I would expect everyone on the injury report will be available except TE Bubba Franks and DT Johnny Jolly. It read like DE Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila was certain to play a couple of days ago, but his status is listed as questionable. He really will be needed to apply pressure on QB Tony Romo. CB Charles Woodson is probably the biggest name on the list, but he's played through a lot of minor injuries over the last two seasons and I'd expect him to play. Woodson's absence might not be felt in matchups, CB Al Harris is likely to cover WR Terrell Owens all game while a safety will cover TE Jason Witten, but Woodson's skill at grabbing interceptions, and sometimes returning them for a TD, is really needed if the Packers want to upset Dallas on Thursday. One wild card is the unexpected return of CB Will Blackmon. If he's ready to play would he play as the nickel back ahead of CB Jarrett Bush as he did early in the year? Would he return kicks instead of CB Tramon Williams?
