Super Bowl LVI Picks and Predictions from America’s Favorite Animals
Jimmy Fallon’s Puppies | Cincinnati Bengals
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon ran their fifth puppy Super Bowl prediction and it was a close one. One puppy wore a Bengals jersey, and the other a Rams jersey. At first it seemed that the Rams were going to run away with a win. Their furry rep took an early lead, but then the Bengals’ stand-in stepped up to make it a photo-finish. What happened after reviewing the replay? The underdog won after being down in the first three-quarters. Take note live-bettors as anything can happen during the game (bet the Super Bowl live here). It ain’t over until it’s over, Rover.

Zoo Montana’s resident wolverine is the most winningest of animal kingdom Super Bowl predictors. He has an impressive 8-2 record heading into this coming Super Bowl Sunday. We’ve even speculated giving his picks more weight (2 to 1) than the other supposed experts on our annual panel. if he nails it again for Super Bowl LVI (and subsequently increase his record to 9-2 we’ll do exactly that. But let’s see how this one plays out first. So who does Sid favor? On Wednesday, when presented with two cakes, one for the Rams and one for the Bengals, we went straight for the former, choosing the Los Angeles Rams for the win.
