Jacksonville Jaguars pulled off a messy 19-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in London, but not without costly mistakes. Thirteen penalties, a dropped touchdown pass, a missed PAT due to a bad snap, and failing to score from the 1-yard line highlighted the Jaguars' self-inflicted wounds. Despite facing an Eagles team missing key offensive players like Saquon Barkley, De Vonta Smith, and Tank Bigsby, the Jaguars escaped thanks to a last-second 57-yard field goal by Cam Little.
The Eagles' defense, led by Jalen Carter with two strip sacks and three tackles for loss, kept the game close. Jalen Hurts managed to guide the depleted offense, connecting with Darius Cooper on a 61-yard touchdown. However, the offense stalled in the second half before Jake Elliott's 48-yard field goal with eight seconds left seemed to secure the win — until special teams drama unfolded.
Most surprisingly, defensive tackle Da Von Hamilton stepped in as long-snapper after Ross Matiscik's injury, delivering a crucial snap on the game-winning kick despite an earlier errant snap. The Jaguars must clean up their mistakes or risk losing to stronger opponents in upcoming weeks.
