The Rams spared no expense building a Super Bowl-caliber roster, and the team cashed in on expectations with a 20-17 win over the 49ers in the NFC title game.
“Love this team,” said coach Sean McVay, who led the Rams to the Super Bowl for the second time in the last five seasons. “We got one more.”On Sunday, Feb. 13, at SoFi Stadium, the Rams will play the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI. Think about that. It’s flat-out unreal.
Star lineman Aaron Donald pressured 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo into desperation mode, and linebacker Travin Howard intercepted a pass that sealed the victory, breaking the Rams’ six-game losing streak against the 49ers and sending them to the Super Bowl.In 2019, the Rams traded for Ramsey, pairing him with Donald, a three-time NFL defensive player of the year. Last year they traded for Stafford, and then during the season traded for star linebacker Von Miller.
Stafford now has led the Rams to playoff victories over the Arizona Cardinals and the Buccaneers and 49ers.Stafford was cherishing the moment. To advance with a victory over the 49ers was especially sweet for a Rams team that lost twice to their NFC West rival, including a 27-24 overtime defeat at SoFi Stadium in the regular-season finale that dropped the Rams from the No. 2 seed to No. 4.
“We just looked at being in this moment,” McVay said of the team’s six-game losing streak against the 49ers, “taking care of this game.”
