The Super Bowl 2022 is a few days away from starting and the Bengals vs. Rams prepare to give an attractive game to the delight of the fans of the NFL. In addition to this, the public will also be able to witness the halftime show in which great world-class artists such as Eminem and Snoop Dogg will be.

To do this, we tell you in the following note some recommendations so that you can enjoy the great event that will be televised by dozens of international networks worldwide.

THE PLAYING FIELD

A football playing field measures 120 yards, 2 blocks of 10 corresponding to scoring points and 100 in which each yard is separated by a line called the Hash Mark.

To be more precise, every 10 yards you find on the ground is numbered 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and back again, 40, 30, 20, 10.

THE TEAMS

Each team can have a maximum of 53 players for a match. However, only 11 are inside the field. Regarding the positions, it is divided as follows: quarterback, offensive line, running back and tight end, and it depends on the type of play is the personnel that is inside the field.

MATCH DURATION

Normally an NFL game lasts four quarters, each quarter of 15 minutes and a half time also has the same duration. However, despite being only 60 minutes into the game, the match may last longer.

HOW TO RECORD

You can annotate in different ways. Mostly on offense; by land or air. The team can convert and add 6 points; but for the touchdown, it can be decided by 1 or 2 points. This translates as an extra point that would be very important throughout the game.

ARE THE BENGALS OVERWHELMED BY THE SUPER BOWL?

Cincinnati Bengals coach Zac Taylor said Monday that his team is not overwhelmed by their participation in next Sunday’s Super Bowl LVI against the Los Angeles Rams.

“They are not overwhelmed, they showed it in the last two months, this is just a game for them. We have a really young team that doesn’t even see the magnitude of what we’re doing,” the coach said at a press conference.

At least seven of its star players are 27 years old or younger; Among them, his passer stands out, Joe Burrow, 25, first selection in the 2020 Draft, whom Taylor recognized as an example and guide for his teammates.

“Joe quickly learns from the experience and uses it to his advantage. He has always had a lot of confidence, that helps him set the standard for the team and when you have a quarterback like that it allows everybody to play better,” he explained.

The “coach” boasted Burrow’s maturity to respond in decisive games such as the collegiate championship he won with Louisiana State in 2019 or the AFC championship match in which Cincinnati beat the Chiefs at the end of January.

“He’s played for state championships, for the national championship, now he’s ready for the Super Bowl. He is not surprised, it is the expectation he has always dealt with. He rises to the occasion and we are happy to have him”.

The Bengals also have a trio of young receivers led by Ja’Marr Chaseo, 21, fourth in the NFL with 1,455 yards and 13 touchdowns; Tee Higgins, 23 years old, 1,091 yards and six TDs; and Tyler Boyd, 27 years old, 828 yards and five TDs.

The same in the ground attack, recharged on Joe Mixon, 25 years old, third in the league with 1,205 yards and 13 touchdowns in the season; and Samaje Perine, 26 years old. Or their kicker Evan McPherson, 22, who hasn’t failed in his 12 playoff attempts.

The secret to reaching the Super Bowl, the coach confessed, was not to saturate his boys with the past of the Bengals who had accumulated 33 years without reaching a duel for the NFL title, a game in which they will seek their first Vince Lombardi trophy in the history.

“These guys have played a lot of big games at their colleges and they know they belong on this stage. We never talked about that drought.”

WHAT TIME DOES THE HALF-TIME SHOW START – SUPER BOWL 2022

The 2022 Super Bowl halftime show kicks off after the first two quarters of the game are over, which are about 15 minutes each, but can go much longer. That means that the first half can be extended up to 90 minutes (the match usually lasts 3 hours and 12 minutes) so we can expect to see it at 19:00 in Mexico.

WHERE THE 2022 SUPER BOWL IS PLAYED

The 2022 Super Bowl will take place at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. This mythical venue will host the game between Bengals vs. Rams and also, we will be able to witness Show Time that will have great singers of the rap genre in its ranks.
