Saquon Barkley hints he could retire as soon as next year to go out like Barry Sanders

[CowboysFanLover]

Hopefully he can convince Jalen Carter and AJ Brown to retire too

He can but it would not matter since Eagles can get good players to replace Jalen and Brown since Eagles are very good at drafting

barkley simply does not have the stats or skins (All Pro, etc) to get into the HOF

I was ambivalent about Terrel Davis getting in myself

Gale Sayers stats were not what mattered

You look at game film of him and he was incredible in the open field
I have never seen a better one ever
there were times when it looked like everyone else but him were in slo mo

Certainly by the numbers he should hot have gotten in; he never fully recovered from that knee injury

I remember the debate about Davis getting in was that he shined only for a short period/ If I remember correctly, the argument for him was partially based on Gale Sayers getting in when his greatness was also brief.

Barkley has only had one really outstanding season; that should not get you in the HOF
and since it was in 16 games getting just over 2000 yds is really not all that great.

You don’t think Saquon was, “really that great” last season. You sure about that?

I think he just afraid to go against the daunting interior defense that the Cowboys have, lol

It would be very smart for him to retire as soon as possible to protect what is left of his health.

I hope the Madden cover jinx happens I just do guys already big and puffy and with a big giant head saying oh I'm going to do like Berry Sanders retire early you know what I think he just sealed the curse.lol.

If Barkley retires next year is he a HOFer? He already has Terrell Davis like rushing stats in his career but is needing one more SB to truly equal Davis level.

I think so, yes.

Not a top 10 RB in NFL History but yes he's a legit HOF back imho.

I will counter with Fat Albert!

Yep. Look at history dude. That was barely top 10 all time in a lot of ways
13 TDs is good but not great
5.8 YPC is way up there I agree
2005 yds in 16 games equals 125 yds a game which is up there but has been beaten a fair number of times.
And one great season does not earn anyone a yellow jacket

Damn. I would have succeeded too if it hadn't been for you pesky kid!
