Realistically, I’ve been here four years now. I have to do a better job. The outcome of what is going on in this program is not satisfactory for the standards that I have."

"We have a lot of penalties that have gone against us, which is my responsibility, and, again, turnovers. I think everyone … knows that’s a reflection of the structure and discipline in the program. I have done a very poor job over four years of making our team continue to get better in those two fields."

"I have to do a better job in the red zone, and in the tight red zone. Its two weeks in a row that we’ve struggled there. And I have to do a better job of preparing my team when we come out on the field in the second half – defensively. We gave up an 87-yard drive with the score 7-3, and they (Minnesota) went up 14-3."

"There’s really not a lot of excuses out there. It’s a lot of pressure, when you feel you’re letting players and coaches and people around you down..You don’t feel sorry for yourself. At the end of the day – and I’m not being a martyr – it’s truly on me."
