STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Barkley could exploit Rams' backup defense if Eagles build early lead.

Ryan Heath mentions Saquon Barkley as a potential contrarian play if the Eagles get ahead in the Rams-Eagles game. The Rams have been the fourth-fastest offense in the NFL while trailing (26 seconds per play), suggesting if the Eagles build a lead, the Rams will be forced to pass. This creates a scenario where Barkley could have success against the Rams defense, which is missing Aaron Donald and Miles Garrett (playing a bunch of backups). Heath frames this as fun contrarian galbrains stuff but is uncertain about acting on it.
