Saquon Barkley joins LeSean McCoy and Brian Westbrook on all-time list following another stellar performance

What is there to say about Saquon Barkley that hasn’t already been said? The guy is otherworldly, and we saw it on full display against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Saquon made highlight reel play after highlight reel play Sunday afternoon, culminating in 199 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns. With those 199 yards, he went over 1,000 yards from scrimmage on the year, becoming just the third Eagles RB to do so in eight games since 1970. The other two — LeSean McCoy and Brian Westbrook.

Saquon Barkley keeps making Eagles history

Saquon Barkley has over 1,000 scrimmage yards for the season❗️

He's just the third Eagle since the 1970 NFL merger to reach that milestone in the first eight games of a season, joining LeSean McCoy (2011, '13) and Brian Westbrook (2007).

It was only fitting for Saquon to join this all-time list on the same day McCoy got inducted into the Eagles Hall of Fame.

McCoy and Westbrook are the two best RB’s I’ve ever seen in an Eagles uniform. After seeing what Saquon Barkley did yesterday — and has done in almost every game this season — he could go down as one of the best Eagles backs of all time as well.

Philly hasn’t had a back this talented since Shady left 10 years ago. Saquon is special and I wake up everyday thankful that the Giants let him walk this offseason.
