Maybe the annual trip to London is just what struggling quarterback Blake Bortles needs to break out of his — and the Jacksonville Jaguars’ — three-game slump, according to ESPN’s Mike DiRocco. Bortles has a history of playing well in Wembley Stadium, and another good performance there should energize an offense that has failed to score points in the first half of the past three games. Bortles has 923 yards passing, eight touchdown passes and two interceptions in four trips overseas, including a four-touchdown performance in last season’s 44-7 rout of Baltimore.
