Eagles-Jaguars preview: 5 things to watch

Key Points:

• The Eagles face a tough challenge in their Week 5 London game against the Jaguars, with key injuries to their rushing backs Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby leaving inexperienced players to carry the load against one of the NFL's best run defenses.
• Philadelphia's offensive line is severely weakened due to retirements, trades, and injuries, resulting in a makeshift unit with minimal NFL experience that struggled significantly against the Rams' blitz-heavy defense, while their passing attack remains limited without top receivers like DeVonta Smith.
• The Eagles' defense must contain Jaguars' fast and explosive running back Bhayshul Tuten, who poses a big threat due to his speed and the Eagles' current struggles with tackling and run defense.
• Trevor Lawrence leads a strong Jaguars passing offense, featuring standout receiver Parker Washington, putting further pressure on the Eagles' secondary to perform well and avoid giving up big plays.
• The Jaguars' offensive line is average but mostly healthy, while the Eagles' defensive line has been underwhelming; the Eagles will likely need a significant pass rush and turnovers to have a chance, but the Jaguars are expected to control the game with a conservative offense and strong defense.
