Jesus with the anti-Center diatribe already. Eagles won a SB without their QB and LT. IMO they don't win that SB without Kelce. He was fantastic that year and in the playoffs. His ability to pull and to get ot the second level to seal guys off was like right out of a clinic (even though he gets downfield too early on short passes sometimes). He was absolutely Huge for the Eagles SB run. That doesn't mean Center is more valuable than QB or LT but it does show it is important. The backup Center for Dallas played better than anyone could have hoped for this year but even still they could not move the middle of the DL and that was huge in short yardage all year long and really the whole Rams game. The OL proves the old saying that "a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link" better than probably any other position in sports. If your center allows push up the middle every play it just doesn't matter how good the rest of your line is.
