Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones is coming off a moster performance against the New York Giants and has another solid matchup against the Detroit Lions.
Julio Jones in line for a big fantasy performance against Lions
Julio Jones is on fire. The Lions’ secondary is not.

Jones has been inconsistent but very productive season in 2012. He passed 1,000 yards last week and has nine touchdowns this season. Injuries have slowed down his production this season, but he’s always a threat for a breakout game.
The Lions secondary has been average on the season, but has become particularly beatable over the last five weeks. Jones, meanwhile, has scored in three of his last four games, so this matchup could be the perfect storm for his fantasy owners. The timing could not be better, either, with most fantasy championships decided this weekend.
