One critical missed call gave the Los Angeles Rams the break they needed to pull out a victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI on Sunday at SoFi Stadium in LA.
With 1:47 remaining in the game and the Rams down 20-16, Los Angeles was trying to reach the end zone on 3rd and goal from the 8-yard line when quarterback Matthew Stafford tried to connect with Cooper Kupp. The pass was incomplete, but a defensive holding penalty was assessed against Cincinnati.
That gave Los Angeles four more tries to score.
But what did not happen on the play would have created a very different scenario.
Multiple members of the Rams offensive line appeared to move before the snap, which should have led to a false start penalty with the play blown dead.
