Maybe. But Aaron Rodgers really needs Nelson to keep the Cowboys’ offense off the field.
Dez Bryant has to have a big game for the Cowboys to win. If Green Bay has to focus on him, that opens up their running game, and Dallas should control possession. And that keeps Rodgers off the field.
“But Aaron Rodgers really needs Nelson to keep the Cowboys’ offense off the field.”
Last week the Packers and Rodgers beat the best defense in the NFC with 4 touchdown passes and nearly 400yrds in the air. Rodgers was sacked only once and threw no interceptions.
38-13.
Dallas has a better offense than the Giants. Their running game will be a factor especially.
But they can’t score 38 points against the Packers, and the Packers are most certainly capable of scoring 38 against them. Or 45.

I agree. No matter which way you slice it, Nelson on the bench hurts.
