No, the Jacksonville Jaguars are not playing in Super Bowl LIII, but they can learn a few things from the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams later this evening.
While it looked like Jacksonville would be the team to beat after handing the Patriots a 31-20 loss here at TIAA Bank Field, the wheels came off on a dreadful season shortly thereafter. While New England picked itself up and won the AFC East with an 11-5 record, the Jaguars fell in the opposite direction, tumbling to a 5-11 mark.
The Los Angeles Rams were solid throughout the season, winning the NFC West and finishing the regular season with a 13-3 record.
