Head coach Chris Petersen held his weekly Monday press conference today on Montlake, to talk about how the Huskies fared against the California Bears this past weekend. He also took the time to discuss this weekend’s matchup against the Stanford Cardinal.
Here are things of note that he said…..
Petersen said he liked the way Special teams play

Petersen said they will work hard to fix things and he loves the guys
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said there is no one he cares more about than Jake Browning but they needed a spark
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said it was more about the offense and not Browning and he is always the QB at UW
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said every other position group has had people taken out
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the defense is playing well but the offense has been struggling
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said ABSOLUTELY! Jake will be our Quarterback this Saturday!
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said Haener does great things in practice each week and brings different things to the table
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said he doesn’t remember if Browning asked “why” on the sideline when he was taken out
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the decision to do the FG on 4th and 10 was easy because of how good the defense was playing
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the defense has to get more turnovers
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said Cal didn’t turn the ball over and killed the clock at the end of the game.
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the wide receivers and QB connections comes down to details
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said this was the first time he thought about bringing Haener into the game all season in that situation
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said Haener throws the ball slightly different and uniqueness to him. It was all about a SPARK he keeps saying religiously 😉
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said he wants QB to trust their reads on every play
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said he wanted to make the QB change before they got real deep in the 4th Quarter
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said you run the plays you think will attack the defense no matter who the QB is
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said he doesn’t know if Browning is better than a year ago but it comes down to a new offensive coordinator and those things too
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said Browning makes great plays and did in that game too but they needed a spark
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said he isn’t putting this on one person! It’s everybody involved!! QB, coordinator, coaches, etc…
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said Trey Adams and Hunter Bryant are close!
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Again!! Petersen said it wasn’t about the QB but it was about the offense. It wasn’t a sent message type of thing he said
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said Browning is the toughest guy in the room and he can take it
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said him and Browning have been through a lot together and knows him inside and out and Jake won’t back down and tank
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the red zone offense is frustrating as all get out and they need to get into a better rhythm down there
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said it’s up to the doctors on when Myles Gaskin comes back
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the first pick by Browning was both Jake’s fault and also Aaron Fuller’s!
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the coaches need to give the QB better answers
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the kickoff teams look different later in the season and guys get nicked up. It’s hard to simulate the speed of the coverage in practice
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said there is always concern about how every position on the team is being coached 😉
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said the team was for sure angry and disappointed
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said it’s not to talk about how they control their own destiny!
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said Bryce Love last week looked like the Bryce Love of last year
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said he has breakaway speed and deceptive size
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said Stanford’s defense has good players and they flash. Tough and hard nosed defense

Petersen said Browning will practice hard this week and try to put the team in best position to win this week!
— Jeff Wright (@jdub2379) October 29, 2018
Petersen said he doesn’t know if Trey Adams will play at all this season. He said he is still a ways away…..
