Nice write-up from Rotorooter:
Jordy Nelson caught six passes for 115 yards and two touchdowns in Week 16, helping the Packers to a 35-21 Christmas drubbing of the Bears.
One week after struggling in the absence of Greg Jennings, Nelson more than atoned for his poor performance, hauling in a number of difficult sideline grabs before beating SS Major Wright like a drum on a 55-yard touchdown catch early in the third quarter. On his second score, Nelson simply out-muscled CB Zackary Bowman in the end zone on a two-yard quick slant. Now up to 1,101 yards and 12 touchdowns on only 59 catches, few players have been more (deadly) efficient than Nelson in 2011.
I was also listening to Mike & Mike this morning, with Chris Mortensen and Adam Schefter filling in. They gave Jordy major props, with Mort saying he was going to give him one of this All-Pro votes. Schefter was shaking his head while describing the ridiculously low contract that Jordy signed in mid-season, while also saying that when a team does that (signing a player to an extension during the season), it usually means they have figured they have a future star on their hands.
I hope Jordy can continue to shine and then in about 3 years, cash-in and get the big contract he deserves.
