Atlanta Falcons receiving duo of Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley will become the leagues best in 2020.
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan is due for a big season. Luckily for him, it’s very likely he will do so with an improved offensive line and better ground game. Ryan also has two very talented receivers to throw to.
Whether you follow the Atlanta Falcons or not, everyone knows about the greatness of Julio Jones. Outside of his rookie season when he was the number two guy and 2013 when he was sidelined with an injury, Jones had been a walking thousand-yard receiver.
This season, people shouldn’t expect anything different next season especially if Ryan gets the protection he needs. This will be the season that Jones finally gets 10 plus touchdowns, but he isn’t the only person capable of putting up numbers like this.
Julio Jones is the only receiver in NFL history that has recorded six straight seasons of at least 1,300 yards receiving. Start putting respect on his name.
Calvin Ridley has been very good during his time with the Falcons and believe it or not, there’s still another level he can reach. If Ridley had not gotten injured down the stretch in 2019, there’s no doubt Ridley would have easily reached 1,000 yards in only his second season.
The pieces are in place for the Atlanta Falcons to have one of the best passing attacks in the league in 2020, and with that, Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley will be the best receiving duo in the NFL.
Atlanta Falcons will benefit once again from an elite duo
There is not more talented duo in the league when healthy and Ridley still has the room to grow. This duo has the potential to surpass the production and potency of the Roddy White/Julio Jones when they combined for 10,986 yards and 60 touchdowns from 2011-2015.
This will be the year that Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley tandem become the best in the NFL while Julio will once again prove why he’s the best in the NFL and Ridley will reach another level to make this duo unstoppable.
