Dolphins vs. Packers live updates: NFL scores, game stats, news, highlights, where to watch on Thanksgiving t

 

Two false start penalties and a personal foul on Jonnu Smith led to a 3rd-and-29 for the Dolphins, who simply ran the ball on that play before kicking it away. 

Dolphins have four penalties tonight, all on offense, three of them false starts. 

 

Love hits Jayden Reed for a short TD pass two plays after the turnover. Green Bay up 7-0 exactly three minutes into the game. Packers 1-1 in the red zone. 

 

Malik Washington fumbles the game’s first punt. It’s scooped up by Robert Rochell. Green Bay back in business on the Dolphins’ 9-yard-line. 

A play before that, Miami nearly got a turnover when Zach Sieler hit Love as he was releasing the ball, but it was ruled an incomplete pass.

Dolphins win toss, defer and the Packers will start the game with the ball. Keisean Nixon returns opening kickoff to Green Bay’s 46-yard-line. 

 

The Packers are 20th in the NFL on both offense and defense in red zone efficiency. If the Packers lose tonight’s game, it’ll likely at least in part be due to their inability to play better in this part of the field. 

 

Tyreek Hill played in Kansas City, so he’s obviously used to playing in cold weather. The perennial All-Pro is looking for a breakout game tonight as he has not gone over the 100-yard mark in receiving yards since Week 1. Injuries have hampered him all year. 

 

Miami is rocking their throwback jerseys for tonight’s game. These are the uniforms the Dolphins wore when they won back-to-back Super Bowls in 1972-73. The ’72 team went 17-0 and remains pro football’s only perfect team. 

Speaking of history, tonight is a matchup of two dynastic franchises. Miami played in three straight Super Bowls in the early 70s, becoming the first team to do so. The ’60s Packers won five titles that included the first two Super Bowls. 

 

Miami’s QB is 0-7 in games played in 45 or lower degree temperature. Tonight’s game is calling for freezing temperatures, which isn’t a surprise given it’s late November in Green Bay. 

 

Alexander will be replaced in the starting lineup by Eric Stokes, a former first-round pick who has already made six starts this season. He’s made 31 starts over his four-year career. 

  • CB Jaire Alexander
  • LB Edgerrin Cooper 
  • OL Jacob Monk 
  • WR Romeo Doubs 
 

With Fuller out, Cam Smith is slated to take his place in the starting lineup. Smith, a second-round pick in last year’s draft, has never started in a regular season game. He’s made 13 tackles in five games this season. Tyrel Dodson is expected to replace Walker at starting ILB. He’s a nine-year vet who made nine starts this year for the Seahawks.
