A little over a week ago, the NFL, apparently panicking from plummeting ratings, threatened to fine official team accounts for sharing any sort of videos or GIFs on their social media accounts (though the league may have quietly loosened some of those new rules after the backlash).
Sources from two teams told Mashableearlier this month they feel the new policy is meant to limit the creativity of what teams can do online during games in order to drive attention and eyeballs to official NFL accounts, as opposed to social accounts operated by franchises.
Since the NFL's new rules include even non-game-related GIFs, who knows how long these posts will actually stay up or if the Browns and Eagles will just take the fine. Either way, fans liked it.

No word if the two social media teams planned this together or it's just kismet.
Previously, the Carolina Panthers had a few cheeky tweets making fun of the new policy, only to later delete them.
