Eric Dickerson talks about Eagles running back Saquon Barkley, who needs to average 134 yards in his last two games to surpass the former Rams superstar's record.

The NFL single-season rushing record has stood for 40 years, far longer than Saquon Barkley has been on this planet. But now, with two games to play, the Philadelphia Eagles running back is 268 yards from eclipsing the mark of Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson, who set the league record of 2,105 with the Rams in 1984.

So it’s location, location, location? Yes. Even myself. If you’d have put me in Cincinnati on a bad team, I’d have never been that guy. Because these bad football teams with no blocking, I don’t care how great you are. If you don’t have the guys in front of you, you can’t do it.
