Hand them the trophy for bestNFL schedulerelease video because the Chargers just did it again.
Every year in May, the NFL treats its schedule release like a middle-school art project done on a social media budget.
But then the Chargers show up, kick the door off the hinges and remind the entire league that nobody knows internet culture and comedy better than they do.
This year’s masterpiece came wrapped inside the universe of the popular video game, Halo. It was complete with futuristic landscapes, Easter eggs hidden like cheat codes, and of course, savage shots fired at their 2026 opponents.
The jokes were enough to make NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell reach for his aspirin.
The biggest grenade, by far, landed squarely in New England.
When the Chargers video reached their Week 12 matchup against the Patriots, the same team that knocked them out of the playoffs in January, the video transformed into a full-blown parody of the ongoingMike Vrabel and Dianna Russini scandalthat has swallowed football gossip circles for weeks.
A billboard reading“Next Photo Dump 1 Mile,”referenced theongoing release of photos by our very own Page Six teamas thedrama and gossip continues to unfold. Even we got a shoutout in the video when a pop-up notification appeared on the screen reading,“NY Post sent you a message.”
When it came to the Chiefs, the Chargers unloaded the entire clip. There were “Free Rashee Rice” shirts, jokes about imprisoned superfan “ChiefsAholic,” references to biased referees, and of course, Donna Kelce’s home remodel which actually became a game location later in the season.
But, honestly, nobody was safe in this video. Not Puka Nacua, LeBron James predicting the Rams would draft Ty Simpson. Not the 49ers’ electrical substation jokes. Not the Dolphins cutting Tua Tagovailoa. Not even Bo Nix limping through Denver.
