Julio Jones - the problem child

[imminent rogaine]

Agree with OP. We've already found the formula to beat these guys. Normally it is to let Hardy ball out. Others will need to step up. We get to the QB, we win the game.

Need 2 tds from wrs at the very least. 2 on the ground would nice and lets get 2 fgs while we are talking. 34 will win it.

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.

Norman doesn't that well in reality. Norman isn't actually that fast. Julio is.

If Ryan has time. Norman can't cover Julio presently. No one is doing it.

Yep.

Charles Johnson has been playing better and better. He needs to have his best game of the season. The way to beat them is up front

Meh, we've got Josh Norman.

Doesn't it feel great to be able to say that and actually mean it as opposed to last year saying it sarcastically?!

Duh

Neither is sherman. He matches up well due to his physicality and size (for a cb).

Obviously no cb in the world can cover Julio if Matty Ice has time to make espresso back there. No one in their right mind is saying that. Saying we need pressure is like saying the sky is blue. Norman still deserves his props.

[Mojo]

Your a pansy...

Norman roughed him up in bump and run last time I expect to see it again.

He just doesn't like giving Norman love. This is the same guy that was arguing with me earlier in the season taking up for Cason.

And Sherman can get beat deep....if the opposing QB has time. He got beat last night by scrubs....they dropped a 50+ yarder on Sherman. He got beat though

I'm expecting Kony Ealy to ball out and get 2 sacks.

[weyco2000]

Since the last game with Atlanta, our secondary has allowed only 1 QB to pass for over 200 yards. Brees had 218, most of it was in garbage time.

No shitt. I said that in the second half of my post.

I'm just not a homer.

Norman has his pros and cons. He does well being physical. He is also very atheltic which lets him make plays other can't.

If you don't get to Ryan....Juilio will whip him presently.

Again, Julio is currently playing at a level he never has.....and BETTER CBs than Norman are getting whipped. Gotta take the fandom out.

Is Norman better than Patrick Peterson? Go watch what Julio did the other week to that man.

What happened in Carolina means little right now

[t96]

Hate to say it, but he looked far from 100% against the Saints and I hope he doesn't improve much for our game. If he was even at 90% against them he'd have had 250 yards. 107 against the Aints means that if he doesn't improve for ours, Norman could hold him to like 50ish. I'm not super worried about him. Actually more worried about Roddy on Bene and Douglas on Colin. Roddy's veteran know how may be able to take advantage of Bene's little experience, and I'm worried about Colin in the nickel. His coverage skills aren't that good.

[CRA]

He was also probably slacking off the game was out of reach lol.....

Norman has given up 1 TD this season..... hes held down Calvin Johnson, Jerimy Maclin, Julio Jones, Mike Evans, Josh Gordon... ect.

never mind i'm talking to CRA lmao.... but one big play probably won't lose the game for us and Jones won't beat Norman consistently...

Sherman got burnt early in that game. WR simply dropped and poorly played what should of been a huge play. I don't think Sea was even up.

Sanchez, McCown, Manzeil/Hoyer....

And I don't think Norman even played in the Lions game....but heck, let's credit him too for that.
