Jacksonville has failed thus far to live up to preseason expectations after two straight losses. It&#8217;ll need to get back to .500 &#8212; both on the season and in London (currently 4-5 all time) &#8212; to start rewriting the early narrative of its season.<\/p>\n<p>The Falcons are likewise on a mission to rediscover the win column in their third-ever trip overseas, having dropped to 2-1 last week. They do, however, boast a four-game win streak over the Jags dating back to 2007. If they push that to five straight before the rest of their division kicks off, they&#8217;re guaranteed to keep pace with the winner of the Buccaneers-Saints game for first in the NFC South.<\/p>\n<p>The quarter mark of the season is quickly approaching, and both of these teams have statements still to make.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are three things to watch for when the Falcons and Jaguars square off in London on Sunday:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/static.www.nfl.com\/t_thumb_squared\/f_auto\/league\/api\/clubs\/logos\/ATL\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP\/\/\/wAAACH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/static.www.nfl.com\/t_thumb_squared\/f_auto\/league\/api\/clubs\/logos\/JAX\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP\/\/\/wAAACH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>WHERE:<\/strong> Wembley Stadium (London)<\/li>\n<li><strong>WHEN:<\/strong> 9:30 a.m. ET | ESPN+<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/2023-nfl-season-three-things-to-watch-for-in-falcons-jaguars-in-london\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NFL returns to London for a 16th year on Sunday, kicking off the 2023 International Series with a showdown <span class=\"more-text\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":294451,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
