Dark humor NFL fantasy football team names to consider before 2024 season

Choosing a team name in fantasy football is just as important as choosing your players. Your team name indicates your team's uniqueness and the banner under which your chosen players will compete to win. Having said that, any fantasy manager should explore a wealth of originality instead of settling for a dull team name.

Selecting a fantasy team name that aligns with your persona is important because it reflects the manager's personality. While choosing a name for your squad, you can also draw inspiration from your favorite comedic works, musical compositions or movies.

While managers of some fantasy football leagues want their teams to sound clever and entertaining, managers of other leagues demand crude and humorous team names — and the darker the humor, the better.

You can choose to use any of the over 50 dark humor-inspired fantasy football team names we've provided below as you see fit.

Habib's favorite team is the Cincinnati Bengals and he particularly enjoyed their run to the Super Bowl in the 2021 season. The 2016 Super Bowl between the Atlanta Falcons and the New England Patriots is his most favorite of all time, and if given a chance to go back in time, he would love to witness the Patroits’ incredible comeback from being 28-3 down to winning 34-28.
