Julio Jones: I have to execute better

“I think our early defensive success gave us a certain confidence in what we were doing, and when we relied on that later …” It could make the Falcons a Super Bowl favorite in the NFC. On the first one he had a bone-crushing lead-block. “We’re going to keep drilling it like insane”.

In each of the three games this season, they’ve come from behind to pull of a win, leading analysts to suspect that this might not be the Falcons of the last few seasons.

Jones and Freeman carried the offense with 226 yards on a combined 27 touches in the second half.

Julio has been on a massive tear for the Falcons, nabbing 34 receptions with more than 135 receiving yards in each of three games, both National Football League records.

But the 5-foot-8 Freeman, a former fourth-round pick, was making his first career start and had fallen behind Tevin Coleman on the depth chart.

“I think two of the adjectives or words that help me describe Patrick DiMarco are smart and tough”, Quinn said”. “He knows where to be and he’s physical when he does it. He’s a really important guy to us”.

“I hope when people watch us play that the effort comes through, the toughness comes through, the finish comes through”, he said. (Profound stuff, eh?) Kyle Shanahan is taking full advantage of his new toy, giving defensive players PTSD in the process. “We’ve known each other now for nine months”.
