As we get closer to Super Bowl LVI between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals, who better to have on In The Trenches with Dave Lapham presented by First Star Logistics than two-time Super Bowl champion quarterback Phil Simms.

Simms, who currently works for CBS, gives his thoughts on why the Bengals have set a new standard in the NFL other teams will try to emulate going forward and explains why he feels the Bengals have become the new hot face of the league behind quarterback Joe Burrow and offensive standouts Joe Mixon, Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Tyler Boyd.

Can the Bengals beat the Rams? Simms gives his thoughts on why the Bengals are not just a high-powered offensive team but an undervalued defense led by Sam Hubbard and Trey Hendrickson who could help the Bengals leave SoFi Stadium hoisting the Vince Lombardi Trophy in the air.
