“That also plays a part in this as well.”
Pederson added, “You can criticize me all you want. Point the finger at me. That’s fine because it’s where it starts. But the players, they put their best foot forward every single day. This is an exhausted team right now, and we need this week to get rejuvenated again, get fresh again, get ready to go for the last six games.”
Pederson, too, said he met with owner Shad Khan following Sunday’s game with no plans to do so Monday – also reiterating what he said immediately following Sunday’s loss that he is “still evaluating” whether to make staff changes.
“You have to be really, really careful when you start pointing fingers at certain people,” he said. “It’s a dangerous thing and I’m not going to do that. Not right now. As a head coach in this league that’s going through what we’re going through, you’re pointing a finger.
“If it’s going to be pointed, point it at me. Start with me.”

Jaguars players will be off after Tuesday, with coaches working further into the week.
