00:00And let's start off with the game last night, Vinny.

00:05Fair to say that if you are playing fantasy football and you're still in it at this point

00:09and you care, which hopefully you do, if you played and had Saquon Barkley, you won.

00:14And if you didn't and played against him, you probably lost.

00:17I think that's fair.

00:18Yeah.

00:19I mean, he's had a massive season.

00:21We thought it could be a good fit here with the Eagles running game was already pretty

00:24dominant with the players that they had.

00:27And now you see Saquon Barkley, he's just doing everything for them.

00:31And it's really helped a little bit along the way.

00:34They've had wide receiver injuries.

00:36Last night, Devonta Smith was out for the second time this season.

00:39A.J. Brown has missed time.

00:41Dallas Goddard has missed time.

00:42So they've had to make Saquon the focal point of this offense, whether he's running or catching

00:47the ball.

00:48And we know he loves prime time.

00:49We know he's running with a little chip on his shoulder from what happened with the Giants.

00:53And you're seeing that revival of the season as he stays healthy.

00:57It continues.

00:58So we thought Derek Henry might be the best free agent signing coming over to the Ravens.

01:03But Barkley and Henry were pretty even going into this week.

01:07So it's Henry's turn to answer because Barkley just blew him out of the water to take a big

01:12edge here on that front with the running game.
