Kamara tooI have Mostert foaming at the mouth for the start. Regardless of if it’s the ankle, the play calling, or whatever.....how far has he dropped?
leveon bell is pretty much in the same boat. He did not suddenly suck.
314-555-9185 please call statCant wait to unload this heaping pile of crap in the off season to someone who is enamored with the name. And, hasnt actually paid attention to how awful he was as all year.
of course there isThere's no explanation for this kind of decline.
It is a lot like Rodgers, where you obviously own Adams and can’t distinguish between actual football and magic footballIs this the you disagree with me, so I didnt watch the game line. Zinger.
If you tell me to watch the game, I'll tell you read my post. I dont care how bad the offense is, studs make things happen. Barkley is no stud.
This reminds me of the Aaron Rodgers thread where people will just continue to defend a player regardless of what facts say.
Barkleys stats disagree and say you are very wrong. Facts and stats or opinions? I'll go facts and stats.You're very wrong.
I agree with you here. Its just the league figured him out. He doesnt have as much power as he looks like. Make a joke about the quads, but he has no power when he runs. His stiff arm was his strength, he still pulls a few off, but people hit him low and take him down and avoid it. Thats the strategy, go low. He doesnt run with the authority of a Zeke or the agility of a McCaffery. Those 2 didnt have any decline, both have been banged up. Some can blame his ankle if it makes you feel better, but he doesnt and I trust him about his health more than anyone trying to justify his bad play on the internet. He would be the first to blame his ankle as an excuse. But it just isnt. We are 12 weeks past his ankle injury.of course there is
Zeke and Cmac still get theirs. Why doesnt he get his? Carolina isnt the greatest line, sure Dallas is stout, but Zeke still runs people over. Barkley looks like he gets pushed back. I know its not sexy, but you can see it. He isnt good.If there was ever a stop one guy to win this would be it. I don’t see him get any room and any extra yards are from running away from the intended line.at the goal line they might as well take him out.
So are you planning to sell at a discount?Cant wait to unload this heaping pile of crap in the off season to someone who is enamored with the name. And, hasnt actually paid attention to how awful he was as all year.
If I have to but I'm sure I won't need to. People still fawning all over him for some strange reason, so I will be able to sucker someone into parting with great players that actually produce.So are you planning to sell at a discount?
That's partly true - but you at least have to respect Cooper/DJ Moore - and the QB's can make a play here and there. Both teams are regressing badly though which I have not really looked at as I only own DJ and he has been a pleasant surprise.Zeke and Cmac still get theirs. Why doesnt he get his?

So what you are saying is, he is over rated and not worth the high pick he was taken at since he doesnt provide that game changing ability to make bad teams better?infantsam said:That's partly true - but you at least have to respect Cooper/DJ Moore - and the QB's can make a play here and there.

The Giants are just a special kind of bad. Outside of a Manning couple of Manning dimes and a terrible open field tackle attempt the offense repeatedly just goes backwards.
For fun - the second half of Monday night

I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Pittsburgh would love to have him that is for sure!
Its not negativity on his value, its his performance. Why are people acting like the negativity isnt earned.Kiddnets said:I really hope this negativity on Barkley continues to next year and he can be had at a discount.....he'll have a new HC who will be focused on getting him on track...better team with 2 high picks and $60M to spend so figure OL will be better....QB in yr 2 with more confidence.....and be healthy....with that workload and upside Im far from off the wagon.
lol -So what you are saying is, he is over rated and not worth the high pick he was taken at since he doesnt provide that game changing ability to make bad teams better?
I agree.
He seems very obviously still hurt to me. He makes like 3 cuts a game now. He used to make 6 cuts every carry.Has anyone who watched him play think he is still playing injured or does he look at full strength?
Saquon Barkley (ankle) believes he is physically back to 100 percent but admits the mental aspect has been difficult.
"Even though physically you feel like you're back, mentally you might be telling yourself that you're back, but you watch yourself on film and see that you're running and you're protecting yourself," Barkley said. "You just don't really think you're doing it but naturally it's just happening." Barkley actually looked more like himself vs. the Eagles on Monday evening but still came away with uninspiring statistical results. The Dolphins will do all they can to spark Barkley to his first 100-yard rushing effort since Week 2.

Saquon Barkley rushed 24 times for 112 yards and two touchdowns in the Giants' Week 15 win over the Dolphins.
Barkley hadn't been effective this season -- today was his first 100-yard game since his Week 3 ankle injury -- but there's nothing a matchup with the Dolphins won't fix. Barkley was making defenders miss with his signature jump cuts, which led to two inside-the-10 rushing touchdowns. As always, Barkley padded his fantasy line with receiving work (4-31-0 on five targets). Expect another big game from Saquon next week with the Redskins on deck.
Still a bum? What's your hot take now?So what you are saying is, he is over rated and not worth the high pick he was taken at since he doesnt provide that game changing ability to make bad teams better?
I agree.
Yes...he blew up on the Dolphins. This is my point, him blowing up for one game after stinking for all season doesnt make him studly again. I even called it and said people will come in here claiming he is back after one game against the Dolphins.Still a bum? What's your hot take now?
Barkley had to do that yesterday though just to keep his head above water. If he fell flat against the Dolphins at home, the issues would have been way worse then if he was just a bust.I wouldnt crow too much about beating up on Miami.
His schedule is favorable though for week 16.
This will be a debate will continue all off season. I dont know what wed do without an Alex Collins-like thread for 9 months
Will probably help me win one league and gives me a decent chance in a toilet bowl (winner gets an extra 1st).22/180 and 1 td rushing plus4/90 and 1 rec TD=43.9 points in PPR.
This guy saved my vegan bacon today. Guessing most of his owners didn't make the Championship but I did because Dalvin Cook and Derrick Henry got me here and now Barkley has given me a good chance to win.
great game from him. seemed studly.Yes...he blew up on the Dolphins. This is my point, him blowing up for one game after stinking for all season doesnt make him studly again. I even called it and said people will come in here claiming he is back after one game against the Dolphins.
Stll dont make him worth the pick or change the fact he was a bust right now.
Would you like to defend your position?I dont care how bad your offense is.
When you are getting one yard. ONE.
Its on you. Bad players on worse teams do better than that. Scott had like 24 or something touches before yesterday, he made Barkley look like an amateur.
Me too. And those are critical weeks. I don't see how his owners can complain. The injury wasn't his fault and yet he came back and gave us big time performances in the playoffs.Would you like to defend your position?
BTW, Barkley netted me 89 fantasy points during weeks 15-16 combined.
He will not be back.Would you like to defend your position?

Well, Barkley did have b2b 100 yard games to start the season like the player he should be with eli and as always with a rookie scrub QB, yes thats what this Jones kid is, he starts his decline. Barkley isnt even blaming his injury, so I wont. Especially after seeing how bad this Jones kid was.
Rookie or not, he should know better for his own survival the best thing for him to do was put it in Saquan hands often, instead he threw at WRs ankles 20 yards down the field. Thats a low IQ QB and nothing anyone will say will convince me that this Jones kid is gonna be good. He just doesnt have it mentally, Eli isnt that much better anymore, but for Barkleys sake. He knows to just dump it to him instead of trying to throw to some dude named slayton.
Shurmur finally started lining Saquon out wide last week more often and today Jones FINALLY started targeting him aggressively. It's puzzling why they stopped putting him out in space like they did last year.Saquon Barkley rushed 22 times for 189 yards and a touchdown and caught four passes for 90 yards and a second touchdown in the Giants' Week 16 win over Washington.
It's a massive game for Barkley, who went over 100 yards halfway through the first quarter. He ran right through the Redskins defense for his 67-yard rushing touchdown, and was left uncovered on a seam route from 33 yards out on his receiving TD. Barkley was picking up chunk plays all game, adding in a 51-yard catch and 32-yard run. After struggling to fully trust himself after his ankle injury, Barkley has stacked back-to-back huge games coming off last week's two touchdowns. Barkley will try to finish the season on a high note in a Week 17 matchup against the Eagles.
Let me get you some cheese...So nice he waited until most teams who took him #1 were eliminated. Screw you suckquan
