Super Bowl LVI: Rookie vs. Veteran, The Vet Won.
The third time almost proved to be a charm for the Cincinnati Bengals. It was a longshot for the team that lost the Super Bowl in 1982 to San Francisco 49ers and in 1989 to the San Francisco 49ers a second time. But like the little steam engine that keeps saying, “I think I can,” they kept pushing through and through for forty years since their first appearance and thirty-three years since they last played at a Super Bowl until finally, they made it over the hill to Super Bowl LVI. But it just wasn’t meant to be this year.
What a glorious night it is for the Cincinnati Bengals and their 6′ 4″ twenty-five-years old QB Joe Burrow who wasn’t even born the last time the Bengals went to the Super Bowl. Twenty-five-year-old Burrow is the recipient of the 2020 Heisman Trophy. He played for The Ohio State University (2015–2017), where he graduated in three years with a degree in consumer and family financial services. When Dwayne Haskins was named starting quarterback at Ohio State, Burrow transferred to Louisiana State University (LSU) on May 20, 2018.

Super Bowl Super Entertainers Dr Dre And Snoop Dogg Had The Crowd Rocking
By the time the Half-Time Show rolled around, the L.A. Rams had the Bengals at 13 to 10, but the game was not over.
The Halftime show featured veteran mega entertainers: Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, 50 Cent, and Eminem.
The Halftime Show started at 8:09 p.m. and ran for fourteen minutes of solid rocking fun. It went by in a blur. By the time the Halftime show was over, it felt like they performed for 3 to 4 minutes instead of fourteen minutes. Amazing.
Less than a minute into the second half of the game, the Bengals take the lead over the Rams by four points — 13 to 17—the Los Angeles Rams quarterback NFL 12-year veteran Matthew Stafford. With less than two minutes to go in the game, a Ref who it looks like he has been bought and paid for penalized the Bengals. That call put the L.A. Rams in the lead to take the win.
