We've ranked the best NHL mascots, and now it's time to rank the National Football League's mascots! However, to keep things concise, we're gonna focus on the American Football Conference (AFC), which consists of 14 mascots. Here are our favorite AFC mascots ranked, from worst to best!
*Please note that this ranking excludes the Chargers and Jets, as both teams don't have mascots.
Ranking the NFL's AFC Mascots:
No. 14: T-Rac (Tennessee Titans)
T-Rac is a raccoon that keeps the fans of the Tennessee Titans hyped up! He's a bit scary to look at, but we still love him.
No. 13: T.D. (Miami Dolphins)
T.D. is fun, but he looks like he belongs at a Chuck-E-Cheese, not the NFL, you know?
No. 12: Raider Rusher (Las Vegas Raiders)
Terrible. Just terrible. Like, what even is that??
No. 11: Who-Dey (Cincinnati Bengals)
Folks, there's no easy way to say this. Tony the Tiger has seen better days.
No. 10: Pat Patriot (New England Patriots)
This one's pretty cool, but it's also pretty creepy. Pat Patriot looks a little pale, now that Brady's not under center in New England.
No. 9: Steely McBeam (Pittsburgh Steelers)
Usually, these types of mascots don't work, but Steely is an exception. Steely's facial features really make this mascot come to life!
No. 8: Billy Buffalo (Buffalo Bills)
Billy Buffalo is really blue. He's beloved by Bills Mafia, and we can understand why! Billy makes a great mascot, even if he went a little overboard with the blue.
No. 7: K. C. Wolf (Kansas City Chiefs)
The goofy look works so well on Wolf. It's hard to make goofy work, even for a mascot!
No. 6: Poe (Baltimore Ravens)
Honestly, not bad. It's not amazing, but once you get past that, you can appreciate what works here!
No. 5: Jaxson De Ville (Jacksonville Jaguars)
The polka dots are sweet! Jaxson looks like a pretty crazy guy. Bonus points for the shoes, too!
No. 4: Blue (Indianapolis Colts)
Blue is iconic! Once you see him, you can't unsee him. Normally that would be an insult, but it's a compliment in this case.
No. 3: Miles (Denver Broncos)
Miles is probably the most underrated mascot in the AFC, if not the NFL. The long faces don't have much success in the mascot game, but Miles makes it work.
No. 2: Chomps & Brownie (Cleveland Browns)
These two are a package deal! This obviously isn't their everyday attire, but it was too iconic not to include!
No. 1: Toro (Houston Texans)
Toro's awesome. Everything you'll ever need in a mascot. Everything works, especially the horns!
