“When you have the type of quickness (and) lateral movement, that Saquon has, with the ability to accelerate and speed to finish, and the power to break through an arm tackle,” Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said. “He's got everything you look for in a back. He's been awesome and he was awesome tonight.”

When Saquon Barkley glanced up at a SoFi Stadium replay of his latest huge run for the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night, he happened to see a graphic indicating he had 173 yards rushing — only 16 shy of what he knew to be his career high.
