I still think Barkley would be a HoF level RB if he went to any sort of competent org.. we ruined a hell of a highlight reel by making him the only threat and sticking him behind a dog shit line his entire career lol

I really feel sad for guys like him who just have their careers wasted. There are a lot of them in the league. Who knows how many of us could have been flowers with enough water and care?

He was hurt as much as he was healthy. Some of them were dumb luck, like stepping on his opponent's foot and missing several games with a bum ankle.

For sure injuries play into it too. But he has been our entire offense, so hes taking more hits, and most of them are well behind the line lol

Saquon has the talent to be a first ballot Hall of Famer. However while he has struggled by being on the Giants during a down era for them I’m pretty confident he would get injured to some degree no matter what team he played for.

Hell, look at Barkley his rookie year with Eli. He was still awesome. But unfortunately, the Giants have a terrible line and Daniel Jones was who they bet the house on

Atlanta is trying to do the same thing and ruin the career of my boy Bijan.

We over used Saquon in a bad system, their system seems to be “use the other guy” lol
