Old Spice reveals which NFL Teams have the Most Swagger
Rankings Recognize Teams That Play with Swagger Week-In and Week-Out
Old Spice knows Swagger. So it is fitting that today Old Spice announced the first-ever Swagger Rankings, an index recognizing which NFL teams have the Most Swagger – a nod to the male grooming brand’s most popular scent and a highly-referred-to term denoting those who play and act with confidence.
“When it comes to Swagger, it’s not just about a winning record, it’s also about playing with confidence and a winning attitude,” said James Moorhead, Old Spice Deodorant Brand Manager. “As the official deodorant and body wash of the NFL, Old Spice knows that having Swagger gives players and teams an extra edge both on and off the field.”
To determine the 15 teams with the most Swagger, Old Spice worked with the NFL to obtain and analyze statistics from the past 3.5 years (2006 through week 9 of the 2009 season), looking at key factors that embody the definition of Swagger. The teams that topped the list scored high marks in a variety of categories:
– Red Zone Performance: Scoring and Tackling when it counts requires Swagger on both sides of the ball
– Taking Your Swagger on the Road: Winning a game while tens of thousands cheer against you requires massive amounts of Swagger
– Fourth Down Conversions: It’s fourth down. You have to have Swagger to go for it … and make it
– Gentleman’s Game: It takes a different level of Swagger to play the game by the rules and avoid penalties
– Merchandise Sales: When fans wear your team colors like a uniform, you definitely have Swagger
Old Spice Swagger Rankings:
1. Indianapolis Colts
2. Pittsburgh Steelers
3. New England Patriots
4. New Orleans Saints
5. Minnesota Vikings
6. San Diego Chargers
7. Dallas Cowboys
8. Philadelphia Eagles
9. Cincinnati Bengals
10. New York Jets
11. Denver Broncos
12. Seattle Seahawks
13. Kansas City Chiefs
14. Miami Dolphins
15. San Francisco 49ers
“For a team to consistently perform at a high level, they need to have swagger,” said ESPN Analyst, Keyshawn Johnson. “Behind the win-loss records, teams need to have confidence to always step up and deliver their best, and swagger is one of the things that fuels a championship-winning team.”

Sunday Night’s NFL matchup puts child safety on the big screen
Parents and Caregivers provided with tips to keep their young children safe
While the Colts and Patriots clash this Sunday night to see who reigns supreme in the AFC, a video targeting new parents will be playing on the big screens at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana throughout the game.
The two-minute public service announcement revolves around SuperBaby, an animated character focused on the safety of young children in the home. At the top of SuperBaby’s list is window cord safety and the ongoing campaign to make the public aware of the potential strangulation hazards of window cords.
According to information provided by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, since 1990, more than 200 infants and young children have died from accidentally strangling in window cords. The Window Covering Safety Council urges all parents and caregivers to only use cordless window products in young children’s bedrooms and sleeping areas. Owners and renters should replace all window coverings in the home made before 2001 with today’s safer products.
To maximize window-cord safety when young children are present, consumers are urged to follow these safety guidelines:
– Install only cordless window coverings in young children’s bedrooms and sleeping areas. Replace window blinds, corded shades and draperies
manufactured before 2001 with today’s safer products.
– Move all cribs, beds, furniture and toys away from windows and window cords, preferably to another wall.
– Keep all window pull cords and inner lift cords out of the reach of children. Make sure that tasseled pull cords are short and continuous-loop cords are permanently anchored to the floor or wall. Make sure cord stops are properly installed and adjusted to limit movement of inner lift cords.
– Lock cords into position whenever horizontal blinds or shades are lowered, including when they come to rest on a windowsill.
If you won’t be at Sunday’s game to see SuperBaby on the big screens in Indianapolis, you can check out the entire animated video series here. SuperBaby is brought to you by the Window Covering Safety Council (WCSC) – a non-profit organization and a coalition of major U.S. manufacturers, importers and retailers of window coverings.
