Barkly could have scored on this run too..

EricJ : 12/11/2018 12:14 pm
and I heard him say so after the game. He said he wished he could have found a way to score.

At the 4-5 second mark of this video, he starts to cut back to the middle. At that moment, #20 turns his hips and his head. Right there, if Barkley cuts back again to the outside... he runs into the end zone. No way #20 would be able to recover in time.

It really is a lot of fun watching him run.
52 yard run vs Redskins - ( New Window )
Yeah he needed to take a hard plant in and keep it

on the edge instead of crossing the field. He would have been able to fend off the safety and no one else would have caught him.
Pfffftttttt.

If Barkley had a little more Derrick Henry in him, he would have stiff-armed #20 into the turf.
Yup

slight miscalculation.
Next time someone turns their back like that

Barkley is going the other way. And the defender will fall on his ass trying to turn around again.

Even Saquon will benefit from a year in the Giants offseason program.

Look out
Best part of that run was the block Shepard had on Josh Norman

wow these cats are trippin!!!!
Gentlemen (AND LADIES)...funny that Barkley is so amazing

that we are arguing or commenting on whether he should have scored on a 52 yard run. I will say this...if he stays healthy and humble, we are looking at a Hall of Famer! I knew it when I watched LT and he is the only comparison I can make.

Further, as LT changed the mindset of those Giants, so too is Barkley changing the mindset of this team. I don't think it is any coincidence that the OL is playing better because the mindset of the coaching staff changed during the bye week and the decision was made to run the ball and we have seen the results.

I keep hearing Tuna in my head saying "Let's not put him in Canton yet" but my goodness what a treat he is to watch. Now, let's build around him...make the OL an absolute beast. Keep Eli for two more years...no question he can continue to play as long as we follow this formula and maybe every now and then he can win one with his arm for us.

But Barkley is simply the best damn football player I have seen since 1981. Like Taylor on D, he can do everything you want on offense. I'm getting goosebumps just talking about what is to come.

This was mentioned in another thread  
NDMedics : 12/11/2018 4:49 pm : link
but Barkley switching the ball to the other hand when he decides to cross the field is proof positive that he has been well coached all his life.
Its nuts to slow down a play and then point out what a player should  
PatersonPlank : 12/11/2018 7:18 pm : link
have done. They are dealing with it real time, it 2-3 seconds of decision time. I bet on every play you can find something, but thats not the point. The point is how much they get on what they actually did
He wanted to run over Josh Norman  
Vanzetti : 12/11/2018 7:36 pm : link
.
That was his best run of the day ....  
short lease : 12/11/2018 10:12 pm : link
