RUTHERFORD Zack Martin Jersey , N.J. (AP) — While the NFL rushing title might be a little out of reach heading into the final week of the regular season, halfback Saquon Barkley is probably going to end his rookie season with the New York Giants with his share of records.The No. 2 overall pick in the NFL draft has one league record within reach, can join a very select group of players with his yards from scrimmage total, and he can add to his windfall of Giants records.“He’s one of those rare guys,” said Dallas coach Jason Garrett, whose NFC East champion Cowboys (9-6) will face Barkley and the Giants (5-10) on Sunday at MetLife Stadium“We watched the whole season and he just continues to show up, he is a great football player, and I think everybody felt that way about him coming out of school,” Garrett added. “He was such a dominant player at Penn State and he’s just continued that. The challenge is, he beats you so many different ways. He can run the ball inside, he can bounce it and win on the edges, he’s a really good pass receiver, he’s great run-after-catch Deonte Thompson Color Rush Jersey , he’s physical, he’s hard to bring down with one guy but he’s got quickness and explosiveness, acceleration and speed.”Barkley’s statistics are impressive. He has rushed for 1,198 yards and 10 touchdowns, caught a team-high 87 passes for 688 yards and four touchdowns, and accumulated 1,886 yards from scrimmage.The 21-year-old running back enters the week third in the league in rushing. He is 236 yards behind Ezekiel Elliott of the Cowboys and 183 behind Todd Gurley of the Rams.Barkley needs two receptions to break Reggie Bush’s NFL mark (88) for rookie running backs, set in 2006. He needs 114 yards from scrimmage to join Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson (2,212 yards in 1983) and Edgerrin James (2,139 in 1999) as only rookies with at least 2,000 scrimmage yards in NFL history.He has already broken the team’s rookie record for yards rushing, needs 2 yards to become the fourth Giant with 1,200 yards rushing https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Sean-Lee-Jersey , and one rushing TD to set the team record, which he now shares with Bill Paschal (1943).“Not really worried about the records,” Barkley said Thursday. “I care less if I get to 2,000 or if I get the two receptions. I think it’ll be great, it’ll be special for not only myself, but for the team. It would be more special if we get a win.”Not winning the majority of games has been an adjustment for Barkley.“I learned that you’re going to be tested in the NFL,” he said. “There’s going to be highs, there’s going to be lows. You got to stay poised through it all. No matter what, you got to come in and you got to continue to work, continue to have that mindset to get better every single day.”Less than a month ago, Barkley talked about challenging for a rushing title. The dream went out the window the past two games as Tennessee and Indianapolis held him to a combined 74 yards rushing.With wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. out of the lineup with a quad injury, it allowed the Titans and Colts to load the box many times and limit Barkley. New York’s offensive line also has been spotty.Barkley raised a few eyebrows momentarily when he said refused to say the rushing title was out of reach.“You never know,” he said laughing. “I’m just kidding Tyron Smith Jersey , but honestly, you never know. I’m not all about winning rushing titles, or ‘Me, Me, Me,’ but I do believe that I want to be a great player in this league, and I want to go down as one of the best to play in this league, and that’s something you got to do. If you look at all the great running backs, they at least got one (rushing title).”Barkley said his goal Sunday is to compete for his teammates and win. He won’t wait long to get back to work.“Figure out how I can go from doing what I did in my rookie year, and even elevate it to another level,” he said.That would be a pretty good year, too.NOTES: Beckham is looking less likely to play Sunday after missing Thursday’s practice. He has not played the last three games. … Also not practicing: LB Alec Ogletree (concussion), DL Mario Edwards (calf) Jason Witten Color Rush Jersey , TE Rhett Ellison (concussion) and WR Russell Shepard (ankle). LB B.J. Goodson (foot) was limited. WR Sterling Shepard (hip) and C Spencer Pulley (calf) practiced fully after being limited Wednesday. …Left-footed punter Brock Miller was re-signed to the practice squad. Dallas has a left-footed punter, Chris Jones.

Just a few years ago he was a teammate with many of the players on the Cowboys roster. He, along with his teammates, were the ones listening to the coaches, attending meetings and taking notes, studying playbooks and trying to stay up with all the things players must do. Last year, that abruptly changed when he retired from being a player and moved into the position of quarterback coach. Suddenly, he was the one on the front of the room running the show for Dak Prescott and the backup quarterbacks. This year, that has gone one step further. Moore now is in control of the entire offense. Players he had played with recently now look to him as a coach. Or do they? According to Dak Prescott, they most definitely do as Moore has had no issue in taking command. Anybody who has ever been in a situation where you are suddenly promoted to be the boss of people who were formerly your co-workers knows how delicate that situation can be. It needs to be handled with care, but Moore seems to get it so far. One side of the equation is demanding the respect you need to be the boss https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Demarcus-Lawrence-Jersey , but the other side is listening to the workers that were once your peer group. Moore is doing that too says Prescott. In the offseason, optimism always abounds. So far, the team has had nothing but rave reviews for the work Moore is doing. Of course, that’s almost all you will ever hear in this situation. Everyone wants to believe in the new coach and think that he can elevate a particular area of the team, or the whole team in the case of a new head coach. This is standard for the offseason in the NFL.Moore needs to set the groundwork now for what he wants to accomplish this year, because there is not a lot of room for error. The expectations are high for the Cowboys, and Jason Garrett is working on the last year of his contract. Dallas is all-in for this season, and if it doesn’t go right, Jerry Jones might just decide it is time to blow up the coaching staff and go in a new direction. Everyone is expecting Moore to put his stamp on the offense, to make changes that hurt the team under Scott Linehan.He’s got the buy-in from the players now, he’ll need to keep it when the rubber hits the road and they start playing the games.
