Torched by MVS One Day, New Team The Next Day
One of the best plays of Sunday’s Packers game was the opening play of the second half. Green Bay took a shot downfield with Marquez Valdes-Scantling on a playaction post play that we have seen run over and over again with Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson. Packers ran it to near perfection even if the ball was a touch underthrown. Packers running that play again honestly made more people including myself think this could be a special year. MVS is a legit home-run hitter for this team. \ Gareon Conley was the cornerback on that play. He’s a first-round draft pick but from a prior regime. Conley got traded to the Houston Texans on Monday for a third-round pick.

This is a very old school move by Gruden and company to get rid of Conley after one bad game. This isn’t the only time in the Packers game where he was burned. Gruden wanted to send a message to his team that they will not get burned like that for the rest of the season. Good thing, they’re playing Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans next week, right? MVS leads the league in passes caught 40 yards or more this season.
