I usually like to see us play teams at their best but I dunno, in a tight playoff race I feel like we could use all the breaks we can get. He could be the difference between W/L for us
That will be huge if he cant go.

Man, tough break for Atlanta if he cannot play. Huge loss for them if he doesn't go, but if he does, he will be in for a big game.
I shall not shed a tear to see Julio on the sideline in sweats...
Roooolll Tide Roll!!!!!

It might be smart for them to sit them, I think they can lose to us, then win their last two and win the division.
If they loose to us they will need help. They are tied with the aints who play bears falcons and Tampa bay, if we had that schedule I'd be worried about losing all three. Falcons have the same thing we do win out and win the division. Drop one game and maybe you can be in with tie breakers as long as it is not the game with the saints.
This will be a serious battle between the desperate.

Jones will be a "game day decision". Apparently missing a week of practice in preparation to play against the Steelers secondary is not an issue with the Falcs.
Without an effective pass rush or give Matt Ryan a reason to rethink his passing game, well let's hope the Steelers score more points than Atlanta.

I think Jones plays even if he is only a decoy.
With or without Julio, I think they are going to get Hester involved to take advantage of our secondary.

I never wish for injuryn to ANY player !!!!! But, one must take full advantage of an injury situation.

Roddy White is banged up, too. I like our chances even if they both play. Hit them heard and often. Especially, Matty Ice!!!
If Julio is the decoy and Hester is the main target, that would/should play out nicely for the Steelers As a receiver, Hester's career totals are equal to about two excellent seasons for AB. In 136 games he has 244 receptions for 3,169 yards and 15 TDs, averaging 23.3 receiving yards/game. That said, our secondary has made a habit of making average to below average receivers look like Julio Jones, so who's to say what would happen?
Honestly , I almost cry when I watch that video reminiscing on how bad *** this team used to be. I'm not embarrassed to admit it.

that's right. This game is actually meaningless to them. They are eliminated from wildcard, so all they can do is win their crappy division. They finish with 2 division games, so that's all that matters to them.
They should sit Jones if he's hurt at all. But Jones will probably lie and say he feels great because he wants a shot at the Steelers ****** secondary.

Falcons need no help to win the division because they play both the Saints and Panthers. They win their division if they win those 2 games. If they beat the Steelers and then lose to the Saints or Panthers, then they need help. The Steeler game doesn't really help them.
One of their local reporters says he can barely walk and won't play I have him on my fantasy team and, as of this morning, they show him projected to get 0 points.
As per ESPN - Julio is OUT today...

Just saw a comment (don't know if it is true!) that NFL network just reported that he is going to try and go today. Said he would go out for warmups.
Double team White and we should be good. No excuses!
