One of my favorite things about this Green Bay Packers defense is they have the swagger of a champion. Sure, they’ve won absolutely nothing, but do not tell those guys. They will not hear it. There are few guys who are top leaders in the swag category, but no one may be higher than Jaire Alexander. The reason why he is captain swag is his ability to talk a big game and back it up game in and game out. Alexander was asked about this Packers defense after the game, and he replied in a very Jaire way talking about the Packers ‘being the best at everything.’

Does Jaire Alexander think the #Packers have the best defense in the NFL?

I LOVE hearing this kind of things from the Packers. For a long time, Packers didn’t have this kind of confidence, especially on defense. Alexander wants to bring the noise, game in and game out. He played his ass off on Sunday allowing only two catches from Emmanuel Sanders to the tune of 10 yards. He knows how to play with the best of them out there, and if he keeps playing the way, Packers are going to flourish with him. I expect some receiver sooner rather than later step up to Jaire to shut him up, but those aren’t available yet.
