"Josh Norman has not seen a guy on Julio Jones's level"

The general consensus among pregame shows is that Jones is the best receiver in the NFL (I disagree, but admit that he is pretty damned good). Harrison even calls him the leagues #1 receiver. If that is the case, the logic would dictate that it would be impossible  for Norman to face anyone on his level.

The more important fact is this...Julio Jones has not faced a CB on Josh Norman's level!

Fug Rodney Harrison!

heh, the point of this thread is that Norman has faced Jones numerous times.

And of course if you have a Julio Jones, who leads the league in receptions, you're not gonna be on a 5 game losing streak. Just like if your leading WR is tied for 81st in receptions there's no way you'll be 12-0.

Last Dec. those 4 receptions Jones had were crucial to their successful passing game of 260 yards (and a total of 3 points), while our total receptions (10) contributed to our poor performance in the passing game and a disappointing 34 points.

So stat wise, it's clear that having the best receiver in the game means everything when it comes to a successful season.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
