The Buffalo Bills enter this international clash with newfound confidence, thanks to their recent triumph over the formidable Miami Dolphins. The Bills secured a resounding victory on home turf, and now they aim to carry that momentum across the Atlantic as they prepare to face the Jacksonville Jaguars at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
In their most recent encounter with the Jaguars, the Bills managed a mere six points. Surprisingly, that isn’t even their worst offensive display against this opponent.

Doug Pederson vs Sean McDermott
While the Bills endured an early setback with an overtime loss to the New York Jets in the season opener, they have since rebounded impressively. In their most recent outing, they dismantled the Miami Dolphins with a commanding 48-20 victory, a remarkable feat considering the Dolphins had posted a staggering 70-20 win just a week prior.
The result of their stellar performance is a Bills team that now boasts a 3-1 record, ranking second in the conference in offense and holding the distinction of having the AFC’s top defense. Their offense has been on fire, averaging an impressive 34.75 points per game. However, it’s worth noting that the Bills haven’t scored anywhere near that number against the Jacksonville Jaguars in over a decade.
On the opposite side of the field, the Jacksonville Jaguars find themselves with a 2-2 record for the 2023 season. They have been scoring an average of 20.00 points per game while conceding 20.50 points to their opponents. Impressively, their defense has held its own against formidable teams like the Kansas City Chiefs. Although the reigning champs secured a victory in Week 2, they were limited to just 17 points on that occasion.
However, the Jaguars’ offense has left much to be desired. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence must elevate his passing game rapidly to boost their offensive capabilities. In the most recent game, Lawrence performed decently, accumulating 207 passing yards and one touchdown. While this performance is respectable, there’s room for improvement.
The Jaguars take confidence from their recent performance in London, where they triumphed over the Atlanta Falcons with a convincing 23-7 victory. This victory on British soil has instilled hope in their ability to enhance their statistics.
