Who is the NFL (social media) champion?
The Super Bowl for NFL content teams has arrived with the 2024 schedule release. Rather than just let the league announce the schedule in a simple format, all teams go above and beyond to release intricate, dramatic and hilarious videos. These videos often go viral, and as a result, every team is trying to claim the title of best schedule release video. The Los Angeles Chargers were last year's winner after they did another epic anime release. Will they repeat as champions, or will another team get to claim the title?
Here is our rankings for the 2024 schedule release videos:
32. Arizona Cardinals

— Arizona Cardinals (@AZCardinals) May 16, 2024
Cool art, but barely put any effort after putting none last year. Enjoy last place again.
31. Denver Broncos

— Denver Broncos (@Broncos) May 16, 2024
Lewis Hamilton is a big name but do we care to see him try food? Not really.
30. New York Giants
“Do you know what a schedule release video is?” pic.twitter.com/DqfeOBSFHT
— New York Giants (@Giants) May 15, 2024
The man on the street interviews can provide randomness, but this was just boring.
29. Miami Dolphins
The NFL’s fastest schedule release, brought to you by the NFL’s fastest team. 😎 pic.twitter.com/5jHcUUwLAc
— Miami Dolphins (@MiamiDolphins) May 16, 2024
It’s clever to play on Tyreek Hill’s speed. Too bad it means the video is barely anything.
28. Seattle Seahawks
Every power has an origin story. pic.twitter.com/XXreXbdDvA
— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks) May 15, 2024
Clearly some people are not good at acting.
27. New Orleans Saints

Solid idea, just missing laughs.
26. Green Bay Packers
Who signed off on this?@bookseatscom pic.twitter.com/LE9xwwlykw
— Green Bay Packers (@packers) May 16, 2024
The plot didn’t really make sense.
25. Minnesota Vikings
The next generation of #Vikings schedules is here!https://t.co/UeiFxRs60a pic.twitter.com/RTpkaEmlLF
— Minnesota Vikings (@Vikings) May 16, 2024
The Vikings did a great job at showing how ridiculous the release videos have gotten. It was extra but generated some laughs.
24. Las Vegas Raiders
No gimmicks. #RaiderNation pic.twitter.com/douAkUnZwH
— Las Vegas Raiders (@Raiders) May 16, 2024
Cool hype video, nothing special. Could’ve said it for the pregame jumbotron.
23. Detroit Lions
We hired a couple Detroiters to help us unveil this year’s schedule@ticketmaster pic.twitter.com/5DpHhcqp7X
— Detroit Lions (@Lions) May 16, 2024
Tim Robinson and Sam Richardson are great comedians, it’s a shame they felt held back.
22. Los Angeles Rams
5 o'clock on the dot, we're in our (schedule) drop top pic.twitter.com/oWuELM27wR
— Los Angeles Rams (@RamsNFL) May 16, 2024
Animations were on point.
21. Cincinnati Bengals
Tell mom to throw the pizza rolls in... THE SCHEDULE IS HERE!!! pic.twitter.com/3iFn3BCpbC
— Cincinnati Bengals (@Bengals) May 16, 2024
Mascots vs. kids matchups are always hilarious. Wish we got actual hits.
20. Indianapolis Colts
Drawn up to perfection. 🖍️

Cute video and got kids getting creative.
19. San Francisco 49ers
And now a message from Nick Bosa 😂@Steph49K | @Ticketmasterhttps://t.co/c0NW44RI7D pic.twitter.com/Db4RTewe4K
— San Francisco 49ers (@49ers) May 16, 2024
Yes Nick Bosa, you do really sound like that.
18. Houston Texans
Our schedule release ASMR 🤘 pic.twitter.com/4vSwVBsnXU
— Houston Texans (@HoustonTexans) May 16, 2024
Hydraulic press videos are very soothing.
17. Kansas City Chiefs
In honor of crushing it last season, we’re revealing our 2024 schedule by… well, you know. pic.twitter.com/hVpI4GQNlN
— Kansas City Chiefs (@Chiefs) May 16, 2024
They also did the hydraulic press, but the references were better than the Texans.
16. Cleveland Browns
hate us or love us, you'll watch

— Cleveland Browns (@Browns) May 16, 2024
Pretty basic bowling shenanigans. They got the legend Pete Weber to boost it at the end.
15. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Curated For The Krewe 🎨
The Buccaneers '24 schedule is here. pic.twitter.com/mecF0WCeGY
— Tampa Bay Buccaneers (@Buccaneers) May 16, 2024
This was a good one for the Buccaneers diehards, with some sick pieces of art.
14. New York Jets
This guy almost dumped it on @AreYouKiddingTV for our 2024 Schedule Release Challenge #ad pic.twitter.com/qDaOItgt8h
— New York Jets (@nyjets) May 16, 2024
AreYouKiddingTV does good segments, and the rush of people trying to get free stuff will always be hilarious.
13. Baltimore Ravens
There was only one man Harbs trusted for the job… @stavvybaby@SeatGeek | 📺: @nflnetwork pic.twitter.com/3a9OfunYK0
— Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) May 16, 2024
Stavros Halkias is hilarious. Getting another team’s head coach to cameo is worth extra points (Petition for John Harbaugh to legally be John Harbaw).
12. Chicago Bears
The season moves pretty fast.
If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. pic.twitter.com/MpXMPEcTD6
— Chicago Bears (@ChicagoBears) May 16, 2024
Chicago really does have some actors, and Spice Adams is born to be on the big screen.
11. Jacksonville Jaguars
To Me, My Jaguars! 💥@Dream_Finders | #DUUUVAL
— Jacksonville Jaguars (@Jaguars) May 16, 2024
X-Men will forever be cool.
10. Buffalo Bills
It’s a simple life for @JoshAllenQB across the street.@Ticketmaster | #BillsMafia pic.twitter.com/PEgQEzzOL3
— Buffalo Bills (@BuffaloBills) May 16, 2024
Josh Allen is naturally hilarious, and it’s great that you can actually picture him living at a construction site.
9. Washington Commanders
Whipped up something sweet for schedule release 🎂
🎟️ https://t.co/1MtIrnqvuP | @SeatGeek | 📺 @nflnetwork pic.twitter.com/KaDZZkSeBz
— Washington Commanders (@Commanders) May 16, 2024
Cake or not cake is a hard guessing game to play, and mixing it with the schedule was a great combo.
8. Carolina Panthers
We like it, Picasso 👨🎨@Ticketmaster | #KeepPounding pic.twitter.com/0s3aVcQMEf
— Carolina Panthers (@Panthers) May 16, 2024
Good thing these guys are athletes and not artists, but A+ for effort and making fun of your teammates. Xavier Legette is a gem.
7. Tennessee Titans
Back on Broadway with some help from a friend 🤣

— Tennessee Titans (@Titans) May 16, 2024
The concept was a hit last year. Wasn’t as funny this time around but some funny team names in there.
6. Dallas Cowboys
🎶 The Cowboys called, seen you on Facetime 🎶
We prank called our opponents' fans for our 2024 schedule release 📲

The random FaceTime call is a great trend, and the Cowboys got some big names with stunned reactions.
5. Atlanta Falcons
ATL Streets Vol. ’24@NFL Schedule Release @NFLNetwork | NFL+ pic.twitter.com/Co46Sbhec8
— Atlanta Falcons (@AtlantaFalcons) May 16, 2024
NFL Street was such an epic game, and the Falcons got so many good disses.
4. Pittsburgh Steelers
No joke. Our 2024 schedule is here. @laurelhighlands | @jharrison9292 | 📺: Schedule release coverage on NFLN pic.twitter.com/okiDg2L4XR
— Pittsburgh Steelers (@steelers) May 16, 2024
Who doesn’t love dad jokes? Apparently James Harrison, who didn’t budge at some corny punchlines.
3. Philadelphia Eagles
Eagles fans: slightly unhinged@Ticketmaster | #FlyEaglesFly pic.twitter.com/RxEDJ8xlQX
— Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) May 16, 2024
Glad the Eagles know how unhinged their fans are. Their ruthlessness is amazing.
2. New England Patriots
Do you like schedules? pic.twitter.com/xxNTeCxFvv
— New England Patriots (@Patriots) May 16, 2024
Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski together is already a must watch. Then they play on “Good Will Hunting” and they make comedy gold. Give someone an Oscar.
1. Los Angeles Chargers
should we REALLY make our schedule release video in the sims?

They’ve done it again. The Chargers used Sims to perfection, and whether it was dissing Taylor Swift’s private jet or Harrison Butker in the kitchen, they cooked.A dynasty is here.
