NFL teams dropped their 2025-2026 schedules on Wednesday, and as has become tradition in these social media-captivated times, most did so via clever and highly produced videos starring a few big names from the teams.
It is becoming a great tradition and good-natured competition, but this year, the undisputed winner for schedule release video is the Baltimore Ravens, hands down, no need for the refs to review the call, and we will not be taking questions.
USA Today’s For The Win indicates other teams’ approaches involved video game send-ups, cute children, original rap songs, and more. Valiant efforts, all, but nothing nailed the cultural zeitgeist like the Ravens announcing their schedule via their own mini-episode of the Apple TV show “Severance.”
The Ravens began working on the idea in February and started filming on NFL Draft weekend what would end up being more than 200 hours of film. Sixteen players participated, as did general manager Eric DeCosta, head coach John Harbaugh, and other members of the front office. Players included Tyler Lindenbaum, Kyle Hamilton, Charlie Kolar, Zach Orr, and first-round rookie Malaki Starks.
This team is undefeated, and the season has not even started. Even Severance’s creator, Ben Stiller, gave his seal of approval, as did NFL Canada.

Even our friends/rivals around the Beltway gave us a round of applause!
When the man himself gives the goat sign? We know we already won.
