Saquon Barkley sizzled in the snow as the Philadelphia Eagles survived a late scare to beat the Los Angeles Rams 28-22.
The Philadelphia Eagles will face Jayden Daniels’ Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship Game for a chance to play at Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, but it would not be possible without Barkley’s talent.
Barkley erupted for a 62-yard house call in the opening quarter, but he was just getting started.
The dynamic running back waned more and told his quarterback as much just before a play.
In the fourth quarter, Saquon Barkley carried the Philadelphia Eagles to the NFC Championship Game when he broke off a 78-yard run in the snow for a touchdown.
It gave the team a 28-15 lead.
Footage before that play shows Saquon looking at Jalen Hurts and stating, “Watch this.”
