I’ve Never Seen Anything Like Toney

I became a fan in 1982 and have seen some amazing receivers;
Eddie Brown
Michael Irvin
Brett Perriman
Brian Blades
Horace Copeland
Lamar Thomas
Kevin Williams
Santana Moss
Reggie Wayne
Roscoe Parrish
Andre Johnson
Leonard Hankerson
Phillip Dorsett
KJ Osborne

None of them is as good as Malachi Toney. Irvin, Moss/Wayne and Johnson were the best of that group, IMO, before Toney. Now the standard seems untouchable.

The best I’ve seen at any level, ever. No, that’s not hyperbole. He’s got Jerry Rice hands, zero bull****.

I think that’s perfectly put. It took really almost 2 seasons worth of games when considering the playoffs to be credited with a drop. And it took a big hit surrounded by 3 defenders for it to happen. Never seen anyone as sure handed, except for the name you mentioned.

Long way to go but what a luxury to know the ball won’t hit the ground when thrown to.

They gave him a drop on that?? He was crushed, borderline targeted. That’s not a drop.

*edit* and by “borderline” I mean would have been called on UM 💯

Was that really credited as a drop? He got smoked and the ball was dislodged. That’s a PBU?

I love Santana Moss. And during the Pitt game I kept asking myself if Toney is better than Santana. But the end of the game I had to say yes.

I’ve said it since early last season. Santana was a special talent, but he didn’t have Toney’s hands, especially early on. He had some BIG costly drops. Toney’s hands are unreal.
