Why are jammers better than briefs?

I train in briefs and hate the feel of jammers, but what should I race in? I'm deciding on my race suit for the new year. Why are jammers better? Compression, muscle vibration, drag??

    Race in what you are most comfortable. If you are more comfortable in a brief, then race in it and don't worry about a jammer. I find jammers to be more comfortable to race in. Yea, I train in a brief with a mesh drag suit but I hate the way the brief feels. I prefer to save the jammers for racing. It's a pysche thing to put on a different feeling, looking suit for me as well.
