I don't go by the averages but you said more catches, yards, and touchdowns so I went by the stats. I thought Nicks was a better receiver before they had accumalated any stats so I don't need them to support me but even if it is a small sample size, it's what we have so far and they make a pretty good support case for any Nicks fans.

I don't think it's fair to use yards per touch when you've got a guy that returns kickoffs. Not many top receivers get the chance to up their averages on kickoff returns and fewer running backs do. Ted Ginn just got 201 yards on two returns today. Really helped his yards per touch average.
