Boss Gary O'Neil says Wolves cannot continue to rely on excuses and the clock is ticking to find results.
Currently bottom of the Premier League after one point from their opening seven games, they host second-placed Manchester City on Sunday.
Wolves have faced five of the top seven and, by the time they travel to Brighton next week, will have played all of them in their first nine matches.
They also sold captain Max Kilman and forward Pedro Neto in the summer while defender Yerson Mosquera suffered a season-ending injury in the defeat at Aston Villa last month but O'Neil admits Wolves are running out of defences.
The 41-year-old said: "I understand one point from seven isn't good enough and we need to prove we are better than that. That tipping point will come soon.
"We can't sit here forever and say we've had tough games and lost a couple of important players in the summer.
"Now what? Come on then, let's go. At some point it's going to come and we need to get it going."
Wolves have conceded 21 goals - the highest in the league - and were beaten 5-3 at Brentford before the international break.
O'Neil will also be without forward Hwang Hee-chan for at least two weeks after he suffered an ankle injury on international duty with South Korea.
"It would be unrealistic of me to think everyone outside of here will have a real detailed look at how we played and the numbers," added O'Neil, who has managed the club since last summer.
"Look at the league table, we've got one point from seven and everyone starts panicking would be the reaction I would expect outside of here.
"Points-wise it has been very bad. We sit here now, seven games in with one point, and if you don't look into the depths of how and why then it sounds like a disaster.
"I have 100% faith myself and the playing group will show everyone we are more than capable of competing at this level but the longer it goes on the more urgent it becomes."
