Saquon Barkley lives up to Eagles promise as they reach Super Bowl

Matt Hasselbeck joins Colin Cowherd to break down what makes the Philadelphia Eagles’ Tush Push play unstoppable. They discuss the strategy, execution, and why opposing defenses can’t seem to stop it.

Green and white confetti filled Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on Sunday night just as the Eagles had planned – they were going to Super Bowl LIX.

The Eagles are returning to the "Big Game," aiming for revenge against the Kansas City Chiefs, who are not only trying to make NFL history but beat Philadelphia in Super Bowl LVII to begin this dynasty. 

For some of these Eagles, though, it’s the first time they’re getting a chance at the Vince Lombardi Trophy, and superstar running back Saquon Barkley is one of them.

When Barkley signed with the Eagles in free agency, after spending six seasons with the NFC East-rival New York Giants, he made a promise to get to the Super Bowl. Now that it’s actually happened, Barkley’s next goal is a simple one: Beat the Chiefs. 

"That was one of the first conversations I had with [Eagles GM] Howie [Roseman]," Barkley said, via CBS Sports, after the 55-23 win over the Washington Commanders. "That was the conversation I had with my family. I came to Philly to be a part of games like this. Nothing better than a game when you can advance to the Super Bowl, so I’m super excited about that."
