1. ADAM THIELEN & STEFON DIGGSMINNESOTA VIKINGS
After stellar 2018 seasons, Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs have cemented themselves as one of the most dynamic receiving duos in the NFL. The Vikings’ pass-catchers have clearly emerged as two of the league’s premier route runners and are among the best in contested catch situations.
Thielen was incredible in 2018, especially to start the year, with eight straight 100-yard games. The former undrafted Minnesota State product earned a career-high 89.5 overall grade in just his second season with 1,000-plus offensive snaps played. Among NFL receivers with 300-plus routes run in 2018, Thielen ranked seventh in receiving grade (89.5), 15th in yards per route run (2.10) and 13th in passer rating when targeted (115.4).
Diggs was equally as impressive. He picked up 1,000-plus receiving yards and an impressive 81.1 overall grade in 2018, adding to his remarkably consistent career thus far. He’s now earned 78.4 or higher overall grades in all four of his NFL seasons, and in 2018 specifically, Diggs logged just one drop and generated a 107.9 passer rating when targeted.

Be mindful Vikings fans...Lightning doesn't strike like this often with wr tandems.

I'd argue this is our best since Moss/Carter and White/Rashad.

Trying to figure out who you are going to argue with...
Bobby Wade/Ferguson maybe?

Glad to have them. Would rather have wins. Can't we have both?
