I think the strategy would have changed a little also if they had 2 TO's instead of 1. It's no one's fault that they had use the TO due to Nelson's injury, but I think it truly is what killed the drive. They had to keep going for big chunks of yardage along the sideline instead of trying to hit a big play over the middle, call TO, then be in a better position to make another play over the middle to get in FG range.

For one, Nelson should have caught the ball.

Did Nelson play on third down snap? I wasn't sure if he sat out a play or they used the timeout to allow him to come back into the game on the next play. If Nelson wasn't there, they were running a 2 minute drill with one guy (Adams) that had ever played any number of meaningful snaps in Green Bay prior to yesterday.
