There’s something nice about a London game as a viewer in the United States. Usually when we wake up on a Sunday, we need to kill a few hours before we get to football. That wait is a lot shorter when there are games in Europe.

In Week 5, the Jacksonville Jaguars are in London for a second straight weekend. This time, they’re technically the visiting team to the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo played at home in Week 4, demolishing Miami. They traveled across the pond midweek.

Whether it’s the London game or any of the other games on the Week 5 slate, your betting experience will be improved with $200 in bonus bets from DraftKings. Make sure to
