We can’t give credit to the hash browns, because Trevor Lawrence didn’t place his order until he was done with one of the greatest comebacks in NFL playoff history. Still, a late-night trip to Waffle House after an improbable victory is a striking metaphor of just how far the Jacksonville Jaguars have come from the Urban Chop House. The menu may not be as swanky, but the grub sure is a lot more comforting. Now, it’s time to order up another playoff game, this one against the top-seeded Kansas City Chiefs.
