Does Charles Woodson lock down Nicks on Sunday?

Woodson did a great job and stuffing Welker last week. Does Nicks get the same treatment or do you roll with a guy like Larry Fitzgerald instead?

I'd probably start Larry Fitzgerald. But it has nothing to do with Charles Woodson. Woodson doesn't even matchup on the opposing teams top receiver. He often covers the slot receiver in 3 WR sets, which is why he was on Welker a lot. I think Fitz and Nicks are both top 10 options this week, but I have Fitz a spot or two ahead of Nicks. The better question might be who your other WR's are?

This.

 

Woodson is no longer a lockdown corner.

It's a tough matchup for Nicks either way, Packers are 3rd against the pass, and who knows what the weather will be like in GB. I'm trying to decide between Nicks and Marshall.

Nicks or Bowe for me. Split.

Nobody locks down Nicks.

Not sure who will be on Nicks...probably Tramon Williams.

As someone said, Woodson is more the slot corner and trying to take away shorter routes and the TE and play in run support.

Williams and Shields are the outside corners.

nicks should get the looks , it will all depend on how eli handles the blitz as to whether they end up in nicks or the defense hands.

Woodson has been far from a lock down corner this year. He's definitely still living off his reputation from last year. Like previously stated, he doesn't match up with the top wideout from each team, and his cover skills have regressed.

 

 

With that being said, I'm not a huge fan of Eli Manning, but he'll know he has to get the ball to Nicks often.

 

Expect a line of: 8 catches 105 yards and a TD

 

It's a must win game, Nicks will definitely show up.
