Fantasy Impact:

Nelson made two tough catches that helped the Packers continue drives at pivotal points in the game, but for the most part he was held in check by a Dallas defense that focused in on him and wasn't helped by the struggles of QB Aaron Rodgers in the first half. However, as we've seen throughout this year when teams try to take one of the Packers weapons out of the game someone else steps up. This week it was Davante Adams, who turned in one of his best performances (117 yards on seven receptions with a touchdown) of the year in the Packer's most important game of the year.
