Super Bowl LVI: Staff picks and predictions for Rams vs. Bengals

Super Bowl LVI has finally arrived and with it comes a matchup between two teams that are pretty easy to root for.

On one side, we’ve got the Cincinnati Bengals. Led by second-year quarterback Joe Burrow, there is seemingly nothing he can’t do. From his knack for big plays to his cool demeanor, Burrow is the man right now. With his duo of rookie sensation Ja’Marr Chase and the severely underrated Tee Higgins, the Bengals have one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL.

On the other side is the Rams, playing in their home stadium. Matthew Stafford help lead this team to the big game in just one season after being traded from Detroit. The move paid off as he masters Sean McVay’s innovative offense. With the Offensive Player of the Year in wide receiver Cooper Kupp and a clone of Obelisk the Tormentor in Aaron Donald, the Rams are looking for redemption since their last trip in 2018.

The Rams enter this game as 3.5-point favorites, according to Tipico Sportsbook.
