FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. - Another Falcons practice without Julio Jones was followed by another vote of confidence from coach Mike Smith that the star wide receiver will make it back from his hip injury this week.Smith said Friday he expects Jones to play on Sunday against the Steelers, even after Jones missed his third straight practice.Smith said Jones has been running under the supervision of trainers.Safety William Moore (foot) worked on the side during the practice and also is listed as questionable.Im still confident those guys will be ready to go, Smith said.Jones had 11 catches for a team-record 259 yards with one touchdown before the fourth-quarter injury in the 43-37 loss to the Packers on Monday night. It was the second straight week he has set a personal high for yards receiving.Despite his optimism, Smith acknowledged Jones status will be a game-time decision.Atlantas other receivers look healthy.Roddy White, who missed practice last week with a sprained left ankle before playing through the injury against the Packers, has not been limited this week.Im good to go, White said Friday during the portion of practice open to reporters.Harry Douglas, who would move up as the No. 2 receiver if Jones is held out, does not appear to be hampered by a foot injury that limited his availability for practice on Wednesday and Thursday.White, Douglas and Devin Hester have been productive options for quarterback Matt Ryan, but White said the team needs its top receiver. Jones leads the NFL with 1,428 yards receiving, a career high.He has played lights-out, especially the last five or six weeks, hes been really turning it on, White said. Were going to need that from him the rest of the season. Hes a dynamic player. Hes very explosive, as you can see. Were going to need him down the stretch to get to where we need to be and thats the playoffs. Were going to need him to continue to play that way.The Falcons (5-8) lead the NFC South with a tiebreaker edge over the New Orleans Saints. Atlanta plays at New Orleans next week before closing its season against Carolina, which is only one-half game behind the co-leaders.The Falcons could win the division by beating the Saints and Panthers, even if they lose to the Steelers. Smith has said the importance of the two division games will not impact the decision on Jones status against Pittsburgh.It seems likely a final decision on Jones will not be made before he tests the hip in pregame warmups.When asked what he needs to see from Jones, Smith said hell rely on his medical staff to make the decision.I want the doctors to say that hes ready to go, Smith said. Its not going to be a decision Im going to make. Its not going to be a decision Julio is going to make. Theyre going to evaluate it and make that decision.Cornerback Robert Alford (wrist) was ruled out on Friday.

Get ready for two more weeks of the unfiltered Sherman with the Seattle Seahawks headed to the Super Bowl. "I hadnt gotten many opportunities all game and Im happy. Im happy about that," Sherman said. " Im sure if our team knew it was going to come down to a play like that they would be pretty confident going into it." Sherman stole the attention on Sunday, first by deflecting a pass intended for Crabtree in the corner of the end zone with less than a minute left, right into the arms of Seattle teammate Malcolm Smith to seal the Seahawks 23-17 win. But then came the antics and Shermans words that revealed a deep dislike for Crabtree and satisfaction in Seattle knocking off its division rivals to reach the Super Bowl. While Smith was celebrating the interception, Sherman exchanged words with Crabtree, got shoved in the face as a rebuttal then made a choking gesture toward the San Francisco bench that he said was intended for quarterback Colin Kaepernick. Asked about the incident afterward by Fox reporter Erin Andrews, Sherman lit up Twitter with a rant that began: "Im the best corner in the game. When you try me with a sorry receiver like Crabtree, thats the result you gonna get. Dont you ever talk about me!" Sherman didnt back down even after getting some time to collect his thoughts. He apologized to Andrews, then proceeded to call Crabtree "mediocre," making sure to annunciate each syllable of the word. "I was making sure everybody knew Crabtree was a mediocre receiver," Sherman said. "And when you try the best corner in the game with a mediocre receiver thats what happens." It was a fiery, emotional rant from Sherman, who celebrated his first conference title by racing around the field after Russell Wilson took the fiinal knee, then leaping into the first row of seats in the south end zone to celebrate with fans.dddddddddddd "I know how passionate he is about the game of football. He said to me before the game its going to come down to us making big plays. Weve got to do it. Somehow weve got to find a way to make big plays," said teammate Doug Baldwin. "(Sherman) has been doing it all season. He is arguably the best cornerback in the NFL. They were trying to stay away from him the whole game. Eventually they were going to have to go his way and eventually they did and they made a mistake." Sherman was rarely targeted by San Francisco, with most of the throws going toward Shermans teammate Byron Maxwell. But when Kaepernick had to make a throw in the final seconds, he decided to challenge the All-Pro. Sherman stayed with Crabtree, leaped and batted the ball into the air with his left hand. That allowed Smith to run underneath and make the interception that clinched the victory. It was San Franciscos third turnover in the fourth quarter. "I knew if I tipped it high enough someone would get there," Sherman said. Sherman then ran over to Crabtree and gave him a pat on the backside, then appeared to extend his arm for a handshake. Instead, Sherman got shoved in the face before picking up his personal foul as his celebration continued. "Sherman made a good play. Thats probably the only play he made all game," Crabtree said. "I aint getting into that, he knows what time it is. When were on the field, he aint doing nothin. Thats one play, you know what Im saying? ... Hes a TV guy, Im not a TV guy. I play ball." Sherman said his issues with Crabtree go back to something that happened during the off-season. He would not go into detail about what happened. "He said something personal face to face," Sherman said. "He knows what he said and he knows Im going to be tough on him the rest of his career."
