There were a few spectacular performances from the Arizona Cardinals’ 16-13 victory over the Indianapolis Colts, but perhaps none were more critical to the team’s victory than J.J. Nelson’s. Finishing with 5 catches for 120 yards and a touchdown, Nelson was absolutely spectacular with his ability to stretch the field and catch the ball in traffic.
Coming off that great performance, a weird question suddenly dawned on me. Is Nelson the best wide receiver currently wearing an Arizona Cardinals uniform?
Before you call me crazy, stick with me. The running game didn’t get much traction with the offensive line mixing in new pieces due to injury and with David Johnson being out.
