“Individually they're Pro Bowlers, but together they could be Super Bowl bound. Julio Jones and Matt Ryan's championship journey starts this Saturday when they take on the ‘Legion of Boom.’ ”
That's the tagline for this Fox promo for Saturday's NFC Divisional Playoff game between the Falcons and Seahawks (4:35 p.m. at the Georgia Dome).
Matt Ryan, in his ninth season with the Falcons, has proven to be pretty accurate. We charted his 534 regular season passes.
A year after leading the league in receiving yards, Julio Jones has 83 of 129 passes for 1,409 yards. (Including one amazing body-twisting touchdown grab in Tampa.)
The Falcons and Seahawks played earlier this season in Seattle. The Seahawks won 26-24 amid a controversial play. Jones says there's no bad blood, however.
Saturday's matchup is a rematch of the 2012 NFC Divisional Playoff won by the Falcons at the Georgia Dome on a last-minute kick.
