The best sport ever performed! Super Bowl LVI guarantees to be a battle of outdated and new with veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford going through off in opposition to second-year star Joe Burrow.
The 2021 NFL season culminates in a battle between two groups — the Cincinnati Bengals and the Los Angeles Rams — which can happen on Sunday, February 13.
Super Bowl 2022 has some large sneakers to fill after Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs challenged legendary quarterback Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV. (Brady led the Bucs to a 31-9 win over the Chiefs.)
Last year, each Brady, 44, and Mahomes, 26, got here into the stadium with Super Bowl victories beneath their belts. With the 2021 win, the previous New England Patriots quarterback introduced his Lombardy trophy whole to seven, leaving Mahomes with only one to date.
This year would be the first try at a championship title for each Stafford, 33, and Burrow, 25, marking the primary time that both quarterback has appeared in a Super Bowl sport.
Stafford beforehand performed for the Detroit Lions for 12 years earlier than being traded to the Rams in 2021. If he leads his staff to a win, will probably be the second championship for the Rams franchise.
“Long time coming, you know? Spent a lot of years in this league and I’ve loved every minute of it,” the Florida native told reporters after the staff’s NFC win in January. “I feel blessed to be able to play in this league for as long as I have but I sure am happy for this opportunity for not only myself but, really, so many guys in that locker room that deserve this too. And that’s what it is, it’s an opportunity to go out there and win another one.”
For Burrow and his Bengals, there may be extra on the road. The Iowa native, who briefly performed school ball at The Ohio State University earlier than ending his career at Louisiana State University, may change into the primary athlete to win a Heisman Trophy, a university National Title and the Super Bowl.
What’s even greater, nevertheless, is that the younger participant may give the Bengals their first Super Bowl title in franchise historical past.
“I think if you had told me before the season, I would’ve been very surprised,” Burrow advised Monday Morning Quarterback’s Albert Breer after the Ohio staff’s AFC win final month. “But I’m not surprised right now because we’ve gone through a whole year. I know the kind of team that we have, and I know the guys that we have in the locker room. So right now, I’m not surprised. But if you were going to tell me after last season or in OTAs [organized team activities], I think I would’ve called you crazy.”
