Rotoworld is reporting Sims-Walker missed practice this morning and will be a game time decision Sunday.

http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playernews.aspx?sport=NFL

Mike Sims-Walker (calf, knee) did not "appear" to be practicing Friday morning.

We'll have a full report later in the day, but it's time to get Sims-Walker out of fantasy lineups after his late-week setback. Now in danger of missing Sunday's game, he's heading toward full-blown game-time decision status.

Wow, if he is out this game just got a lot easier (on paper), I was really worried about his deap threat possibility.
 
If Sims Walker does not play it is gonna be a huge advantage. He is their main weapon on Offense besides Jones Drew. Rashed Mathis appears ready to return, though.

Where did you hear that? Everywhere I have looked says he still isn't ready to play and that he is still limited in practice. He wasn't even able to run 10 days ago because of his pulled hammy. I really doubt he is going to play this game.
 
Well their local beat writer is the one reporting the info. Regardless them losing Walker is like losing 35% of their offense. He has been a huge reason why they have been good this season.

If we were at 100% I would agree, but since we have to deal with injuries every other team does too. I don't care if we beat a bunch of mentally challenged midgets as long as we get to the playoffs.

Sweet. Does that mean we magically get back Jason Ferguson, Ronnie Brown, Will Allen, Jake Grove and Patrick Cobbs? And then the guys that are hurting like Joey Porter, Jason Taylor and Justin Smiley also magically return to health?

Awesome idea.

Why? Who cares? We're not 100%, not even close, but I doubt they wish Ronnie Brown or Ferguson or Will Allen or Cobbs or Grove was playing. No team is 100% in week 14.
 
if we can beat moss and welker with brady throwing, then i don't see how we can't beat sims walker with garrard was my point. calm down everyone, damn.
 
It's a minor miracle that after losing an MVP runner-up Quarterback, a Pro Bowl Runningback, a Kevin Faulk back, the #1 Cornerback (which necessitated the starting of two rookies) and a starting Nose Tackle...the Dolphins just keep rolling right on.

They've also dealt with the in-season loss (due to injury) of their starting ROLB, starting MLB, starting NT (before he went on IR), starting Center, starting Left Guard and starting Tight End.

I think this is why Sparano is in the mix for Coach of the Year...again.

You have a point there...
 
Anybody who has seen whatever footage they have put this year on the Jaguars, knows Sims Walker is always making plays. If he does not play we have an advantage.
 
Bess, i think, will give Mathis a hard time IF he plays.....NE was doubling Bess and it wasn't even working then.

If Sims-Walker plays we need to chuck him at the line so he has to use that calf muscle even more just to get off the line and into his route. We should make him prove that it's healed and that he can in fact play full speed (which it doesn't sound like he is clearly at full speed if he is a game time decision)
