Keep Utilizing Saquon Barkley

One of the few bright spots for the Giants this season, has been Saquon Barkley.

I know there’s been much speculation on whether or not Giants should’ve taken a quarterback like Sam Darnold, Josh Rosen or Josh Allen.

To me, you can’t pass up an opportunity to take a generational talent like Barkley. I believe they’ll have made the right choice in the long run.

Barkley is a versatile back that can flip the field for an offense very quickly. He’s shown that multiple times this year, like this play right here.

With Odell Beckham voicing his frustration with his role within the offense, the Giants still must continue to turn to Barkley.

Why can’t they just have Beckham play under center, while Barkley is lined up behind him? It worked to perfection this week when Beckham hit Barkley on a 57 yard touchdown pass.

That was a very impressive throw by a WR, who’s got a guy in his face. I’ll save the “that throw was better than any pass Manning has thrown this year” for the fans on social media.

Barkley continues to be a problem for opposing defenses, week in and week out. They must continue to run their offense through him.

Allowing him to be the engine of the offense, opens it up for everybody else in the passing game. Therefore, everyone can be happy with their roles on the offense (Giants boat trip 2.0?).

If the Giants expect to come out with a victory in Week 6, they must continue to utilize Barkley as their main contributor on offense.
