The Cincinnati Bengals made an epic comeback against Patrick Mahomes' Kansas City Chiefs, making them the dark horse of this season and surprising everyone with their level of sportsmanship.

The Cincinnati Bengals have won a trip to the Super Bowl after overtaking the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC championship title game in overtime 27 to 24.

Cincinnati hadn't won a playoff game in 31 years coming into this postseason. They've since won two. But even before the playoffs began, the Bengals knocked off the Chiefs 34-31 in Week 17.

The 2022 Super Bowl will take place at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Los Angeles County, California. Los Angeles was also the city that hosted the first Super Bowl in 1967, when the Kansas City Chiefs went against the Green Bay Packers.

Also, Super Bowl LVI will be the first to take place in Los Angeles since 1993, when the Rose Bowl was played in Pasadena, California.

Super Bowl LVI Half-time Show

Rappers Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige will be together for the first time on the improvised stage at SoFi Stadium for the 2022 Super Bowl halftime show and promises to be one of the best shows in Half-time show history.

Super Bowl LVI between the NFC's Los Angeles Rams (12-5) and the AFC's Cincinnati Bengals (10-7) is almost here. As we get ready for kickoff (6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday on NBC), let's take a look at the game by the numbers.

 The number of Super Bowls won by the Los Angeles Rams, who are 0-2 previously in the Super Bowl when representing L.A. The franchise is 1-3 overall in the Super Bowl, with its lone victory coming when the St. Louis Rams beat the Tennessee Titans in Super Bowl XXXIV.

 Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (2020) and Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (2009 by Detroit Lions) were each selected No. 1 overall. It's only the second Super Bowl meeting between QBs drafted No. 1 overall -- Super Bowl 50 saw Peyton Manning's Broncos defeat Cam Newton's Panthers.

 Joe Namath (Alabama, New York Jets) and Joe Montana (Note Dame, San Francisco 49ers) are the only starting quarterbacks to win a consensus National Championship and a Super Bowl. Burrow (LSU, Bengals) can become the third to do so -- and the first to accomplish both feats along with winning the Heisman Trophy.

 Stafford was 0-3 in the playoffs over 12 years with the Lions and is now 3-3 in the postseason following his first three playoffs games with the Rams.

 Both the Bengals and Rams are the No. 4 seeds in their conferences, making this the first time in which both Super Bowl teams are the fourth seed or lower.

 The Bengals are only the fifth team to have a rookie (Ja'Marr Chase, 1,455 yards) lead them in receiving yards and reach the Super Bowl. The previous four lost the Super Bowl.

 The Rams are 6-8 in franchise history against the Bengals.

 The Super Bowl boasts seven Pro Bowl selections: four for the Rams (WR Cooper Kupp, DT Aaron Donald, CB Jalen Ramsey, K Matt Gay), and three for the Bengals (WR Ja'Marr Chase, RB Joe Mixon, DE Trey Hendrickson).

 Though this is the first Super Bowl at SoFi Stadium, this is the eighth Super Bowl in the greater Los Angeles area, trailing only Miami (11) and New Orleans (10).

Stafford and Burrow each don jersey No. 9. It will be the fourth time in Super Bowl history that QBs wearing the same number will oppose each other.

 Only 10 defensive players have been named Super Bowl MVP. Von Miller was the last to do so with the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl 50. Miller is now with the Rams and is tied for the postseason lead with 14 QB pressures.
