SB Champion in his first year on his birthday. I’m sad to see this season end, but so grateful for the outcome.

Just to sum up Barkey's first season in an Eagles uniform:

2504 total rushing yards (regular season and postseason combined) - new NFL record!  :flex:

2283 scrimmage yards (regular season only) - best in the NFL :flex:

2857 scrimmage yards (regular season and postseason combined) - 143 yards from being the first player in the NFL ever to achieve 3000 scrimmage yards in a season :flex:

18 rushing TDs :flex:

Offensive Player of the Year award recipient :flex:

 

I'll go out out on a limb and say it was a pretty good signing!

Saquon is this era's Marshall Faulk.

  • Both drafted 2nd overall (Faulk in '94, Saquon in '18). 
  • Both landed with a different team than the one that drafted them (Faulk was traded, Saquon a free agent signing).
  • Both won Offensive Player of the Year in their first year with their new team.
  • Both won the Super Bowl in their first year with their new team.

Only major difference is faulk was 26 when he went to his new team. Hopefully we get another solid couple of years out of Barkley

He was 27 when he signed with us.  He just turned 28 on Sunday.  So only a year difference.

I know but rbs tend to have a down year after a 2,000 yard season so im considering that then his bounce back year he will be turning 30.

To be fair, in order to NOT have a down year after a 2k yard season would require back to back 2k yard seasons. Even 1,500 yards is a 25% decline. 😂

I know what you’re saying though, it’s a lot of wear and tear. It seems like he stayed healthy throughout the season. Maybe we rely on the pass game a little more out of the gate next season and ramp him up in December.

The Mic’ed Up Super Bowl coverage really showcased how important of a leader he’s been.  Hard to believe we would’ve had the 2023 collapse with a presence like that.

Obviously not just a Barkley stat … Hurts contributed quite a bit too.  But still, this is awesome!  :flex:
