Welcome to the Super Bowl of NFL social media.

On Wednesday, around 8 p.m. ET, the league will release its 2021 season schedule. Simultaneously, team social media directors will publish content promoting those schedules, a process that in recent years has become ultra-competitive and, for some teams, ultra-expensive.

What reaches fans’ feeds is the culmination of months of planning and dozens of brainstorm meetings, all in hopes of producing the most creative, unique and viral content. Some teams will dive deep into memes. Some might create music videos or spoof a television show. Many will utilize their famous players. A few will spend tens of thousands of dollars, or even six figures, for a video they hope will go viral. It needs to be of the highest production value, as well as funny and unique, creative and catchy.

Now the Panthers will again turn to pop culture for their 2021 schedule release video. They settled on a concept about a month ago, and have spent the weeks since working on individual elements for each of the 17 games. Teams have known their opponents since January; they’ll only get the order of the schedule a few hours before it goes public Wednesday. Editors will frantically work to stitch the video together, while social media directors craft the perfect tweets, Instagram posts and stories they hope will make their content trend.

 .....the Panthers are the fun kids. Carolina’s recent viral moments included new quarterback Sam Darnold reacting to the many memes made of him during his three years with the Jets, and Darnold drawing — poorly — the Panthers’ logo from memory. Carolina changed its Twitter avatar to Darnold’s version last week, perhaps just a preview of something ridiculous to come in its schedule release video.

The Panthers are closely guarding their 2021 concept, and that’s not uncommon. Social media managers might have shared ideas with each other a few years ago when schedule-release videos were a new thing, but now it has become a competition to see who can be the most creative and whose video will take off on Twitter, Instagram or TikTok

Honest question? Is the schedule release really interesting to most? I can't say I look more than a few games in advance during the season. 

I usually don't get too excited about it- I pay attention because its football and by the time the schedule comes out all the Draft stuff is dying down. I think some fans are really just happy to get something football related to chew on.

If you're looking to get tickets to a game. Or see if we get any night games.

 

That make sense. I suppose that doesn't apply to me as I decide a week to two out and get tickets when I know I can go or want to go.

Would you watch a video about that or just look at the printed schedule.

The storylines are about all I care about. I want to see if they put Panthers vs. Patriots in Prime Time for Cams return.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
