Hmph. This is hard. Hilton's probably the safer play, however, as a Packer fan, I can probably provide better insight than most as far as Jennings goes. Here's my analysis. He's been being eased back into play after missing most of the season, however, with Jordy out and clinching the division on the line, I have a strong feeling Rodgers will be looking for Cobb and Jennings early and often. While Cobb will undoubtedly probably reel in more receptions, I could see a 80-100 yard game with a strong possibility of a TD on top of it from Jennings. I'd roll with him.
Last week no GB receivers had a good outing. Cobb is still being targeted more than anyone else, even with Jennings in and Nelson out. The Colts throw the ball a lot, and will likely throw even more with Ballard trying to muscle up the middle against a stout HOU run defense. Jennings is a better receiver and has a better Q, but hilton will get more targets. I go with Hilton this week.

I agree that Hilton "is the safer play" Jennings could be boom/bust this week. In the playoff semis, I go with Hilton this week though.

I'm going to also side with Hilton in this one. Rodgers still not giving me that warm and fuzzy feeling, and HOU is a bit more susceptible through the air. Good luck
