I’m not sure if we’re supposed to care anymore given Barkley’s gone, but I figured I’d open it up for discussion. I didn’t even finish watching it yet myself. Keep in mind this was filmed a few weeks before free agency so he was technically still a Giant. What seems obvious in hindsight, even when they ask him about how the team stayed focused in a losing season, is how fractured the relationship was between him and the team. When that deal wasn’t reached last year, there was no going back. Everything we’ve heard since the season backs that up. I also have to imagine it was a topic in that locker room this season more than we’ll ever know.

All that said, I haven't liked how he's handled his departure from the Giants. He came across as very bitter.
And rightfully so…NYG will have contributed HEAVILY towards him leaving the NFL in 2 years as one of the most overcompensated RB’s of all time.
He is a traitor now? Are you 12 years old?
