Tony Dungy Compares Bengals' Locker Room Culture to Past Super Bowl Winners

Cincinnati is one win away from their first World Championship.

CINCINNATI — The Bengals play the Rams in Super Bowl LVI on Sunday in Los Angeles. 

Hall of Fame head coach and NBC Sports analyst Tony Dungy interviewed multiple players last week ahead of the big game. 

Dungy praised the culture and the energy at Paul Brown Stadium following his trip to Cincinnati. 

"I was there Wednesday doing interviews in Cincinnati with Bengals players and coaches for our pregame show and I sensed it. I felt it," Dungy said on the Bengals Booth Podcast. "I felt the same thing four years ago when we had the Eagles. I was at the Eagles for four days and I said 'man, these guys. This is a different vibe. And I really came away impressed with Philadelphia and I had the same impression with these young men. All they talked about was Coach (Zac) Taylor and how he'd brought winners in, how he brought unselfish guys in and I'll tell you what, in that day I really, really  felt in that day that there is a strong winning culture in Cincinnati."

The Bengals' locker room culture is as strong as it's ever been. They have a good mix of young talent on offense, combined with proven veterans on defense. 

Listen to Hoard and Lapham's entire conversation with Dungy below.
