Top 10 Receiving Corps

Today's episode is the ten best receiving corps in NFL history. This episode originally aired in 2008.

[@giants2k8]

No matter how many times I watch these old top 10 shows, I always end up rewatching them again every couple of years.

[@scrapytfootball4758]

[@justinlast2lastharder749]

I watched them all when they aired as an older teen, usually realize it about halfway through...then keep watching. I'm just surprised KZbin never takes them down.

[@instynct02]

1995 Detroit Lions: Herman Moore - 126 receptions - 1686 YDs Brett Perriman - 108 receptions - 1488 YDs. Set the record for most receptions by a duo, while Barry Sanders gets almost 1900 all purpose yards and you have freaking Scott Mitchell throwing it to you.

[@benmaloy9757]

[@ericjackson7632]

Missing the longevity though. But that was impressive with Mitchell as QB.

Number one, never was real number one.

[@rileyrobertson7067]

Don't the numbers shows that Mitchell had a *legitimately* great year in 95? Not just a fluke-y sort of "mediocre-to-average in real life, but efficient enough to be favored by some metrics" kind of deal but a legitimately strong year? I understand he was figured out/trash fairly shortly there after, but he always seems to be a little unfairly maligned even during his (admittedly short lived) success

[@Sephiroth766]

It's still amazing the numbers Marino put up in 1984. 5,084 Yards, 48 TD's. Those would be elite numbers today. He did that in 1984 when 3,500 and 25 TD's were MVP caliber numbers. And looking at those highlight, that receiving core and Marino would do well today.

[@JL-ho1tc]

in todays weak no defense era of football, Marino would damn near throw for 10,000 yards in a season..

During that span in the 80s did they EVER have a HalfBack that was anything other than Average? I was young but I don't think I could name you a single RB they had during that ERA.

[@tempest20000]

@Harry Engel I always blame Dom Capers for the defensive issues. Lack of talent isn’t it. By the 12 and 13, they had Sam Shields (Pro Bowler) Tramon Williams (Pro Bowler) Charles Woodson (Future Hofer, DPOY, and multiple time All Pro) Micah Hyde (Pro Bowler and All Pro) and Casey Hayward (Pro Bowler. And yet the secondary was the constant issue. There was so much talent and yet they had issues. It had to be the defensive scheme. They needed to fire Capers after both of those Kaepernick losses in 12 and 13.

Gloves are not more effective then stickum tf u talking about lmfaoooooooo u saw Lester Hayes? He didn’t drop shit with that stuff foh never seen a drop with stickum on

[@blacksuburban2410]

But it still nullifies his legacy and career because the stick’um was responsible for Rice’s route running, separation, yards after catch, football IQ (film study), breaking tackles, longevity, and consistency. Without it, he wouldn’t have been able to do any of those things! LoL. Don’t worry, B-Mag: Nobody takes these people seriously. Your point quickly and concisely put that madness to rest 100%.

Nat Moore was a solid consistent WR for the Dolphins in the late 70s and early 80s. He played with Bob Greise , David Woodley and Don Strock through the years. By the time Dan Marino and Duper and Clayton came in he was the solid veteran who brought some leadership to the team and still put up decent numbers

No mention that joe gibbs was the offensive coordinator of the air coryell offense in 79 and 80 before going on to coach the posse in Washington.

[@cooperwolfe5478]

Yeah that’s a great point. If you think about it, there have been 5 trios of teammates that have each recorded at least 1,000 receiving yards in a season, and the first 2 were the 1980 Chargers which like you said Gibbs was the offensive coordinator of, and the 89 Redskins which Gibbs was the head coach of.

[@mattbailey7049]

Gibbs best coach ever in my opinion. Coming from an 80’s and 90’s Redskins fan of course! But yeah, and he won all 3 SB’s with three different QB’s! Oddly enough also, one season was strike shortened and another saw replacement players for a short strike as well. But the ‘91 team had none of that

[@gluserty]

I think the 1980's/90's 49ers and 1999-2001 Rams had the largest number of overall threats in the passing game--49ers: Jerry Rice, John Taylor, Brent Jones, Roger Craig, & Tom Rathman. Rams: Isaac Bruce, Torry Holt, Marshall Faulk, Az-Zahir Hakim, and Ricky Proehl. That's a lot of guys on the field to try to stop. The "Air Coryell" Chargers were deep in receiving as well and I think are a good choice at #1, constantly bringing in new pieces throughout the 1980's (Eric Sievers, Pete Holohan, Lionel James, James Brooks for awhile...) which went along with the core of Charlie Joiner, Wes Chandler (before him John Jefferson), and Kellen Winslow. All these receiving corps on this list are strong though.

No one will ever top what they did in the second quarter of the Super Bowl in 1988. They had over 300 yards of offense in that one quarter, most of that done through the air to Sanders and Clark. Then you toss in Hall Of Famer Art Monk and that’s a hell of a receiving crew. Although, Miami’s trio under Marino were the scariest set of receivers I can remember.

[@JL-ho1tc]

but this isn't about just a trio of receivers.. it's about the entire receiving corps. and the best corps BY FAR top to bottom is the 80's 49ers. Two WR's including the best to Ever play the game, a RB, a FB, and a TE. And each of them were the very best at their position at that time. That is easily the best receiving CORPS of all time.

Great choice for #1. Remember, this is the same team that had Lance Alworth and Gary Garrison in the late 60s. Air Coryell also had great depth at tight end. They drafted a TE named Sievers who made the all-rookie team and they had another guy named Holohan who probably had the best hands of the three.

I think you make a lot of great points. However in my opinion, and I’m not at all trying to be disrespectful, the best receiving core is the Washington Redskins of the late 80’s and early 90’s with Art Monk, Gary Clark, and Ricky Sanders. They not only were the first trio of wide receivers to each have 1,000 yards in a season, but unlike the 98 Vikings or the Colts of the 2000’s the Posse won multiple championships together.

If this list were be done today... Chiefs receiving corps of Hill, Hardman, and Kelce would be near the top.. you could make a argument of Tom Bradys Bucs receiving corps for SB55 Evans, Brown, Gronkowski, Co. You could also do Burrows WRs from this season as well.

[@CaptainCowboy476]

They got this list right #1 was the best air game I have ever seen

[@davidwormell6609]

Chargers are worthy winners because when Jefferson left, they lost not a step with Chandler.

[@bobvylan7215]

The run and shoot June Jones Falcons had the only team in history with a 4,000 yard passer, a 1,000 yard rusher, and 3 WRs with 1;000 receiving yards each. Jeff George QB Craig Hayward RB Mathis, Emanuel, Metcalf at receiver.

[@MrJLov13]

So let me get this straight, you got two guys for the 70's Raiders who are already IN the HOF, and a third who will someday get there....yeah that corps is WAY TOO LOW!!!!

[@s.l.nicholson4240]

Agreed.

[@dwightlove3704]

Y2JProblem Yes Branch show have gotten the call for Canton in '01 along with Hayes,Swann

[@martinwakefield8138]

Air Coreal gave us Joe Gibbs, who gave us the Posse, just saying

[@MarshalLucky1]

He's also responsible for the Greatest Show On Turf: they ran Coryell's offense and employed several of his old coaches.

[@TrueNorthRaider]

I'm not even a Cowboys fan, but Irvin/Harper/Novacek needs to be on the list.

[@kofiamponsah2232]

It is a travesty that Jerry Smith is not in the pro football hall of fame he held the record for most career touchdowns for tight end for years. Same goes for Cliff Branch if stallworth and swan are I n the branch should get in with bilenkoff and casper

[@georgemcfly3482]

We all know why he's not in the HOF

[@dwightlove3704]

Funny how stick em has been made illegal but not these modern sticky gloves....same thing

[@ArtietheArchon]

The Posse probably should have been higher...first trio to each get 1000 yards in a season and two super bowls playing together on a run-first team with multiple different quarterbacks

[@cooperwolfe5478]

As a Cowboys fan I believe that they should be number one. If you look at the 5 trio of teammates in NFL history that each had 1,000 receiving yards in a season, 3 had hall of fame QBs (the 1980 Chargers with Dan Fouts, the 2004 Colts with Peyton Manning, and the 2008 Cardinals with Kurt Warner). Then when you look at the 95 Falcons who also did it, Jeff George is by no means a hall of famer but you could make the argument that talent wise he was better than Doug Williams and Mark Rypien who were the 2 starting QB’s for the Redskins when Monk, Clark, and Sanders each had 1,000 yards in 1989.

Do the top 10 qb to receiver duo

[@Office_De_Receiver_Complaints]

How can you not mention Reed, Lofton or Thomas and the K Gun? Run 6 plays for 83 yds 1:02 out the gate in 1989 and never looked back. Took them to 4 Super Bowls.

[@gaineyjohnson6628]

The Bills curse... Sorry man that was a great team.

[@thebigbear4696]

Isaac, Torry, Ernie, Az and Marshall should be on there before watching

[@sactownsteelers6748]

Baddest trio ive ever seen JJ Jefferson Joiner winslow. Spectacular offense

[@stephenspears4189]

I am a big of the posse. Monk Clark and sanders. How do you stop a trio of recievers? You couldn't double team one player without leaving one or the other wide open to burn you on the field.

[@cooperwolfe5478]

I definitely agree. As a Cowboys fan I have to say that the Posse is the best trio of wide receivers. I think the difference between them and every other trio in this too 10 was that the Posse won multiple championships together, unlike other groups that either won just one title or in some cases no titles.

[@aug-pahunters51]

This needs an update for the 2022 Eagles. BROWN, WATKINS, GODDERT MODE, ET AL

[@redgurl567]

MARK CLAYTON is AND should be a HALL OF FAMER. His #s were hurt playing with guys like Duper, Moore, and many others. Held a Rx record that lasted 20+ yrs and was undersized but survived making a living over the Middle, when careers ended weekly doing that!!!! If Swann is HOF, Mark Clayton deserves his Bust!!!!!

[@w.allencaddell6421]

Remember, and I hate the Steelers but you have to recognize greatness, Lynn Swann and John Stallworth. And they have 4 Championships.

Nate Moore a heck of a college football player he was in the running Heisman trophy hadn’t he got hurt he was in the running with Archie Griffin.

[@JosephCantu-qq1yr]

Good trivia question Who was the first Duo of wide receivers to go for over a thousand yards in the same season? Hint two teams accomplished in the same year so you're looking for four wide receivers two on each team 1979 Patriots Stanley Morgan and Harold Jackson Chargers Charlie Joyner and John Jefferson Just one year coincidentally after the mel blunt rule was issued

[@rickleo2159]

I have a very good redskins fan as a best friend... so I've been aware of this long ago.. and I agree.. a a quasi redskins fan for my friend... good for him 👏 👍

[@dcbandnerd]

Jerry Smith's omittion from the Hall of Fame alone deligitimizes the whole place - he was one of the first modern TEs and put up incredible numbers. It's only bigotry that's keeping him out.

[@martinishot]

Anybody who wants to tell us that the late 90s early 2000 Vikings should be number 1 has to explain why they always fell short in the postseason. It's not just some kicker missing the field goal. they did not step up in the big games. In the 2000 NFC championship game Randy Moss quit trying after just one quarter.

[@debbiehenson1096]

Raiders #1. Casper , Biletnikoff, Branch. 50's Rams #2.

[@ThundermanSze]

The Patriots with Hernandez and Gronk are worthy of mention. Short lived but potent.

[@aaronjackson9385]

With Welker as well. That was a lethal corps!! SB 46 still hurts, though.

Hernandez is a pos and shouldn't be in any football discussions

Mike Evans, Antonio Brown, Chris Godwin, Gronk. Golly. Even though it was one year... Golly.
