When Jason Kelce talks, we listen. It's been that way for a while. He's earned the right to voice his opinion after being the heart and soul of the Philadelphia Eagles for most of his 13-year career.
That opinion was certainly voiced during a recent visit to one of Philly's sports stations. Like Seth Joyner before him, one of the most beloved Eagles to ever walk stirred the pot this week with a brutally honest assessment of the coming NFC Championship Game.
Jason Kelce shares Seth Joyner's affinity for the Eagles as he states Philly is better than Washington "at every position".
Jason Kelce didn't pull punches during a recent visit to 94 WIP-FM's Morning Show. Asked to weigh in on the coming title game, he credited Washington for its playoff success.
But, he didn't stop there.
Jason made it clear that he believes Philadelphia is better in every phase of the game. A high-stakes battle at Lincoln Financial Field is scheduled for Sunday, one Seth Joyner said "The Commanders haven't got a snowball's chance in hell at winning".
Kelce didn't go that far, but he seems to agree. His confidence mirrored Seth's. It's a confidence that reflects the mindset of a team and a city that expects nothing less than a trip to the Super Bowl.
There's no need for interpretation. Kelce acknowledged Washington’s strong postseason run under coach Dan Quinn but left listeners with a very clear stance.
“I think the Eagles are better at every position."

The Eagles are ready to prove the legend is right right.
The Eagles have every reason to feel confident heading into Sunday. They’ve been one of the most consistent teams in the league, finishing the regular season strong and dismantling their playoff opponents. Kelce’s comments echo the sentiment of a team that knows it’s built to win now.
Philadelphia boasts a deep roster led by quarterback Jalen Hurts, who has guided the Eagles through one of the best offensive campaigns in franchise history. With playmakers like A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and a stout defense headlined by Jalen Carter, the Eagles have the firepower to dominate.
The Washington Commanders present a worthy challenge.
Even with Kelce’s bold claim, the Eagles understand this won’t be an easy matchup. Washington has played with heart and resilience, making few mistakes and finding success in critical moments.
They’ve already defeated the Eagles once this season, and coach Dan Quinn has turned them into a disciplined unit capable of pulling off upsets. However, this is Philadelphia’s time. Playing at Lincoln Financial Field with the best fan base in the NFL behind them, the Eagles have all the tools to punch their ticket to another Super
The Eagles Are Built for This Moment
Jason Kelce’s remarks reflect the confidence of an organization built for championship glory. The Eagles are stacked, hungry, and ready to reclaim their place atop the NFC.
Sunday’s game is more than just another step toward the Super Bowl — it’s a chance to show why Philadelphia is the gold standard of the NFC East. Expect fireworks at Lincoln Financial Field as the Eagles prove they’re the team to beat.
