WR PHI (10)
Sun 11/6/11 5:39 PM11 Comments

Julio Jones broke out for 131 yards and two touchdowns on three receptions and 33 yards on two carries to lead the Falcons to a 31-7 victory over the Colts in Week 9. Jones proved to be over his hamstring injury on a pair of explosive end-arounds. He first got on the board with a diving catch of a 50-yard bomb in triple coverage in the end zone before outracing the entire Colts defense for an 80-yard score on a slant. Now averaging 88.3 total yards per game, Jones is a viable WR2 option going forward. Keep him in the lineup for next week's game against the Saints.

Anybody that knew anything about football, and had Julio Jones saw this coming, maybe not two TDs, but he was going to get at least one.

I started him too thanks to a bye week situation. Hell, he may be a keeper for me if he can keep this up! Lol.

Welcome to the NFL Julio.

he's already had a couple 100 yard games, hardly a break out. although the touchdowns are nice to finally see. he wasn't huge for TDs in college for some reason and i was getting worried it be more of the same in the nfl

3 receptions is kind of key here. Remember adding Harry Douglass 2 years ago and starting him after a similar performance opposite roddy? Worth picking up, but on a "normal" day 30 of those points are Roddy's and Gonzo's.

Oh I'm in a dynasty league, so I guess my opinion is a little skewed to rookies
