Super Bowl ads this year might be a snooze

So the firm got real personal and came up with Super Bowl Babies because, sometimes, in an overabundance of enthusiasm, babies arrive about nine or so months after fans’ teams win the big game.

We’re still six days away from Super Bowl Sunday, and I’ve already found my favorite commercial for this year’s big game.

In addition, the NFL and Buzzfeed will launch the “Are You A Super Bowl Baby?” quiz on Tuesday so fans of all 19 Super Bowl winning teams have the opportunity to discover whether they are part of this football family.

The NFL released the commercial on YouTube in an attempt to “recreate one of the greatest love songs of all time to celebrate the greatest game of all time”.

Seal himself also makes an appearance in the ad.

It’s part of the league’s “Football Is Family” campaign, the one that was so eviscerated recently by NBC’s Bob Costas. Chrysler is expected to advertise also at the Super Bowl 50, but has not revealed any plans yet. The Super Bowl airs February 7 on CBS at 6:30 p.m. EST.

The NFL worked with the eight clubs to find Babies spanning decades, including the Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers, Indianapolis Colts, New York Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
