Charles Woodson got his own thread so I think Nick deserves one. He has had huge plays in every game this year. It took a while, but he is finally becoming the impact player the Packers envisioned when they drafted him. Get Bigby back, and this secondary has a chance to be special.
By the way, didn't the poster Justin Harrell used to be Nick Collins? If so, he might want to switch back. :D

Yes, he was once Greg Jennings, then Nick Collins, and then he bucked the second round trend by becoming Justin Harrell.
I thought he might pickup Jordy Nelson this year but I think he wants Harrell to accomplish something first.

Sick Pick Nick is what I will start calling him if he keeps this up.
What is the status on Collins contract? Can he opt out of next season?

He looks great this year. I really hope it's clicking. He looks very instinctive and sure handed which are my two beefs with him prior to this year.
He's a sure fire all-pro if he keeps this up.

Playing at a pro bowl level.
This could be the final year of the contract thus the elevated play. NC needs to be resigned.

I agree with most of this but that drop today looked like the old nick collins.
gotta admit i cursed him on that play and verbally sent him back to 06 but that pick today was a very instinctive and athletic play. i did apologize to him however, after int heh
I'd also like to think he's laying a lot more lumber than he has in the past. Harder and more consistent ... he used to wiff ala sharper a lot more before ... he looks a lot bigger; that camera shot after the pick with his helmet off ... lol he has a fat ol head! [[/i]

Let me say - I cannot complain ever for dropped ints. Mainly because they were in position to make it... and if they were excellent at catching they wouldn't be a defensive back. I mean, woodson is pretty good but even he drops some easy ones.
Collins has been a bright spot for us... getting big plays and being around the ball a lot.
ANyone notice that Rouse seemed absent this game? Something tells me there is a reason Bigby and Collins are better options then Rouse.
