Saquon Barkley sprinted 60 yards for a touchdown on his first carry of the NFC championship game and the Eagles running back never looked back
But Saquon Barkley knew exactly what to do ... Yes, they have Hurts and two dynamic receivers in A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, and the NFL's top-ranked defense, too. But Barkley is what they ...
Brown had a key block on Jalen Hurts’ 44-yard touchdown run in the first quarter and another on Saquon Barkley’s 78-yarder in the snow late in the game. With a back like Barkley, the Eagles’ receivers know their effort on the perimeter could be the difference between a nice run and a home run.
Saquon Barkley rushes for 118 yards and three touchdowns as the Eagles beat the Washington Commanders and will face the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl.
The electric Philadelphia running back is the biggest bargain in pro sports.
Saquon Barkley is unsure himself why exactly over the final 30 yards of a 78-yard scoring burst through the playoff snow in a run that whipped Philadelphia Eagles fans out of their frigid state and into a frenzy he cradled the football in his left hand and repeatedly smacked his helmet with his right hand.
Saquon Barkley dashed 60 yards for a touchdown on Philadelphia’s first play and finished with 118 yards and three scores, Jalen Hurts rushed for three TDs and the Eagles soared into the Super Bowl with a 55-23 win over the Washington Commanders on Sunday.
Barkley had a good chance at an iconic NFL record in the Eagles' season finale. He was exactly 100 yards behind Eric Dickerson's record of 2,105 yards, set in 1984. Barkley admitted he wanted a shot at it, but he went along with head coach Nick Sirianni's decision to rest all starters in Week 18.
In another great sideline moment from the season, C.J. Gardner Johnson was mic’d up when he sang his own version of the song to DeJean on the sidelines. “Cooper DeJean is cornerback one; he locked down your number one option, yeah,” he sang to DeJean, who just smiled sheepishly.
Eagles WR A.J. Brown looks enormous. Next to LeBron James, he's amusingly short. At least the Los Angeles Lakers legend recognized him, unlike some others.
Great clip right here. Everything with Jordan Mailata on the mic is: Jordan laughing during @saquon‘s 60-yd TD run is DIABOLICAL 💀 pic.twitter.com/TFNEi5GiO3 — Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) January 27,
