In Green Bay, defense is a democracy. The scheme may change week to week, but it has always been a collaborative effort between the players and coaches dating back to a season-opening loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
But even in a democracy, a decision must be reached even if everyone doesn’t agree. If Jaire Alexander had it his way, he would have been one-on-one with Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson on every play.
“If it was my way, you know what I would be doing,” Alexander said after Jefferson exploded with nine catches for 184 yards and two touchdowns.
