The Super Bowl curse

Cameron Richards, Reporter

On February 13, 2022 the Los Angeles Rams beat the Cincinnati Bengals to become Super Bowl 56 champions, but the Los Angeles Rams have not been good this season.

Since the Rams won  Super Bowl 56 in LA, they’ve been having trouble winning games. The Rams have changed a few main factors over the off-season: they lost wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr since his contract expired, they lost veteran tackle Andrew Whitworth due to retirement, but they also added veteran linebacker Bobby Wagner from the Seattle Seahawks and also added wide receiver Allen Robinson from the Chicago Bears.

The Los Angeles Rams now have a record of 4-7 after beating the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday Night Football after Quarterback Baker Mayfield led a 98 yard touchdown drive in under two minutes to win the game by one point. The Rams have been having their struggles this year with Cooper Kupp dealing with an high ankle-sprain most likely to be out the rest of the season, Matthew Stafford has a spinal cord contusion in a loss to the Seattle Seahawks and will most likely be out the rest of the year.

Hopefully the Rams can come back next season but they have the least amount of cap room since Jalen Ramsey and Aaron Donald got paid massive contract extensions last off-season.
