It entirely depends on your team setup, really.

Kog has the highest endgame damage output of any AD carry, full stop. Between his permanent 25% AS steroid and his W doing 6% max health per hit, he will produce more sustained damage. Note that I'm not talking about burst here, just DPS; plenty of carries (e.g. Vayne) have better burst than Kog.

Kog also has the highest autoattack range of any carry while his W is active.

However, Kog is very vulnerable during teamfights, as unlike other carries he has no escape mechanism at all; if someone gets onto him, he'll die very quickly. He's also vulnerable in lane phase, as he lacks the burst to get kills without strong support.

Ezreal has strong burst during lane phase; he also has a fairly high damaging long range poke (his Q will outdamage Kog's R on single targets, assuming they have equal AD and Ez built at least a sheen). He has mobility, which Kog lacks, and as well as his own potent 50% AS steroid he is capable of providing a 40% AS buff/debuff.

Finally, Ez's global ult can be used to kill-secure occasionally, although the ult damage of AD Ez is mediocre at best.

Conclusion / TL;DR - Kog will be better for you if you find your teammates are able to screen for you easily and/or you have strong CC to take advantage of his insane damage output.

Ezreal will be better for you if you're not 100% on your positioning, or if you need a bursty champion to work with your lane partner.
