For much of the season’s first half, Atlanta Falcons superstar Julio Jones just couldn’t score a touchdown. That’s no longer a concern.
With his Atlanta Falcons trailing by a touchdown to the Dallas Cowboys, Jones caught his third touchdown pass in as many weeks. The coverage on him was good, the pass was better, and the catch was phenomenal.
JULIOOOOOOOOO!

Twitter went nuts over Jones’ phenomenal play.
We went from “Julio never scores” to Julio has scored a TD in three straight games. He’s getting into the end zone.

That catch by Julio Jones is why he's worth every penny he gets. Guy is covered. Matt Ryan gives him a chance. And the game is tied.

Julio. Beast.

It was a highlight-reel game for Julio. Earlier in the game, he showed off some pretty impressive defensive skills (watch here).
Unfortunately for Jones and the Falcons, it wasn’t enough. While his touchdown did tie the game, the Cowboys responded by driving down the field to kick the game-winning field goal as time expired.
