The annual NFL schedule release is only partly about the actual dates and matchups becoming known so fans can start planning for the upcoming season.
Over time, it has morphed into a fun night where (usually) under-appreciated social media and marketing teams get a chance to flex their creative muscles and put out quirky, entertaining and funny videos.

While the Chargers once again wowed with an elaborate Anime-style video, it was the Tennessee Titans who stole the show. The social team went out to Broadway in Nashville, asking people to identify the logo of the Titans opponents for the upcoming season. Things … went amazingly.
We asked people on Broadway to help us with our 2023 schedule release. 🤣

Let’s rank all the very wrong answers from funny to downright incredible.
The Texan Texans
Actually SO close to being right!
The Atlanta Florida Dolphins
Oh, you almost had it.
The North Carolina Tigers
Right area, wrong large jungle cat.
The St. Louis Rams
Real team (that moved out of St. Louis years ago), wrong logo.
The Bulls? Patriots?
Honestly, I see it.
The Boston Bobcats
LOL. New Bengals name, honestly.
Just the Football Logo
Ok, but are they wrong?
Eagles Eagles Eagles (From Pittsburgh)
She was SO enthusiastically wrong on this one, I loved it.
The Baltimore Orioles
Has anyone told the Orioles they 1. have to play football and 2. that it’s in London this fall?
Actually Does Not Exist
She may be on to something here.
The Red Stallions
It’s the whole combo that works. Not only is that a bird in the picture, stallions don’t make a growling noise like the woman did after confidently saying the very wrong name. At least the Atlanta Falcons have embraced it.
The Cowboys
The absolute enthusiasm and boldness with which BOTH groups answered Cowboys for the Colts logo is what has this so high. Incredible work.
Lightning McQueen
The way she said it was so lovely.
Chester Cheeto
Perfect answer, no notes.
Pirates From the Islands of the Caribbean
This just continues to make me laugh.
49ers 69ers Stars?
The question mark after stars really sells it for me.
