Both the Philadelphia Eagles and Jacksonville Jaguars currently sit at 3-4 on the season, far below expectations but certainly not as bad as things could be. On Sunday, the two teams will meet bright and early for a game at Wembley Stadium in London, beginning at 9:30 a.m. ET on NFL Network (live streaming via FuboTV, NFL).

Philadelphia went 1-1 before Carson Wentz returned from injury, and he’s been very good since his return. He’s completed 70.8 percent of his passes for 1,502 yards, 10 touchdowns and just one interception. Each of the Eagles’ losses this year have come by less than a single score.

Jacksonville, on the other hand, have been on the receiving end of three multi-score losses over their past three games, making their once-league-best defense look rather pedestrian. They own one quality win over the Patriots in Week 2, but have losses to the Titans, Chiefs, Cowboys and, most recently, the Texans.

Both teams would like to reverse their fortunes and move in a more positive direction, and they’ll have an opportunity to do so on Sunday. Below is all you need to know to follow the action.

Eagles vs. Jaguars news

• On the injury front, the Jaguars recently placed linebacker Donald Payne on injured reserve, promoting cornerback Dee Delaney from the practice squad in a corresponding move.
• Blake Bortles is the primary topic of discussion among Jaguars fans and critics. Bortles himself, oddly, referred to himself as the “scapegoat”, despite his struggles.
• As Jags fans note, Bortles is an issue, but the team hasn’t been doing him any favors. On either side of the ball.
• There are even open questions as to whether or not Tom Coughlin was persuaded to keep Bortles.
• And Jaguars fans aren’t happy that the team is sticking with him as a starter. Malcolm Jenkins also recently took a shot at Bortles, noting that “Colin Kaepernick deserves a job.”
• The Jaguars could (and should) be mulling some position changes — like moving Taven Bryan back to 3-tech and changing left tackles.
• For the Eagles, they ruled out Darren Sproles, Sidney Jones, and Nathan Gerry in their final injury report.
• Philadelphia also placed a player on injured reserve in Derek Barnett, promoting practice squad cornerback Chandon Sullivan to the active roster.
• The biggest test for the Eagles’ offense will be containing the creative Jacksonville pass-rush.
