Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones had monster year in 2015 season.

The All-Pro wideout had 136 receptions for 1,871 yards - 93 short of the NFL single-season record.

So far this season he has 40 catches for 830 yards - that equals to about 122 yards per game - greatly aided by his 300-yard performance against the Carolina Panthers.

At that rate, Jones would finish with 1,952 yards - still short of Calvin Jones' NFL-record 1,964 receiving yards set in 2012.

But that doesn't stop the discussion:

The Falcons face the Green Bay Packers at the Georgia Dome Sunday. In 2012, Jones torched the Packers for 259 yards.

A few games like that and that record could be history.
