Today is National Puppy Day, the day where anyone and everyone is encouraged to post a picture of their dog or puppy online so that we may all bask in the glory of cuteness for a good twenty-four hours.
Given that there are few things that are more adorable than animals dressed like people, many NFL teams asked fans and players to tweet them pictures of their dogs wearing team gear. The results were unsurprisingly heart-meltingly amazing.
The only team who seemed very much against the idea of celebrating puppies was the Carolina Panthers, who are obviously Team Cat.
Happy #NationalPuppyDay!
Yes, that's a baby Panther. We prefer cats. pic.twitter.com/RvCOjXeRhy

Flip on through the slideshow for some of the best NFL-related photos to come out of National Puppy Day (although, to be honest, every single dog is a winner in our eyes).
