The 2007 season was one of the best in franchise history for the Jacksonville Jaguars. It was the last time the team won 11 games, and the group stunned the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road in a cold January night game in the AFC Wild Card round.
The run ended in the Divisional Round against the New England Patriots, who were coming off a 16-0 regular season, the first and only team to do so since the expansion to 16 games. But one key member of that Jaguars team thinks the run ended too soon.
On an episode of The Volume Sports Network’s ‘Catching Fades with Aquib Talib,’ former Jacksonville running back Maurice Jones-Drew, who alongside Fred Taylor led an explosive Jaguars backfield, said that the 2007 squad should have gone to the Super Bowl.
