The Eagles and Commanders being on this spot is hard sufficient for the Giants, however how they bought right here solely provides extra salt to the injuries.

Led by Saquon Barkley, the Giants’ former captain and offensive cornerstone, Philly is a dominant all-around unit able to creating holes giant sufficient to drive a semi truck by means of. At any given second, Barkley can break off a game-changing run and bury the dagger even deeper into the center of John Mara.

Mara stated throughout an episode of Laborious Knocks that it could be a “nightmare” to see Barkley in an Eagles uniform. Even he couldn’t have imagined how horrifying that nightmare would truly turn into.

Per week from now, we might be speaking about Barkley, an MVP candidate, main Philly to the Tremendous Bowl — probably the most becoming doable ending for the worst season in Giants historical past.
