What Julio Jones did this season was nothing short of spectacular. He made life brutal for opposing cornerbacks on a weekly basis, and his 136 catches for 1,871 and eight touchdowns was literally better than what one entire team's group of wide receivers was able to do as a whole.

Via Nick Wagoner of ESPN:

That's just amazing to think about. To top it off, Jones also now ranks No. 2 on the list of most receiving yards in a single season behind Calvin Johnson, as he passed Jerry Rice in Week 17.
