Bengals, Rams Head To Super Bowl

This is the first trip to the Super Bowl for the Bengals since 1989, and comes just two years after they were the worst team in the NFL.

The Rams last were in the Super Bowl three years ago, losing to the New England Patriots 13-3 in February 2019.

The Rams will be playing in their home stadium, with the Super Bowl set for SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, on February 13.

Bengals  Came Back To Win In OT

Led by quarterback Joe Burrow, the Bengals came back from being down 18 points at 21-3 to get a 27-24 overtime victory over the Kansas City Chiefs for the AFC championship.

Evan McPherson kicked a 31-yard field goal with 9:22 left in OT for the win.

The Chiefs won the coin toss to start overtime, but quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw an interception to Von Bell on the third play.

Rams Comeback Downs 49ers

The Rams also had to mount a comeback after beginning the fourth quarter down 17-7 to the San Francisco 49ers.

But quarterback Matthew Stafford led the team to a touchdown and two field goals, and Travin Howard sealed the 20-17 victory with an interception of Jimmy Garoppolo with 1:09 left to play for the NFC title.

Vegas Expected To Hire McDaniels

ESPN reported Sunday that the Las Vegas Raiders are expected to hire New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels as their new head coach.

McDaniels last was a head coach with the Denver Broncos for two seasons 2009-10, and was fired after the third week in his second season.
