Summary
Dallas beat Philadelphia 38-21 on Monday night, per AP. Saquon Barkley returned from a hamstring injury, scored on an 8-yard run, per the NFL gamebook, and later left with a back injury, according to NFL.com. The show argues Philadelphia's offense depends on Barkley being healthy. Its main question is whether the 2-5 Colts should trade Jonathan Taylor. The show's answer: do not dump him, but listen if a team overpays. The episode also runs through injury notes, Week 8 waiver names and NBA and NHL scores.
