DENVER — The Denver Broncos and Jacksonville Jaguars have an unexpected rivalry brewing.
Last year, Jaguars’ head coach Liam Coen took offense to Sean Payton calling Jacksonville a “small-market team,” even though Payton wasn’t taking a shot with his comments.

On Sunday, Denver got revenge for their 34-20 loss last year with a 20-13 comeback win to grab their first win of the season.
After the victory, multiple Broncos called out the Jaguars for different reasons, which continued to light the flame of a unique rivalry between the two teams.
