The green and white confetti filled Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on Sunday evening as the Eagles had planned – they went to the Super Bowl Lix.
The Eagles return to the “Big Game”, aiming to take revenge on the chiefs of Kansas City, who are not only trying to make the history of the NFL but to beat Philadelphia in the Super Bowl LVII to start this dynasty.
For some of these eagles, however, it is the first time that they have a chance at the Vince Lombardi trophy, and the Superstar carrier of Ballon Saquon Barkley is one of them.

When Barkley signed with the Eagles in the Free Agency, after spending six seasons with the Giants of New York NFC East-Rival, he made a promise to go to the Super Bowl. Now that it has happened, Barkley’s next goal is simple: beat the chiefs.
“It was one of the first conversations with which I had [Eagles GM] Howie [Roseman]”Said Barkley, via CBS Sports, after the 55-23 victory against Washington commanders.” It was the conversation I had with my family. I came to Philly to be part of games like this. Nothing better than a game where you can go to the Super Bowl, so I’m super excited about it. “”

Barkley has certainly made his role by helping his team get the ticket for New Orleans, marking three affected and rushing even more than 100 meters in this best career campaign to which he continues to add.
Barkley is himself at the dawn of history, because it seems intended to beat the NFL record for most yards on the ground of a season, including the playoffs, that the temple of fame Terllll Davis currently has with 2476 yards. Barkley has 2,447 after its 118 yards on Sunday.

He obtained most of them on the first offensive snap of the games of the game – a rush of 60 yards where he broke several commanders who attack attempts to find the goal area for the advance of 7-3 . This marked its third affected by 60 or more yards in the playoffs – the most in the history of the NFL.
Individual story is great to have, as Barkley said it wanted to be in the same conversation as Davis, Barry Sanders, Eric Dickerson and many other ball carrier elites when the giants brought him to the second Row of Penn State.
But Barkley’s team approach has always shone, and winning it means everything.
“I always knew who I am,” he said. “I have always known the type of player I have become. Sometimes it takes more time than the others. I did not imagine taking it seven years. I did not even imagine that he was in Philly. I thought it would be in New York.

“But no time is better than God’s time.”
If the Eagles have to eliminate Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, Barkley’s performance will be critical, as she has done all season.
