Julio Jones expects Panthers to adjust

Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones expects the Panthers to adjust the way they cover him this week.

Considering he burned them for 300 yards in their first meeting last year, that’s a reasonable expectation.

Jones knows things are different this time through, and is trying to be ready for anything.

“Obviously, they’re going to do some things to probably limit those things we did in the past, especially me, but we’ll see,” Jones said, via Matt Winkeljohn of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

How did he do in the 2nd matchup? I seem to remember Bradbury covering him quite well, though everyone else had a field day.

Saw in Rivera's presser yesterday the entire gameplan last year was built around Bradberry shadowing Julio.

Bradberry went down and they had to insert Benwikere in Bradberry's place. 

Did not go well.

I would imagine we won’t put an injured Bene on him one on one most of the game

Won't lie, the headline gave me a bit of a chuckle.

Julio Jones: "I expect the Panthers to adjust."

Ron Rivera: "NEVER!!!"

Julio's been quiet all season.

That said....sounds like Julio thinks they playing in the Georgia Dome this week 

Jones hasn’t cracked 100 yards since 2011 at Carolina

You forgetting Sanu and Freeman will be out there plus few more players that can help Atlanta burn us. If Julio is covered who will cover for Sanu and we have some lacking ability to stop the run without big guys we need to stuff the run. Atlanta can still have a field day with us if we don't show up to play and get back on track.

Julio never does much in Carolina.  Bradberry will have him too.

biggest worry is whoever Worley is covering.  Gotta watch Gabriel too. He dangerous

Coverage schemes are completely irrelevant.  Peppers, Addison, and Short will keep Matt on his back all day.

I expect Gabriel to burn Whiff a few times. Really worried about Gabriel. I could see Hooper having one of those 3 Rec 105 Yd games also

I would love to get Gab next yr from FA as another speed option with good history. He's got wheels.
