As it stands, Jason Kelce has achieved amazing stats that most centers in the league cannot. In nearly two years in the field, Kelce hasn’t allowed a single sack. The man is so good at protecting the QB that in nearly 3 years; he hasn’t allowed the defense to hit the QB more than once. What’s notable about this is that Kelce walked into the University of Cincinnati as a 0-star recruit RB.

He sure has done a lot of shadow work in the last couple of years, and he is now considered one of the best centers in the NFL. ‘He made it,’ but he can go even further, without a doubt. The Eagles got him as the 6 draft pick (191 overall), and it was back in 2011. Despite his extensive career, he has started to get more spotlight. Maybe it’s because the Eagles stand 4-0 and it has a lot to do with the ‘Fat Batman’.

It’s something that only the Eagles are good at, so much so that it is almost like a ‘cheat code’ and has helped them win 4 regular season games.
