The electric Philadelphia running back is the biggest bargain in pro sports.

His humbleness and charisma shined through,” said Rachel Panek, who encountered Barkley at Pennsylvania high school track meet a decade ago.

PHILADELPHIA — Saquon Barkley is unsure himself why exactly over the final 30 yards of a 78-yard scoring burst through the playoff snow in a run that whipped Philadelphia Eagles fans out of their frigid state and into a frenzy he cradled the football in his left hand and repeatedly smacked his helmet with his right hand.

Saquon Barkley is certainly more than capable of setting a new rushing yards record in a season in the NFC championship. So far this postseason, he's averaging 162 rushing yards per game.

Barkley’s chance to lead the Eagles into Super Bowl LIX and add to one of the all-time great seasons by a free agent who changed teams arrives at 3 p.m. Sunday when the Commanders visit Lincoln Financial Field in the NFC Championship game.

The Philadelphia Eagles, led by Saquon Barkley and Jalen Hurts, will aim to reach another Super Bowl, but to do so, they’ll have to defeat none other than the surprising Washington Commanders. The Philadelphia Eagles are one of the lucky four teams just one game away from achieving their first goal: reaching the Super Bowl.

Despite the reign of terror that Saquon Barkley has inflicted on opposing defenses this season, we expect the Commanders to hone in on the Eagles’ running back and keep him from eclipsing his inflated rushing total.
