Mike Wallace, Jeremy Maclin, and Breshad Perriman questionable for Week 8, Michael Campanaro doubtful, Terrance West ruled out

Baltimore's top three receivers are officially questionable for their Thursday night game against the Dolphins. Joining them with a 'Q' tag: S Eric Weddle, TE Ben Watson, LB Terrell Suggs, LB Patrick Onwausor, RG Matt Skura, and CB Jimmy Smith. TE Maxx Williams has been ruled out and WR Chris Matthews is doubtful. Perriman and Maclin were inactive Sunday and Wallace exited early with a concussion so Flacco peppered Allen with a team-high 11 targets. The Dolphins are allowing the 11th-most receptions to RBs this season (5.8 per game) and now rank 28th in receiving RB DVOA after Matt Forte and Bilal Powell combined for a 7/81/0 line in Week 7. Allen out-snapped Alex Collins 88 to 38 over the past two weeks without West and he should continue that trend against the pass-funnel Miami defense that ranked third in rush DVOA and 27th against the pass. At receiver, Chris Moore and Griff Whalen both played 58-of-65 snaps last Sunday. Moore was second on the team with eight looks and hauled in Flacco’s lone TD but he finished with just two receptions. He ended up leading the team in receiving yards despite only having 44 of them. Even if the top three receivers miss another game, it doesn’t seem like he’ll offer much upside. If Maclin is able to make his return, he'll have a nice matchup with Dolphins slot CB Bobby McCain, who's given up 16 receptions on 18 targets when lined up inside. It's not a particularly appealing game though as it features two inept offenses. Not surprisingly, Vegas has given it the lowest total on the board (37).
