Will Patrick Mahomes once again prove to have the 49ers’ number? Or will the Niners boost their confidence with a win over the Chiefs’ dynasty?

For the second consecutive Sunday, the Jaguars will play in London as they clash with the New England Patriots at Wembley Stadium.

Last weekend, the Jaguars were rocked by the Chicago Bears, 35-16, as Caleb Williams, the top pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, threw four touchdowns to shred Jacksonville’s defense.

The Jags have played in London more than any NFL team, making England their home away from home.
