KEY INJURIES:
Dolphins:
- Questionable: Safety Jimmy Wilson (Hip)
- Probable: Tight End Charles Clay (Ribs), Punter Brandon Fields (Knees), Fullback Jorvorskie Lane (Knee)
49ers:
- Doubtful: Wide Receiver Mario Manninghame (Shoulder)
- Probable: Running back Frank Gore (Wrist), Linebacker Aldon Smith (Shoulder), Linebacker Patrick WIllis (Shoulder)
WHAT TO WATCH:
1. Jonathan Martin vs. Aldon Smith - The Dolphins' second round draft pick makes his first start at left tackle this week, after playing right tackle all season. Replacing four time Pro Bowl tackle Jake Long is no easy task, and doing it for the first time against the league's sack leader, Smith, will make life rough for Martin today. He has to play up to his draft position if Ryan Tannehill is not going to get killed today.
2. Dolphins Containment - The Miami run defense, typically the strong point of the defense, will be tested today. They will face Frank Gore, who is having a great season, but it's not Gore that should be the concern. Miami will have to maintain containment of quarterback Colin Kaepernick and force him to become a pocket passer. Kaepernick actually has less NFL experience than Miami rookie Tannehill, so if the Dolphins can keep him uncomfortable, they could force him into some mistakes. That all starts with keeping him contained.
