Jones torches Bucs for 253 yards, 2 TDs in Falcons' win

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones finally had a game this season worthy of the lofty standards he's set for himself.

And he managed to further cement himself in the NFL's history books in the process.

Jones finished with 253 receiving yards, 15 rushing yards, and two touchdowns, including a 51-yard TD reception from fellow wideout Mohamed Sanu.

The two-time All-Pro entered the Week 12 home game against the NFC South-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers with 54 receptions on 86 targets for 786 yards, and most notably, just one touchdown, in his first season working with Falcons offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian.

Jones' previous best game of the season had been a six-catch, 118-yard performance against the Carolina Panthers in Week 9. His lone touchdown of the year came in Week 7, against the New England Patriots.
