    The NFL is back in London! The Jaguars are playing “host” to the Atlanta Falcons in a Week 4 contest overseas. You’ll have to get up early to see this one. The Falcons are out to a hot start to the season and are tied for first in the NFC South. Jacksonville, on the other hand, has had a disappointing start to the season that has them a game back of the Colts for the AFC South. Needless to say, it will be an important game for both teams as they try to battle their own inconsistencies.

    Main Storylines to Watch

    Can Trevor Lawrence bounce back and make his weapons fantasy relevant? After a thrilling Jags debut for Calvin Ridley in Week 1, he, along with all of their receivers, have fallen off the fantasy map. Trevor Lawrence only has three passing TDs over three games with two coming in the season opener. He also has a couple picks and his yardage totals have not been at the level they were expected to be following his breakout campaign a year ago.

    How dependent is Desmond Ridder on the run game? We have seen just one good week from Ridder when everything was clicking for the Falcons offense. A week ago, the entire offense fell apart in Detroit. The running game of Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier is obviously crucial to what they can do, but can Ridder find any sort of baseline when the box is loaded against the run?
