April 27, 2021, his channel was terminated by YouTube as a result of the fallout from the controversy, as was the channel hosting the Poachers video after revelations of illicit activity by its owner Alex Rosen — some of it on a very similar level as Moreland.

Moreland relocated to his Facebook account following the termination, making no statements on his legal matters and instead reverting back to his old persona and promoting a new website where future content would be hosted. The account was terminated shortly after, and the website never went live. His whereabouts for the rest of the year were unknown, as his online presence wasn't reported at all, which resulted in many rumors of his fate being created including claims that he was arrested or had committed suicide.

After nearly a year of absence from the Internet, Moreland attempted to make a return on an obscure livestreaming app called BIGO as well as creating a new Instagram account in early 2022. While no action has been sanctioned against him, he's repeatedly been attacked by people bringing up his accusations despite him claiming that they are fake, resulting in widespread mockery of him. He also started uploading to TikTok regularly, and reached 1 million followers after a year despite being mocked by his followers. The end of the year proved to be a new low for him, as on top of being slapped with a new set of allegations, he stated that he had been recently diagnosed with stage 5 kidney failure.

Moreland's current activity has been much less frequent, as his TikTok was taken down in January 2023 and he started selling his Eagles memorabilia as well as his YouTube Play Buttons to make money. In March 2023, he got surgery for his kidney condition and responded to the allegations by claiming that he was framed and tricked into acting as a pedophile for a short film instead of a real-life sting. His claims were widely refuted and mocked on the internet, with a lot of people noting that his proof of innocence was largely fabricated and false.

A few months later, Moreland made an official apology, stating that he was taking accountability for his actions and getting help for his problems. However, it was met with a polarized response online, with some people stating that he was doing it to save face and win back his fans after being shunned from the Internet for over 2 years. The fact that he vehemently denied and ignored the allegations but still had the self-awareness to reference them in videos caused even more controversy, with many people claiming that he had zero remorse for his actions and might act out again.

To that end, just a few months later, Moreland was caught again in another sting operation that included the involvement of popular YouTuber JiDion, with texts of him talking to and sending inappropriate messages to a 16-year-old girl surfacing. While the sting went nowhere due to mismanagement by JiDion, he did recede from the public eye again, with his new TikTok account getting taken down shortly after. He routinely uploaded to his website until February 2024, when he deleted it due to a lack of views and funding. At the moment, he's currently active on Instagram, yet lives a life that's a far cry from his glory days on YouTube. With his health on the decline, the threat of his arrest floating around, and his reputation shattered for good and unlikely to ever be rehabilitated, the rest of his online journey remains to be seen, but it's not shaping up to have a happy ending.


YOU PINK-ASS WINNIE THE POOH LOOKING FUCKING TROPES!!!

  • Arch-Enemy: Being a fan of the Philadelphia Eagles, he absolutely despises the Dallas Cowboys, former Eagles coach Chip Kelly, and especially the New England Patriots and Tom Brady. Besides football, he also despises the Los Angeles Lakers and John Cena.
  • Berserk Button: Many, including bandwagon sports fans, the Eagles losing, or anyone giving him merchandise of anything he despises with a passion, such as the New England Patriots.
  • Big Eater: He'll eat virtually anything that's related to fast food. This didn't end up too well initially, as he was frequently mocked by trolls for being a big fatass on the comment section, much to his dismay.
  • Cloud Cuckoo Lander: He's been known to go on some very strange rants.
  • Cluster F-Bomb: Every single one of his sports rants results in him spewing out F-bombs non-stop, most famously on his rants on Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.
  • Early-Installment Weirdness: His very early video didn't talk about sports whatsoever and was more of a generic comedy vlog.
  • Earn Your Happy Ending: Watching the Eagles finally win the Super Bowl. In-person. Against the hated Tom Brady and the Patriots.
  • Fan Disservice: Any time he's shirtless or him showing his ass onscreen, especially when he's using whatever sports-related clothing to wipe his ass with.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: Dear GOD.
  • No Indoor Voice: He's an incredibly loud individual most of the time. This is more evident when he's angry or on an angry rant about the Eagles losing.
"AND I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHO HEARS ME OUTSIDE!!!"
  • Potty Emergency: In "I NEARLY SHITTED ON MYSELF", he said that he held his crap for several hours as he refuse to use the school bathroom. Once he came home, he took a massive hours-long shit in peace.
  • Running Gag:
    • Clogging up toilets from public areas that he ended up using, such as Chipotle, Burger King, and a BP station.
    • Wiping his ass with shirts or hats that feature anything he despises, such as the Dallas Cowboys and the New England Patriots.
  • Sir Swears-a-Lot: He's so foul-mouthed that most of his videos ended up being age-restricted for this very reason.
  • This Is for Emphasis, Bitch!: He said "GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE, BITCH!" to then-Eagles coach Chip Kelly once the team fired him from the team.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: He loves pastrami in his chili-cheese fries and sub sandwiches.
  • Younger Than They Look: It's not uncommon for viewers to mistake EDP for being in his 40's when he's actually in his 20's (prior to December 15, 2020), most likely due to his male pattern baldness.
