Saquon Barkley might be tipping plays at the line of scrimmage, and it is only a matter of time before opposing teams figure it out.

The Philadelphia Eagles got the win on Sunday, but they struggled a lot all game long.

The Eagles rallied back from 19 points down early in the third quarter to beat the Rams 33-26 at the Linc and improve to 3-0.

Their struggles on offense might be related to their starting running back and what he does before every play.

One social media user noticed that Saquon Barkley tends to keep his head straight forward whenever the team gets set to run. When it becomes a passing play, Saquon moves his head in the direction he knows he has to deliver a block.

There were enough clips in the video to show you how much this could become a problem in the future.

The bad play before their comeback was evident as Jalen Hurts was caught going off on his offensive coordinator during the game. Everything ended up working out for them, including getting away with yet another illegal tush push.

In Week 4, running back Saquon Barkley and the Philadelphia Eagles will meet the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

It will present yet another time to see if he can finally have a breakout game in 2025.

The Philadelphia Eagles running back came into the year after his legendary reverse hurdle, as featured on the cover of Madden NFL 26. He was also named to the Madden 99 Club — a first for an Eagles offensive player.

Barkley, the reigning Associated Press Offensive Player of the Year, is coming off one of the best seasons for a running back in NFL history. During the 2024 season, he rushed for 2,504 yards over the regular and postseason seasons, breaking the single-season record.

So far in 2025, he has 194 rushing yards through his first three games, averaging 3.3 yards per carry. He has also rushed for two touchdowns. Those aren’t mind-boggling numbers, but he is always a threat to bust out, so defenses have to account for him.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
