The New England Patriots are the NFL's gold standard. The Jacksonville Jaguars were a laughingstock franchise for the last few years until they suddenly put together a great defense in 2017. One team that most fans across the country are sick of. One team that most fans across the country can't believe is here in the first place. One of these teams will move on to Super Bowl LII.
Over the last five years, including the playoffs, Patriots teams led by Tom Brady are 7-6 against teams that ranked in the top five of defensive DVOA.
