ARLINGTON, Texas -- The New York Giants were right about one thing: This Saquon Barkley looks like one heck of a player. In his first NFL game, last week against the Jaguars, he ripped off a 68-yard touchdown run. And Sunday night in Dallas the rookie running back set a franchise record with 14 receptions in a single game. He looks every bit the do-everything superstar the Giants promised us they were taking with the No. 2 overall pick in April.
And yet ... the Giants are 0-2. Again. And in a way that makes you wonder whether “win now” really was the right approach for them to take this offseason.
