LA has come alive throughout the postseason. The defense has been amazing and that high level of play should continue. Cincinnati's weak offensive line doesn't stand a chance against Aaron Donald and the Rams. For that reason, we should expect a massive performance from the league's best interior defensive lineman.
For more insight on the Rams' Super Bowl 56 matchup against the Bengals, listen below:
Meanwhile, LA's offense has been on point as well. Cam Akers has provided solid production out of the backfield despite his fumbling problems. The Bengals have a decent rush defense but have a tendency to get torched through the air. For that reason, we should see Cooper Kupp and Matthew Stafford put up big numbers for the Rams.
With that said, here are four bold Rams Super Bowl predictions for their matchup against the Bengals.

Rams Super Bowl Predictions
4. Aaron Donald sacks Joe Burrow 5+ times
The Bengals offensive line is so bad the Rams could literally just rush Aaron Donald by himself and he'd still put pressure on Joe Burrow. Okay, maybe that's a bit of a stretch, but it's hard to imagine Cincinnati slowing Donald down at all. It's going to be a long day for them and LA's defensive line should feast.

We watched Burrow get sacked by the Tennessee Titans nine times and scramble for his life nearly every play against the Kansas City Chiefs. Somehow the Bengals have managed to win regardless, but the Rams are a different animal. Look for Aaron Donald to have a field day in the Super Bowl.
3. Cam Akers wracks up 100+ total yards of scrimmage
He's been great since coming back from his Achilles tear and should play a key role for the Rams on Sunday. He's had some fumbling issues, but Los Angeles has trusted Cam Akers so far. The Bengals are solid against the run, so don't be shocked if Akers picks up most of his yards through the air. Either way, he should be in for a big day.
2. Cooper Kupp reels in 3+ touchdowns, has one of the best Super Bowl performances of all time
Cooper Kupp has been an absolute monster all year long. There is no reason to believe he'll suddenly slow down in Super Bowl 56. Cincinnati has a mediocre pass defense that the Rams should be able to pick apart. Kupp has been the best receiver in the league and nobody on the Bengals' defense matches up well against him. This is such a big mismatch that we could witness one of the greatest Super Bowl performances of all time on Sunday.
1. Matthew Stafford lights up the Bengals defense and wins his first Super Bowl ring
For the first time in his career, Matthew Stafford will be playing in a Super Bowl. After years of mediocrity with the Detroit Lions, Stafford has found new life in LA. He's been electric for the Rams throughout the season and aims to hoist the Lombardi Trophy on Sunday. To do that, Stafford must put on a show.
Luckily for him, he has Cooper Kupp and Odell Beckham Jr. at his disposal. Furthermore, Sean McVay has proven to be one of the best coaches in the league. With these four leading the way for the offense, it's hard to imagine the Bengals' defense bothering Matthew Stafford much in the Super Bowl. If everything goes according to plan, we should see the Rams win it all, giving Stafford a much-deserved championship ring.
