The Los Angeles Rams are in Super Bowl 56 which, of course, is being played Sunday in Los Angeles.
Normally one would think that being at home for the Super Bowl would be pretty nice and might give you an advantage because it would be easier for more of your fans to get into the highly priced game.
The Rams, however, have had some tough times getting homefield advantage at SoFi Stadium. 49ers fans made it their home in Week 18 and then again in the NFC Championship Game. Those crowds have made it easy for some people to make fun of Rams fans for struggling to fill their own stadium.
Well, this week in Los Angeles I talked to Rams legend Eric Dickerson about the team’s fanbase and how it has taken some time for them to buy into the franchise after it returned from St. Louis. Dickerson said the fans are coming back but explained why LA is still a Raiders town right now.
You can watch that here:

He also gave us his Super Bowl prediction, while taking some funny shots at the old Bengals and Browns teams:
