From the episode

Barkley, I think his first carry in the second half was a seven-yarder. And then it was like one yard, one yard, zero yards. Like he was completely shut out.
Mentioned at 17:34 – 18:24

STACKED’s take

Negative signalUsage

Barkley was shut down in the second half after a dominant first half.

After a dominant first half where the Eagles' run game averaged 0.51 EPA per carry, Saquon Barkley was effectively shut down in the second half. The Eagles moved away from the run, and Barkley struggled to gain yardage against the Bears' adjusted defensive fronts.
