Jaguars 44, Ravens 7
Blake Bortles threw for four touchdowns and Jacksonville ran roughshod over Baltimore at Wembley Stadium in London.
Multiple players from both teams took a knee during the national anthem. Jaguars owner Shad Khan was also on the sideline and locked arms with protesting players.
Bortles was 20 of 31 for 244 yards with no turnovers. Jacksonville also forced three turnovers and improved to 2-1 for the first time since 2007.
Tight end Marcedes Lewis caught three touchdown passes.
Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco had one of the worst performances of his career. He completed just 8 of 18 pass attempts for 28 yards with two interceptions. Flacco had a 12.0 passer rating and has thrown an interception in nine consecutive games.
The Jaguars dominated Baltimore (2-1) from the opening whistle. Jacksonville took a 10-0 lead in the first quarter on a 23-yard field goal by Jason Myers and a 17-yard touchdown pass from Bortles to Lewis.
Another 45-yard field goal by Myers increased the lead to 13-0 at the half. The Ravens had given up just 10 points in their opening two games.
Jacksonville went up 20-0 when Bortles threw a five-yard touchdown pass to Allen Hurns on third-and-goal. A 23-yard kick by Myers made it 23-0 lead the half.
Baltimore had just 15 yards in the opening half and had one first down. That was the fewest yards in any half in franchise history, according to STATS Research. The previous franchise low was 16 yards in the first half on Oct. 24, 2011, also against Jacksonville.
