what have they actually accomplished together, thus far? I think Julio could be considered the 2nd-3rd best receiver in the league after this season is over, but as of now? nah.
shyt, as of right now, they ain't even seeing Rod Smith and Ed McCaffrey or Ocho and Housh , much less Duper/Clayton, Carter/Moss, Moss/Welker, Taylor/Rice, etc.

Man, this shyt is ridiculous. I wake up, and my boy Mal told me y'all was slandering Jordy Nelson. I come in here, and you got mufukkas really not trying to give him his due? I saw Heisenburr trying to enlighten a couple of y'all, to no avail.
The man just put up 1300 & 15 TD's, but he's not that good? Roddy and Julio last year? 16 TD's combined. He had 33 less yards than Roddy...on 32! less catches, and 85! less targets. He had the same exact number of targets as Julio did. So basically, he had infinitely less opportunities then Roddy, just as many as Julio, yet put up better numbers than both of them.
Re-read that last paragraph again, and explain to me how either of them are better than him. And Jennings is better than Jordy is. And Jordy put up big numbers when Jennings was hurt, so miss me with the "he only had those numbers because of Greg". Oh, and his biggest game of the year? Week 17...the only week in which Rodgers did not play (and neither did Jennings). There's only one reason he isn't mentioned among the best WR's in the game, and everyone and their mama knows what it is.
There was a thread about the best duo's in the NFL a little while back, and LastEmperor made an interesting post in that thread. He said that he'd put our duo up higher, except for the fact that they have Rodgers as their QB. Know how I responded? I said "that's funny, because ppl use the opposite argument when trying to discount Rodgers: that he's only good because of his WR's." It's obvious from some of the posts in here that ppl think Rodgers is God Almighty, and is the sole reason that Jordy put up the numbers he did. Fortunately, most knowledgeable ppl know better. It's not as easy as "Rodgers is our QB", just as it's not as easy as saying "but look who Rodgers is throwing to". The fact is, Rodgers is the best QB in the league, and Jennings and Nelson are 2 of the best WR's in the game. Mix 'em together, and fireworks happen.
Stop shytting on Jordy cause he's white, and stop discounting what he's doing. You like your receivers? Fine. But there's no way in hell I'd give up Jennings and Nelson for any other duo in the league.

I'm with you breh but that's just stupid, no one says that
Fo'real, I was actually about to ride for them, until I saw ever. I do think they're top 3 tandem in the league and better than Jordy and Jennings.

Maybe not now, after his MVP season, but it's definitely been said, as late as last year, during his MVP season.
Too bad the threads seem to have gone somewhere on SOHH, because there were a few different threads where the Brady Brigade liked to use Rodgers' "weapons" against him when ppl started to say that Rodgers was the best QB in the league. That was the go-to reason why Rodgers couldn't possibly be better than Brady, because of all the weapons he has around him

Even in then, the argument was that Rodgers had better weapons than Brady, not that he was a product of those weapons.

So Julio Jones is just gonna instantly break out? There are factors that may prevent this. Injuries and regression. Not all players live up to their hype. If Matt Ryan goes down who is gonna throw the ball to the so called greatest duo ever?
