NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Saquon Barkley rushed for 31 yards in the first half of Philadelphia's Super Bowl win and set the NFL season rushing record, postseason included, topping the mark of 2,476 yards set by Terrell Davis. The AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year needed only 30 yards to top Davis’ total set in 1998 when he helped the Denver Broncos win the Super Bowl. Also that season, Davis was the last running back to win Super Bowl MVP. Barkley finally got the mark after a slow first half on a 2-yard run on the last play of the half. Barkley finished with a modest 57 yards rushing in Eagles’ 40-22 win over Kansas City.
