The Falcons worked on their vertical passing game on Friday night against the Dolphins.

Matt Ryan attempted three bombs in the direction of wide receiver Julio Jones, who came down with one for a 49-yard gain. Jones got his hands on the other two, but he was unable to haul them in.

Atlanta is looking to feature a deep passing attack under new coordinator Dirk Koetter. They did not regularly throw the ball down the field under former coordinator Mike Mularkey.

"I think that's one of the things when you are throwing it down the field, you just got to keep taking those chances," Ryan said. "You've got to have the timing just right. It's one of the those things where you are 1 out of 3 on balls way down the field, that's not a bad day."
