Saquon Barkley had himself a monster game on Sunday in the NFC Championship against the Commanders. He scored on the Eagles’ first play, and he went on to put away the Commanders with his three-touchdown effort. Even though Barkley made it look easy at times, he was well aware of what his offensive line was dealing with in the lead-up to the game.
