Game Rewind Notebook: Kenny Stills set to go off?

WhoDat!656 · 07-06-2014, 04:31 PM

The quarterback and rookie developed an instant connection: Brees -- who calls Stills "Lance Moore 2.0" -- chalked up a passer rating of 139.3 on throws to Stills, 10-plus points higher than any other passer-receiver combination in 2013, per Pro Football Focus.

The wideout's 4.35 40 speed brought a dangerous element to the passing game. Serving as a deep target for Brees, Stills finished his rookie campaign leading all NFL receivers with 20 yards per catch. He also ranked 13th in the league with a 69.6 percent catch rate, a figure that looks more impressive with Pro Football Focus' Mike Clay pointing out that 15 of his 50 targets came at least 20 yards downfield.

I've been down on Stills but I have to admit he looks like a perfect #2 to Cooks, along with Jimmy Graham and Colston that's a good Crew there.

I have to admit that I too have changed my mind and give him more credit after watching the games again. I didn't give him credit for battling for the ball. He has excellent vision and tracks the ball well. He's both a scrapper and a speedster. My bad!

I'm out hunting for some crow right now and not having much luck......I might just have to settle for some over cooked chicken.

I watched the Patriots game from last year the other day and that grab he makes in the end zone with two guys on him was phenomenal

with a whole year to pick up the offense and Cooks to also spread the field this year looks like big things are in store for Kenny

another great late draft score

I think the game vs buffalo was where he made his mark

Our offense had struggled, we had missed an early FG and not scored a TD, our defense had already forced 2 turnovers and we had nothing to show for it

then stills bursts for a 60 yard TD on a double move, then later catches another 50 yard TD with the defender in perfect coverage

the guy is going to be awesome for us

Love me some Kenny Stills. Except I don't think he's just a #2 receiver, I think he's a future #1 if/when he gets the chance. Moore got the chance to be #1 twice and was up to the task, and Stills is a carbon copy of Moore except he's faster.

Much faster and a bit bigger than Lance Moore. Stills can be a game breaker.

I'm sorry but Lance Moore in my opinion is a slot receiver at best. He is pretty slow, doesn't break tackles or make a lot of people miss. He's great at getting u 9 on 3rd and 8. But a # 1 he is not. Sorry no sports to talk about right now, gotta argue about something. Now Kenny Stills could possibly have been a # 1 and is stress "possibly". But with Cooks out there he's a 2 at best. And I think it's possible Stills may not start every game. I could see Joe Morgan beating him out, if healthy. I know everyone will disagree with that but I stand by it.

Kenny Stills will be a beast and hopefully he will learn from Colston on how to handle himself....

I don't recall hearing about Stills being anything other than a pro on the field and off.
