Joe Burrow, Zac Taylor were hilariously confused by The Rock's Super Bowl intro

The Super Bowl is always a spectacle in itself, so it came to the surprise of no one that Los Angeles brought out stars for its first Super Bowl since 1993.

Throughout the regular season and playoffs, the Rams had Michael Buffer address the crowd ahead of kickoff. But for Super Bowl 56, The Rock was brought in to pump up the crowd with a loud monologue at midfield in his WWE persona. Plenty of fans thought it was weird, confusing and over the top.
