NFL Has Never Sent Two Winning Teams To London

Oct 7, 2021 9:02 AM

The NFL will have played 30 games in London once this year's two contests are held in the next two weeks.

However, the league has never given fans across the pond a game between two teams with winning records.

The New York Jets and Atlanta Falcons, both 1-3, will square off this Sunday morning. In Week 6, the 1-3 Miami Dolphins and winless Jacksonville Jaguars will play each other.

Among the 30 games that have been played in London, only 16 of the 60 teams involved went into the game with a winning record.

Zach Wilson: I Need To Get The Ball Out Of My Hands Faster

Oct 1, 2021 9:21 AM

Zach Wilson has struggled in situations when he's held onto the football through his first three professional games.

The New York Jets rookie quarterback is 26-of-34 for 158 yards and a touchdown when getting rid of the football in 2.5 seconds. He's taken eight of his 15 sacks when holding the ball for more than 4.5 seconds.

"If the pocket’s breaking down quicker, I need to be able to get the ball out of my hands faster," Wilson said. "Sometimes if I got to skip a couple reads and get the ball to my check downs, feeling that, and it's really just reacting to what they've given me. I think every single week that can just keep getting better."
