Blake Bortles leads Jaguars to 34-31 win over Bills at Wembley – Yahoo News (AP)

"It was the defense that gave the Jacksonville Jaguars a big lead over the Buffalo Bills at Wembley Stadium, but it was Bortles that put the final touch on the 34-31 victory by completing a 31-yard touchdown pass to Allen Hurns with 2:16 remaining.“The offensive line, they did a great job as far as just giving Blake a lot of time,” Hurns said of the winning play. “Blake does an awesome job of just keeping plays alive.”The Jaguars (2-5) won their first game in London after losing in each of the past two seasons at Wembley, the home of England’s national soccer team. The Bills (3-4) were playing in the British capital for the first time."

Buffalo Bills vs Jacksonville Jaguars: Grades, Notes, and Quotes – Bleacher Report

"The offense performed when it mattered but had quite a few errors. Bortles had one his worst performances in a while, but orchestrating that drive late was a big moment for him and the Jaguars. Running back T.J. Yeldon had a fantastic game (115 yards, one score), and his efforts were a big help to the Jaguars’ first-half offense and the first drive of the second half.The wide receivers were decent, and the tight ends were relatively average. The Jaguars offensive line had its best game of the year so far, and the holes it opened for Yeldon and the protection for Bortles was a one-two punch that hasn’t been seen this season."
