While the Los Angeles Chargers have struggled delivering championship performances on the field, their social media team delivers year in and year out when it comes to its schedule release videos. The latest features a Halo theme, and it also includes a section about the New England Patriots and their head coach, Mike Vrabel.
The Patriots’ section is a race titled “Conquer the Cupcakes,” seemingly a nod to the club’s easy schedule in 2025. It later goes on to poke fun at Vrabel for the ongoing off-field
story involving himself and NFL reporter Dianna Russini.
First, there is a “Next photo dump 1 mile” sign visible. Later, a notification titled “NY Post sent you a message” pops up on screen.
The short segment ends with the Patriots crashing in the Super Bowl, and three players titled Drake “Drake Maye” Maye, BigWillie66 and FreeTheFeet13 getting eliminated. Two more players — okurrr_cardi and DaddyDiggs6 — “left the game.” The screen names are references to Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, left tackle Will Campbell and wide receiver Mack Hollins as well as singer Cardi B and her ex-boyfriend and former Patriots wideout Stefon Diggs.
Campbell, whose arm length was a topic of discussion before the draft, also seemingly is the target of the T-Rex being visible at the end of this part of the game.
The Chargers also make fun of themselves, though. The wild card round portion of the clip features a “Nothing to see here” screen. The Patriots eliminated the Chargers from that playoff round with a final score of 16-3.
The two teams will meet again in Week 12 for a Sunday night showdown.
