Eagles new head coach Chip Kelly believes in taking advantage of scientific knowledge to construct the best football team he can put together.  That’s why the Eagles players are greeted by tables of granola bars, yogurt, fruit, and smoothies that have been prepared specifically for each player. “They’ve got a lot of healthy things where once [...]
