Saquon Barkley joined an exclusive club on Sunday afternoon but he couldn't have done it alone.
With a fourth quarter carry for 23 yards, the Eagles running back became just the ninth rusher in NFL history to eclipse 2,000 yards — adding his name to the list of: Eric Dickerson, Adrian Peterson, Jamal Lewis, Barry Sanders, Derrick Henry, Terrell Davis, Chris Johnson and the late O.J. Simpson.
After his 167-yard performance, Barkley posed for an awesome photo with Philadelphia's offensive linemen who helped pave the way for him to have a shot at breaking the all-time record.

Fans were loving the viral pic online.
"Saquon is 233 pounds and Landon Dickerson is holding him like a toddler," a user commented.
"SAQUON2K," Lane Johnson flexed.
"Landon Dickerson holding Saquon like a small child after playing a whole-[expletive] NFL game. What a unit," a fan pointed out.
"Ts so beautiful man," another said.
See what happens when you invest in an o-line," a Philly native tagged the Giants.
"Hang it in the [expletive] Louvre!!"
"Giants lose the #1 pick and Saquon hits 2k the same day, their gm deserves jail time," another person posted.
"The vibes are immaculate."
It's awesome to see the love Saquon has for the big fellas up front.
He's been everything the Eagles could've hoped for since arriving from the Big Apple and is the definition of the kind of guy you'd like to build your offense around (sorry Giants).
We'll see if the two-time Pro Bowler goes for the record next week. But even if he doesn't, what a season it's been.
