Found this interesting a learned a thing or two reading the captions with the pictures in the article. I'm not an "old school" football buff by any stretch, but it seems like a good list to me. I think Carter and Moss were the best statistical pair out of them all, but as the article states they never had much postseason success. As a Jaguars fan, its nice to see Smith and McCardell getting noticed on there.

Agree with the list? Anybody left out? Have your own list?

before they're careers are over, Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald might make that list

Boldin and Fitz could make that list if they stay together. I know at the beginning of the season Boldin wanted out.

IF Boldi nand Fitz stay together they def go on that list possibly #1 someday, but I thin kBoldin is out of ARI this year or next, I wouldn't be surprised to Boldin in an Eagles uniform next season

To be number 1 I think they would have to win a Super Bowl or two together. At least by the standards of SI. Which I don't think is a bad estimator of being a successful duo. They definitely should have the stats.
