Bears vs. Jaguars final score, results: Caleb Williams shows out as Chicago downs Jacksonville in London image

Caleb Williams and the Bears entered their Week 6 duel with the Jaguars hoping to put forth a dominant display, the sort of holistic showing that could fire off reverberations, both in the NFC North and beyond.

Mission accomplished.

Chicago (4-2) was dominant in the latest iteration of NFL London, riding the strong performance of its strong-armed gunslinger to a decisive 35-16 victory over lowly Jacksonville (1-4), which looks destined to retain its status as one of the league's true cellar-dwellers for yet another season.

Williams was the standout figure in Sunday's showing, completing 23-of-29 passes for 226 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. He added an additional four carries and 56 yards on the ground, showcasing a part of his game that hasn't quite landed on the marquees at this point in his big-league career.

He was one of a few Bears talents to show out in Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The same statement could apply to Keenan Allen (five catches, 41 yards, two touchdowns) and D'Andre Swift (17 carries, 91 yards, one touchdown). Cole Kmet  was Chicago's leading receiver and snagged two TD catches of his own. He also served as the Bears' long-snapper after the team's go-to guy, Scott Daly, left the match due to injury.

The Bears' defense was similarly harrowing, collecting two turnovers and holding Trevor Lawrence and Co. to just two touchdowns.

All told, it was another gleaming performance for Williams and his team, which now takes leave during its bye week. A date with another high-profile youngster — Commanders standout Jayden Daniels — looms in the shadows. But for now, the Bears will delight in their win, one which brings them that much closer to the top of the NFC North ladder.

Bears vs. Jaguars live updates, results, highlights from 2024 NFL London game

(All times Eastern)

End of fourth quarter: Bears 35, Jaguars 16

12:15 p.m.: Allen bursts off the line of scrimmage, displaces his marker and collects Williams' arrow on fourth-and-three — a move that could quite possibly prove a death knell for the Jaguars.

12:07 p.m.: TOUCHDOWN! The Jags find pay dirt after Lawrence hits Davis on fourth-and-goal. Seven minutes left, so we'll see what happens. They didn't find their target on the two-point attempt, for what it's worth.

Bears 35, Jaguars 16

11:52 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN! Swift trots into the end zone as Chicago pushes its advantage to a whopping 25 points.

Bears 35, Jaguars 10

11:45 a.m.: INTERCEPTION! Lawrence is picked off by Josh Blackwell as Jacksonville's misery is compounded! A blowout is on the horizon.

11:42 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN! Williams hits Allen again for his second score of the contest. This is turning into a rout.

Bears 28, Jaguars 10

11:36 a.m.: Penalties continue to rear their ugly heads as the Jags attempt to get off the field. A 12-men on the field call is compounded by a defensive holding, both of which override third-down stops and keep Chicago humming down the field.

11:27 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN! Lawrence fires a dart to Davis, who successfully hung on to record his first touchdown since signing with Jacksonville in the offseason. The Jaguars have life!

Bears 21, Jaguars 10

11:21 a.m.: Jags desperately need a score here. They're slowly but surely moving towards one — for the first time since their opening possession, the Jaguars are employing the "death by a thousand cuts" tactic to a tee, accruing intermediate gains to take themselves up the field.

11:15 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN! Keenan Allen gets in on the action now, corralling an impressive Williams toss to push the Bears further out in front. The move was even accompanied by an epic "tea time" celebration. How wonderful...

Bears 21, Jaguars 3

11:07 a.m.: FUMBLE! The struggles continue for Lawrence and Co., who recorded a nice gain via pitch-and-catch with Jacksonville's signal-caller and Engram. Just as the play looked to be ending, the ball was dislodged from Engram's grasp falling into the hands of a Chicago defender. 

11:05 a.m.: The Jaguars will start the second half with possession of the ball. They'll certainly need it — they've struggled to create much of anything against this formidable Bears defense thus far.

End of second quarter: Bears 14, Jaguars 3

10:47 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN! Kmet does it again, snagging a delicate Williams effort in the back of the end zone to pick up his second score of the day. He's on double duty with long-snapping responsibilities, so he wasn't able to celebrate too much. But he's having a wondrous day at the office thus far.

Bears 14, Jaguars 3

10:45 a.m.: Williams makes things shake in open field once more, breaking containment before racing down the field for an additional 19 yards. Chicago is two yards out from pay dirt.

10:38 a.m.: Williams bursts down the verdant green pasture that opened up in front of him. His 24-yard gain has the Bears on the cusp of entry into Jacksonville territory...again.

10:34 a.m.: Williams' pick wasn't too disastrous for Chicago's defense, who held Lawrence and Co. quiet to force another punt, Jacksonville's third in as many possessions.

10:29 a.m.: INTERCEPTION! Williams will want that one back. The rookie hurler attempted to find star wideout DJ Moore with a booming toss onto the goal line.

But the pass had too much air on it. Andre Cisco leapt high to rip Williams' effort out the sky, spelling an end to what looked a strong Bears possession up to that point.

10:27 a.m.: Williams slides a 28-yard effort to his fellow rookie Rome Odunze. The Bears have made it out the shadow of their end zone, setting up shop now just outside Jacksonville's 40.

10:24 a.m.: The overturned call was no matter for those of a Bears disposition. Chicago stifled Jacksonville in its final two plays of the drive, coaxing its opposition into another punt.

10:22 a.m.: ...or did it? After an official review, referees ruled that Etienne had not secured full possession of the ball prior to his alleged fumble. The play was ruled an incomplete pass. Jacksonville gets a reprieve.

10:19 a.m.: FUMBLE! A promising Jaguars drive ends before it gets started. Lawrence flicked a dart to Travis Etienne Jr. in front of the first down marker. The former Clemson standout saw his dreams of a catch and run turn to rubble after having the ball ripped out of his grasp. Completely derailed a drive which looked enticing, particularly after Tank Bigsby's 41-yard kick return

10:14 a.m.: TOUCHDOWN! Chicago opens its touchdown account, courtesy of a slick play design by Shane Waldron. Williams faked screens to Keenan Allen and Swift before hitting a streaking Cole Kmet down the field, who subsequently shrugged off a would-be tackler to trot into pay dirt. 31 yards in the blink of an eye. The Bears tight end even took on long-snapping duties with Chicago's regular LOS out for the game.

Bears 7, Jaguars 3

10:13 a.m.: Williams hits Roschon Johnson on the screen pass, who proceeds to slalom past tacklers en route to a 17-yard gain on third-and-six.

10:11 a.m.: Chicago is beginning to hit its stride on the ground. Williams rambled for a first on a cheeky read option.

10:08 a.m.: D'Andre Swift finds a hole and races through the mire for 12 yards —   the Bears' first first down of the contest.

10:04 a.m.: Another promising Jags drive fell apart at the final hurdle. Chicago will be granted possession to start the second quarter.

End of first quarter: Jaguars 3, Bears 0

9:56 a.m.: Talk about cultural diffusion:

9:55 a.m.: Curious moment for Williams and Co. on third-and-intermediate. Williams attempted to fulfill one of his signature sidearm tosses. But it went awry, limping out of his hand. Chicago will send the ball back to Jacksonville.

9:49 a.m.: FIELD GOAL! Cam Little finds his target from 30 yards out. Jacksonville gets itself on the board.

Jaguars 3, Bears 0

9:48 a.m.: Davis drops the ball in the end zone after incurring some contact. Jacksonville will have to settle for three.

9:45 a.m.: Lawrence hits Christian Kirk as Jacksonville moves inside Chicago's 10. We're looking at first-and-goal.

9:41 a.m.: Strong start by Lawrence thus far. In addition to his throw to Davis, he's also scrambled for a first and sent bolts to Engram and leading receiver Brian Thomas Jr. Jacksonville has breached Chicago territory.

9:39 a.m.: Lawrence finds Gabe Davis on the out round, moving the chains on third-and-short.

9:36 a.m.: Williams attempted to conjure up some magic as rushers pooled into his pocket on third down. However, he couldn't escape Roy Robertson-Harris' clutches. Jacksonville shuts the door and gets the ball back for its floundering attack.

9:33 a.m.: The Jaguars deferred after winning the coin toss. The Bears are going to lead the dance to start things.

9:25 a.m.: For your viewing pleasure, here's what Caleb Williams sported while walking through the tunnel this morning:

9:20 a.m.: Plenty of luminaries out and about at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this morning. Among the most notable is Chicago-based rapper Lil Durk. I remember claiming Dipset... 

9:15 a.m.: Star tight end Evan Engram is back in contention for Jacksonville, giving Trevor Lawrence another useful option in the Jags' pass game. He racked up 963 yards in 2023 and figures to be among Lawrence's top targets after overcoming a hamstring issue in Week 4.

9:00 a.m.: Here's a closer look at each side's inactives for this morning's game. The Bears will have to make due without DBs Jaquan Brisker and Tyrique Stevenson, while the Jags will be without DT Jeremiah Ledbetter, among others.
