During a segment of "Good Morning Football", NFL Network's Peter Schrager coins the last Thanksgiving matchup of the day between the Miami Dolphins and Green Bay Packers as a battle between "two brilliant minds".

The Green Bay Packers are set to host the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving Day, but the Green and Gold will be without a pair of starters. Star cornerback Jaire Alexander has been ruled out due to a knee injury that also sidelined him last week against the San Francisco 49ers.

The Green Bay Packers are having an excellent 2024 season so far. Green Bay is 8-3 heading into Week 13 and is firmly in the mix for the NFC playoff picture. The Packers are preparing for another huge game against the Dolphins on Thanksgiving.

The Miami Dolphins will be without Anthony Walker Jr., Kendall Fuller and Tyus Bowser on Thanksgiving when they visit Green Bay.

The coldest kickoff temperature for a Miami Dolphins’ victory started by quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is 48 degrees. The thermometer is liable to read only half that when the Dolphins take on the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night.
