‘There was so much to unpack in this game. Ultimately, the Jaguars executed better offensively and defensively. They ran 28 more plays and controlled the football for 17 minutes more than the Bills. While the Friday flight to London with a Sunday game might have affected acclimatization for the Bills, the Jaguars had already been there for a week and were already properly adjusted. It may have been jet-lag that affected Buffalo’s energy and execution. Injuries affected the Bills and the incredible amount of penalties chopped this game up. Coming into this game, the Bills were the third-least penalized team in the league averaging 33 yards in penalties, but they were flagged for 109 yards in penalties.’
