Super Bowl 2022: Five early bold predictions, including Aaron Donald tying an NFL record
CBSN
Here are five early bold predictions for Super Bowl LVI
The Super Bowl LVI matchup is set, as the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals will battle from SoFi Stadium. The Rams will become the second team in a row to host a Super Bowl in their home stadium, as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in Raymond-James Stadium last year. Sean McVay hopes last year's result means his first Super Bowl win is imminent.
These are two teams that were constructed differently. The Rams on one hand sent draft picks away to acquire proven veterans such as Matthew Stafford, Odell Beckham Jr., Von Miller and Jalen Ramsey, while the Bengals drafted most of their talent, hitting on players like Joe Burrow, Joe Mixon, Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. While the Rams are favorites, the Bengals have done more than enough to prove that they deserve to be in the position they find themselves in, but standing in their way of a Lombardi Trophy is an experienced team that is very familiar with head coach Zac Taylor. Super Bowl LVI is sure to be a fun one. Below, we will make five bold predictions about the big game.
