"It's absurd that the all-time record for most rushing yards in a season could be set with an additional game. There should be separate records for each length of season. If you break Eric Dickerson's record in 16 games, you hold the 16-game season record. If Saquon Barkley sets a new record in 17 games, he would be the 17-game season record holder. This approach maintains the integrity of the records while still allowing players to potentially break existing records.

Nick was the one asking saquon, if he wanted to play more or let the back up play. Eagles going for that rushing rec.

[@kiyanwest149]

im feeling the same way with lamar .. I dont want him to get hurt trying to go for this record and its a record thats never been done ever .. he needs 45 passing yards and 150 rushing that is putting him at too much of a risk of getting hurt for a record

[@LinkCtProds]

OJ Simpson ran for 2,003 in a 12 Game Season in 1973. Five games have been added to the season since then. Regardless, it is hard to run for 2,000 in a season. So if Saquon does it, there will not be an asterisk next to his accomplishment.

[@thespy7795]

14 game Season. I was at the game.

[@dster5570]

Saquon would get the record in more games but with less carries than Dickerson.

[@357twilson]

27 year old Keyshawn and 27 year old Michael Irvin would of been screaming at the top of their lungs to play if they both had a chance at the single season receiving record.

[@one.punchsmash1754]

Man I hope we go get this record. As an Eagle fan I’ve never seen this kind of running and o line blocking. Coach Stout needs his respect. I want people to look back some day and understand this coach was the master mind behind coaching and building the line we’ve always had. And to add the Modern Day Barry Sanders behind what it is currently the best offensive line in the NFL is insane. I say go for the record. It’s only 101 yards we can get that easily.

[@neilwatson9709]

Coach Stout was Terrell Davis' O Line coach in Denver when he did it, this needs to happen. Period

[@evileyevalaus]

Dan has the right idea if you want him to go for the record give him the first half and if he don't break it by halftime he dont break it

[@nickrajkowski2733]

Everyone always brings up the amount of weeks, it's the amount of carries that should matter. The NFL is different now then it was 40 years ago!

[@EDWARDTHEEAUTHOR]

Mfs always want to preserve records but ED didn’t think about that when breaking OJ record

[@Buddha-of8fk]

He is a Penn State graduate. Giving up is something we do not do.

[@HP6400F1]

Key who's goes into the game thinking negative. Stop with the what it's. Barkley should try for it & hopefully he can get it in the 1st 1/2 than rest him the rest of the game. Hurts should also play the 1st 1/2 to get back in the flow & rest him the rest of the game.

[@EDWARDTHEEAUTHOR]

SB should go for it and if the first half looks bad then sit for 2nd half.

[@joesamm1190]

Michael is 100% spot on

[@_joezyy]

Why is Keyshawn the one spitting sense. Getting that record is not worth the risk.

[@ezekielmajor5511]

Agreed 100 man. The Giants players will be doing everything they can to hurt Barkley. Not worth the risk at all. I wouldn't play any starters this week. The playoff run and main goal is way more important. As a player in this situation, even Barkley should know this.

[@Fod-Floco]

Michael Irvin said what all of us here in Philly feel...the O line gonna hold him down out there. He Good!!!...

[@Granpa1313]

Please Keyshawn who are you to say who should do what. If you had the chance to break Randy Moss’s record of 23 Touch Down’s you would’ve. Gotta love these Monday morning QB’s. They know what’s best for the game.

[@jayhampton23]

Playmaker got a point 💯✅💥

[@xoltarr424]

I agree with Paul on the "play or don't play at all." Statistically, setting the record will not necessarily increase your draft stock. Sure, it will get your name on the next EA 26 All-time records when you view it in-game. But, that's it. As an NFL coach looking on, do you want a player who is about himself and not the team? Did the receiver who got the yardage giving Ward the record sit the 2nd half too? Probaby not! The receiver played the rest of the game as part of the team. And playing sports i can tell you, Ward probably got a lot of looks on the sideline after he sat the 2nd half. And they weren't congratulatory.

[@LeetraviusMcKay-q6m]

I agree with Michael, at least go for it.

[@LinwoodSedgwick-v2d]

Thank you Paul😊

[@bigcoop45]

I agree with Paul on this one go get it fly Eagles fly 🦅

[@waynecsmith5145]

There is still the season + playoff rushing record…that is the one they should focus on…

[@jehushaphat]

I've seen teams play their top players in the last game only to have key players injured and lose in the playoffs; but then again I've seen teams take their foot off the gas and keep players off only to never be able to put their foot on the gas again in the playoffs.
