The Philadelphia Eagles’ decision to sign Saquon Barkley might get them a Super Bowl ring.
It was one of the most impactful signings in NFL free-agency history.
It was easy to predict something like this happening, and only health would’ve been able to slow him down.
That’s why NFL analyst Mike Francesa has had it with New York Giants fans complaining about him.
In the latest edition of his podcast, he stated that Barkley wouldn’t have even come close to these numbers if he had stayed in the Big Apple.

Barkley joined the team with the best offensive line in the game.
It’s not easy to find running lanes when the offensive line is collapsing after almost every dropback.
It’s also hard to stay healthy when you’re getting tackled left and right by three players every single time you get the ball.
Barkley is finally showing what he could’ve done on a good team.
More than that, he may have made GM Joe Schoen look terribly bad.
Schoen constantly low-balled him and chose to pay Daniel Jones over him.
Fast forward to today, and Jones isn’t even on the team.
Barkley, on the other hand, is packing his bags to get ready to play in the Super Bowl.
The Giants have plenty of things to fix in the offseason.
More than that, the fans have no reason to resent Barkley over his decision to go to Philadelphia after the way the team treated him despite his desire to stay.
