His interview is crazy wild. He seems like he's really stupid. Purposefully throwing the coin toss because you're from Charlotte is next-level asshattery, and then to laugh it off and not even comprehend what you're being asked by reporters is just...I'm kind of in awe.

He's a cancer at this point. Have been sick of him for awhile.

He didnt throw the coin toss, he just forgot to say defer, and really its a dumb arbitrary rule anyway. If you pick defense, they know what you mean.

Its a nothing burger and mlf focusing and caring way too much about this is silly

He didn't forget. He litreally told the reporters "I want the defense on the field" and the refs THOUGHT he was saying defer.

Yeah thats what he meant. He probably didnt specifically know that you had to say "defer" to have your offense come out 2nd half (dumb rule)

JA isnt botching on purpose here. Would make no sense

...and yet at every opportunity to say he wasn't botching, he didn't. In fact, at teh start of the interview he basically says he did...lol

He must've been playing too good. Part of Joe Barry's defense is always finding yourself playing in the wrong coverage, leaving receivers open by 5 to 10 yards and having no idea what the play is from the get go.

 

While the rest of the post is correct, the bolded part is not.  He has not been playing well, and he has not been playing often.

Trade him for a 4th we’ll take him. Guys been eating turd for the last 3 years wasting his prime... My mans wants to compete. 

Him wanting to compete would be a welcome sight since his big contract. 

Wonder how many games his personal medical team (he) made the decision not to suit up this year. 

He's been a whiny baby lately whose play  when he has decided to play hasn't been good enough to warrant his ego.

Which really makes this hard to take sides with.  We all want Barry gone.  We all probably didn't want him in the first place.  The defense has been mostly bad during his tenure, and a lot of it seems to be scheme related.  And it doesn't get better despite continuous investments being made.  

All that said, Jaire has been underachieving or sandbagging.  He is an odd dude, so inferring things from his interviews may not be the greatest barometer, but they certainly aren't encouraging.  The tone of the interviews also lend to the speculation that he is milking an injury.  He was fighting his injury for the first 8 weeks of the season, earns a game ball against the Rams, then sits out 6 games.  It just doesn't sit right.

He probably would’ve known that if his coach would’ve made him captain and made that abundantly clear to him.
 

He gets paid way too much money to be going rogue on his team, and to not know the rules of the game.

Lots of folks talking about how he almost screwed up the verbiage of the coin flip decision.

But that wasn't the real reason he was suspended for a game.

The real reason he was suspended is that he was not elected a captain.  He wasn't even supposed to be out there.  He went out there on his own accord.

That's why he was suspended.  Not because he couldn't say the word "defer".
