By then, Barkley and the Eagles had long silenced the Giants crowd, who booed him every time he touched the ball until they were worn down, much like the Giants' vaunted defensive line. Barkley showed that in the first quarter, when he caught a short pass along the sideline and literally ran over Dane Belton.

Saquon Barkley was in a great mood late Sunday afternoon and for good reason. In his return to MetLife Stadium, he rushed for 176 yards on 17 carries and scored a touchdown during the Eagles’ 28-3 rout of the Giants.

A combination of lightning-strike-like rushing back Saquon Barkley and a suffocating Eagles defense never let New York establish offensive momentum resulting in a 28-3 win for the visiting team from Philly.
