Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones finished with nine catches for 141 yards and two touchdowns in the 26-24 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night.

Here’s want Jones had to say after the game to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

Q: How did the offense play tonight?

A: We did a good job early on. We just have to finish better. But just overall as a unit. We played great ball today.

Q: Is the offense coming together?

A: Most definitely, we got those young guys running the ball early on with our offensive line. Those guys did a great job tonight. They allowed Matt to throw the ball down the field and they also opened up some holes for those young guys to run through.

Q: How much better can the offense get?

A: We just have to keep working. Keep coming to practice and keep getting better. We have to never settle. Whatever happens, happens. We just have to leave it out there on the field.

Q: Did you and Byron Maxwell talk out on the field?

A: I never say anything about the opponent that I'm going against. But he's a great player. We didn't go back and forth. We didn't talk crap or nothing like that.
