A lot was made of Saquon Barkley's decision to leave the New York Giants and join the Philadelphia Eagles. And when the Eagles started off the season at 2-2 some started to believe that Barkley may have made a mistake. But now, the Eagles are by far the best team in the NFL riding a seven-game winning streak after their win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Barkley played a big part in their victory, notching 255 rushing yards and two touchdown runs including a big one for 70 yards.

 

 

 

 

Jayden Daniels Comes Up Clutch

 

Jayden Daniels has had one rollercoaster of a rookie season. And despite the sporadic nature of the Commanders' 2024 season, one thing has been set in stone — Daniels is as clutch as they come. After pulling out a miracle hail mary against the Bears earlier this season, Daniels got back to his clutch ways against the Cowboys on Sunday, hooking up with receiver Terry McClaurin for an 86-yard touchdown, that almost tied the game in the fourth quarter, if not for the missed PAT attempt. This kid has the goods.

 

 

Turpin, NFL's Fastest Man, Turns on The Jets

 

The Dallas Cowboys have not had a lot to celebrate this season. They came into Sunday's game against the Commanders sitting in 3rd place in the NFC East with a record of 3-7. But one of the few bright spots for Dallas this season has been their kick returner KaVonte Turpin, the fastest player in the NFL. Turpin showed off his speed in the second half of the matchup hitting Washington's special teams with a daunting spin move before returning the kick 95 yards to the house.

 

 

Caleb Williams Gets Elusive

 

Despite a down season for the Bears, Caleb Williams has shown flashes of why he was the top pick in last year's NFL Draft. For the most part, it has been Williams's accuracy that has been on display, but in their matchup against the Vikings On Sunday, Williams showed off his elusiveness, hurdling defenders in a Mahomes-like fashion to secure a first down.  

 

 

AJ Brown Sets NFL on Fire With Toe Tap

When you talk about the best receivers in the NFL today, the names that usually come up are Tyreek Hills, Ja'Marr Chase, and Justin Jefferson. But one name that is often omitted is A.J. Brown and that should not be the case as he has proved time and again that he is one of the NFL's most elite receivers. Brown hasn't had his name called much this season as he has missed several games due to injury. But on Sunday against the Rams, he showed why he is among the NFL's elite with an unreal touchdown catch.
