Everyone seems to be talking about Saquon Barkley‘s backwards hurdle play. I don’t see the big deal. High jumpers jump that high all the time. m.youtube.com/watch?v=v-LHw4qoh0gI think that DeVonta Smith’s touch down snag was more impressive. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3q60waDrqAWhat do you think which is more impressive? I am not an eagles fan. I’m not even a football fan. But I’ve seen these 2 plays all over social media today. My algorithm must be off, someone somewhere has decided I’m a guy between this and all the macho political shit I’ve gotten for the last week. Maybe it was looking up my DS’s birthday list items ( watches & coffee stuff ) |

They were both impressive, however the backwards leapfrog only led to maybe a 1 yard gain, while the one-handed catch led to a TD.

I'm with you. To make that TD catch was fantastic, but to do so and be aware of where your feet needed to be to make it count---that's really impressive to me.

Wow I love those plays! They are both amazing. However, I still cannot stop watching the Hail Mary from the Commanders last week!!!!

I wouldn’t call Barkley’s leap impressive instead I’d call it what it was, showing off. It wasn’t like it was a 4th down and he needed that extra yard. He’s lucky he didn’t get hurt or hurt someone else coming down.

You have to see the whole run on Barkley, he dodged a couple tackles before the leap. It's just incredible athleticism, the jump was just part of the momentum. And we love the Slim Reaper (devonta smith), he always comes up with some incredible grabs. I don't know which is more impressive, but just glad they squeaked the win out.

I saw the run, that spinning dodge was great. He is definitely fast in his feet. I just think the one handed touchdown grab, including keeping feet inbounds was more to talk about. |

The 61 yard field goal on Sunday was more amazing
