Crabs and Cooper--I knew there was someone that wasn't coming to mind.. I'll concede that. And I'm saying 1-2 punch at WR. Not factoring in TE.
 
Edelman Cooks better than Diggs Thielen? Please.

I don't see why the TE wouldn't count? Kelce's putting up the same numbers that Thielen is
 
Like you don't hear Denver this week stating "New England's #2 and #3 WRs this week are Amendola and Dorsett, easy matchup for Talib and Roby!" because the behemoth of Rob Gronkowski still exists. Gronk and Kelce line up out wide as often as Diggs and Thielen do (since they play a lot of slot work as well) so I really don't see an argument to not include them for best receiving pair.
 
And its easy to say Edelman/Cooks > Thielen/Diggs, because Edelman is better than Thielen and Cooks is better than Diggs lol

False. Diggs is definitely better than Cooks. Edelman and Thielen are very, very close.

Hill/Kelce and Cooks/Gronkowski are better than Diggs/Thielen, and Edelman/Cooks is better when Jules isn't ded
 
Crabtree/Cooper is up there too. AB and JuJu are looking that way soon as well
Diggs and Thielen don’t have been doing this longer than part of one season and generally stay healthy.

Theielen is easily the most underrated player in the league. Bout to change after today.

It's Antonio Brown and Juju just because of how much better Antonio Brown is than both Thielen and Diggs

Yeah, AB is better, but it's not that big of a gap. Noticeable, not massive.

He is right now, because Martavis Bryant came down with a bad case of Little Bitch Syndrome.

Bruh what? The gap between 1-10 at the WR position in the NFL is not that drastic. I'd say Diggs is top 10 at this point.

First off, if any Viking WR is top 10 its Thielen not Diggs (neither are), and second off AB is in a class of his own along with Julio... 
 
Tier 1:
AB
Julio
 
Tier 2:
Mike Evans
Odell
Nuk Hopkins
AJ Green
 
Tier 3:
Michael Thomas
Jordy
Keenan Allen
Baldwin
Edelman
Fitz
 
Thielen is in Tier 4 with guys like Demaryius, Cooks, etc

You are ridiculous.

Also, if the league wants to see how every crew needs to be officiating games in the NFL today, look at Bill Vinovich's crew. They are phenomenal. They should officiate every Super Bowl for the foreseeable future, and other officiating crews should be forced to call games like they do.

Adam Thielen has at least 5 catches in every single game this season. Incredible, and he has a knack for making plays at the best of times.

Thielen has half the natural talent and yet he’s made Josh Norman his bitch all day

His argument isn't faulty, but I mean, we were talking about a specific positional group lol

Jordy arguably tier 2 with Rodgers at QB. Marvin Jones and Golden Tate > Vikings WRs
