Cowboys Vs. Packers Props Jordy Nelson A Strong Bet To Score

The price is steep, but we’re feeling aggressive in this spot and are siding with Nelson to find the end zone.

Not only does Nelson have perhaps the best quarterback in the game – Aaron Rodgers – throwing to him, but he’s a red zone and home run threat in the same package. If the Packers are able to move the ball successfully as they have for most of the season, Nelson will have multiple chances to score, from close and from distance.

Nelson had 13 total touchdowns this regular season and scored in 10 of 16 games.

Sporting News’ Fantasy Source staff has Nelson ranked as its No. 2 receiver for this week’s playoff games, and his affinity for the end zone certainly factors into his ranking.
