Saquon Barkley, man. What a superstar. I don't think he should have been out there, but even at 80%, he was the best player on the field on offense. If he's 100% healthy, this is a touchdown.

Barkley at 80% health was best Eagles offensive player; elite vision and run feel elevate entire offense.

Even at approximately 80% health, Barkley was the best offensive player on the field against Dallas; his vision and ability to make defenders miss significantly change what the Eagles offense can produce. He finished with 62 yards on seven carries, and the source notes that a fully healthy Barkley would have scored on at least one run, demonstrating how much better the offense functions with him. His intelligence as a runner—seeing space and knowing how to get there—combined with his physical talent makes him exceptional; he beat the Cowboys' edge despite lacking his usual burst, and his feel for a run is outstanding.
