NFL Exec Says Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars Should Be in Super Bowl 'Conversation'

Despite a 6-2 record and the NFL's longest winning streak, the Jacksonville Jaguars are not being considered a serious Super Bowl contender.

FanDuel Sportsbook lists the Jags as +2000 underdogs to hoist the Lombardi Trophy, ranking them 10th among all teams.

One personnel executive thinks Jacksonville is being underrated.

"Jacksonville should be in the [Super Bowl] conversation," the executive told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.

The Jaguars would be the No. 3 seed if the season ended today but have their toughest stretch of regular-season games upcoming. Jacksonville will play the San Francisco 49ers, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens over their next six games, a sink-or-swim stretch that will allow Jacksonville to test its mettle against some of the league's top contenders.
