If the injury is any indication, I'm inclined to agree with APB.

Packers have suspended J-Alex for 1 game. Gonna miss the Queens game - with the season on the line.
All because J-Alex went out for the stupid coin toss.
Packers are soft and dumb. Front office definitely embracing the tank.

Sorry, but yours is the "entitled do what I want" attitude that annoys us old fogeys. Jaire was being a punk. Honestly I'm getting pretty sick of his prima donna attitude. Its barely tolerable when he is playing (well), when he is sitting and sucking it gets you suspended. He almost lost us that game by being a clown. He called the coin right and said "we want to be on defense". If the official didn't cut him slack and clarify, Panthers would have gotten the ball to start both halves. He is a punk and acting like a punk. Honestly, trade him in the offseason if we can score real capital for him.Originally Posted by Anti-Polar Bear
I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
Yep. Nagler got it right too.

I'm okay with it. He didn't belong out there. Besides, it's not like Valentine and Ballentine can play any worse than he did Sunday.

Valentine only played 5 snaps against Carolina. They will probably play better without Alexander. Seems to free lance too often.
Shadow is one of our old timers and brings widsom to the table. But one time he had three draft rules or something of that nature and one of them was to never draft a guy who shows up to the draft with a red suit and polka dot bow tie. At the time Jaire was an all pro corner and top cover guy in the league. Shadow knew. Shadow knew.

Agree with Nagler. Lots of young players in the locker room, sends a message.
Interesting that Gute did it and not MLF. Imagine if Gute had say over the coaching staff; Barry might have been gone last February.
Jaire's body language after the game when asked about it was interesting. Seemed like he knew he fucked up but was laughing it off. Wasn't a good look, and you have to think it makes him look untrustworthy. You can't have guys like that on the field; if you aren't where you're supposed to be the Baker Mayfields and Bryce Youngs of the league will torch you.
If he wanted to be captain he should have asked MLF before the game.
I bet you were happy the Packers took Mandarich over Neon Deion. Prime was the original “punk/Prima Donna” shutdown corner. Not saying J-Alex is a as great as Prime was, but J-Alex sure as fuck ain’t punk/donna wannabes like Ahmad Carrol and Damarious Randall either. J-Alex is damn good when he’s on.
Suspending your best corner over a stupid coin toss that has no consequences towards the game is stupid as fuck.
I'm not going to stop the wheel. I'm going to break the wheel.
If he had gone out and played the way he is supposed to play, they maybe overlooked the coin toss thing. I agree, Valentine has played very decent, a lot better than Jaire against the Panthers. Just the same, I still think Jaire has a lot of great football to play in his career. I'd hate to see that be with some other team.
What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

this had to happen
the guy put himself before the team and shit on his teamates that actually were the captains by decided he needed to be out there too and then made the call
not to mention he fucked it up
100% gotta send a message that this all was bullshit
alexanders ego has gotten way too big, and his play hasn't been backing it up the last couple of years. plus he just milked that injury for as long as he could
I think it was a combination of screwing around with the coin flip and then going out and giving up 5 receptions against the worst offense in football. Clearly his head wasn't where it needed to be.

He’s been ‘injured’ but wanted to perform before his hometown and family/friends.

when i first heard about this, i thought "wow, lefleur does have a set of balls"
then i found out that lefleur didn't make this decision, gutey had to do it
this ties right back into the barry discussion. matty might not have the stones to do what he needs to do. maybe his players know he's a pussy and thats why we have an obvious discipline problem on the field
MLF said it was a joint decision. I don't think it's a coincidence that all the drama is coming from the defensive side. I don't think the players have a problem with MLF. The problem is that they've tuned out Barry. That's what has to get fixed.

Yeah I think Barry lost Jaire last season. I suspect he's not the only one.
"joint decision" lol -- yeah, Gute and Murphy probably decided something needed to happen and MLF rolled over and showed his belly.
I think it had to be a joint decision. I doubt LaFleur has the power to unilterally suspend a player if he wanted to.

If it’s this bad - and I’m guessing it is - that’s cause to fire Joe 2 weeks ago. Probably too late now. Unless the Packers beat the Vikes 41 - 38 or 45 - 42 and the Rams and Seahawks lose. Then Matty Flower might figure it’s in the team’s best interest to can Joe Barely so the team can at least trot out a defense that’s not a clown show of incompetence and dunce-ishness.
Who knows? It’s getting crazier and crazier.

If anybody has been paying attention this was no surprise at all. On 12/9 in an interview he publicly stated he he'd have a hard time playing at anything less than 100%.
Then we watch buys like Musgrave play a bit with a severe injury, and we watch Wicks play through obvious pain and injury and gut it out.
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
I think Devondre's twitter outburst and Jaire's ongoing behavior suggest something is very wrong behind the scenes.
