Jason Smith: "Saquon Barkley is already at 1,500 yards. If he breaks Eric Dickerson's all-time rushing record, guess what? He's the MVP. He is on pace to do that. He needs 600 yards in the next 4 games. That's completely doable for Saquon Barkley. The Eagles will be fighting for homefield. You don't want to go to Detroit to play an NFC Championship Game, you want Detroit to come play at your field. Josh Allen has been great, but the case for Barkley for MVP is so great because he came in and transformed this team."
Jason Smith and Mike Harmon discuss the NFL MVP race after Josh Allen puts on a show Sunday night against the 49ers. Jason explains why Saquon Barkley still has a strong shot at winning the NFL MVP despite Allen's numbers amidst the Bills success. However, Jason breaks down why Barkley's push for the MVP could actually prove to be detrimental to the Eagles' Super Bowl aspirations.
