1. More Saquon Barkley dominance

Throughout the start of the season, the undoubted MVP of the NY Giants has been running back Saquon Barkley. Throughout the first four games, Barkley has run for a league high 463 yards alongside two TDs.

The Giants offense has relied on Barkley time and time again to make big plays for the team and he has not disappointed. Despite how elite the Packers pass defense has been this season, their run defense has not played that well, ranking 12th in rushing yards allowed, 21st in rushing TDs allowed, and 10th in yards per attempt. If the offensive line is able to give Barkley some room to make plays, he can easily take over the game this week.

Barkley has emerged as arguably the best running back in the NFL after back-to-back injury riddled seasons. If this level of play is able to continue, there are no doubts that he will win Comeback Player of the Year. The Giants need him to play like a man on a mission.
