If they both played 16 games against the same schedule, who would have better numbers?
I think Julio will have more catches, but I give AJ the nod in yards and TD maybe...IDK bruh, AJ just has that Megatron quality...ya know, just throw the fricker up for grabs and let the freak make the play kinda shite? It's a good debate, can't really call anyone a dumb arse for arguing either way!

Hmm. Jones logged stats in all but one game. Somebody is wrong here.
I don't give a shite about Atlanta, I checked in on Julio sometimes but that was it. The article said he missed three games or something so I went with what it said.

AJ is better right now. Julio has the potential to be top 3 WR in the league imo. What he can do after the catch is just unreal. I love watching him catch the ballin the seam and taking it to the house. His burst is

The O-line needs to be greatly improved for JJ to build off last season

I wrote a long fairly analytical post on Julio vs Green on the sec rant in a thread that was unfortunately deleted. They were both on my fantasy team last season, so I followed both closely. Green played a much more difficult schedule in terms of passing defenses, maybe the toughest in the NFL, and went up against the opposing team's #1 corner every game. Julio played a ridiculously soft schedule and was getting second and sometimes third DBs. Green also had better per target numbers. Julio is really good, but he's no AJ

Matt Ryan may very well be on Drew Brees level next year. Especially with him having no Payton there as his HC. Ryan had the better season two years ago.

Lmao ryan will NEVER be on drews level. That's just stupid..

Atlanta's O-line is pourous. Turner disappeared towards the end of the season last year, except when they played a Tampa Bay team who had thrown in the towel several weeks before that
Julio should do well though. They'll be throwing it a lot.
AJ > Julio.
Say what you will about the Falcons but they have a lot more talent at the skill positions than Cincy. AJ will command a lot more attention than Julio this year but I'd bet AJ has the better year anyway. JMO.

Roddy White is the most targeted WR in the league and Matt Ryan has the arm of Casey Dick. Those things alone will prevent Julio from ever becoming the palyer he is supposed to be.

for the fricking love of God...
Ryan had a more efficient season 2 years ago...and the majority of that credit can go to Turner having a phenomenal year running people over.

ITP : No one knows that posting "tbh" after saying something usually means you're not being 100% truthful.
I think Jones will be better 10 years down the road. Not right now though, sadly.

Of course you do, youre a Bama fan. Its not in your DNA to give any other player from other schools credit.

It hurt him a lot last year. The jump ball isn't Julio's strongest area, and Ryan underthrows 90% of the deep passes he attempts.
True, but I think that their OC wasn't using their weapons properly. Atlanta's offense should strive to be more like New England's in that they spread you out and let the WRs and other skill players make yards after the catch. Julio excels at this, and they should play to his strength in that way.
Ryan isn't a good deep ball passer, but he's extremely accurate in the short to intermediate passing game. Play guys like Snelling and Rodgers more in the backfield (Turner is a non-factor in the passing game) and they can be more effective, IMO.

I think Julio is better than AJ, but I think AJ will have better numbers bc he's the go to guy in the offense

Atlanta's offense is primed to explode this year with the former Jaguar OC piloting the ship
Falcon fans have to hype up Julio because they basically crippled their drafts for the second best receiver. Julio will be a guy who always has a "hamstring" issue. He'll miss 3-5 games a year consistently
