The Broncos rank last in scoring with 100 points through seven games this season. That’s seven less than the next closest team, the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Denver’s offensive issues are unlikely to be resolved with the potential return of Russell Wilson, who missed Week 7 with a hamstring injury. If Wilson plays, he will have limited mobility – as the Pro Football Docs detailed earlier this week.
They have a run offense score of 64 after the loss of Javonte Williams. Their pass offense score is 69 with both tackles out and Wilson hampered by the hamstring injury.
On defense, the Broncos are without Randy Gregor and Ronald Darby, plus defensive linemen DeShawn Williams and D.J. Jones are playing at less than 100%.
The Broncos have allowed the fourth least passing yards and are 15th in rushing yards allowed.
Jacksonville is relatively unscathed on the offensive end, but left guard Ben Bartch is on IR with a knee injury. James Robinson was traded to the Jets this week, ceding the main running back role to Travis Etienne.
JaMycal Hasty and Snoop Conner will likely compete for the back-up role.
On the other side of the ball, No. 2 cornerback Shaquill Griffin is out this week with a concussion but he is the only absence from the starters.
Jacksonville is 13th in rushing yards allowed and ranks 25th against the pass.
The Jaguars are favored by 2.5 points in London against the Broncos and the over/under is 40.5, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
