What was supposed to be a celebration of the league’s best turned into a night of frustration for many football fans.

The NFL Honors ceremony, held at the Saenger Theatre in New Orleans on Thursday, received harsh reviews, with viewers questioning the event’s overall execution.

Snoop Dogg’s Hosting Fails to Impress

With rapper Snoop Dogg taking on hosting duties, many expected a night filled with fun and entertainment.

However, his monologue fell flat, with jokes that failed to land.

Compared to last year’s host, comedian Keegan-Michael Key, Snoop’s humor didn’t resonate, leading fans to express their disappointment online.

A Production Filled with Errors and Awkward Moments

Unlike other professional sports leagues that announce their award winners through a simple press release, the NFL continues to present its accolades with a full-scale ceremony.

However, the execution felt chaotic, with numerous technical errors, poorly timed stage exits, and an overall lack of polish that made the event difficult to watch.

Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld’s PDA Wasn’t Enough to Save the Show

One of the few moments that briefly caught fans’ attention was Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld sharing a rare public display of affection.

The Buffalo Bills quarterback and the actress were seen holding hands and exchanging kisses, but their sweet moment wasn’t enough to distract from the night’s shortcomings.

Fans Take to Social Media to Vent Their Frustrations

Viewers were quick to voice their opinions, calling out the production quality, hosting choice, and overall event mismanagement.

Some of the harshest comments included:

“The quality of this NFL Honors is absolutely embarrassing. How do they air this with pride?”
“Whoever produced this should be fired. Wrong names on the screen, awkward stage exits, and they even spoiled a Hall of Fame nod!”
“Snoop Dogg should never host another awards show.”
“This is hands down the worst-produced NFL Honors ever.”
“Snoop’s jokes are painful. This is rough to watch.”
“Just announce the winners and move on. No one needs this.”

Josh Allen Takes Home MVP Amid the Chaos

Despite the production blunders, the awards themselves still mattered.

Josh Allen won the night’s biggest honor, narrowly beating Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson for the NFL MVP title.

His win was one of the few bright spots in an otherwise disappointing evening.

One Joke That Actually Landed

While most of Snoop Dogg’s humor missed the mark, one joke did manage to get a genuine reaction.

He made a playful jab at former NFL head coach Bill Belichick and his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, who were in attendance.

It was one of the rare moments that brought some laughter.

Will the NFL Make Changes Next Year?

Next year’s Super Bowl will take place at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, but will the NFL take the criticism of the Honors ceremony seriously?

With overwhelming backlash from fans, the league may need to reconsider its approach—perhaps bringing in a seasoned comedian to host instead of a musician.

Whether they make adjustments or stick to their usual format remains to be seen, but fans have made their disappointment clear.
