That 78-yard touchdown in the snow was special to Eagles fans but it was also special to Saquon Barkley.
Saquon Barkley’s 78-yard touchdown through the snow is one of those plays Eagles fans will never forget.The Eagles’ All-Pro running back on Wednesday said his touchdown in the fourth quarter of the divisional round win over the Rams was his favorite touchdown ever.
Eventually, the Eagles held on to beat the Rams 28-22 with a defensive stop late in the game. And that means that Barkley’s touchdown will be remembered for the special play it was and not a preface to an epic collapse. Barkley was already showing emotion as he sprinted down the field for that touchdown. He began to emphatically hit himself in his helmet in celebration.“I don’t know,” Barkley said with a grin. “Now that I go back and look at it, I don’t know why I was doing that. Just crashing out, as the kids would say.”
In the playoffs, Barkley has already had 51 carries for 324 yards. As he gets ready for the NFC Championship Game, Barkley is just 148 yards away from breaking the NFL’s all-time rushing mark in the regular season + postseason set by Terrell Davis back in 1998 on the way to a Broncos Super Bowl win.
