Total times read this article : 1

The Broncos and Jaguars treated fans in the UK to yet another close finish in the third and final London game of the 2022 season.

Russell Wilson and Denver emerged as the victors in a 21-17 game, capped off with a 2-yard Latavius Murray touchdown with 1:43 to play. But the biggest drive of the game was in the third quarter, when Wilson led a nine-play, 98-yard scoring drive to give Denver its first lead of the game, 14-10.

The Broncos’ first scoring drive was off an 11-play, 75-yard drive in the second quarter. That followed four drives that included three three-and-outs and an interception.

Denver’s defense was also key to the victory, forcing a goal-line interception by Trevor Lawrence and essentially putting the game on ice with a last-minute pick. Wilson and Co. finished the game with a fourth-down conversion on a quarterback sneak.

(All times Eastern)

Final: Broncos 21, Jaguars 17

12:29 p.m.: Oh, my. Looks like officials are going to review the spot. … and the call stands!

12:28 p.m.: Wilson gets the yardage on fourth-and-short with a QB sneak, and that’ll do it! Jags can’t stop the clock.

12:27 p.m.: Timeout, Broncos (0:34).

12:26 p.m.: Murray gets a 4-yard gain to set up fourth-and-short. Decision time?

12:25 p.m.: Timeout, Jaguars (1:24).

12:25 p.m.: Murray goes for 6 yards to set up third-and-4.

12:24 p.m.: Timeout, Jaguars (1:30).

12:24 p.m.: Murray is hit for no gain at the 35.

12:23 p.m.: Interception, Broncos. Disastrous throw by Lawrence, whose pass is picked off by K’Waun Williams in defense of Kirk. He undercut the route to give the Broncos the ball at Jacksonville’s 35.

12:22 p.m.: Jaguars will start at their 25-yard line following the touchback. Jacksonville must score a touchdown here.

12:20 p.m.: TOUCHDOWN, Broncos. Murray finishes the drive with a 2-yard touchdown to make it 21-17 Broncos with 1:43 left in the game. The Jaguars have two timeouts.

12:19 p.m.: Timeout, Jaguars (1:47).

12:19 p.m.: Murray goes for 7 yards down to the 2-yard line.

12:18 p.m.: Broncos go with a jet sweep to Hamler, who’s nearly hit for a loss of 4 or 5 yards. Instead he uses his speed to break the tackle, gain the edge and gain 8 yards.

12:15 p.m.: Two-minute warning (2:00).

12:14 p.m.: Wilson gets 10 yards on the scramble left to set up first-and-10 from the Jaguars’ 18.

12:14 p.m.: Latavius Murray fights for 5 yards to set up a manageable third-and-5 from the 28.

12:13 p.m.: Wilson had Sutland on the shallow crosser, but the receiver dropped it on what was at least going to be a first down.

12:12 p.m.: Broncos waste no time as Wilson connects with Hamler for 47 yards down to the Jacksonville 33.

12:09 p.m.: TOUCHDOWN, Jaguars. One play later, Etienne slips through the line for a hard-fought score. That gives Jacksonville a 17-14 lead with 3:54 left to play.

12:08 p.m.: Jewell finds Etienne in the hole to stop the running back for no gain and set up second-and-goal.

12:08 p.m.: Etienne gets a first-down run to the 1-yard line to set up first-and-goal.

12:07 p.m.: Zay Jones takes a reverse 6 yards to the 5-yard line.

12:06 p.m.: Now Etienne gets 11 yards down to the 11-yard line. Jags can get a first down at the 1 without a touchdown.

12:06 p.m.: Lawrence finds Kirk for 25 yards down to the Broncos’ 22-yard line.

12:05 p.m.: Jaguars have great field position after a brief return by Kirk, who gets them to the Denver 46.

12:04 p.m.: Wilson has Hamler and Dulcich downfield and somehow splits the two receivers for an incompletion. That brings up fourth-and-10.

11:59 a.m.: Montrell Washington takes the punt but doesn’t call fair catch; he’s immediately brought down at the 7-yard line.

11:58 a.m.: Dre’Mont Jones is credited with a sack on Lawrence for a loss of 6. Broncos decline the holding penalty on Robinson, setting up the punt.

11:58 a.m.: Williams has a nice defense of Marvin Jones on a deep pass, setting up third-and-9.

11:56 a.m.: Lawrence gets the yardage needed and more for a first down on the QB sneak. Jaguars’ drive continues at the Broncos 44-yard line.

11:55 a.m.: Etienne gets 9 yards on second-and-10 to set up third-and-short from the Broncos’ 47.

11:54 a.m.: Lawrence gets it all back with a 17-yard gain to Zay Jones to the Jaguars’ 44.

11:53 a.m.: Etienne’s 18-yard gain to the Broncos’ 45 is negated by a holding penalty. That sets up second-and-12 from the 27.

11:50 a.m.: Lawrence and Co. back at it from their 28-yard line.

11:49 a.m.: Wilson tries to find Gordon underneath but is nearly intercepted by Key on third down. So the teams trade punts.

11:46 a.m.: Broncos take over after the touchback.

11:45 a.m.: Lawrence can’t find a man downfield and takes it himself for a 10-yard gain off the scramble. That’ll set up fourth-and-11.

Third quarter: Broncos 14, Jaguars 10

11:42 a.m.: Broncos sniff out a slip screen, as Josey Jewell hits Etienne for a 6-yard loss to set up third-and-21. The Jaguars will have that to convert at the start of the fourth quarter.

11:41 a.m.: Jags have first-and-15 at their 34-yard line following a false start. Meanwhile, replay seems to show that officials missed a clear facemask on Walker and Co. on the previous sack.

11:39 a.m.: No. 1 overall pick Travon Walker gets to Wilson on third down for a loss 8 back to the Denver 19.

11:37 a.m.: Wilson had Jeudy one-on-one up the left sideline but underthrew him, setting up second-and-10.

11:34 a.m.: Jaguars’ drive stalls after Lawrence fails to hit an open Marvin Jones on the sideline. Looks like Broncos will take over at their 25 following the punt.

11:30 a.m.: Damarri Mathis is called for illegal contact on the Jags’ first play, giving Jacksonville 5 yards and a first down at the 30. Etienne gets an 8-yard carry on the ensuing play to set up second-and-2 at the 38.

11:29 a.m.: Looks like the Jags were called for unnecessary roughness after the touchdown, which was enforced on the kickoff. That’s an easy touchback.

11:25 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN, Broncos. Two runs by Gordon net a 1-yard touchdown for the Broncos and give Denver its first lead of the game, 14-10, with 5:07 left in the third quarter.

11:24 a.m.: Now Wilson finds Dulcich again for a 38-yard gain all the way down to the 1-yard line to set up first-and-goal.

11:23 a.m.: Wilson dumps it to Jeudy for a 5-yard gain for a questionably spotted first down. Broncos move fast and get it to Hamler for a 6-yard gain the next play.

11:21 p.m.: Wilson rips another one to Dulcich up the seam for a 22-yard gain to the Denver 46.

11:20 a.m.: Wilson finds Dulcich in the zone for an 18-yard catch-and-run to the 20 to pick up some much-needed space.

11:17 a.m.: Daniel Thomas’ 45-yard punt is downed at the 2-yard line. So it’s not all bad for the Jaguars.

11:15 a.m.: Jaguars get past midfield, but Nik Bonitto forces a strip-sack for a loss of 8 yards on second-and-14. Jacksonville gets some yardage back on third-and-long but that’s a lost drive after a decent start.

10:57 a.m.: Curious way to end the half, it looks like Wilson just throws it away instead of waiting for receivers to get downfield.

10:57 a.m.: Wilson takes aim at KJ Hamler downfield but it’s nearly intercepted by Andre Cisco. That sets up a Hail Mary attempt on fourth down to end the half.

10:56 a.m.: Timeout, Broncos (0:10).

10:56 a.m.: Wilson takes a 7-yard sack by Dawuane Smoot back at the Broncos’ 45.

10:48 a.m.: Denver takes over at its 9-yard line with 1:01 and two timeouts.

10:46 a.m.: Broncos send a blitz and Lawrence is forced to throw it away. He’s actually called for intentional grounding, setting up fourth-and-26 from the Jacksonville 48.

10:46 a.m.: Timeout, Broncos (1:20).

10:46. a.m.: Jaguars try to catch Denver napping with a delayed handoff to Etienne on second-and-10. He’s stopped for a 1-yard gain to the 38.

10:45 a.m.: Now Kirk gets 4 yards out of bounds to the Denver 39. There’s 1:27 left in the half.

10:44 a.m.: Etienne gets an 8-yard gain to the Denver 43, setting up second-and-short. Jaguars have all three timeouts.

10:41 a.m.: Two-minute warning (2:00).

10:40 a.m.: Lawrence finds Christian Kirk for an 11-yard gain to the 49-yard line between two defenders.

10:40 a.m.: Bradley Chubb is offside, making it second-and-5 for the Jags at the 38. That’s the 10th penalty vs. Denver.

10:38 a.m.: Good gracious, there’s a delay of game on the kickoff. This Denver team can’t get out of its own way. Jaguars take the ensuing kick to their 33-yard line.

10:35 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN, Broncos. Jeudy goes on a jet sweep and takes a short toss from Wilson for a 6-yard touchdown. Nice play design that works with the receiver’s speed. That makes it Jaguars 10, Broncos 7 with 2:44 left in the half.

10:34 a.m.: Wilson withstands the pass rush and finds Jerry Jeudy for a 25-yard gain in the zone. Broncos have it first-and-goal at the 6.

10:32 a.m.: Wilson gets the yardage necessary on a QB sneak. Fresh set of downs nearing the red zone.

10:31 a.m.: Denver has a choice to make, potentially facing fourth and short at the Jaguars’ 35 1/2-yard line. Looks again like officials spotted him short.

10:29 a.m.: Melvin Gordon gets a 9-yard gain to the Jacksonville 45. Denver offense is getting some nice chunk gains here.

10:26 a.m.: There’s Denver’s first first down of the game. That’s a 13-yard connection on the slant between Wilson and Sutton.

10:22 a.m.: FIELD GOAL, Jaguars. Riley Patterson’s 37-yard field goal makes it 10-0 Jaguars with 8:43 left in the half.

10:21 a.m.: Lawrence passes to Engram on a tunnel screen for 6-yard gain, bringing up fourth down.

10:19 a.m.: There’s a huge run by Etienne, who gets a nice block by Robinson and makes a man miss to get a 49-yard run to the Denver 24. Huge play there.

10:17 a.m.: Delay of game, Broncos. So that answers any question of whether Denver would go for it on fourth down. Jags take over at their 26 following the punt.

10:16 a.m.: That’s a questionable spot on third-and-1, but it appears the Broncos will punt on fourth-and-short from the 29 1/2-yard line.

10:12 a.m.: Interception, Broncos. Incredible play by Justin Simmons, who catches a hummer of a pass from Lawrence and lands inside the end zone for a touchback. Huge stand by the defense, which looked like it was ready to surrender its second touchdown of the day.

10:11 a.m.: Patrick Surtain II wraps his arms around Zay Jones on second-and-goal; he’s called for pass interference, resulting in a first-and-goal at the 1.

10:09 a.m.: Simmons is called for holding on second-and-goal against Engram. He was holding onto him for dear life, resulting in a 3-yard penalty and a first down.

10:07 a.m.: Etienne takes a 2-yard keeper out of the Wildcat to net a first down to the Denver 17. And now he has a 12-yard gain down to the 5-yard line. Jaguars are knocking for another touchdown.

First quarter: Jaguars 7, Broncos 0

10:03 a.m.: And now Justin Simmons is called for a 15-yard penalty after taunting. That gives the Jags a first down at Denver’s 28-yard line.

10:01 a.m.: Cornerback K’Waun Williams blows the play up in the backfield, but is hit with a 15-yard penalty because he dove into Cam Robinson’s legs to tackle Etienne. That’s a first down for Jacksonville at the Denver 42.

9:58 a.m.: Travis Etienne converts third down with a 5-yard pitch-out left to the Jacksonville 33.

9:53 a.m.: Broncos go three-and-out after holding and false start penalties put the offense way behind the sticks. Jaguars take over at their 19 following the punt.

9:46 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN, JAGUARS. Lawrence shows poise in the pocket and finds Engram in the end zone with safety Kareem Jackson in coverage. Jaguars lead 7-0 with 7:40 left in the first quarter.

9:44 a.m.: Travis Etienne takes it 15 yards on second-and-14 to net a first down at the Broncos’ 26. Nice play design to lure the defense left on a fake reverse to Christian Kirk.

9:41 a.m.: Interception, Jaguars. Tyson Campbell picks off Wilson in defense of Courtland Sutton. Very bad throw by Wilson, who gives the Jaguars at the Denver 37.

9:37 a.m.: Trevor Lawrence has Evan Engram down the sideline, but can’t connect on what would have been a big game. Denver takes over at roughly its 17-yard line following the punt.

9:35 a.m.: Jags get a first down off a neutral-zone infraction to the Jacksonville 38-yard line.

9:33 a.m.: Well, that was quick. The Broncos go three-and-out following a third-down 7-yard sack by Arden Key of Russell Wilson. The Jaguars are up now.
