DeMarco Murray tosses touchdown pass to Delanie Walker (Video)
By John Buhler
DeMarco Murray is embarrassing the Green Bay Packers early on Sunday. He added a passing touchdown to his 75-yard touchdown run for the Tennessee Titans.
DeMarco Murray is having a bounce back year for the 2016 Tennessee Titans to say the very least. After floundering with the 2015 Philadelphia Eagles, Murray has found his stride that made him an All-Pro with the 2014 Dallas Cowboys.
Murray already had a 75-yard touchdown run on the Green Bay Packers early on Sunday afternoon. He decided it was time to further embarrass the visiting Packers by throwing a 10-yard touchdown pass to tight end Delanie Walker in the red zone.
It was a brilliant play design by Titans offensive coordinator Terry Robiskie. He had Titans quarterback toss the football back to Murray to force the Packers defense to bite on what was a certain run for the tailback.
Murray would immediately move to his right as a passer to find Walker wide open in the back of the end zone. The Packers secondary was completely befuddled on that play call by the Titans.
Tennessee is playing very hard this season for head coach Mike Mularkey. The Titans may get criticized for their coaching staff, but this group of Mularkey, Robiskie, and defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau have Tennessee fighting for a playoff spot in the AFC.

For Green Bay, it might be time to panic. The Packers have looked dreadful for extended stretches this season. This team needs more than just quarterback Aaron Rodgers to win football games. Green Bay needs to get over itself and start pursuing players in NFL free agency. Their collection of talent, or lack thereof, is not cutting it any more.
