Not only Julio Jones is one of the best receivers of today. But he also has a great attitude and a great respect for the game. Deion Sanders is definitely one of the best to ever play the game at his position. And to credit and compliment Julio that says a lot. 💯
I remember seeing this not long after it was posted. Julio never let his individual success get to him, nor did he stray away from the selfless mentality. No surprise he was so successful. Breaks my heart he didn’t get the ring he deserved though. That catch in the super bowl is overshadowed by the loss, but I’ve never seen a catch like that before or since. One of my all time favorites.
+antiignorant that's my point though, you've tried it. so either you're a coach or a player,rule#1 never give away your secrets to success. make them mfers work for it! I know julio is the real deal,I've been watching him since high school but this just sounds to realistic on how he releases off the line and comes out of his routes,open hips etc. if u played sports u know what I mean. its the game within the game that sometimes gives certain players that edge over other another and it has to do with the psychological part of it,just as much as the physical part aswell. but then again when you're a bad mfer,they can know and still can't stop it. #imposeyourwill!
+e. williams a cover 6 might stop Julio but you are going to have trouble with white if you line him up on the opposite side of the formation and also opens up the longball
+e. williams Cover 6 stops a lot of receivers. It's Cover 2 to the target and Cover 4 away. It's essentially bracket coverage while staying in zone concepts. CB underneath, S over the top, and LB playing Hook/Curl inside. Deion says "It's 2 Man", but it's not. 2 Man is two high safeties playing deep 1/2 with Man coverage underneath. Cover 6 is designed to play 3 on 1 or 2.5 to 1 to a dominant receiver.
A Train isn't athletic it's just pure power and plows through and runs you over! JIM BROWN was a BEAST! Opponents said they were scared to death to try and tackle him. There will never be another JIM BROWN!!!!
Undoubtedly. You never see this kind of humility from young stars in the league. Especially from receivers. We all know what kind of pre-madonnas they can be. Its nice to see a kid who just wants to play the game.
Wow....crazy how respectful julio is. I bet if you asked T.O. His rookie year who the best wr on the 49ers was, hed say himself. I didnt know attitudes like this still existed. I'm so used to babies like odell and dez crying over anything anybody says about them
It would have been funny if Deion was just like, I didn’t need to tackle because people either didn’t throw my way, or when they did, I was the one making the catch.
I’m a Texan fan but it’s been a privilege to see Julio dominate the league at this age and point in his career he’s hall of famer for sure ... it’s funny cause in this video Julio is still #2 behind Roddy White and Deion Sanders even says that Julio’s football knowledge is equivalent to that of a hall of famer which he is most definitely will be once he retires
***** not dez, aj green is the next t.o. minus all the shenanigans. hes lanky, fast, good hands and plays for the bengals which doesnt mean anything but just my opinion
This is fantasticly hysterical! Julio Jones showing how he's going to juke his defender, and then Deion shoots back like "sorry, sucker, but I done seen that play thousands of times before. You best come up with something else."
Hall of Famers weren't Hall of Famers until years after they retired... so it's pretty obvious he's not at that level...doesn't mean he's not a great player.
roxas the rogue According to fantasy football. Antonio brown earns more points than any other reciever. Meaning he must have superior stats. Sooo.. He's not exactly a bech warmer...
roxas the rogue There's no need for name calling. And besides. I can name plenty more receivers better than megatron. Julio jones. Jordy Nelson. Randall Cobb. Dez Bryant.
Deion was the greatest cover corner ever, and that's coming from a Lester Hayes/ Mike Haynes fan. He would hold Julio to 1 catch for 9yds in a meaningful game.
He was not. I don't care how many people repeat that line or how many times, it just ain't true. Deion was the most overrated cornerback ever; hands down. Even during his prime, if I had to pick one corner to cover the other teams' top receiver each week, I would've taken either Rod Woodson, Eric Allen, Terry McDaniel, Albert Lewis, or maybe even Troy Vincent or Gill Byrd, ahead of Deion Sanders. All of them were great 1 on 1 shutdown guys, except they weren't afraid to put their shoulders down & make a tackle too. Especially guys like Woodson & Allen; they sought out opportunities to make a hit.
Vernon McClain I don't blame him for not wanting to tackle, did you see what happened to Rod Woodson when he went for Barry Sanders? If you have Deion's speed and jumping ability, you avoid the ground game as much as possible.
That 2013-2014 Falcons Receiving corps is wanna the GREATEST the league has ever seen!! Roddy, Julio, Tony G., and Harry Douglas! Maaaaaaaan pick ya poison bruh!! #RISEUP
You people is slow deion has one of the fastest time ever clocked in the columbine 40 yard dash. So to say it wasn't no one in his time that ran as fast as Calvin . I say who care cuz Calvin never ran a 4.1 I. The 40 so stop it with this speed talk deion, Darrel green, and Galloway are the fastest people to ever touch the NFL ..
Christopher Bell I dont know man...Deion may have tossed around by Julio but whatever he lossed in physicality he would have made up for with his speed and jumping ability. EASILY. He could definitely cover him on an out route or post. Across the middle...maybe not.
Current Top 5: 1. Antonio Brown 2. Julio Jones 3. Deandre Hopkins 4. Odell Beckham, Jr. 5. Dez Bryant A fit Jordy Nelson might be in there, but these are the 5 WR I'd pick first for my team based on current form.
Lmao aj green is rapidly way better than Hopkins and obj and fez Bryant haven't even got on aj greens level yet aj greens played 5 years straight and had over 1000 yds receiver every season aj green should be #2 and the first few seasons dalton overthrew every pass and underthrew passes where aj green would of walked into the inzone but he would of had like 1800 yds
+David Merritt i understand that you live in Alaska. This past season does not contain all the deep WR reception. Just watch Julio and Dez make the rest look like a lil bitch. Current doe #joshgordon
joshua pollard Deion is a freak that comes around once every 20 or thirty years. If he had played BBall full time he would have gone down as one of the best lead off hitters, well below Rickey Henderson of course.
DAmn damn damn i was trying to learn about malcolm x being a well spoken for young black man. But i saw the ad on the side for prime time vs julio jones...so i had to leave and check it out....how could i resist..i couldnt even wait till the end of the speech i was watchin smh
+Courtnee Clark-Evans jerry rice and irvin were route runners though. They were beast at running mid range routes weren't deep threats like randy moss. Irvin especially was a king at slant routes. When it comes to deep threat guys like moss you know where they're going so in a way it's easier to cover them.... in theory... in reality no one can cover moss cause he's so fast haha but Covering Rice and Irvin is pretty fucking hard to do because they were so good at running routes and they knew how to get to the spot they wanted to get and how to get away from the corner. If Deion could cover Irvin's slant route I'm 200 percent sure he could cover julio jones in a slant route despite all those fancy releases he did in this video. Irvin was the slant route king bottomline

Joshua Fuller classy until he does something you don’t like!

When Primetime was in the game he automatically took 1/3 of the field away. QB's didn't avoid him for a game, they avoided him for years.
Like revis
Great stuff! Deion is the best ever. The young stars can learn a lot from him. Julio is a class act and a damn good receiver too.
"You can't lean on me wit dat 229" 😂 PRIMETIME

it amazes me its been 7+ years this guys been in the nfl feels just like yesterday i was watching every saturday for bama lmao
Julio is being humble. He's top 5 in the NFL right now.
Met Julio couple times in Atlanta. Very humble guy.
Deion Sanders, Entertainment Extraordinaire.. this dude can make anything exciting.
Primetime, On Time, Every Time..
One of the greatest matchups in History 🤑
Julio jones is #1 now.

MakeufamousNDZ nope. that title belongs to Bo Jackson
Lebron or Bo jackson or AI actually are the best athletes.... You can through in Zion Williamson and Derrick Rose and Tyreke Hill while you're at it
Thank you for popping up in my recommended.
One of the most humblest, hard working guy in the entire league
PRIMETIME THE G.O.A.T!!! Great interview Julioooo!!! Lets Go Falcons
Julio is a team guy. Couldn't be more happy to have him represent the Falcons
Great attitude. I like Julio even more now.
Undoubtedly. You never see this kind of humility from young stars in the league. Especially from receivers. We all know what kind of pre-madonnas they can be. Its nice to see a kid who just wants to play the game.
Michael Irvin was a physical beast and yes Deon did do a good job when the Cowboys played the 49ers but Irvin still handed it to Deon as well.
Yea, you are right, that's why they are in the hall of fame...
Humble still to the day
Wow....crazy how respectful julio is. I bet if you asked T.O. His rookie year who the best wr on the 49ers was, hed say himself. I didnt know attitudes like this still existed. I'm so used to babies like odell and dez crying over anything anybody says about them
Tyler Farina
Tyler Farina Odell humble tho
Jeremiah Barker True Just Like Amari Cooper
Jeremiah Barker true
aye take it easy on T.O he was confident and was good enough to flaunt it he's expressive he backed it up and played hard af no problem with that
This is why julio is by far my favorite player of all time and why I'm a falcons fan for life
You know you’re good when you impress someone like Dion Sanders....
Deion such a good interviewer even with all that extra shit he adds. Love it
Why u always respect Julio he got so much games but is under appreciated cause he's not a diva receiver and he doesn't ever have a good defense
I swear I come back to this randomly about once a year and i thank the RUclips algorithm every time
that's 229 u can't lean on me with that 229 😂😂
Julio seems like a good dude. Doesn't seem to have an ego. And god knows he earned it too. One heck of a receiver
Damn Roddy White fell off HARD!
he,s made enough 💰 let the young player have it.
mike jones
yup! thats what happened. pretty sad because roddy wasnt ready to retire. but hes a falcon for life so he just hung it up.
Sam Johnson had a great run
#8 he didn’t fall off at age 33 he almost had 1k receiving yards with 7 tds
He handled those questions perfectly. When you build up others and make it about others and not yourself it comes back around ten fold.
my pops would be proud, he's been saying get skinny in football terms for years lol
every coach says that lol
He always been a dope guy 🙌🙌
I'd love to see Dion in his prime cover AB!
humble and talented..hard not to like
I always want Julio on my team
Favorite player, goes about it the right way.
I'm like Deion I can shut you down all over the dam feild.

Dion you have matured well I appreciate you
Julio Jones, A.J. Green, Dez Bryant, Josh Gordon, and Alshon Jeffery will dominate the position for the next 5 years to come
What about Cecil Shorts? Not sure I agree with Dez aka young T.O.
***** not dez, aj green is the next t.o. minus all the shenanigans. hes lanky, fast, good hands and plays for the bengals which doesnt mean anything but just my opinion
Uhhhhhh I think you forgot about megatron
Sam Black No actually i pretty much assumed his status goes without mention lol
Your list is missing Demaryius Thomas IMHO. Best stiff arm of any elite receiver.
Prime Never Stops Talkin'
lol we all know the falcons arent complaining about the ball because those boys are getting the BIG CHECKS after the game. everyone gotta max deal
an thats all its about at the end of the day 💰.
This is fantasticly hysterical! Julio Jones showing how he's going to juke his defender, and then Deion shoots back like "sorry, sucker, but I done seen that play thousands of times before. You best come up with something else."
lol you can tell they both from the south by how they talk
Julio Jones has that old school mentality which I definitely respect and this coming from a patriots fan
Prime Time would lock him down. He has locked down Hall Of Fame Wide outs, and last time I checked Julio isn't at that level.
Yet
Simon Li stop it. you better compare his stats with some mediocre players
you cant even deny the potential is there for Julio Jones to become great
Hall of Famers weren't Hall of Famers until years after they retired... so it's pretty obvious he's not at that level...doesn't mean he's not a great player.
Last time i checked he averages more yards per game than any receiver in NFL history. He couldn't really be doing much better right now.
Impressed with Julio.
2020 anybody
2021, actually!
Deion - "Every Batman need a..." Julio - "Roddy" Thus was the future set into motion.

but Covering Rice and Irvin is pretty fucking hard to do because they were so good at running routes and they knew how to get to the spot they wanted to get and how to get away from the corner. If Deion could cover Irvin's slant route I'm 200 percent sure he could cover julio jones in a slant route despite all those fancy releases he did in this video. Irvin was the slant route king bottomline
