Most Recent Developments as Jaguars Welcome Rams at Wembley

Los Angeles quickly returns to Jacksonville's side of the field because of a substantial defensive penalty and a 23-yard-long throw to receiver Colby Parkinson.

Then, Adams grabs his first catch to move Los Angeles inside the 20-yard line on the 15-yard spot.

It seems, the former NFL star, working as a Sky Sports analyst, supports Arsenal.

Did have a bit of Patrick Vieira about him, didn’t he?

Offensive holding pushes the Jaguars 10 yards deeper, difficult beginning to their riposte.

A great knock down by Turner on the line of scrimmage results in third down and long and Lawrence's pass sails over Travis Hunter.

A quick punt once more. A 1min 27sec drive then a 80-second series is certainly going to preserve those Rams linebackers fresh.

Even without Nacua, they excel.

The quarterback utilizes five various targets on the initial possession finishing with rookie Konata Mumpfield for a five-yard score.

He has only made two catches in his brief professional tenure.

Outstanding play to score that amid defensive pressure after going for it on 4th and 3.

The Rams begin their drive and in Nacua’s absence Davante Adams is targeted but overthrown on the first snap.

Higbee, the tight end then finds the first down with an easy short pass out the quarterback's right side.

A balanced approach of rushing and passing in the downpour earns two more first downs with the receivers playing a key role.

Higbee in particular is sustaining the drive with a couple of great grabs with what looks like more of a bar of soap than a ball.

Then comes the moment: McVay opts against a field goal. Fourth down and three from the 16 and the Los Angeles attempts the conversion.

They succeed thanks to running back Kyren Williams securing the catch.

Kickoff time! The Jaguars' offensive unit begin play for the opening drive.

Immediately, Jared Verse tackles the quarterback. The defensive pressure is evident.

A tough opening the Jaguars hoped for. Three and out. They punt.

Welcome, sports fans, it's week seven in the NFL and has delivered that rarest of treats: a contest with both teams holding positive records in London!

The Jacksonville, standing at 4-2 host the 4-2 LA Rams at their London base in Wembley.

This is very much cause for celebration as at 2:30 PM British time and the dawn hours for fans in LA at 6:30 AM we have a shot at concluding this year’s London series with a cracker.

London has been graced only once before with a matchup between two “good” teams when the New York Giants and Green Bay Packers, both holding 3-1 marks, competed in two years ago.

It took 15 years of slop to finally receive a blessing in Daniel Jones vanquishing Aaron Rodgers with a 27-22 victory with a strong second-half rally after facing a 17-3 deficit.

The G-men would go on to make the playoffs so are either the Rams or Jaguars heading in that direction?

Both teams are favorably placed with LA in a three-way tie at the summit of their division and Jacksonville a game behind Jones’ Indianapolis Colts in the AFC South.

It's somewhat premature to start projecting for the postseason however so we'll examine this contest.

Key roster updates are the Rams are missing the great Puka Nacua at pass-catching role and the Jaguars are lacking key defender Devin Lloyd.

On the field, the story so far for both teams has been one of successes let down by inconsistency.

For the Rams the kicking game has been a concern while the offensive unit, guided by the veteran QB, has been one of the highest-performing in terms of gained yards and efficiency across the league but are inefficient inside the 20-yard line scoring a touchdown only 50% of the time they get inside the 20-yard line.

Expect the Rams' head coach, digging into his box of tricks to present multiple offensive looks as the Los Angeles seeks to break the 30-point mark for the first occasion in 2025.

On defense, LA are much more solid and have shut out opponents from touchdowns in two games.

The players the Jaguars should fear are the top defensive pair in football Jared Verse and Braden Fiske.

Victory could depend with how well Jacksonville protect their quarterback Trevor Lawrence.

Alternatively, they might get the running game going again to ease the burden on the QB after struggling against the Seahawks.

Jacksonville supporters will wish the Trevor Lawrence that defeated Kansas City appears in this game.
