No. 3: Keep Working Saquon Barkley

In Week 2, Saquon Barkley wasn’t able to get much going in the run game, with 11 carries for just 28 yards. Most of that is due to poor run blocking from the offensive line. Barkley was able to make a difference through the air, though

The Giants first-round pick had 14 receptions for 80 yards against the Cowboys. I know, in the box score, that doesn’t look impressive. But if you watched the game, he earned all 80 of those yards.

He constantly made guys miss in the open field, juking and spinning away from defenders. Here’s a video displaying the type of elusiveness he possesses:

The Giants may be down, but this man @saquon still making plays 😱

They’ll need to keep using him in the passing game, making this offense more dangerous going forward. If the offensive line issues can be fixed too, hopefully the run game get going as well. Either way, Barkley needs to be the focal point of this offense.

When you have two weapons like wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and Barkley, you need to find any way possible to get the ball in their hands. Moving Barkley around could also help keep the defense of the Texans honest.

If the Giants can keep Barkley heavily involved in the offense, we could see them get their first victory of the 2018 campaign.
