The NFL is continuing its games in London, taking the league to an international level while remaining the most popular sport in the United States.
Expanding the game has been a key goal for the NFL in recent years, and during Week 6, the Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars played in front of fans across the ocean. It was an exciting matchup for two quarterbacks who were both No. 1 overall picks.
Caleb Williams, the rookie quarterback for the Bears, has been showing his potential week after week. The Bears dominated the Jaguars, with Williams throwing for four of Chicago’s five touchdowns. He is proving to be an elite talent and justifying his selection as the most recent No. 1 overall pick.
The Bears improved to a record of 4-2 this season, showing strong signs of growth, while the Jaguars lost again, dropping to 1-5 after the 35-16 defeat. The Jaguars were clearly outmatched in this game, and their morale is suffering early in the season.
Following the loss, Jacksonville safety Andre Cisco spoke to the media, criticizing his teammates. “How should I say this…. A lot of quit,” Cisco stated.
Cisco’s comments suggest that the Jaguars’ locker room may be struggling. This doesn’t mean what he said isn’t accurate. Once Williams got going, the Bears kept scoring, totaling 35 points.
After starting the season reasonably well on defense, the Jaguars have struggled lately, allowing at least 35 points in three of their last four games. Cisco did manage to make a first-half interception against the Bears in Week 6.
