Sunday, October 27, 2024
Q: Simply discuss that final sequence defensively, them driving down, not with the ability to make a cease.
JU: Yeah, we discuss being at our greatest when our greatest is required, and that was not it. That is on teaching, to start with, after which second, we have to execute, and we didn’t execute in vital moments. We are saying that is not who we’re, but it surely’s who we’re till we show in any other case.
Q: Are you at a loss proper now, simply sort of what is going on on with this group?
JU: I am pissed. They’re pissed. I am harm. They’re harm. We aren’t executing in vital moments, particularly down the stretch proper there. We had alternatives to win this sport, ought to have received this sport, and we did not. So give credit score to the Patriots; they took benefit of a group that did not execute in addition to they will.
Q: You talked about the way you felt like this was the perfect week of follow you’ve got had in a very long time. Do you are feeling like that translated to the sector as we speak?
JU: There have been spots the place it might need, however simply general it wasn’t ok. We have all acquired to take a tough have a look at ourselves, beginning with me, and the method, follow, conferences, walk-through, all of it, and ensure all the pieces is correct and ensure all the pieces is being completed on the highest degree as a result of proper now, the product that we’re placing on the market on sport day isn’t the product that is conducive to successful and constructing a tradition that we’re attempting to ascertain right here.
Q: There was plenty of discuss Davante Adams talking to the fellows after the sport final week and put that tradition in the proper path. How a lot of a step again is it to lose on this trend to a group like this?
JU: Yeah, it hurts, and it is onerous. You get the method proper and also you get the vitality proper, and when it nonetheless does not produce the outcomes that you really want, it is simply not the suggestions that you simply wish to give your gamers, your group, your group. This was greater than vitality as a result of I believed the vitality was tremendous. That was not the place we fell quick. The place we fell quick was within the execution, particularly within the vital moments of this sport. So we have to get that proper. Till that will get proper, nothing else actually issues.
Q: What occurred on the delay on the two-point conversion? What led to it?
JU: We have got to be higher from an operations standpoint, simply general, and that is each single participant, each single coach. That is Aaron [Rodgers]. That is all of us.
Q: Within the first quarter you needed to burn three time-outs –
Q: Is that simply guys not realizing the place to line up?
JU: We have simply acquired to be higher collectively. Each single human being on the market has acquired to be higher. Aaron has acquired to be higher. Coaches acquired to be higher. All of us acquired to be higher.
Q: I do not imply this in a impolite approach, but it surely’s not a younger offense up there. There’s plenty of veteran gamers. How do errors like that occur when you might have such a veteran group, particularly on the offensive aspect of the ball?
JU: They should not occur, to start with, whether or not you are veteran, rookie. It does not matter. Inexperienced, skilled, does not matter. The operation of our offense, it shouldn’t do this. Does it occur each infrequently, each couple video games, possibly. However to occur as typically because it did tonight, it is not ok, and it is acquired to get mounted.
Q: Do you remorse sticking with Greg Zuerlein?
Q: Is there something you’d do in another way in the event you may rewind these previous few seconds of the sport?
JU: I am going to take a tough have a look at the tape and there is most likely some calls that I may have adjusted and possibly completed some various things, for certain, and there all the time is, but it surely’s my job to place them in the perfect place to achieve success, and I clearly did not do this.
Q: Greg Zuerlein clearly missed a variety of kicks. Are you dedicated to him long-term or is it one thing you are going to have a look at?
JU: Yeah, we have to take a tough have a look at all the pieces that we do, all the pieces. It is not simply on Greg, it is on all of us. We’ll do this this week.
Q: What was your message to the fellows in there?
JU: It is a second of darkness, and we perceive that the skin world goes to get actually loud proper now. However the one factor I do know in life is that when it will get darkish and it will get onerous, that you simply work and also you level the finger at your self and also you look inward and you determine what can I do higher from a person standpoint. If we do this collectively, which I imagine we are going to, that is your solely alternative to dig your self out of this. That is your solely alternative to enhance and repair a few of these wrongs. That is the place we’re lucky, that the character of this locker room, I feel they are going to show who they’re.
Q: You have not had plenty of guys which have been via popping out of darkness. The fellows have been via some robust seasons. How difficult is it for them to do it when they do not know what that appears like?
JU: Yeah, there’s part of it that is some blind religion with regards to that, and understanding that each one I can do is figure, and also you stack sufficient work up in a productive approach that it ends in the outcomes that we wish. On the similar time, we will must lean on a few of these veterans that we’ve on this locker room, some guys which have been via it and a few guys which have rebounded. It’ll take each single human being in there, coaches, gamers, assist workers, everyone, to get this factor circled.
Q: What did you consider the best way Haason Reddick performed and what occurred to C.J. Mosley?
JU: Truthfully, it is actually onerous for me to see precisely what Haason was doing. I am going to check out the tape and allow you to guys know. However he was dialed in. He was targeted. I felt his vitality and I felt all of that, so it will be fascinating to see the tape. C.J. in pregame, he had a neck, so he was unable to play sadly.
Q: Do you assume possibly – I do know you wish to maintain doing it, however do you are feeling like possibly attempting to be the pinnacle coach and likewise calling the protection, that your obligations are simply being stretched too skinny at this second?
JU: Like I stated, I am going to take a tough have a look at all the pieces, and if that is one of many issues that may assist us, then it will undoubtedly be on the desk.
