As the NFL season reaches its halfway mark, fans have been treated to several elite quarterback-wide receiver tandems this year, including QB Jared Goff and star wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown continuing to put up big numbers in Detroit.
But who’s the NFL’s best QB-WR duo? “First Things First” co-host Greg Jennings — who formed a formidable duo himself along with Aaron Rodgers during their time together with the Green Bay Packers — does not believe the answer lies in the NFC North.
In fact, on Tuesday’s episode of the show, Jennings explained that while he was impressed by those star players and their numbers on the field together, their teams’ having multiple offensive “weapons” disqualifies them from making his list of the Top 5 QB/WRs in the league.

5. Lamar Jackson and Zay Flowers, Baltimore Ravens

2024 Stats through Week 9:

Jennings’ thoughts: “When I look at this duo, they just get overlooked because they’re the quiet ones. They’re the new kids on the block.
