Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals exceeded expectations this season, going from 4-11-1 in 2020 to representing the AFC in the Super Bowl this year. Burrow was named Comeback Player of the Year and led the NFL in both yards per attempt and completion percentage, shining in Year 2. - The Los Angeles Rams spoiled their special season in Super Bowl LVI, led by terrific performances from Matthew Stafford, Aaron Donald and MVP Cooper Kupp. After the Rams’ 23-20 win, Stafford went searching for Burrow on the field so he could share some words of wisdom with the young quarterback. - Stafford came away impressed with Burrow, saying he loves competing against him. - “You’re a hell of a player,” Stafford said. “You got a great future, man. Love competing against you. You just keep being you, buddy.” - Stafford and Burrow are both at very different points in their careers. Stafford just finished his 13th season and hadn’t won a single playoff game prior to this year. Burrow also just won his first playoff game, but at only 25 years old, he’s got a lot of winning in his future. - So long as Stafford remains in L.A. and Burrow continues to play the way he has, the Rams and Bengals are going to remain contenders for years to come. Unless they both reach the Super Bowl again next season, the Rams and Bengals won’t square off until 2023. - - List - - 15 crazy stats and records from Rams' Super Bowl LVI win - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Rams Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Rams Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
