its a team sport not an individual sport they want to win superbowls not individual awards. this game means nothing to them they already wrapped up the division and a playoff spot let you're starters rest.

I wish they would let him break the record

2,000+ yards in a 14 game season…

Give it to the man!!!

Edit: Saquan would need 428 rushing yards this week to beat out that average.

Awards definitely means something to players they all want to win awards. The superbowl is a reward.

And why not have both he can.

Why would Dickerson be so worried about his record he even said that.

Am i missing something in your post?

It's the right move.

If he got injured, at 74 yards or something and then Philly have no run game in the Superbowl and lose because of that, thr storyline would never die.


Even if he played the other argument is it wasn't within 16 games so doesn't count.

It's the right move for the team, the org and for Saquon because he's dangerous af going into the playoffs healthy and rested.

sure it would be awesome to win an award but you're missing the whole point there is no I in team Saquon would rather win a Superbowl then beat Eric dickerson single season rushing record. hard to do that if he got hurt in a meaningless game for the team

But he is not hurt right now. Thats not an argument thats projecting an outcome. You guys are acting like if he sits out he is guaranteed the superbowl.

He could get hurt or not just like in the playoff game. Just like he could play get the yards or maybe not get the yards.

And how can it be a waste of a game if he can take that specific record.

What if they dont win the superbowl but he could have hit the mark anyway.

Best excuse would be the games discrepancy.

Sounds like he wanted to play but wouldn't stand up for himself

E/ As an Eagles fan I know they aren't winning a bowl with a subpar passing game. Almost all the great offenses of the last 20 years were passers.

Incomplete teams rarely win it all.

I just find it stupid that people are making the no i in team argument. He has an online and tight ends does he not?
Like if he sits it out he wins the superbowl and they dont have to play and he will turn into steel and cant get hurt. He could get hurt any time.

HIS FUCKING O LINE WANTS IT what about the blocking from The tight ends? they want it.

They say its a team game well they all have part to do with it as well, and they want the record.

Its just a really odd mindset i dont understand.
