[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 610375, member: 9033"] While I think the Packers corps is terrific, I have to say I think the Lions group is better. Too much of the quarterback play is getting mixed into the analysis. Does anyone really think that Calvin Johnson wouldn't have insane seasons if his QB was Rodgers? Nelson is one of the best receivers in the NFL but he's not Calvin Johnson. Golden Tate, in the Packers offense, could do what Cobb does (receiving, he did have 1,300 yards last season). People are down on Ebron (I never understand the push for first round TEs, rookie TEs NEVER make an impact) but he did have a better season than Rodgers with a worse QB. Adams will be good but he's a projection at this point. And please don't take the above as a knock against the Packers. It's not. It's an acknowledgement that the Lions have the best receiver in the game and another receiver who is also a legitimate number one guy, just like the Packers do. The gap between Nelson and Johnson is just a little larger than the gap between Tate and Cobb. Remember, Aaron Rodgers is making a large difference in receiving numbers. I would have zero issues with the Packers corp being tied for second with the Broncos and Colts (Colts have better TEs than Packers). Finally, am I crazy to think that the Patriots should be ranked in the top-5 solely based on Gronk? I mean the guy is uncoverable AND he makes a HUGE difference in the running game. Johnson might be the best receiver in the NFL but I think Gronk is probably the best non-QB offensive weapon in the NFL. [/QUOTE]
