Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley opened up the NFC championship game on Sunday afternoon with a monster, 60-yard touchdown run.

The NFL game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders is getting closer and closer and Jalen Hurts' status is trending after Joe Whitt Jr.'s comments, Nick Sirianni and Jordan Mailata responded in a forceful manner.

Can Saquon Barkley put the finishing touches on what is arguably the greatest season ever by a running back with a Super Bowl victory?

Saquon Barkley continues his stellar debut season for the Eagles with three rushing scores to propel Philadelphia past Washington and into the Super Bowl.
