NFL's Elite Position Groups Shine in 2025 Season Preview
29 Aug
Summary
- Chiefs boast Patrick Mahomes and Gardner Minshew at QB
- Lions' RB duo of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery tops the league
- Bengals' WR tandem of Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins is unstoppable

With the 2025 NFL regular season just around the corner, several teams have emerged as having the league's most formidable position groups. Leading the way are the Kansas City Chiefs, who boast a quarterback room that is the envy of the league.
Headlined by Patrick Mahomes, a five-time Super Bowl MVP at just 29 years old, the Chiefs also have a more-than-capable backup in Gardner Minshew II. Minshew, a veteran with 59 games and 46 starts of experience, would be a starting-caliber QB on many other teams.
The Detroit Lions, meanwhile, have assembled a running back duo that is unmatched across the NFL. Second-year pro Jahmyr Gibbs, a Pro Bowler in 2024, and the bruising David Montgomery combined for over 3,000 total yards last season, the most of any RB tandem. This "Sonic and Knuckles" pairing gives the Lions a dynamic and versatile ground attack.

Not to be outdone, the Cincinnati Bengals' passing game is spearheaded by the dynamic receiving duo of Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Chase, the reigning triple crown winner, and the equally dominant Higgins give quarterback Joe Burrow an embarrassment of riches to work with through the air.
