1. Saquon Barkley will keep doing his thing

Saquon Barkley has been without a doubt the best player on the NY Giants outside of their superstar left tackle in Thomas. Almost no team has had an answer for Barkley yet, and it is hard to see that changing this week.

Barkley still leads the NFL in yards from scrimmage with 771, which is rather impressive considering the offensive line he has to play behind. Even if Barkley is not able to get things going on the ground, we know what he is capable of in the receiving game. It will be nearly impossible for the Jaguars to have a chance at containing him.

Throughout the first six games, Barkley has not only made a case for the Comeback Player of the Year award, but you could really make the argument that he should be in the MVP race as well.

Regardless, Barkley is the that straw that stirs the drink for the Giants offense at times and if this team wants to win, they must continue to rely on just how talented he is. Feed Barkley early and often against Jacksonville and good things will happen.
