Top five performers for Packers in Week 10 win vs. Dolphins
By Jesse Fry
2. Pass rush
The Packers recorded six sacks on the game and overall had their best showing since the Bills game in Week 4.
With a banged-up Dolphins offensive line missing three starters, the Packers should have been able to take advantage. This time they did.
What made the feat even more outstanding was the six sacks came from six different players.
Kenny Clark and Kyler Fackrell added to their team lead with a sack a piece, giving both players five on the season.
Also chipping in were Raven Greene and Montravius Adams, who recorded the first sacks of their careers.
Although he did not record a sack, Clay Matthews was as active as anyone in the Dolphins backfield. From the first play of the game, Matthews was constantly in Brock Osweiler’s face applying pressure and effecting his throws.
When it was all said and done, Fackrell, Clark, Greene, Adams, Dean Lowry and Reggie Gilbert all finished with sacks. At least one sack from every level of the Packers defense. Some of the sacks came from hustle while others were created by scheme.
The Packers will look to make it back-to-back weeks with a high number of sacks. The always troubled Seahawks offensive line is up next.
