Rich comments on the Bengals’ improbable berth in the Super Bowl and says how the journey of Cincinnati QB Joe Burrow mirrors the reversal of fortune of his team, and says how the young QB’s rise resembles that of a young Tom Brady back in 2001.

Rich recaps the Rams’ win over the 49ers in the NFC Championship game and explains why the comeback was all the more impressive since it was a de facto road game because of the hoard of Niners fans in the SoFi Stadium, and reflects on how things are so very different for Matthew Stafford and Joe Burrow than they were a year ago.
