Saquon Barkley has become the Shohei Ohtani of the NFL. There’s no better home run hitter playing football right now.

There’s no denying we’re all being treated to appointment football now that he’s been granted deserved prime-time stages – starting with his Eagles debut in South America (of all places) in Week 1 to his pair of marquee performances over the past 12 days – worthy of transcendent abilities that were compared to the (nearly) incomparable Barry Sanders’ when Barkley came out of Penn State in 2018.
