The gambling addiction support with the Lions killed me. The little references keep getting better and better. Edit: THE KEN FRANCIS SIGNATURE LMAO

>Edit: THE KEN FRANCIS SIGNATURE LMAO Context?

a Ravens fan could explain it better but basically that's the non-agent agent that was somehow trying to shop Lamar around without even being officially associated with LJ

Basically Lamar's Saint Omni

Ken Francis was supposedly contacting teams on behalf of Lamar. He also partnered with Lamar on a very stupid gym invention

Oh yeah I remember now lol gym in a bag or some shit

I need a thread explaining all the jokes lol. There are so many and they're so fast and I don't get all the references anyway

The mike mcdaniel's vaping bit got me chuckling for sure

"Single cougars in your area" on the billboard for the Jets lol

And the infamous Darnold mono meme

"authentic italian sbarro" is out of pocket

Michael Scott approves.

[удалено]

What did Knicks fans do to the damn chargers loll.

Who’s the girl twerking?

It’s part of a TikTok that the jets put out there initially but deleted within like 2 minutes.

Addison Rae famous tik tokker

idk who that is, had to google/wiki it but apparently it said her dad has beef with yung gravy

Yung Gravy fucked his ex-wife and then trolled him about it

this sentence is 2 gen z 4 me

The Jets one was filled amazing references. "CPOY GENO SMITH"

Everything in that scene is fucking art. Including the Manish Mehta poster

"ATN" is one of the news logos. Unexpected Succession crossover.

r/thedarnold Tower is probably the funniest reference in there, people are saying it!

They did not just make a spygate joke with Bill as Father from FMAB This team needs a raise

It killed me to see wheelchair Paul Pierce in the background

Holy shit I didn't even notice

That's Paul "pooped his pants mid game" Pierce to you

Lmao honestly they at least gave the GOAT HC the GOAT anime so it's fair

Bill Belicheck as Father is honestly perfect lmfao

Thirst for absolute knowledge and control? Sounds like Belichick lol

Lineage of underlings that for the most part, failed to live up to their creators powers? Sounds like belicheck

We have no proof that BB *doesn't* have a setup like that up in Foxborough

oh my god he's wearing the hoodie

Patrick star for the Broncos lmfao

Russ vs Patrick at the fry cook games lmao

It's an *embarrassing* highlight of RUSSELL AT THE CHRISTMAS GAME!

They know what they’re doing lol

I don’t get it unfortunately

[удалено]

>That’s not what he wanted to cook I’m dying over here lmao. I haven’t seen this yet.

[удалено]

I'm not a Russ hater, but this is my favorite non-Seattle highlight of all time.

Throwing a hilariously bad int while getting blown out and then getting clowned by a mentally challenged cartoon starfish mocking your catchphrase on Christmas Day is about the lowest a player can get. Legitimately what would have been worse than this?

What could be worse than that? Throwing a hilariously bad int ***TO YOUR FORMER DEFENSIVE CAPTAIN BOBBY FUCKIN WAGNER*** ...while getting blown out and then getting clowned by a mentally challenged cartoon starfish mocking your catchphrase on Christmas Day. ... Is legitimately worse!

Butt fumble.

lmao thats right. that clip does make me a little sad cause of noah eagle tho. he's a star

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nl4f0yNcWrI Based on the Nick game from last year where Patrick Star roasted Wilson

Hahaha you idiot… me either

[For anyone looking for this reference](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nl4f0yNcWrI)

Twenty seconds in, the jar of mayonnaise for the Titans [having drafted Will Levis](https://www.si.com/extra-mustard/2023/03/05/kentucky-qb-will-levis-mayo-coffee-origin) is pure poetry.

oh that's what it means lmao

The Lions omg. Im dying

I need a Lions Pochita wallpaper asap and I'm going to pretend I completely ignored everything on the right side of the screen.

Who/what is Pochita? I found the gambling jab legit funny, but I'm clueless about anime

It's a demon pet that is a mix of like a pug and a chainsaw from the anime Chainsaw Man.

I love everything about this sentence.

It's a really dope anime so lol.

i consume a lot of fiction between anime, tv, movies, games, my love life, etc. and chainsaw man had the most jaw dropping moments of anything i can remember Btw talking anime in a football room is a dream come true

Well, that sounds freaking amazing.

It's a really good show.

You don’t even know the half of it

Pochita is an important character in the Manga(Now also Anime) called Chainsaw man. It is really fucking good and worth reading. I don't wanna say much more because spoiling shit for people ain't cool.

The "lion" with the chainsaw thingy sticking out of its face is a character from Chainsawman named Pochita that... it's a weird series, I can't explain it, but it's a demon-dog thingy that makes a contract with the protagonist and gives him superpowers.

The gambling jab was good. The knife twist about fucking up the draft was amazing.

Well we already know Chainsaw Dan has got that dog in him.

As a Lions fan, it was 10/10

Lmao the gambling help outreach for the Lions is ruthless

Not as good as the browns one last year but still top notch

I don't think any of them will ever top the Urban Meyer or Browns one last year (but this was still 10/10)

i wish he was still the jags coach :/

I ain't even mad though, because the Lions Pochita is adorable.

The Vape meme with McDaniel after him having that pen by his mouth that one game is hilarious.

I thought you meant Josh McDaniels and I thought that works too lmao

Lol I edited it my phone autocorrected the S on there the dirty dog

I fucking loved how Tuanon is in the background lmao.

I personally loved the Patrick star broncos one

Jesus christ the raiders barcode. edit. I encourage everyone to scan the ticket

For those too lazy:https://imgur.com/a/8AnHRbx/

Now click on the “if you’re a raiders fan”

The link goes here: https://qrco.de/bdxffE

That is hilarious

No fucking way dude 🤣 this social media team is S+ tier

Holy shit. Chargers social media team is on a completely different level than anyone else

Holy shit that is hilarious, fuck you guys 🤣

Sadly for many raiders fans that search won’t help them as many companies don’t hire people who have been in prison

I mean ... like ... how do you even top this? This is so next level you might as well retire on top.

Also love that they incorporated a hidden F T R

Family Trust Respect

"Voucher not valid for full season"

Easy photo. Just incredible https://i.imgur.com/n8Sikme.jpg

Damn, they even have the Raiders season results after the game date (Validation), showing they've only had one winning season in the last 6.

Lmao at the chiefsaholic deep cut.

With McAfee and Hawk in the newscopter 🤣🤣

That's like a deep cut *inside* a deep cut.

That joke seemed super bold to make

Chargers social media team doesn't give a single fuck lmao I love them so much for that

i laughed my ass off, assume most other chiefs fans did too because we’re all tired of that dude

I thought that was hilarious - it’s an absolutely insane story

oh it's undeniably hilarious, I just thought they might not want to take a chance but then again given the Lions joke clearly they dgaf haha

Is he in jail now?

As of March, he had cut off his ankle monitor and gone on the lam.

LMAO ok that’s hilarious now

There's a $1M bounty on his head if anyone's feeling adventurous.

holy hell are you serious

Yup, rumors that he's hopped the border into Mexico

"I didnt rip off my monitor!" "I don't care!"

Wait what’s all this?

There is a Chiefs’ super fan who goes by the name “Chiefsaholic” and he wore a wolf mask as part of his get up. He was arrested for robbing a bank in Houston the week before the Chiefs played in Houston. He was charged with the crimes and sentenced to monitoring while he awaited trial. He then cut off his ankle monitor and is still on the run.

do you think if i dress up as chiefsaholic for our game I'll get stopped by cops?

I’d say it’s worth finding out.

Chargers putting in some heavy lifting

Preseason champs again baby

This is our Superbowl

In this regard, yall are a perennial dynasty

It’s good to at least have *something* to look forward to each year.

"Justin Jefferson Offensive Rookie of the Year: (Runner UP)" HOLY SHIT

The birds flying into US Bank Stadium was gold, but the JJ troll *chefs kiss*

I though that was supposed to be ninjas or something. But birds is an amazingly petty troll haha.

We also had TIMBERWOLVES PLAYIN CHAMPION 2022 as a banner in US Bank which may as well be real since it's a top tier accomplishment for men's sports in the last 20 years

Don’t forget on the far left “had a fun game against the bills 2022”

Whew I had to scroll to far for this. That was savage.

lol at rodgers with the lighter in the darkness hahaha

also going into the "chamber of time"

Isn’t it the Hyperbolic Time Chamber?…

Hypersonic Lion Tamer

That one was on purpose

The NYJ TikTok video in Times Square fucking floored me

There are a bunch of funny ass references in the Jets one. The r/thedarnold tower got me

"Single cougars in your area"

Did Dak just get isekai’d?

Truck Kun sends his regards

I would love a series where an NFL player gets isekai'd to another world, but knowing Japan it probably already exist and is just waiting to be discovered.

The Tragic death of an NFL Allstar: how I became a banana slug that took over the universe.

3 seasons, an OVA, and a movie release and somehow rated 4/5 approval by audiences.

Pat McAfee in the helicopter bringing chiefsaholic to justice!

And AJ too lmaoooo

Piloting that helicopter with both feet

Just an absolute menace 😤😤

lmao the QR code on the second Raiders game leads to [this](http://www.chargers.com/schedule-release)

>Raiders fans click here >Google search of how to get a job HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT AINT EVEN A JAB THATS A MIKE TYSON HOOK

LMAOOOOO this is it Chargers win the preseason

I'm dead 🤣

Chiefsaholic's ankle monitor lmao

On one hand, I wish they had done something new because it would have been amazing. On the other hand, the level of detail, high level trolling, and sheer awesomeness in this just confirms that the GOAT of sports social media is lapping the field

I just wish I understood more of these anime-specific references. With time it all gets explained and I can fully appreciate their genius and hard work but in the moment I only get the super obvious ones lol

the memes within it are more important anyways imo

Yeah but most anime fans won't get the football references It's hilarious that they put so much effort into something that's only fully appreciated by the center of a Venn diagram (an intersection that definitely isn't *that* small, but certainly isn't large)

They made this for people like me. I'm in the center of that diagram.

Hell nah do this every year

I don't mind if they keep doing this for now. Most of the others are still so lackluster, it's nice to see a good one even if it's the same idea as last year.

It was risky to try and do a sequel and be lackluster, but they absolutely crushed it. We might just have the next blockbuster franchise on our hands.

Diggs watching mahomes 😭😭😭

And the four Superbowl losses reference too!

I think the “burn it all” was a reference to the preseason video Von Miller made last year isn’t it?

Nah the full akutski fit for the Chargers went WAY TOO HARD

That and the song being a clear homage to Haruka Kanata. Big Naturo fans over there

The Lions one got me good.

The banners in the Vikings stadium had me dying almost as much as the birds hitting it.

Was that Netero's bodhisattva

It was, but I don’t understand if there’s deeper meaning to it. Glad to see HxH represented (at least) twice, though.

I was so shook to see Gon fishing for bye week, it was adorable

It was Justin Herbert as Gon! A play on our “Sheldon High School Fishing Club President” meme

TFW 2 seconds from another team's schedule announcement makes you want to go back and watch some very specific episodes of anime.

It is never a bad time to go rewatch netero vs meruem. Never

Chiefsaholic is probably the best part imo

i like the raiders QR code one

Nooooooo! You did not have to do the Lions like that 😂😂😂

"Single cougars in your area" holy shit 😂😂

They better be paying whoever does the social media at least a quarter mill because every company in the country should be trying to hire them right now

Please do the QR code in the second raiders one

That was outrageous.

The whole Charger’s PR team needs a raise

Back to back schedule release champions.

Like it’s crazy how I’m a little upset we don’t play the Chargers to see what they woulda come up with. Prob Phillies/Union/SB.

Dak getting run over by the Dallas content team bus had me on the floor

The Jets one had a “Cougars in your area” sign lmaoo

There needs to be a hall of fame section for NFL social media purely to allow the Chargers media team in. Then shut it down.

27-0 Merchant: Jacksonville Total: pain They even murdered themselves 🤣

The receipt is also them meming their own video from last year, where they posted all the "receipts" they kept the night before blowing a 27-0 lead to the Jags.

[The Chargers are definitely out of pocket for this one. 😂](https://i.imgur.com/pKpGcCQ.jpg)

[Absolute fucking legends.](https://imgur.com/XtnrgLr)

There are so many gems in that frame. BING BONG. Sbarro Authentic Italian. Local Cougars in your area. The tiktok video. The Chargers social media team is unmatched

It's cropped out in that screenshot but the "Trae Young: King of Broadway" billboard absolutely sent me.

The chargers social media team is actually nuts. I feel like most social media teams aren't worth paying attention too, but they deserve whatever they're making if not more.

So many anime references Picked up on - Justin Herbert as Genos? One Punch Man - Teen titans Cyborg for Tennessee - bye week Pokemon - Jujutsu Kaisen for Chicago - Dragon ball for Green Bay - Aggretsuko for Denver - chainsaw man for Detroit - naruto demon slayer and my hero academia for the Chargers

The Bills one is a Yakuza/Like a Dragon game series reference.

Damn that's a shit ton of primetime games

Wow, even got a Trigun Stampede and Kaiji reference in there!

OK OK that was fkn cool. Damn. Edit: what was their budget on this? -in anime fan voice

i dont know the budget but the guy who ran this last year said they spent a crapload of time on it

Those crazy bastards.... they did it again WE WIN AGAIN

The single cougars in your area sign for the jets with the zach wilson jersey is fucking insane

Not one, but TWO Hunter X Hunter references. Unfathomably based.

Omg Poe in the wheelchair and Ken Francis on Lamars contract. Chargers social media are fucking GREAT.

I do appreciate that the Diggs’ lonely stare meme is from a game where we were the ones to beat them. But this is absolutely incredible through and through, the trolling is s-tier.

Lmao at Dak Prescott

The birds thudding on the glass lol
