PHILADELPHIA (CBSNewYork/AP) — New York rookie Saquon Barkley made his latest 50-yard sprint against the Eagles look easy, bursting through the middle untouched and into the end zone.

Barkley dominated the first half and the Giants seemed poised to extend their improbable turnaround against a depleted secondary and feeble offense in Philadelphia.

But as Barkley’s carries dried up in the second half, so did New York’s faint playoff hopes.

Barkley carried the ball four times in the second half. Odell Beckham Jr. cramped up and stretched out on the sideline.
