Packers-Dolphins Week 6 Dope Sheet

On Sunday at Washington, the Packers were without six players who started on opening day at Philadelphia on Sept. 12. Four of those were on the defensive side of the ball, with S Morgan Burnett (knee/IR), LB Nick Barnett (wrist), nickel LB Brandon Chillar (shoulder), and nickel CB Sam Shields (calf) sidelined against the Redskins. On offense, RB Ryan Grant (ankle/IR) and T Mark Tauscher (shoulder) were out due to injury.
As if that wasn’t enough, two more starters went down on the opening four plays from scrimmage at Washington. TE Jermichael Finley sustained a knee injury and DE Ryan Pickett suffered a sprained ankle that sidelined both for the remainder of the afternoon.
LB Clay Matthews, who leads the NFL in sacks, left the game in the third quarter with a hamstring injury, and QB Aaron Rodgers sustained a concussion on Green Bay’s final play on offense in overtime. TE Donald Lee (chest) and S Derrick Martin (knee) also left the game with injuries that could sideline them for some time.
The status of most of the injured starters for this Sunday’s game against Miami is unclear, although Finley and Barnett will not play against the Dolphins with both scheduled to undergo surgery this week.

The walking wounded up in GB, though supposedly they want to get Greg Jennings back involved in the offense which makes sense with the two Te's being out.

For the Dolphins imo this would be a great game to bust out Lil' Beast as a Te on the Packers, 6'5 235, with their secondary depleted I'd love to use that natural mismatch to our advantage.

I couldn't get thru the ''dope sheet''

to be fair, this is what they said about the game against the jets too, but you have a point with Finley and Lee out, they almost HAVE to throw at jennings now.

That is what I had in mind as well, their Te corps is hurting so they will use Jennings in place of Finley and Lee.

I also think the Pack is weak up the middle now, which is good news for Ground Sparano, but knowing Capers, he will run blitz early and often, I also expect a above average amount of Zone Blitzes from Capers, that will really test Henne's ability to read the field.
