Crossing Broad
These stats are incredible, like something from a college football encyclopedia:
Saquon Barkley in two games vs the Rams:
52 carries
459 rushing yards
325 yards after contact
4 TDs (all over 60+ yards) pic.twitter.com/8PuaQPirNA— PFF (@PFF) January 19, 2025
For this game, it was 26 carries for 205 yards and two touchdowns, one that went 62 yards and the other for 78. He also caught four passes for 27 yards, one of which was a third down swing pass in the end zone that he took 15 yards for a first down. If you combine the receiving stats and add them into the graphic above, it would be 60 touches for 534 yards and four score in two games, one home and one away.
Incredible stuff. You can’t do it any better than that. Saquon Barkley and Jalen Carter are the reason the Eagles won that game. Sure, they got some big plays from others, like Jalen Hurts running in the first score and Jake “The Rollercoaster” Elliott hitting a couple of field goals in the snow. Zack Baun wrecked shop in the second half and it seemed like everyone on the defensive side made at least one big play, but make no mistake, Barkley and Carter are the best offensive player and best defensive player on this team. As long as they’re playing like this, they can beat anybody. They didn’t just stumble into the NFC title game randomly.
