ATLANTA - In an interview with Betway, former Atlanta Falcons Head Coach Mike Smith gave plenty of praise to former Georgia Bulldog and Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl winning defensive tackle Jalen Carter by calling him the most disruptive player at his position.

Jalen Carter has been crucial on defense for the Eagles. Just how good is he?

“Without a doubt, Jalen Carter is the most disruptive defensive tackle in the league right now. You can’t block him with just one person. When he’s singled, more times than not, it’s going to be a tackle for a loss or a sack.”

“I remember watching him as a Georgia Bulldog and he was the most dominating player on the field even back then. His dominance says a lot because defensive tackles have a tough job as they’re likely the guys that get doubled. Carter can beat these double teams and if you single him, you better run away from him and run quickly, otherwise he will dominate. When he plays with control and keeps his head about him, he is unstoppable.”

DON’T FORGET YOUR FANDUEL BETS!!

According to FanDuel, the Philadelphia Eagles have +600 odds to win the Super Bowl next season.

“Vic Fangio deserves a lot of credit for the Eagles’ success this year. They have superstars on offense in Hurts and Barkley but if I had to say who is the most valuable person in Philadelphia, it might be Fangio for what he has done with that defense this season. They have been unbelievable. Fangio will go down as one of the best defensive coordinators to ever coach in the NFL.”

Carter helped lead the Eagles to a dominant 40-22 Super Bowl win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. He made two QB hits on quarterback Patrick Mahomes and brought consistent pressure while closing running lanes all night long for the elite Eagles defense.

In his second season, Carter made 51 total tackles with 6.5 sacks, three forced fumbles and nine pass deflections.
