From the episode
Saquon got the vast majority of his yards after contact because he needed to. Right? You took out the one long run that he had in that game. The rest of his day was 14 carries for 41 yards.
STACKED’s take
Negative signalUsage
Barkley's week one yards came after contact; line struggles limited run game.
Saquon Barkley got the vast majority of his yards after contact in week one against Washington because the Eagles offensive line was ineffective. Removing his one long run, he had 14 carries for 41 yards, getting nothing done in the run game. The Eagles allowed a 36.4% pressure rate (12th highest) and the run game was particularly poor, forcing Jalen Hurts to play on hard mode.
