GREEN BAY Bobby McCain Jersey , Wis. 鈥?One team is starting a backup at quarterback but still above .500. The other boasts one of the NFL's best quarterbacks, yet has a losing record.It's a topsy-turvy matchup when the Miami Dolphins visit the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.Packers CoveragePackers post-Super Bowl 2019 mock draft roundupGreen Bay Packers 2019 impending free agents primerAaron Rodgers' offseason to feature golf, not knee surgeryPhotos of the Week: 1/27/19 – 2/2/19Top Tweets: Wisconsin athletes survive 2019 polar vortexPackers bring back Getsy as Rodgers' QBs coachStaTuesday: The coldest games in Wisconsin historyPackers name Ravens' Hendrickson director of football operationsGrading Brian Gutekunst's moves in first year as Packers GMPackers bring in Nathaniel Hackett to take over as offensive coordinatorBrock Osweiler will make a fifth straight start at quarterback for the Dolphins with聽Ryan Tannehill nursing a shoulder injury聽. Two-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers seems to be getting healthier after hurting his left knee in the Packers' season opener against the Chicago Bears.Advantage Packers on offense, at least on paper.Yet for whatever reasons, what should be a prolific unit聽isn't clicking consistently聽for the Packers (3-4-1), especially in the fourth quarters of their last two losses."Yeah, it's definitely frustrating, especially when you've got the talent we do," receiver Davante Adams said. "We just need a little bit of flow and consistency, and I think that's what's going to get this offense moving in the right direction."It's little consolation that the losses have come against two of the league's best teams,聽the Rams and Patriots聽. Miscues on special teams, offense and defense have caught up to the Packers to contribute to the stinging defeats.Green Bay may need a "run the table" type of streak to get into the postseason. That phrase uttered by Rodgers turned into a catchword in 2016 when the Packers won eight straight games to go from 4-6 to the NFC title game."We're focused on winning No. 4. That's all we're talking about right now," coach Mike McCarthy said. "We improved as a football team the last two weeks, but you have to play your best football coming down the stretch, and that's clearly been evident the last two weeks."The Dolphins (5-4) relied on a resilient defense to聽beat the struggling New York Jets聽13-6. Miami had four interceptions and four sacks while holding the Jets to 2 of 15 on third and fourth downs.It's a nice cushion with Osweiler making another start. The Dolphins are 2-2 with Osweiler behind center, averaging 22 points a game."Any time you play a quarterback that's as special as Aaron is, you want to limit the amount of possessions that he's able to have," Osweiler said. "We know offensively this week it's very important for us to sustain drives Jesse Davis Jersey , get first downs and try to be in control of that clock."Other notes and things to watch:RUN THE DRAKE?Kenyan Drake had only three carries for the Dolphins last week, while starter Frank Gore carried 20 times."We don't want to be that far apart," coach Adam Gase said. "There were a few opportunities where we were trying to do certain things with Kenyan that didn't work out the way we wanted to where we were trying to get him the ball."Drake is averaging 4.8 yards per carry, but he has had six or fewer in five of Miami's nine games. For the season he has 73 carries to 104 for the 35-year-old Gore.6View Gallery Gallery:Former GM Thompson bound for Packers Hall of FameROOKIE RECEIVERA groin injury to Geronimo Allison means more opportunities for Marquez Valdes-Scantling. The fifth-round draft pick out of South Florida has shown potential to be a stretch-the-field threat with his speed and 6-foot-4 frame. Valdes-Scantling is averaging a team-best 21.1 yards per catch. He could be a beneficiary of more targets if the Dolphins decide to double Adams, the Packers' top wideout.SAFETY SHUFFLEReshad Jones聽will be back in the lineup聽for the Dolphins after the two-time Pro Bowl safety took himself out of last week's win over the Jets. Gase said that communication problems between defensive coordinator Matt Burke and players need to be addressed. Still, the defense last week was better after three straight poor games.7View Gallery Gallery:Upon Further Review: Packers at PatriotsSAFETY SHUFFLE, PART 2The Packers have done a midseason shuffle at safety. The moves began with the trade of Ha Ha Clinton-Dix to Washington last week.Kentrell Brice was limited at midweek with a knee injury, while Jermaine Whitehead was released this week. Veteran cornerback Tramon Williams was moved to safety against the Rams, but could be needed back at cornerback against Miami because of Kevin King‘s hamstring injury. Green Bay picked up safety Ibraheim Campbell off waivers from the New York Jets this week, while second-year player Josh Jones figures to see more snaps after being slowed by injury earlier this year.TURNOVER TIMEThe four picks of Jets rookie Sam Darnold last week gave Miami a league-high 15 interceptions. Now the Dolphins face Rodgers, who has thrown one pick this season."They've made a lot of plays on the ball. They do a nice disguise package," Rodgers said.

I can’t explain it.I played football all my life and after getting injured in college and not being able to play anymore, scouting became a way for me to still be a part of the game - from there my love for scouting and the draft grew.My goal for doing scouting reviews and reports this season is for us to get to know this upcoming draft class and to obviously, hopefully, entertain you.I’ll be giving my opinion on who I think is standing out and who I believe the Dolphins should have on their radar.I remember watching a ton of tape on Minkah Fitzpatrick last year - thinking there’s no way he falls to the Dolphins and some how we ended up getting him.I remember doing a lot of film study on Gesicki and Baker, it’s fun to see guys go from college to my favorite NFL team.So, chances are we will be talking about future Dolphins players here.This week we will begin with...Jeffery Simmons, DT, Mississippi St. (Jr)Simmons has been fantastic this season so far.He’s incredibly stout, strong, able to push the pocket, keeps his eyes on the ball and is surprisingly athletic for being such a big guy.From what I’ve seen, his tape screams first round pick.The biggest negative thing I think will hurt him is a tape of him hitting a woman back in 2016 when he was a freshman.Now, I am in no way saying it’s justified - but apparently the woman had said something negative about his recently deceased nephews.Still, obviously he assaulted a woman and this will hurt his draft stock - especially when it was all captured on film.The important thing with Simmons though (and to his credit) is he’s remained out of trouble since then and from the research I’ve done - he’s praised for being a leader and a responsible teammate. Brett Rojo-USA TODAY SportsByron Murphy, CB, Washington (Jr)Murphy wasn’t on my radar this summer - mainly because it’s a hard task to cover the entire country by myself and good players fall through the cracks.He’s certainly on my radar now; Murphy has been phenomenal this season.I love his burst, acceleration, and change of direction speed.He’s got great hips and flies to the ball.He’s also a violent hitter that loves to help out in the ground game.Murphy could be a high draft pick. Jennifer Buchanan-USA TODAY SportsTroy Dye Jordan Phillips Jersey , LB, Oregon (Jr)Dye is an undersized 3-down linebacker with great instincts and toughness.He’s a tackling machine and an asset in defending the pass.He’s a fantastic athlete with great quickness and change of direction speed.I do worry a bit about his size though, and he struggles at times to disengage from blockers; but Dye is a versatile LB that has impressed me this season. Photo by Gene Sweeney Jr/Getty Images Collin Johnson, WR, Texas (Jr)Johnson has also been very impressive this season.He’s a big WR that has been a terrific playmaker early in this college football season.He’s got pretty solid speed for a big guy and is great at winning the one on one jump balls.He’s also capable of making some pretty spectacular catches.I am starting to really be a fan of Johnson.Kirby Lee-USA TODAY SportsJJ Arcega-Whiteside, WR, Stanford (Jr)Sticking with the WRs, Arcega-Whiteside is another big bodied wideout that excels at catching the jump ball. He’s strong, knows how to use his body, pretty good route runner, has tremendous body control and has reliable hands.His speed is probably his biggest weakness, but Arcega-Whiteside is certainly a playmaker that will be on a lot of team’s radars. Photo by Ezra Shaw/Getty ImagesMax Scharping, OT, NIU (Sr)Scharping has some fans in the scouting community and I recently was able to watch his film for the first time.I came away very impressed.He’s a solid pass protector- I think he uses his hands well and has a great base.He’s got the ability to completely shut down defenders - it’s awesome to watch.Scharping also has a lot of experience under his belt too. Scharping is a legit NFL talent - I am looking forward to watching more of him. Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images
