Eagles running back Saquon Barkley took responsibility for his drop late in Monday night's game when a catch could have sealed a win over the Falcons.
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley reacts to his late-game drop that allowed the Falcons to get back into the game. Tim McManus covers the Philadelphia Eagles for ESPN. He joined ESPN in 2016 after covering the Eagles for Philadelphia Magazine's Birds 24/7, a site he helped create, since 2010. You can follow him on Twitter @Tim_McManus.
The probability of the Eagles winning if they went for it on fourth down following the Barkley drop was 95% compared to 90% by kicking it."I trust every day of the week to make a play, just like everybody else. We'll be better from it," he said. Barkley now has 16 drops since the start of the 2021 season, the most by any running back in that time.
