For awhile to start the season I was on the Stills train, but I've moved over to the Toon train.

Stills has not shown the ability to make the tough catches... and he has even shown that he is prone to dropping passes right in his hands like the one against Chicago on a big 2nd and 12.

Toon has already made a few tough catches... I just think that Stills is only able to make the clear cut wide open catches as of right now... he certainly can't get up there in traffic and come down with the ball. Which is what Brees generally asks of his receivers. Even tiny Lance Moore has the ability to fight for the ball.

I'm not saying I don't like Kenny Stills or that he shouldn't be starting. I'm just saying that at this point in the season... Toon has proven to be a little bit more reliable.

I guess Toon didn't drop that touchdown pass on MNF the other day?

I think they're both going to have nice careers. And I agree that Toon is ahead of Stills at this point.... I think the reason Stills is getting a little more playing time so far is due to the Moore injury.

If he doesn't drop that one ball this thread doesn't get posted. Fact

2 WRs, yea, but they are completely diff WRs. Toon is in the Colston moold, while Stills is a blend of Moore and Meachem/speed.

That's besides the point, I guarantee you if Joe Morgan doesn't go down for the year, Stills would be wearing a practice jersey right now.


Not to sure about that. Morgan only had 21 targets and 10 catches all of last season and Stills already has 16 targets and 7 catches this season. Stills is more than just a run a streak route guy.

Also, you know who has a higher drop percentage than Stills? Nick Toon. He is tied for first in the NFL in drop percentage haha.

In the preseason Stills showed he can make some really tough catches, but he just hasn't had as many opportunities to do so.

I don't think you thought what your thinking was not what the consensus thoughts of the board were. Collectively speaking on thinking.
