At the beginning of the season, the Jacksonville Jaguars were largely ignored on the NFL odds future market. So too were the Buffalo Bills not as popular as in the past. None of that matters now that the Jags will host the Bills in a Sunday NFL Wild Card Weekend matchup. The Jaguars are a reborn franchise under the leadership of head coach Liam Coen. Namely, Trevor Lawrence has rebooted his career as an NFL quarterback for the Jags. The Buffalo Bills are in the NFL Playoffs for the seventh consecutive season.
Buffalo has long been touted as Super Bowl material. But the Bills did not play like that this season. Their 12 wins were of the patchwork variety. By contrast, the Jaguars have built momentum to become a serious playoff brand that gamblers are impressed with.
