Saquon Barkley will sit out of week 18. Eric dikkerson's record is safe.

[zayk35]

Hope they when the super bowl at least, because if they don't he's gonna regret not going for it. If he gets a ring I guess it was worth it. That record would be damn near Untouchable it's already stood for 40 yrs.

 

[FaTaL]

well of course, just imagine if he gets hurt or something for no reason and ruins phillys super bowl dreams

 

[Rekkapryde]

They put an asterisk next to dikkerson's too cause OJs was in 14

Yup

Juice had the best 2K season.

 

[Rekkapryde]

the OPOY is saquons
there is no debate

going to Lamar since Allen getting MVP

Sports weird now fr

nikka got the chance to be in the record books he like nah I’m good

So what happens if they get bounced first round?

 

[HabitualChiller]

Best part about this record being tested is folks getting a reminder how outrageous OJ's season was

He started slow also, iirc.

 

[Joe Sixpack]

Wow there is no way Saquon should be happy with this

How can you be this close to history and not go for it?

I've noticed it for a couple years now, but it's like they don't care. Like players use to strive to breaking records, I still remembered how emotional LT was when he broke the single season rushing TD record.

 

[3rdLetter]

Nothing to gain from him playing.
People who aren't Giants fans maybe don't know about his injury history.

Facts. Knowing Saquon, it would be the game he ended up with a high ankle sprain.

It might not be untouchable because now players have 17 games to get it, and soon to be 18.

Just 4 years ago Derrick Henry had 2027 in 16 games. Saquon has 2005.

Maybe it's ring culture?

 

[Mike18jj]

Maybe it's ring culture?

hmmmm maybe but really the only position that gets criticized for no rings is QB. Like some of the greatest of all-time have no rings, I don't rate Barry Sanders or Randy Moss any different for not winning a ring.

FOOTBALL IS TOO DANGEROUS
AND 100+ YARDS ISNT EASY WORK.

IF HE NEEDED 30 YARDS HE WOULD PLAY
BUT GETTING THAT HUNDO AGAINST
A TEAM WITH NOTHING TO LOSE
ISNT GOING TO HAPPEN AS THEY
STACK THE BOX ALL GAME AND GIVE
THE PASSING GAME WHATEVER THEY WANT

They had nothing to play for. Also, Eric dikkerson's record was over 16 games so people would have tried to put an asterisk anyway.

Barkley, on cusp of record, to sit out vs. Giants

The Eagles plan to rest key players, including Saquon Barkley, against the Giants, coach Nick Sirianni said Wednesday.

Naaa to do it in this pass heavy era imo would’ve been impressive
