Jacksonville Jaguars (vs. Philadelphia Eagles, London)
Speaking of the Eagles, not only did they just lose Lane Johnson to an in-season retirement, but they also just traded center Cam Jurgens to the Baltimore Ravens. Furthermore, the Eagles blew a fourth quarter lead to the Los Angeles Rams at home, and perhaps worst of all, this team does not do a single thing well.
Not a thing.
In today's NFL, no team is perfect, but the teams that make deep playoff runs and win Super Bowls do at least one thing exceptionally well. Philly just doesn't excel at anything, and on the flip side, the Jacksonville Jaguars do.
Quarterback Trevor Lawrence has simply been outstanding across the past 10 regular season games for the Jaguars, dating back to the final six-game stretch of the 2025 regular season. In fact, Lawrence is playing at an MVP level at this point, and it's not like the Jaguars also aren't awesome on defense, too.
This is one of the more complete teams in football, and while the roster talent in this game is actually rather the same, the Jaguars have a massive advantage at QB and with their coaching staff. This is a game in London, so it's also a de-facto home game for the Jaguars, who seem to play in London each year.
With the way each franchise is trending, the Eagles might be closer to rebuilding than you might think, and there is a distinct chance that the Jaguars make a deep playoff run this year. I guess there is always a chance that Philly can pull off an upset, but I am not sure where the team is going to find any sort of legitimate advantage to kickstart that upset.
This is a game that almost feels too easy to predict. The Jaguars are going to win this one by double-digits.
Prediction: Jaguars win 28-17
