So with all the major changes from the last patch which is a better AF, the Jaguar or Wolf? I am guessing the wolf as you can now web/scram with one module making having only 2 mid slots not so bad?

It really depends, shield tank or armor tank. DPS doesn't seem to be too much better for a Wolf at all, since you can fit Gyros on a Jag.

I feel that the jag can be slightly better fro 1 vs 1 situations rather than the wolf but both can be quite good in those roles, a Wolf with one gyro and two dmg rigs can be quite devastating esp. with heat. it will get a good amount of EHP and a dps of around 200.

The Jaguar is a heavy tackler: very fast, very strong shield buffer, reasonable DPS. The Wolf is more of a DPS ship: more weapons, more lows for damage mods, fewer mids for tackling.
Both have their role, and both fill them very well.

Depends on the situation. Sorry.
Full gank Wolf setup 200~ dps with crappy skills but your tank wont be too good.
Gank Jag setup less dps but better tank.
Full tank big ship tackle Jag fits a lovely tank and carries about 100 dps.
I prefer the Jag, its more survivable with MSE + a speed mods and Gyro in an AB fit than the Wolf is vs' most targets.
If you are part of a large camp go with a sensor boosted arty wolf and terrorize frigates and pods/soft targets.
Also, MWD speedfit jag with an MSE can do a better job as an interceptor than some of the true interceptors 
EDIT: Aforementioned Arty Jag is an excellent killmail *****

I have been playing with EFT and the Wolf looks nice as a tackler. I have a lot more DPS and with the Scrambler I can both web and point at the same time. I then use some of the lows for armor tanking and an AB to orbit very close with a low sig radius.
This is all hypothetical as I have yet to try this out, so please show me the error of my ways.

Jaguar is the better ship overall. Less DPS than the wolf, but a better tank, better speed, and the ability to fit a web make the Jag more versatile and more survivable in virtually any situation these two ships might find themselves in. The Wolf is great as specialized DPS support in a frig gang. The Jag does it all. Also in a 1v1 of Jag v. Wolf, the Jag will completely dominate.

Yes. Very little sense to put an AB on a Jag, since it uses ACs and a passive shield tank.

I fly my Jag exclusively with an AB. Seems to work for me.

Jag you can probably go either way. with an AB and a speed mod it's actually decently fast compared to cruisers, unlike all the other AFs. AB lets you use 200mms with a MSE, MWD forces you to drop down to 150mm or 125mm depending on skills.
Edit: worth pointing out that with the AB overloaded, the Jag goes slower than, say, the Zealot with a non-overloaded MWD, though.
fly at your own risk
