Everybody talks about Trevor Lawrence and the passing game with the Jacksonville Jaguars, but as Doug Farrar details, it could be the Jags' ability to exploit the Bills' bad run defense that decides things in the wild-card round.

The AFC side of this weekend’s wild-card games features more defense than the NFC. Yards and points should be harder to come by outside of the Jaguars-Bills game. In those grind-it-out contests, it could be the role players who swing the outcome as defenses allocate their resources to focus on taking away the bigger names.

The Rams have a good defensive line led by Jared Verse and Byron Young. That group will get in the backfield and make a quarterback’s life absolute hell. It doesn’t always lead to sacks, but getting some offenses out of whack regularly will typically lead to good things for a defense.

With the NFL regular season in the books, which players were the best of the best at each position? Using advanced data, the Next Gen Stats analytics group compiles a 2025 All-Pro Team, with a defense and special teams led by a dynamic Texans duo.
