Saquon Barkley among MVP finalists in first season with Eagles

Look away, Giants fans, as you're not going to like this. Last offseason, Saquon Barkley made countless headlines when he decided to leave East Rutherford and suit up for the Philadelphia Eagles. The move has proven to be genius for him.
Barkley put up historic numbers for the Eagles in 2024 and he has this team, along with Jalen Hurts, one win away from getting back to the Super Bowl. Thanks to his fantastic play, as expected, No. 26 has been named an MVP finalist:

No surprise here, as Barkley indeed was the best running back in the league this past season. It's him, plus QBs Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, Jared Goff and Josh Allen as the five players in the hunt to take home the NFL's highest individual honor. Someone check in on John Mara - he's probably having a ton of difficulty sleeping after seeing this. Can't blame him for that.
