What time does the Bears vs. Jaguars start? TV information for the game in London

Vaseline October 13, 2024

A pair of head coaches under the microscope led the Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars to London on Sunday.

Matt Eberflus has questioned whether he was the right man to usher in the Caleb Williams era after a few lackluster seasons in Chicago with Justin Fields. It’s been a mixed bag so far in 2024, but Williams has shown enough flashes to keep the heat off the head coach.

What gives Eberflus a boost is the coach’s defensive background, which has transformed the Bears’ defensive unit into one of the fiercest defensive teams in football.

That will be a tough challenge for the Jaguars, who have struggled on the offensive side of the ball this season under the tutelage of Doug Pederson. Trevor Lawrence has taken some criticism for not fully living up to his new, flashy contract, but perhaps more has gone to the head coach, who has yet to pull the Jaguars out of the mud.

That all makes for a much more intriguing matchup in London than their respective records indicate. Here’s how to watch the week 6 showdown:
