Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones only has winning on his mind entering the final four games of the 2018 regular season. It has been a disappointing year for Jones and company, with the Falcons currently sitting at the bottom of the NFC South with a 4-8 record.

It's also been a somewhat frustrating season for Jones when it comes to finding the end zone, as the star wideout has compiled just three touchdowns after going without a score in the team's first seven games.

But with the Falcons out of the playoff race, some have wondered whether Atlanta may just be playing for pride at this point.

However, Jones clearly doesn't see it that way, via Falcons reporter Kelsey Conway.

Julio Jones with the line of the day: We aren’t going to play for pride. We’re playing to whoop someone’s a**

Well, that seems simple enough, doesn't it?

Injuries have definitely played a significant role in the Falcons' struggles, as they've been decimated by injury issues on both sides of the ball.

That's led to a lot of head-scratching moments for the franchise after advancing to the NFC Wild Card round a season ago, and fans are hoping that this is just one of those forgettable seasons that won't carry over into something more.

The Falcons will return to the field on Sunday when they head to Green Bay to take on the Packers at Lambeau Field.

Green Bay has been dealing with its own issues, as it recently fired head coach Mike McCarthy following the Week 13 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.
