Super Bowl 2022 Here are five early bold predictions for Rams-Bengals including an unlikely first TD scorer

It's finally here. The Super Bowl LVI matchup is set. Theandwill battle from SoFi Stadium in a matter of days. The Rams will become the second team in a row to Jamal Crawford Jersey host a Super Bowl in their home stadium, as the defeated the 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 , , and , while the Bengals drafted most of their talent, hitting on players like , , and . 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.The undrafted tight end out of Mi souri has spent the majority of his career on the Rams' practice squad, but he played a career-high 11 games this season. In the NFC Championship game against the , Rams starting tight end injured his knee. Blanton replaced him, and caught a career-high five pa ses for 57 yards., it appears Higbee avoided a significant injury, but his status for the Super Bowl is still up in the air. That could help our bold prediction, which is that Blanton scores the first touchdown of the game (+1400 over at Jason Kidd Jersey Caesars Sportsbook). Blanton is the red-zone weapon Cincinnati won't be ready for, as all attention should be on , Beckham and the running backs. Against the Buccaneers in the divisional round, Blanton actually scored the first touchdown of the game. When the Rams approach the red zone early in the game on Feb. 13, McVay will dial up something underneath for the young tight end. WHAT A TIME for Kendall Blanton's first career touchdown! | Los Angeles Rams (@RamsNFL) Maybe that first touchdown comes off the arm of OBJ! Beckham has thrown two touchdowns in his career on six pa sing attempts in the regular season. He Nicolas Claxton Jersey 's seen as a versatile playmaker who can wear the trick-play quarterback hat, and he even hit downfield for 40 yards against the in the first round of the playoffs. In Super Bowl LVI, McVay will open the playbook again, and Beckham will throw a touchdown. 1/2 This OBJ-Cam Akers pa s came about during practice about a week ago when a broken play saw Beckham fling the ball deep downfield. Sean McVay and Rams coaches thought to themselves... hey we should get him a trick play. Jonathan Jones (@jjones9) Donald is the best defensive player in the NFL, and he has recorded 1.5 sacks in three playoff games this year. We say he will record three by himself next Sunday against the Bengals. This Cincy offensive line has some i sues, and Burrow was sacked a whopping nine times against the in the divisional round. It's almost a miracle the Bengals escaped Music City with a win, but their defense held up their end of the bargain, allowing just two touchdowns.The official record for most sacks in a Super Bowl is 3.0, and it's been done four times -- including in back-to-back years with (2017) and (2016). Unofficially, L.C. Greenwood of the recorded four sacks in Super Bowl X, but sacks weren't counted as an official stat until several years later. We say Donald gets three next week. James Harden Jersey One matchup that's going to be fun to watch is Chase vs. Ramsey. They are two of the best at their respective positions, and are expected to be going head-to-head for the majority of the matchup on the NFL's biggest stage.Chase caught nine pa ses for 116 yards vs. the in Super Wild Card Weekend, and then five pa ses for 109 yards against the Titans. However, he caught six pa ses for just 54 yards and a touchdown against the Chiefs this past weekend. Those aren't "bad" numbers, but it was Higgins' turn to step up as the lead wideout. The prediction here is that Chase is held in check by Ramsey, but slips him once in the red zone and catches a touchdown. Chase finishes with five catches for 49 yards and a touchdown.The Bengals can still win without Chase running wild in the secondary. We have seen both Higgins and take over as the leading receiver at times this year. The Bengals are one of 12 teams that has yet to win a Super Bowl. That number decreases to 11 in Super Bowl LVI. Cincy is clearly this year's Cinderella, even though Burrow has made it clear he hates the underdog narrative since he believes his squad is worthy of the highest respect. Despite taking down the Raiders and upsetting the No. 1 seed Titans, many didn't realize the Bengals were for real until their upset win over the Chiefs. This offense can out-score anyone and the defense is playing hot as well. As , the Bengals defense has ended every single postseason game they have played with an interception.In my game script, Garrett Temple Jersey a late field goal by puts this one away, as the rookie with a win.
