The last time these teams met (2014), the Eagles erased a 17-0 halftime deficit to beat the Jags, 34-17. That remains Philadelphia's largest second-half comeback since Week 15 of 2010: 21 points at the Giants. This will be Philly's first game in London while Jacksonville will be playing its sixth, most by any team.

The Eagles are coming off a 21-17 loss to the Panthers in which they led 17-0 entering the fourth quarter. That was just the third loss in franchise history when leading by 17 or more points at any point in the fourth quarter and the first since 2006 (Week 2 vs. NYG).

The Jaguars are riding a three-game losing streak which has seen them score just 28 points, their lowest output in a three-game span since 2013 (28 points in first 3 games). Jacksonville has just two rushing touchdowns this season, tied for the fewest in the NFL, after tallying 18 last season, tied for second most.

Carson Wentz threw for 310 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions against the Panthers. Wentz has amassed 10 passing touchdowns with just one interception this season, joining Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees as the only QBs with 10-plus touchdowns and no more than one interception.

Blake Bortles has been named the starter despite being benched in the loss to Houston. Bortles has a three-game win streak in London, including a blowout of the Ravens last season which saw him throw for four touchdowns, tied with Tom Brady (2012 vs. Rams) for the single-game record in Wembley Stadium.

Jacksonville has struggled to score six points when reaching the red zone, getting a touchdown on just 42.9 percent of red-zone drives, tied for the third-lowest rate in the NFL. Philadelphia's defense has stiffened in the red zone, allowing opponents a TD on 42.3 percent of trips, the fourth-lowest mark.
