#252 ASA PLAY ON 8* Jacksonville Jaguars -3 over Atlanta Falcons, Sunday at 9:30 AM ET – Game in London - Traveling to London can be a tough transition for NFL teams but the Jags are more than used to this. They have now played in London each of the last 9 seasons which gives them an advantage knowing how to prep for this situation. Jacksonville is coming off an embarrassing setback at home vs Houston and we like them to bounce back in this situation. They outgained Houston and had more first downs but had an array of mistakes missing a FG, getting a FG blocked, and turning the ball over twice. Defensively the Jaguars weakness has been defending the pass. That may not be exploited on Sunday vs a Falcons offense that only averages 155 YPG through the air and a first year starting QB Ridder who has not been overly impressive ranking 29th in QBR. Atlanta has a tougher situation as they were on the road @ Detroit last week – lost 20-6 – and now have to head to London for 2nd of back to back long road trips. This will be their first outdoor game of the season and their offense has not been good averaging just 18 PPG and only 4.5 YPP (26th in the NFL). The Jacksonville offense finished in the top 10 in both total offense and efficiency (YPP) last season but they’ve struggled out of the gate. Part of the problem has been dropped passes as they already have more than any other team in the league. This offense, with many of the key components back from last season, will be much better than they’ve looked. The Birds have won just 1 of their last 11 games not played in their home stadium and the add another “L” to the ledger on Sunday. Take the Jags.
