What's the last NFL team to win a Super Bowl with a comparable Wide Receiver room? I would say 2018 Patriots that beat Mahomes in his 1st year and they won a SB where their offense only needed to score more than 3 points in the SuperBowl and took out a KC team with no defense or safeties in the AFC Championship.
And their WR room still better than ours because Edelman was a dependable route runner that Brady could trust being in the right place (like us their TE was their real #1 WR).

Gronk was a shell of himself that year.
If anything, the RB (White?) was their top receiver that year.
But wasn't that also the year that Brady made chicken salad out of some Chris Hogan chicken shit?
In the end, that was a very comparable set of pass catchers. I think ours actually has more upside to it than that one does with a very similar floor. But Brady was in complete control of his instrument at that time in his career. He just never got sped up.
