Q. Urban, can you wrap your head or grasp 20 straight losses for this franchise? How desperate is this team at this point?
URBAN MEYER: Desperate for a win, desperate for the way they go to work each day, each week. Desperate for a win. But we can’t worry about the past, worry about the future, and a trip to London and try to get a win. Some guys are playing their tails off. But, yeah, we’re desperate for a win.
Q. Could you just talk about the decision to on 4th and goal, to not have James Robinson in the game and to possibly, obviously not try to sneak it with Trevor since it only had about four or five inches to go.
URBAN MEYER: I just met with Bev (OC Darrell Bevell) and we talked about it. I don’t micromanage who’s in the game. I should have — James is running really hard, but so is Carlos. I’ve got to go find out if something was dinged up with James on that situation. And the quarterback sneak, he’s not quite comfortable with that yet. We’ve been practicing that. I know that might sound silly, but when you’ve never done it, it’s something that we need to continue to make that, so you can make that call in that critical situation.
Q. 8.2 yards a carry is what James Robinson was averaging today. Kind of shocking to see him not get the touch on the goal lines. But the tight ends for the Tennessee Titans were roaming free, big bombs. Did the game plan involve stopping Derrick Henry or keeping A.J. Brown in check? URBAN MEYER: Tyson (Campbell) was unable to go. He practiced in limited capacity throughout the week. So we matched up Shaq with Brown, and then the tight ends, some mental errors, missed assignment. Any time you play the Titans, you’re going to be focused on stopping Derrick Henry. It’s going to be game over if you don’t stop him. For the most part, we did a decent job, but there were plays we gave up. Then the third downs, we just couldn’t get them off the field.
Q. Coach, you’ve seen consistent improvement from the team each week, but the wins still aren’t coming. At what point do you have to go back to the drawing board and start really evaluating everything from top to bottom?
URBAN MEYER: We’re there. It’s my job to do that every day. I see a group of warriors. I see a group of players that I love to death. I see a group of players that are spilling it on the field, and we’re not getting it. We’re not closing it out. From the Cardinals on, Cardinals, Bengals, and this one. We go down to score. I’m waiting to see Trevor get the ball in his hand with a chance to go win the game. We thought we were going to have that at Cincinnati, and then that penalty, and we couldn’t get off the field. Then a similar situation today. If we score on that, we score there, our defense really stiffened up near the end of the game and played high energy, got pressure on the quarterback, stuffed the run, and we didn’t slam it in from the one-inch line, two-inch line. Trevor Lawrence is a warrior. We love that guy. We all do. That guy is competitive. He’s going to be great for Jacksonville.
Q. Urban, do you have an idea of the extent of Brandon’s injury? Emotionally, how devastating is it to see him go down like that?
URBAN MEYER: He’s like a son. He’s everything this team stands for. It looks like it’s not as bad as they first thought. It looks like ankle and MCL, and we’ll know more, and I’ll update you this week.
Q. Can you speak about why there have been so many communication problems in coverage with the secondary? Looked like you’re playing man, and then looked like you’re in zone, and it looked like you’re in that at the same time.
URBAN MEYER: Kind of asked that same thing on the sideline, and we’ve got to get that corrected. I see the same thing you see. I see a defense that sometimes plays outstanding, elite football, like the first half against the Bengals and the latter part of the game of the one we just played. But then we’re putting pressure on the quarterback and the guy is wide open. That was a miscommunication. It was man coverage, and the guy didn’t cover his man. It’s that simple.
Q. Kind of building off of that, Urban, Myles obviously exited the game later, but did he have the green dot at the start of the game? Part two, what did you see from your linebacking corps over the course of this game?
URBAN MEYER: We have been evaluating that because Myles plays three positions – base, nickel, dime, and it’s something we’ve been working on. He played his best football. We just did some research, he plays best when he doesn’t have to make the call. So we gave it to Damien and also Rayshawn. So you were right when you saw that.
Q. Was there then some confusion, do you think, because you had two guys out there making the calls, two different guys, I should say?
URBAN MEYER: I don’t think so. That’s a question I’m going to ask, and you’re certainly welcome to ask it as well.
Q. Two young guys, Shaq Quarterman, Chapelle Russell, linebackers. When they stepped in, Myles went down, Dakota Allen went down, that was when the two — you forced them to punt twice. What did you see from those two young guys?
URBAN MEYER: I love those guys. I see it on special teams all the time. I’m very involved with special teams. I’m with them constantly. I’ll watch the film. I just saw what you saw. I wasn’t knee deep in the calls and all that. We were getting ready to go on offense. But those are great players and great people.
Q. Trevor Lawrence seems to be getting every game. You had a 58-yard pass today. Can you speak to his progress?
URBAN MEYER: He’s awesome. We all are, the 904, we all are waiting for that. Our teammates are waiting. Just to give him the ball with a chance to go win the game because I think he’ll win it. His practice habits, his toughness, his leadership, it’s getting better each week, like you said.
Q. Urban, how emotionally draining was this week for you considering what happened? And did you see any of that impact any of the players at all today?
URBAN MEYER: I didn’t. You could ask them. I apologized earlier in the week, and players had a really excellent week of practice and put ourselves really in position to win a game at one point.
Q. You had said that from week 1 to week 4 you saw improvement in this team. Did they take a step back today?
URBAN MEYER: I don’t think so. I’m going to look, and obviously I’ll let you know. You were out there, like I was, watching the team lay it all on the line. You look up there, and we punched that thing in. The original score, they said it was in, and you’re within striking distance to go win the game.

JAGUARS QB TREVOR LAWRENCE

Sunday, Oct. 10, 2021
Q. Trevor, can you talk about that first and goal from the 5[-yard line] situation? Where you thought you were in and then not able to get in and how that sort of just impacted all the momentum? TREVOR LAWRENCE: The third and goal there?
Q. Yeah, that whole sequence, first and goal and James [Robinson] doesn’t touch it, then you get in but don’t get in, how that just kind of sapped all the momentum?
TREVOR LAWRENCE: Yeah, that was tough. We score there, and defense goes back on the field, gets a stop, get the ball back to go win the game. We had just a couple—I barely missed Laviska, I think, it was on that drive down in the red zone. He ran a great route, had him in the end zone, went to one hand. Could have given him a better throw there. Then, I thought I got in, they reversed it or overturned it, whatever. [We] play the next play, and you think about like four inches, that’s tough. You want to be able to punch that in and we weren’t able to. Obviously, the Titans did a good job there, but it’s disappointing for sure.
Q. Week by week, your progression is getting better. You’ve looked more comfortable on the field. You’re definitely producing. What exactly are you seeing different now that through five games you’re getting more comfortable with the game? And how big is the impact of losing your center on a game on a day like this?
TREVOR LAWRENCE: Yeah, it’s tough. Brandon [Linder] is a great player, great person. Love being on the same team as him. He’s just the kind of guy that you want, who’s fully committed, all in. A guy that’s—I think it’s his eighth year—he’s an older guy, but he’s just so committed to this team and turning it around. Won’t find a better guy. I don’t know the extent of the injury. But hopefully—we’re optimistic. Hopefully it’s not too bad, it’s not season-ending or anything like that. But we’ll have to see. He’s definitely one of our best players, so I hope not. But Shat [Tyler Shatley] did a good job coming in and being ready. He’s a guy that’s gotten a lot of reps. So, we love Tyler. He did a good job for us. What was the first part of that question?
Q. You’re seeing things differently on the field from Week 1 in Houston to now. You’re taking a little bit more chances, but you didn’t take any deep shots, no dramatic deep shots. Why? TREVOR LAWRENCE: The way their defense is—the way their structure is, they try to take away big plays. They played just really soft today honestly, so we had to dink and dunk a little bit. We did a good job staying ahead of the chains. I thought we made good decisions all day except for that last play. Obviously, that was really bad, forced that. But they were just wanting to play really soft and take away the big plays, so we just drove the ball down the field little by little. We had a few opportunities that we almost connected on. Then one shot we were taking early in the game on second down, the guy hit my arm, and the ball flew in the air. So that was one we didn’t get. Then almost hit one to Marv [Marvin Jones Jr.], It
was going towards our end zone—almost hit that on,e too. So those are two shots we almost had. But no, it’s one of those games where– I think that’s where I’m getting better is playing smart, don’t force it. If they want to just bail out of there and take your shots away, then we can find stuff underneath. Receivers did a really good job getting open. I thought we were more efficient on offense. Obviously, we had some costly possessions as far as the scoop and score early and then the fourth-and-1 on the goal, or fourth and-inches right there. That’s tough. We’ve got to get those. But other than that, I thought we were pretty efficient on offense. I feel like I’m seeing it really well.
Q. Trevor, going back to that goal line play, Coach [Urban Meyer] just said that you guys are still working on quarterback sneaks. Did you feel comfortable being under center in that situation for a quarterback sneak, or is that something you guys are still working on?
TREVOR LAWRENCE: No, I feel comfortable. Obviously, I haven’t really ran it before in a game, but I feel comfortable. It’s something we’ve worked. We trust our guys up front, we trust our backs in that situation. Obviously, I’d love to get in there, but if we make the play, it’s like no one says anything, but it’s a TFL, and that doesn’t look great obviously. So, we all can get better. But no, a QB sneak is something we can all get to and I feel comfortable with.
Q. Trevor, this is something brand new for you in terms of every week for the most part playing uphill. You never took a snap having the lead. How difficult is that playing uphill, or do you just say, hey, it’s the NFL, and there’s going to be weeks like that?
TREVOR LAWRENCE: I mean, it does make things more difficult. I think we really think about the last two games, the Cardinals and the Bengals last week, we were ahead for some of that. I thought we played better staying on schedule. Obviously, we had some things today that got us behind. But that’s just part of it, that’s the NFL. Every week is going to be different. You’ve got to just find a way to win those games. When you get down, whatever, 12, 14, there’s so much time left. We can still win the game. I think we really are turning that, and we all believed, and we had our opportunities obviously. Like I said, it’s a totally different game if we get that fourth-and-inches. I think that brings us within five points. I think we were down 12 at the time. So that changes the whole game. Obviously, look at the score, the final score looks bad, but we were right in that game and [we’ve] just got to capitalize and we didn’t. So that’s something where we’ve got to learn how to win, got to learn how to pull those games out. When it isn’t easy, take advantage of all your opportunities. When you are behind a little bit, that’s just more sense of urgency as far as not turning it over. I thought we did a decent job after the first series of that, taking care of the ball, and then just taking advantage of every drive you get. I think we can still play more complementary offensive and defensive. Sometimes defense is playing great, and we go three and out. Or we have a long drive, then they score. It’s just like we’ve got to play a little bit more complementary. You see when teams do that, they get up quick on you. So, I think we’re getting better, but it’s something we’ve got to improve.
Q. How comfortable are you at this point of like pushing back on a play call or a situation? Do you have the freedom to do that? I know you said you trust your teammates, but when you’re down there fourth and an inch and James isn’t in the ballgame. Just a lot of surprising aspects to that particular play. TREVOR LAWRENCE: Yeah, I think we’re getting there. Obviously, actually, the first time we were on the goal line when James [Robinson] got in early in the game, it was kind of a similar look. One of the A gaps was open, and I thought about just sneaking it and could have gone in but didn’t. At that point in the game, I think it was like first or second-and-goal, so give James a shot, and he got in. And then later, they did the same thing on fourth-and-inches, but they stemmed last second and filled both of the A gaps. So, I wasn’t really as confident changing it there and going on my own and try to sneak that in with both A gaps filled. I think we still could have got it, yeah, but it wasn’t the same look as it was earlier. There’s a time and a place for all those. In that situation, you’d rather trust your guy to run the play that’s called
than try to go on your own and make a play and not get in. So, I don’t know, I mean, hindsight’s 20/20 right? So, it’s hard to say after the fact. But definitely some stuff we’ve got to look at and talk about. I think that me and Coach Bev [Darrell Bevell] and everyone, we’re getting more comfortable. I think you see the way the game is going and how we execute on offense, you can see it. As far as just putting drives together, we’re way more efficient. It’s all coming together. So, we’re getting more comfortable with each other. I think we’re going like this, but we’ve got to win some games.
Q. Hey Trevor, the past couple weeks you’ve done a good job of using your legs to kind of get out of trouble in the backfield. Have you guys worked on the scramble drill? It feels like some of your receivers aren’t working back to you to give you some opportunities to get them the ball down the field. TREVOR LAWRENCE: Yeah, that’s something that we always talk about and continue to work on that honestly we didn’t work on enough early. The last few weeks as I was starting to use my legs more, we just talked about it more and more because that’s such a big part of the game you see. Guys like Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers, all these guys, Kyler Murray, that scramble and guys are running and get separation and make plays. You have a lot of big plays there. So, that’s just something we’ve got to continue to work on, but I think the guys are doing a decent job. That’s one of those things that, if you don’t do it, it’s not natural. So, you’ve got to get used to –for me, it’s top-down, looking downfield, and get what I can and being smart. But then for them, it’s immediate reaction when you see a scramble. That’s just something that we’ve got to keep working.
Q. You haven’t lost a ton of games in your career, and it’s 0-5 this year. But 20 straight losses for this franchise. Can you even comprehend that? And how desperate do you feel this locker room is? Is it something you all think about, talk about?
TREVOR LAWRENCE: As far as the streak or anything like that? No, I mean, no, we don’t really talk about that. It’s not something we—I don’t think it’s good to talk about that. You can’t get desperate. You’ve got to just keep going to work. We’re going to win some games. We’re going to turn it around. We all thought today was the day we were going to get that first win and it wasn’t. We didn’t execute enough down the stretch, but we’re going to figure it out and we’re going to turn this thing around. It’s going to be a lot of fun when we do. But yeah, the locker room, we want to win. All the guys, we’ve got so many hard workers. Everyone’s so invested. It’s not a team where we’ve got guys that aren’t really committed or don’t care. Everyone’s all in. So, it will come. When you have guys like that and you have talent, and we have enough talent. So, I’m not concerned, but we do need to get some wins.

JAGUARS RB JAMES ROBINSON
Jaguars vs. Titans
Postgame Media Availability
Sunday, Oct. 10, 2021
Q. James, on the fourth-and-1 play, you had to watch from the sidelines. How did you feel when you saw the personnel that was going in and heard your number wasn’t called?
JAMES ROBINSON: I trust my teammates. I was hoping they were going to get in. I thought Trevor [Lawrence] got in, honestly. Like Shaq[uill Griffin]said, nine times out of ten he’s going to get in. But I have to go with the play called, and whoever is in there just has to execute.
Q. It was one of your best days with 100-plus yards on 11 carries through the first half. What was working for you today?
JAMES ROBINSON: The line just did a really good job today opening up holes. As you guys could see, every time I got the ball, it was kind of a big play. Guys up front did a really good job today.
Q. James, it was first-and-goal from the 5-yard line and you didn’t touch the ball at all the whole series. Was that frustrating after the success you had on the ground earlier in the game? JAMES ROBINSON: Like I said, I just go with the call. Whatever is called, I just go with it, and we have to be able to execute. I trust my teammates to get the job done, and it is what it is.
Q. How do you wrap your head around 20 consecutive losses?
JAMES ROBINSON: You can’t. You can’t wrap your head around that. We’ve got to find a way to win. We’re a really good team. Obviously, our record doesn’t show it, but we’ve got a lot of great guys in the locker room, and we’ve just got to find something that’s going to work for us.
Q. Obviously, it’s a losing effort, but for you had over 100 yards and a 58-yard run, did you feel like it almost was breaking through a wall, getting over a hump of sorts for you?
JAMES ROBINSON: I mean, from the start of that play, I didn’t think it was going to be a big play. I kept my feet moving. Like I said before, the guys up front made great blocks. Now it’s just up to me to keep going when I could have just stopped.
Q. Do you feel like this offense has hit its stride? Is this what we can expect from this offense? JAMES ROBINSON: Yeah, you guys can expect a lot more. I mean, we should have scored in the red zone. Like I said before, we’ve got a lot of great guys in the locker room and a lot of great guys on offense, and a lot of guys can make plays. We just have to score more.
Q. We’ve heard several players say in recent weeks, along with Head Coach Urban Meyer, about how close this team is. How close, in your assessment, is this team to getting this thing turned around? JAMES ROBINSON: I think we’re really, really close. It’s just kind of frustrating the way we play in the first half, and then we come out in the second half, and it’s just like what’s going on? I mean, we’ve just got to
come out strong and just finish every game because, obviously, last week we came out strong in the first half, this week we did too, and we’ve just got to keep it going throughout the whole game.
Q. Do you feel like these losses in the second half are just hitting the team hard, especially when you have consecutive ones this season?
JAMES ROBINSON: Yeah, we’re just really hurting ourselves. When we play good, I don’t think anyone can beat us really. Obviously, the first half shows that, but when we come out and we’re missing little details, those are the things that hurt us. That’s how the teams go up on us.
Q. Can you talk a little bit about the impact of losing a guy like Brandon Linder in the middle of the offensive line?
JAMES ROBINSON: It’s going to impact us a lot. I hate that he went down. He’s a great center and one of the greatest guys up front for me. [Tyler] Shatley is going to come in and fill that spot. I think he’s going to do a great job.

JAGUARS CB SHAQUILL GRIFFIN
Jaguars vs. Titans

Sunday, Oct. 10, 2021
Q. After 20 straight losses, how do you even get your head wrapped around that? SHAQUILL GRIFFIN: It’s tough. It’s a feeling that I don’t think no one wants. There’s a lot of things that we really, really need to figure out. Offense played really well. I feel like the defense could have done a lot more. I feel like the mistakes that we had just shouldn’t happen, and that’s what we’ve got to do better. We have to fix [this] ASAP. So far, man, it’s a tough feeling. It’s something that you don’t want. It’s something that you’ve got to change. We’ve got to do it. One thing about it, you’ve got to continue to believe, you’ve got to continue to have faith, and that’s the hardest part. That’s the hardest part for everybody, continuing to get everybody to believe. It’s not just me. It can’t be just one person believing in something. That’s the part [where we have to] continue to express, continue to talk about, get everybody to believe that we can win these games. Man, it’s a tough one.
Q. When the losses start stacking up like this, you keep talking about that belief. For some of these young players that have been here in Jacksonville and this is their second year and they haven’t seen a win in a while, how do you keep that belief in the locker room?
SHAQUILL GRIFFIN: We’re definitely still picking up heads, and it’s no problem because there’s some people who are not used to this. My main thing is I don’t know if I need to do more one-on-one talks to see how people feel in general because it’s easy to continue to say it and walk away and it goes in one ear and out the other and people not really listening. Maybe I can do a little more one-on-ones seeing how people feel up to now. But they need to continue to have faith, continue to believe, because it’s got to turn around. When it does, I don’t need anyone delaying us from anything in the future when it comes to winning. I need everybody to continue to believe and have faith because it’s bigger than any individual on this team, and it’s changing this whole organization, that’s getting this city back to where we need to be. I’m not going to stop that. I’m not going to change that. I’m going to continue to give my whole body to this game and do whatever it takes to make sure it gets turned around.
Q. How frustrating was it missing an opportunity you had early in the game to get an interception? SHAQUILL GRIFFIN: Yeah, very, very, very frustrating. On that play, I was trying to imagine myself catching it up, and when the ball came, I had both hands on it. Those are the ones I’ve got to pull in. It’s very frustrating because you talk about the ones that I did drop. If I catch the ones that I’m supposed to catch, that’s three interceptions this year. So, yeah, it’s very frustrating. Now for the rest of the game, I’m looking for the opportunity to get another ball in my hands, and it got very quiet after that. I lost a lot of opportunities after that play because I was trying to keep the game quiet. So, the chances I do get, I have to make the best of it. That’s something on me. I don’t know if it’s me thinking too much on the play. Whatever it is, I have to figure it out. I have to get those footballs and take it in because it’s a game changer. That’s the reason they got me here. I’m a game changer, so I’ve got to continue to focus and work on that. I’ve got to do more for the team. Whatever it takes, I’ve got to do more.
Q. Titans WR A.J. Brown was pretty much held in check. I’m pretty sure the assignment was to stop Titans RB Derrick Henry, but in doing so, tight ends were just roaming free in the secondary. Was it fatigue? What do you think went wrong in the second half?
SHAQUILL GRIFFIN: As far as my job, my job was to follow wherever 11 [Titans WR A.J. Brown] goes. My job was to keep him as low as possible and as quiet as possible throughout the whole game and stop the run. I feel like, when it comes to the tight ends breaking open or making some plays, I felt like it was really on us. I couldn’t say the tight end really just got off the line and was beating people. I think it was literally a lot of miscommunication, and that’s the part that’s frustrating. I hate to be the guy because I used to hate listening to it, but a coach could tell you, ‘Oh, guys, we beat ourselves again. That’s the only reason we lost.’ I used to hate hearing that. But seeing these literally self-inflicted wounds we continue to give each other [is hard.] We’ll be out there talking, and then there’s a miscommunication and someone is open by himself. Those are things that just can’t happen in football. It just can’t. After a while, it has to stop. Miscommunication has to stop. There is no reason. First-year guys, second-year guys, it doesn’t matter. It has to stop. You’ve been doing it long enough, you’re not young anymore. You played enough ball. Whatever you got to do to figure it out, whoever you got to talk to, whatever you feel like you don’t trust or believe in, you’ve got to trust your players. That’s the part we have to get better at. Our chemistry has to get better because we need to believe in one another. Whatever our play call is, whatever our assignment, we have to do our assignment. So, I don’t think the tight ends really got the best of us. I just think we really had a lot of self-inflicted wounds when it comes to that. Maybe I just have to do a little bit more, like I said. My game plan was to take out 11, and we stop the run. Go back to the drawing board. We’ll figure it out.
Q. As a captain, can you talk a little bit about the defense on the sideline urging for Head Coach Urban Meyer to throw the challenge flag? Did you see it as him throwing his support behind the players a little bit?
SHAQUILL GRIFFIN: For sure. I wouldn’t tell him to change a thing. It’s not something I would come back and say I wish [Head Coach Urban] Meyer hadn’t thrown that flag. I would tell him to throw it again. I have so much respect for Urban because he trusted us. 9 out of 10 [times], I feel like we get that ball back. There’s going to come a time again when he has to trust us and go with his gut and throw that flag again. That shows a lot from Urban to trust us to make that call because me and the defense didn’t get mad or anything like that. We went back and tried to make a play and keep it moving. But that’s trust, and we need that because there’s going to be opportunities in the game where he throws that flag and we get that ball. I love that.
Q. How deflating was it to have the touchdown called back and then not get a touchdown there where you had a chance to cut the lead down to a single score?
SHAQUILL GRIFFIN: It’s tough. I think we do a good job of not focusing on what’s going on with the offense. They’ve been doing so well. The main thing is the referee’s got to make a tough call. That’s your job. The main thing is we’re going to make it tough. 9 out of 10 [times], I think Trevor [Lawrence] gets in, so we’re going to continue to stay aggressive. Not going to change much, but you’ve got to do better. Defensive
wise, we’ve got to communicate better, got to do better. If the offense is putting up points, we’ve got to stop them from getting points.
Q. At what point did you know CB Tyson Campbell wouldn’t be able to go today? Could you evaluate the rest of the defensive backs’, CB Chris Claybrooks and CB Tre Herndon, performance today? SHAQUILL GRIFFIN: They stepped up in a big way, [which is] something that we need. I don’t look at young guys, I don’t look at weak links, I don’t look at anybody like that. When your number is called, you’ve got to be ready. I don’t care who it is, what’s your name, what’s your number, you’ve got to be ready. They
stepped up in a big way. They still have a lot to learn. The main thing is, when you have a situation like that, you’re playing with a new guy or playing with a new group, that chemistry still has to be there. If I see something, I feel something, I tell you, trust me and vice versa. That’s what we’re getting back to. Maybe I need to get more time with the DBs outside of this building. [There’s] so much with the Covid restrictions, but I have to figure out something to get this chemistry, this brotherhood, where people are trusting each other because sometimes playing this game, there’s some things that’s not going in the game plan. If I feel something from the experience I have, or you talk about Rayshawn [Jenkins] or any guys who have been playing in the league for a minute. They might feel something or see something they saw so many times. If I feel something, if I feel like it’s true, I’m going to say it. If not, I won’t say anything. But most of the time, it will be correct, so I need guys to trust that and vice versa. If they see something, say something. We had to play with me and Trey Herndon today. He felt something and changed the call completely, and it worked out, but I trusted him. We need more of that. We need everybody on that.
Q. Is this concerning that you guys don’t have the chemistry you were hoping to have five games into the season?
SHAQUILL GRIFFIN: At one point, yeah. Like I said, maybe I have to do more. That’s the reason I have this captain’s badge. I have to figure out a way to do more. Me doing it on the field is just not enough. I’m going to put it up on myself and make the changes, get the guys to believe a little bit more, have more faith in us, in each other, and we’ll get this turned around.
