Walsall dropped out of the automatic promotion places for the first time since September 7, after registering back-to-back draws against Harrogate Town and Newport County respectively.
Those successive stalemates over the Easter weekend extended their winless run to 12 games in League Two, with Walsall picking up just two wins from their last 19 overall.
But Jellis insists everyone must draw a line under their recent struggles and view the final two games as a prime opportunity to achieve their end goal of promotion to League One.
"No one wants the success more than the players and it's hard to be in this position because everyone wants it so much," the midfielder said.
"Everyone in and around the club and the fans. We want to do it for them and for us so it's a massive opportunity now to draw a line under what has happened over the last three or four weeks.
"Now we look to a two-game shoot-out. There are other games being played elsewhere that could help us massively.
