If you watch HS and college RBs, you'll note the best ones immediately kick it to the outside when the middle clogs up. In the NFL, the edge rushers and OLBs are so fast that that's really hard to do. Barkley is not a lower his shoulder and hit the hole guy (like Skattebo). Barkely stutters and weaves. That's why he'll be like 10 carries for 23 yards then go 40 in one carry to the end zone. That's great for some teams (with passing games) and terrible for teams that rely on the run.

Barkley's 2018 rookie season highlights with the Giants. Note his constant runs to the outside.
