Barkley is still a Snake

Good for him but who gives af

I want him and the eagles to lose every week

I give a f.  He's a high character person and leader who played on a bad team that could not use his skills.  His injuries are not his fault as he played through many of them as well.  Wish the kid well.

If I lived in Philly, this would be big news. Since I live in NY I really couldn't care less.

As someone else who gives an f, I'll share that I was curious about Barkley's speed this season- would it be anywhere close to where he's been in the past after injury, etc.  It looks like he's now fully recovered, which is great to see:

https://theeagleswire.usatoday.com/lists/saquon-barkley-touchdown-run-eagles-saints-reaction-social-media/

Reached 21.66 mph (!!)- fastest run by any player this year and 2nd-fastest overall so far.  And- his fastest speed in nearly 5 years.

Pretty much seals it.  If he can stay healthy he is going to set records this year.  Currently has 356 yards rushing, and 10-53 receiving, 5.6 ypc and 5 TDs.  That's on track for 2000+ rushing yds and 2300+ total yds and 28 TDs. 

The problem is he plays RB and has an injury history.  So I'd say it's highly unlikely he gets through an entire season unscathed.  But if he does, we may finally get to see what the dude was capable of.

Hes not a Giant anymore , let it go...  He was high character until he became a snake... he's also not as smart as we all think he is ... putting all your money into Bitcoin is stupid AF and that's probably why he wouldn't take a 1 million a year discount to stay on his hometown team, be in the ring of honor even at one point he did in FACT state he would consider a hometown discount


Hes a scumbag whos not on the team anymore... screw him and his Eagles jersey

Hes the enemy now point blank

You think you're going a little overboard there with calling him a scumbag?

Also how do you know BTC is stupid. He has to take a million dollar discount now? And his hometown state is PA. He carried this team ; was the focal point on offense; sometimes even as a receiver. Got showed no respect as such when they (over)paid Jones 160 mil for 4 years. Played on a tag. Why isn't Jones held to that standard. Is there anyone who really feels good about the Jones contract right now? And don't give me this crap about cut him in the off-season -- it'll be significant cap hit any which way you cut it. Not to mention I don't think he's going anywhere.
