The NFL does a great job of controlling the calendar. Long ago, training camps began in July, the season began in September, and by Christmas two teams played in the championship game. Then, in January, there was an owner’s meeting while all the players went to their second jobs.
But now, the league has looked at the calendar and invented stuff to happen each month. The NFL is already in the hearts of its fans, but by making an event occur each and every month, this keeps the NFL in the minds of its fanbase as well.
February is the Super Bowl. March is free agency. April is the draft. May is now the schedule release.
The Cardinals ended up with 14 losses last year, yet have the third most difficult schedule going into 2026. Teams now come up with nifty videos for their own schedule presentation. Some are funny, a few are weird, others are head-scratchers, while at least a couple are full productions.
Here is every release video produced by each team on the Cardinals’ schedule this year. If you only watch one, make sure it’s the Raiders video.
