On February 13th, the Rams beat the Bengals in Super Bowl XV1. The Rams, who won by three points, were performing well all game: the Rams scored seven points in the 1st quarter, six points in the 2nd quarter, three points in the 3rd quarter, and another seven points in the 4th quarter. Though the Bengals did score, they couldn’t keep up, earning only three points in the 1st, seven in the 2nd, ten in the 3rd, and no points in the 4th quarter. Because of this, the final score was 20-23. The Los Angeles Rams also had the first score of Super Bowl 56.
Matthew Stafford capped the Rams' second drive with a 17-yard touchdown pass to Odell Beckham Jr. with 6:22 left in the first quarter. Beckham suffered a knee injury late in the second quarter of the Rams' Super Bowl LVI win.
Before the Super Bowl, the Rams were 16-5, meaning that the Rams won 16 games and lost 5 games. The Bengals finished with 13 wins and 8 losses. The NFL Conference Championship for the Rams was a very tight game against the 49ers, resulting in a final score of 17-20.
