LONDON (AP) — Latavius Murray scored on a 2-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter to help the Denver Broncos snap a four-game losing streak by ...

Jaguars return specialist Jamal Agnew was inactive for a second week in a row because of a knee injury. Wilson then scrambled for 10 yards on a third-and-5 to get to the Jacksonville 28. The Broncos (3-5) erased a 10-point deficit on Jerry Jeudy's 6-yard touchdown reception in the first half and Gordon's 1-yard run to complete the 98-yard scoring drive. Lawrence was 18 for 31 for 133 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. The Broncos finished with 12 penalties for 81 yards. Last week, Etienne fumbled into the end zone in the 23-17 loss to the New York Giants. The late score gave Murray a touchdown for two different teams this month in London. Wilson led two go-ahead scoring drives in the second half on his return from a hamstring injury. “He got it out of the way early. Gordon then ran it in to give the Broncos a 14-10 lead. There’s a moment in time where it clicks.” Believe in it,” Wilson said.

On Sunday, the Broncos brought him on a similar jet sweep motion, and Wilson shoveled the ball forward to Jeudy. Melvin Gordon III punched the ball in from the 1-yard line to cap the drive and give the Broncos the lead. The Broncos trailed 7-0 and appeared to be heading into a 14-0 hole when the Jaguars faced a first-and-goal from the Denver 1-yard line early in the second quarter. With the way the offense looked early in the game — the unit did not pick up its first first down until later in the second quarter — the Broncos appeared in danger if the Jaguars took a two-touchdown lead. The Broncos' defense, as always, did enough to give the team a chance. In a change from previous weeks, though, the Broncos made the plays that winners make.

Broncos 21, Jaguars 17: 5 Observations on Trevor Lawrence, Josh ... (Sports Illustrated)

The Jaguars dropped yet another winnable game, falling to 2-6 and effectively ending their 2022 season.

Now, the Jaguars let a quarterback and head coach under fire to have arguably their best day of the year, going 3-for-3 in the red-zone. The feeling around the Allen rumors has been that teams are calling the Jaguars to inquire about the young and athletic pass-rusher as opposed to the Jaguars simply shopping him, but should they reconsider? But despite the investments, the Jaguars still look like an offense with a bunch of secondary options and no alpha dog target they can turn to in the game's biggest moments. He also carried the ball a career-high 24 times and arguably could have gotten even more of the load. Allen recorded one quarterback hit on the day, but backup defensive linemen Arden Key and Dawuane Smoot each recorded a sack and multiple quarterback hits. The Broncos have made quarterbacks look terrible each week in 2022, entering the week with one of the best pass defenses in recent history.

Broncos vs. Jaguars score, takeaways: Denver rallies past ... (CBSSports.com)

The Denver Broncos defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars 21-17, snapping their four-game losing streak as they improve to 3-5 on the season.

With less than two minutes to go in the game, Lawrence through an interception on the first play of their drive. That second touchdown -- a Gordon score -- gave the Broncos the lead and the confidence they needed right out of halftime. The final interception was crucial in a tight game, and being able to close things out for the win has been something the Broncos have struggled with this season, but they got it done in Week 8. The touchdown was set up by a 47-yard pass to KJ Hamler and a Wilson play that extended the series on third down. He rumbled for 156 yards on 24 carries and also gave Jacksonville the lead in the fourth quarter with a 1-yard score to make it 17-14 after the extra point. The Broncos defense was struggling to slow down the Jaguars, who marched down to the red zone again.

Denver Broncos edge past Jaguars as quality takes backseat to ... (The Guardian)

Delirious Wembley fans happy to overlook failings of both sides in front of record crowd for an NFL game in London.

The cycle is complete, the fantasy fulfilled. I hate the Broncos so it is the Jags for me. Fickleness aside, the fact that most were still cheering should be seen as a badge of honour. Marino is a teenage Miami fan in the stands? The atmosphere certainly is friendly. Probably not, but the moribund Jaguars have attracted a record crowd of 86,215 for an NFL game in London.

... and again, struggling to score 21 points and struggling to mount a 3-5 record is not exactly what Denver bargained for. The return of Wilson from a hamstring injury allowed him to out-do Jaguars’ second-year quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the No. Wilson would finish 18 of 30 for 252 yards, with one TD and one interception.

Denver Broncos Should Avoid Unloading Key Players At Trade ... (Forbes)

Denver Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett has bought himself some time — for now. Following the Broncos' Week 8 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars ...

If you trade Chubb now — or any of Denver’s other key players — for draft capital, you’re sending the signal that the win over Jacksonville means nothing. Furthermore, Chubb is the final year of his rookie deal and is expected to command a contract worth at least $20 million annually. As Schefter noted, one team is willing to offer the Broncos a first-round draft pick. In fact, if they had lost, it wouldn’t have shocked anyone if Denver fired Hackett on the plane ride back home to Colorado. But Denver showed some fight in their win over the Jaguars. The robust amount of penalties.
