LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles Rams fans and Super Bowl ticket buyers who live in close proximity to the surrounding area appear to be taking their sweet time. So much so that Thursday morning saw the average ticket price of Super Bowl LVI fall below the Super Bowl LV average for the first time since Sunday’s matchup was set between the Rams and Cincinnati Bengals. Thursday also featured a somewhat surprising slide in “get in” prices for the cheapest seats, hitting $3,400 all-in per seat… Source link

If you are bullish on stocks, best hope the NFC’s L.A. Rams pummel Joe Burrow’s Cincinnati Bengals. That is, of course you are a big believer in the Super Bowl Indicator. The often bantered about Super Bowl Indicator suggests that stocks rise for the full year when the Super Bowl winner has come from the NFC, but when an AFC team wins it falls. Of course this is insane in principle as stocks move up and down based on expectations for the future earnings of their underlying companies (see Meta… Source link

The Los Angeles Rams are giving the Cincinnati Bengals points against the spread in Super Bowl LVI. The Rams opened as 3.5-point favorites over the Bengals after beating the San Francisco 49ers 20-17 in the NFC championship game. The Bengals advanced to their first Super Bowl since 1989 with a 27-24 overtime win over the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC title game earlier in the day. The total for the game opens at 49.5. The Bengals beat the Chiefs 27-24 in a game that went under the 54.5-point… Source link

Technically, Super Bowl LVI will feature the worst matchup in history. Now that’s not to say that the game is going to be bad. Based on how Sunday’s conference championships — and the rest of the postseason — went, the game is bound to be plenty entertaining. The game, however, will be the lowest-seeded Super Bowl matchup in history. The Cincinnati Bengals, who entered the postseason as a No. 4 seed, knocked off the Kansas City Chiefs in a wild overtime battle in the AFC Championship… Source link

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Walk around SoFi Stadium before Sunday’s NFC championship game, and it’s easy to forget who the home team is. A sea of red-clad San Francisco 49ers fans poured into parking lots a few hours before kickoff despite the Rams’ best efforts all week to protect their home-field advantage. One carload of 49ers supporters honked their horn and waved team gear out their windows as they approached the stadium. Other big groups of 49ers fans posed for pictures in front of the… Source link

The Los Angeles Rams’ efforts to prevent their home stadium from becoming hostile territory on Sunday may have an unintended consequence. It appears the Rams’ defensive maneuver has only made 49ers fans more motivated to snatch up tickets to Sunday’s NFC championship game. Lifelong 49ers fan Shane Stern didn’t want the Rams to get away with restricting ticket sales to buyers with credit cards registered in the Los Angeles area. Last Sunday morning, Stern posted on Twitter that he would… Source link

The Los Angeles Rams beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 30-27, in Sunday’s divisional playoff game at Raymond James Stadium, sending Tom Brady home for the remainder of the playoffs and Matthew Stafford into his first conference championship game. And what a thriller it ended up. After Brady and the Buccaneers had tied the score with less than a minute left, erasing a one-time 24-point Rams lead, Matthew Stafford hit Cooper Kupp on 44- and 20-yard passes in the waning seconds to set up the… Source link

When the Green Bay Packers lost on Saturday, the Los Angeles Rams’ sales department was ready.  Saturday’s result ensured that the winner of Sunday’s NFC divisional round playoff game between the Rams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers would host the NFC championship game. In a show of optimism, the Rams were promoting ticket sales on Sunday morning. With one caveat.  No 49ers fans allowed. At least the ones who live in San Francisco — or anywhere else outside of Los Angeles. Facing the prospect of… Source link

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will play Sunday’s playoff game against the Los Angeles Rams without Tristan Wirfs.  The All-Pro right tackle sprained his right against the Philadelphia Eagles last week and was on the Bucs’ inactive list ahead of kickoff Sunday. He sustained the injury on Tampa Bay’s first drive in the wild-card win over Philadelphia.  He briefly returned, but was ruled out for the game when it became evident that he couldn’t play. He practiced on Friday in hopes of playing against… Source link

When the Arizona Cardinals were 10-2, not everyone was convinced they were legit. It wasn’t necessarily fair at the time. The skepticism ended up being prescient.  The Cardinals had the type of collapse you won’t see too often in the NFL. They followed a 10-2 start with a 1-5 finish, including an embarrassing 34-11 wild-card playoff loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night. This comes a season after the Cardinals turned a 6-3 start into an 8-8 season with no playoff berth.  Quarterback Source link
