Just days before the Super Bowl showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs, the Philadelphia Eagles might be getting a major boost. Nick Sirianni could welcome back a star player from injury. The Philadelphia Eagles will try to prevent the Kansas City Chiefs from winning the Super Bowl for a third consecutive year.
The difference in the outcome this year just might be Philadelphia’s addition of 2,000-yard rusher Saquon Barkley. Barkley has turned the Eagles’ run game from a concern for the opposition through the last decade to a downright fear. Fear that Barkley can score from anywhere. Fear that Barkley can shift momentum at any time.
Coming out of halftime, the Eagles were down 24-7. On the first play from scrimmage, Saquon had a beautiful 59-yard run that brought the offense to the Buccaneers’ 11-yard line. He came out of the game after that play and let Kenny Gainwell finish the drive.

Barkley emerged from the bye rushing for 176 yards and a touchdown in Week 6 and went on to deliver an MVP-caliber season. He topped the 100-yard mark in nine of his 11 post-bye regular-season games and finished with 2,005 rushing yards.
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni explained all the elements of those long Saquon Barkley touchdown runs that might not be obvious.
After Saquon Barkley's impressive performance and his team's subsequent qualification for the upcoming Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs, Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons made something clear about the Eagles' RB.
Nick Sirianni's Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs will face off in the Super Bowl, with Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes as the headline stars.
Nick Sirianni and Jalen Hurts have now led the Philadelphia Eagles back to the Super Bowl for the second time in three seasons. Despite their winning track record, Sirianni and Hurts are regularly the subjects of criticism, or see their accomplishments downplayed because of the talented roster surrounding them.
