Eagles fans, get used to Saquon Barkley giving Birds defense fits | Jeff McLane

Fletcher Cox had him dead in his sights. Saquon Barkley had already run through a one-arm tackle attempt by Michael Bennett. But as the New York Giants running back hit the hole, Cox was ready to pounce. But Barkley stuttered-stepped and cut to his left, and the Eagles' All-Pro defensive tackle was left in his trail.

Barkley was far from finished. Kamu Grugier-Hill was up next. The linebacker lunged and wound up hugging air as Barkley galloped away and onto the next hurdle. Barkley glided to the ground and somehow maintained his balance before Malcolm Jenkins charged. But he pogoed over the safety and again stuck the landing.
