London's team
The Jaguars are playing in London for the second straight week, meaning they didn't have to adjust to the new time zone while getting ready for the Texans.
This is the third time in four years. Jacksonville has played in England in two consecutive weeks. The Jaguars are 2-0 in the second half of London back-to-backs. They beat the Buffalo Bills in 2023 and the New England Patriots in 2024.
"I have no idea if it gives them an advantage or not," DeMeco Ryans said. - Peter Warren
Wembley Stadium and the NFL
Wembley Stadium has hosted NFL games since it opened in 2007, replacing the previous venue of the same name. It has a capacity of around 86,000 for football games, larger than any NFL stadium.
"I heard it's really loud," Will Anderson Jr. said. "I heard the fans, it sounds like it's going to be a soccer game. They just stand up and cheer just to cheer. It's going to be an excellent environment that I'm really excited about." - Peter Warren
Penalty box
The Texans have committed double-digit penalties in each of the past two weeks. It didn't come back to bite them against the Titans, but it's an area that needs to improve against the Jaguars.
"You have to play clean," Ryans said. "You have to play with the proper technique. You have to finish the right way. If we want to continue to progress as a team, we have to clean up the penalties. You can't hurt yourself." - Peter Warren
