The San Francisco 49ers are making the long trek across the Atlantic to play in London on Sunday for Week 8 on the schedule and they will be facing off against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley Stadium in a game that will air live on Sky Sports and on FOX starting up at 1:00 pm and local time at 5 p.m.
The Niners come into the game hot, not having lost since starting the season 1-2 and the Jaguars obviously are coming in terrible and winless with zero wins and seven losses and the English culture and time zone aren't likely to help them win this weekend. The Niners were in the Super Bowl last season and lost to the Ravens and the Jaguars are starting up their run of three years playing across the pond. The game is streaming online with the NFL league pass and the 49ers are getting ready to try and win a fifth straight game before heading into their bye week and this is a game that is set up for them to do so, as the Jaguars are pretty terrible and while they could put up some type of fight, chances are they will not come even close to winning the game.
The team opened the season with a win over the Packers before getting beaten twice while scoring just 10 points combined against the Seahawks and the Colts and then the team gets to try for another win after four straight games and they won an impressive stretch over the Texans and the Titans and now they will play against the Jags and then they have a bye week and out of that things will continue to be tough. The Carolina Panthers are next and then the team plays three road games in five weeks and they play a tough game on the road against the New Orleans Saints and then against the Washington Redskins on Monday night football in their first game on ESPN and the team will next play two big division games against the Rams and the Seahawks and the game against the Seahawks will be big, because this time it will be in California after the last game was in Seattle and was a dominating win for the Niners.
The team has three of the last two games on the road against the Bucs and then at home on Monday night football again against the Falcons and then the team plays on the road against the Arizona Cardinals. The team is looking for wideout help after losing Michael Crabtree and Mario Manningham and while both may return, there is a chance that the team could go after a wide receiver in the trade deadline and Josh Gordon looks like the top option and the team comes in with a top rushing offense ranked number three, while the passing offense is 31st in passing yards per game and on defense the team is ranked in the top five in passing yards per game and they are 18th in rushing yards per game.
The game on Sunday between the San Francisco 49ers and the Jacksonville Jaguars will be starting up at 1:00 pm and will be 5 pm local time and the game will be on FOX and airing on Sky Sports in England.
