Sharing holiday cards with family, friends and colleagues is an annual tradition around the world. The [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] community is certainly no exception.

While most corporate cards can be boring and devoid of personality, teams in the NFL always manage to capture the essence of the holidays with their seasonal greetings.

Through spirited sleuthing and yuletide gumption, we have collected and compiled the good tidings from every NFL team to share with you.

These are in no way just ideas that [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and I thought up in an egg-nog-infused brainstorming session that preceded five days of merry Photoshopping. These are as real as the fat red man stuck in your chimney.

Good tidings from us to you. Let's get to the cards.





NFC East: New York Giants



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Giants fans will be wishing for the same thing again this Christmas.




Washington Redskins



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


What a difference a year, and a player, can make for the spirit of a city.




Dallas Cowboys



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Be honest, if Jerry hasn't had Santa sit on his lap and ask for things every year, he will now.




Philadelphia Eagles



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


With [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] dressed like Santa, the Eagles' holiday party had all the merriment of a Monday press conference.




NFC North: Green Bay Packers



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


A question Josh Zerkle posed: Is there an NFL superstar who would be more likely than [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] to give up the game to become a dentist?

There is not.




Chicago Bears



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


There isn't enough bubble wrap in the world to protect [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] down the stretch.




Minnesota Vikings



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


In Minnesota, Purple Jesus maybe be giving the other guy a run for his money this holiday season.




Detroit Lions



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


It was an accident, Santa. A total accident.




NFC South: Atlanta Falcons



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


I believe Santa, the Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy are in cahoots with all this delicious holiday candy. That's what I believe.




Tampa Bay Buccaneers



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


I admire playing to the final whistle.

I have a tendency to give up earlier and earlier each year. The nice thing is that eventually, I'll just stop trying altogether. That's a resolution I can keep.




New Orleans Saints



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


While probably a better visual, a flaming pile of canine excrement would be a logistical nightmare to ship.




Carolina Panthers



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


I would pay to see inside Cam Newton's closet. I bet he has a dozen sweaters just like this.




NFC West: San Francisco 49ers



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


There is no truth to the rumor that Colin Kaepernick is changing his last name to Smith this Christmas.




Seattle Seahawks



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Right now, based on the NFC standings, the Seahawks would make the playoffs and the Packers would miss out on a bye and home-field advantage in the NFC Divisional round. Maybe the Packers are the ones who should be sending coal to Roger Goodell.

There is still hope that if the Seahawks do make the playoffs, they will have to travel to Green Bay on Wild Card Weekend. Call it a Christmas wish.




St. Louis Rams



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


When a mustache starts to gray, can we call it "[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]" too?




Arizona Cardinals



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


September has never seemed further away.




AFC East: New England Patriots



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Highest. Scoring. Christmas. Party. Ever.




New York Jets



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Tebow was the savior in Denver last year, so we needed to change it up. I do wonder, however, if Jesus would need a headset to talk to the man—ahem—upstairs.




Buffalo Bills



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


There is no truth to the rumor that this is Chan Gailey's handwriting.




Miami Dolphins



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


I have actually never seen a Hanukkah bush in real life, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. Somewhere in Miami, there's a community center where a dozen old Jews are arguing over who gets to put the Star of David atop this year's shrub.

Imagining that makes me want to find a bunch of old Jews and play dreidel. I can't wait to get old.




AFC North: Baltimore Ravens



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Now that Cam Cameron is home for the holidays and Jim Caldwell is taking over the offense, will Joe Flacco become more or less elite?

In a related note, hand the damn ball off to Ray Rice, Jim. Happy Holidays.




Pittsburgh Steelers



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


The pony would probably line up for the Steelers and get hurt this year too.




Cincinnati Bengals



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


A Christmas tree made of books is really neat and inspiring.

Can someone print and bind the Internet so we can get started on our tree?




Cleveland Browns



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Cleveland is like the Charlie Brown of major American sports cities. Nice tree, though.




AFC South: Houston Texans



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


The Texans will go as far as Arian Foster and J.J. Watt can take them.

Sadly, that may not be past New England this year, if their recent matchup proves to have been a visit from the Ghost of Christmas Playoffs' Future.




Indianapolis Colts



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Are the Colts lucky, good, or both? This year, Luck sure has made them look good.




Tennessee Titans



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


The cookies do look delicious.




Jacksonville Jaguars



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Zerkle and I laughed about this one for about 30 minutes. MJD as Tiny Tim is truly inspired. I'm not sure who is bringing the goose though.




AFC West: Denver Broncos



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Twelve million pizzas. No, a billion pizzas. Free pizzas for a lifetime for everyone in Denver.

Merry Christmas!




San Diego Chargers



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


A.J. Smith would turn into a cubic zirconia.




Oakland Raiders



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


I suppose there could be worse gifts this year for Raiders fans than Carson Palmer. Like, say, the worst defense in the NFL.




Kansas City Chiefs



[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Good will to men...and women.
