The Eagles opted for the smart play, keeping its top tailback healthy — and ensuring Dickerson’s rushing record hits a fifth decade.

Dickerson broke O.J. Simpson's previous rushing yards record in 1984, almost a decade after the former Heisman Trophy winner set his mark. Now, 40 years after Dickerson's incredible feat, Barkley has the chance to make his own history... and hopefully the Eagles give him that chance.
