Julio Jones - the problem child


CRA

Recommended Posts

That is our problem come Sunday.

555 yards the past 3 weeks. He has done so against better secondaries than ours (for all the people that will quickly reply we have Norman)

We have to win upfront IMO. BIG time come Sunday. Julio is playing the best of his career right now

Bottom line is we've got to score TD's in the red zone...Fans know it, players know it, coaches know it.

 

Julio is playing like the best player in the entire division right now no doubt, but I do think Norman played him as well in the first game as anyone has in the 2nd half of the season, so that is promising.

Norman matches up well against Julio. Did so during the last game. Its Roddy that you need to worry about. Hopefully, Bene will help with that.

Outcome of this game will be decided in the first quarter. If our dline can get pressure on Ryan, he will get that 'deer in the headlights' look again, and the game will be ours. If he gets a comfortable pocket and has time to pick us apart, it will be a long day.

I agree with that. Roddy and even harry douglas in the slot could be dangerous. Yeah Ryan isnt one of those tough qbs. He gets lit up and his fear factor escalates very quickly. Similar to Dalton in that respect.

Yep

 

We can let him go wild on us for yardage and a TD but if we are only kicking FGs then we are dead.

what exactly was his stats against us last time?

So I guess we can pencil in Stewart's stats from last time?

Things change. He is playing better than at any point in his career CURRENTLY.....and will be in the dome not our grass.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
