Saquon Barkley shines once more, leading the Eagles to a record-setting playoff win over the Rams
Philadelphia: Saquon Barkley is on fire! He just keeps breaking records and leading the Eagles to victory. Seriously, where would this team be without him? Probably not in the NFC Championship Game, that’s for sure.
Barkley’s been making plays like it’s second nature. He said he just focuses and lets the offensive line do their thing. And boy, did they do it! He had two massive touchdown runs, one for 62 yards and another for 78 yards, helping the Eagles beat the Rams 28-22.
He set a new franchise record for rushing yards in a playoff game, surpassing a record that stood for 76 years. Can you believe that? His 205 rushing yards are now the fifth-most in postseason history. Talk about a performance!
And it’s not just this game. Barkley has been racking up yards like crazy this postseason. He’s got 324 rushing yards already, and he’s not done yet. This guy is making history with every game he plays.
His stats this season are mind-blowing. In 18 games, he’s got over 2,300 yards and 17 touchdowns. No one has ever done that in a single season before. It’s wild!
Even his teammates are in awe. Jordan Mailata said if Barkley gets through the line untouched, it’s a guaranteed touchdown. That’s some serious confidence in your teammate!
The Eagles’ rushing game is just unstoppable. They had 285 rushing yards in this game alone, which is impressive. And they’re heading into the next game against the Commanders with a lot of momentum.
Barkley is definitely not slowing down. He’s been a beast against Washington this year, and everyone knows it. He’s just one win away from the Super Bowl, and he’s ready to keep pushing.
He’s all about teamwork, too. Barkley always gives credit to his offensive line and teammates. He knows it takes everyone to win, and that’s what makes him such a great player.
So, keep an eye on Barkley and the Eagles. They’re on a roll, and it’s going to be exciting to see how far they can go!
