2026 Score-a-Treat Multi-Sport (20 Packs)

2026 Score-a-Treat:   Ray Lewis is about as scary as any player out there.  He was a 7X 1st Team All-Pro.  For reference, the all-time leaders, Jerry Rice and Otto Graham, had 10X 1st Team All-Pro selections and Tom Brady, for all his greatness, was only selected 3X.

Not having a license in any of the major sports didn't scare Panini off from releasing a set specific to the Halloween season.  In this set you'll see baseball, basketball, boxing and football cards.  Here we have a Holo Bones Parallel #/149, Pumpkins Parallel, and Holo Webs Parallel.

Plenty of retired greats in this set and we get Calvin Johnson on a Slime Parallel.  I'm not usually a fan of sets with no team logos but I picked these up since they were new, they are cheap, and they are Halloween themed.  That Dan Fouts card is a base card with white borders.  He led the league in passing yards 4 straight seasons and passing yards per game for 6 seasons.

NIL players are a big part of the set including 19 of the 60 cads from these packs.  We also see RC cards.  Plenty of youngsters across the sports.

Monster Bash cards are one of the subsets.  Not sure how much I feel "monster bash" with this design.  I think they could have hammered that home better.

These cards are sold in a "bundle" like Panini's previous Halloween themed sets.  There are 40 packs per bundle with 3 cards in each set.

The design overall is fine.  I wish every card had a Halloween type of border but still these are okay.  I didn't see these at Wal-Mart so I did grab two bundles on eBay.  I'll share these in the upcoming years in 20-pack increments.

Haunted House is the other subset and I like these.  We get a haunted house in the background which gives us a good visual.  These are fun cards for the price and theme, and perfect for October.

2025 Score-a-Treat Football (20 Packs)

2025 Score-a-Treat:  Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers have struggled this season and overall haven't quite been up to expectations in recent years.  He's only 28 and he and the Pack can still turn thing around.

This is another good Halloween inspired design.  Marlon Humphrey is a 2X 1st Team All-Pro and 4X Pro Bowl selection in his 10-year career with the Ravens.

Jeanty and Judkins are two of the good young running backs in the league.

I like the combination of spooky season and the NFL.  Good job Panini.

The backs are okay, but we don't see the same Halloween esque elements they added to the back of Panini's 2024 Score-a-Treat offering.  A step back in my opinion.  We also had Bats Parallels in that set.

I'd love to see Topps do something similar now that they have the NFL license.  Maybe even an insert set or some type of parallel would be nice.  These cards were sold in "bundles" which had 40 packs of 3 cards each.

And our retired greats.  Defensive back and Hall of Famer Ken Houston had 49 career interceptions while being named a 1st Team All-Pro 2X.  He played 6 of his 14 seasons with the Houston Oilers.

Random Wax: 2024 Score-a-Treat Football (20 Packs)

2024 Score-a-Treat:  Patrick Mahomes really is scary.  The 3X Super Bowl Champion and 2X MVP is only 31 which is young in NFL quarterback years.  It's been nice to see him bounce back this season after being injured last season.

Some defensive love with some of the best in the game today.  These cards are lots of fun.  I enjoy spooky season and the NFL so this is the best of both worlds.  Good design.

Bo Nix has done really well as the starting QB in Denver and much more is expected from that young man.  Brian Thomas had a great rookie year but hasn't been able to recreate that magic since then.  With a name like Kool-Aid I had high hopes for the corner in New Orleans but it doesn't seem like it is to be.

And we get retired greats like we do in the Score base set.  Jeff Saturday was a 2X 1st Team All-Pro, 6X Pro Bowl selection and won a Super Bowl with the Colts.

The backs are just as fun.  Plenty of color and Halloween graphics to keep up the spooky vibes.  These cards came in "bundles" which had 40 packs with 3 cards per pack.

More greats of the game from today and years past.  Roger Staubach didn't start his career until after serving in the Navy and wasn't a full-time starter until age 29.  He is 6th all-time in starting quarterback winning percentage and led the league in passer rating 4X in his career while winning 2X Super Bowls with the Dallas Cowboys.

Random Wax: 2023 Score Football Blaster

2023 Score:   A nice card of Hall of Famer Charles Woodson to start this post out. One of the all-time greats at corner, he was a 3X 1st Team All-Pro, 9X Pro Bowler, Defensive Player of the Year, and won a championship with the 2010 Green Bay Packers.  His 65 interceptions are tied for 5th all-time with Ken Riley.

I've always liked this design.  It really feels like the Chargers are missing out on some prime years of Justin Herbert's career.  They've won 10 or 11 games in three of his seasons but just can't seem to get over the hump and be a true contender.  They sit at 0-3 this year in what might already be a lost season for the Chargers.

Nice photo on this Nick Bosa Sack Attack insert.

Jahmyr Gibbs already has 3 Pro Bowl selections and has twice run for 1200 or more yards in a season.

That first card is a Lava Parallel #/565 while Tee Higgins shows up on a Gold Parallel.  We also get Zay Flowers on a Protential insert.

Huddle Up cards are fun.

Good looking cards and we get some good photography as well.  The bottom of these fronts always make me think of a scoreboard.

Fun Celebration card in the snow.

Big fan of these First Ballot cards.  The Hall of Fame logo is so sharp, and I really like the 2023 design.  And it doesn't get much better than The Sheriff.

Myles Garrett is banged up in his first season with the Rams but I expect he'll back to his dominant self once he returns.  Cooper Kupp has won two Super Bowls, with those same Rams and the Seattle Seahawks.

Great photo of Jalen Hurts on this celebration card.  Definitely a trend.

Love the All-Time greats in Score.  Ronde Barber is a 3X 1st Team All-Pro, member of the Hall of Fame and on the All-2000s Team.  47 interceptions for his career, which ironically ties him for 47th all-time.

Khalil Mack is in his 13th season and still with the Chargers.  Great photo.

Always fun cards and a great pull in this box.

Random Wax: 2021 Playoff Football

2021 Playoff:  Tom Terrific has 13,400 playoff passing yards in his career.  #2 is Peyton Manning with 7,339.  That's crazy.

I've always liked the Playoff brand.  A few good looking designs over the years including this one.  Josh Allen and the Bills are off to a 2-0 start and are looking good.  They get the struggling Chargers today.  Allen is already 14th on the all-time playoff passing yards list with 3,915.  Cameron Jordan is in his 16th season in the league with 132 sacks to his name.

Love the retired greats in these sets.  Chad Johnson was a 2X 1st Team All-Pro which is no easy feat.

Najee Harris has rushed for 1,000+ yards 4X in his career.

A-A-Ron and the Steelers' offense are struggling this year, but he looks good on this Call To Arms insert.  He's 3rd in career playoff passing yards with 6,040.

Jalen Hurts and Matthew Stafford have thrown their fair share of playoff passes but not on the scale of those others.

John Elway is 9th on that list with 4,964 yards passing in the post season.

Random Wax: 2021 Score Football

2021 Score:  Josh Allen and the Bills have high expectations again this season.  Hopefully some of the small tweaks and coaching change can get them over the hump.  He passed for 3600+ yards and 25 touchdowns.  He also added 14 touchdowns rushing.  Not his greatest year but one almost any team would take.

Wow, the quarterback landscape has changed in the last 5 years.  And yes, I bought this pack 5 years ago and showing it off for the first time.

None of these three made their mark on the NFL.

These 3D inserts are pretty cool and include retired greats.

I really like that Deion card.  I'm a fan of him and he looks great in the GOAT Falcons red jerseys and all the red works for me on this Game Face insert.  I do like the Next Level Stats but I'm not sure those stats are really "Next Level Worthy".  No offense to Chase Claypool and maybe I'm missing something.  Derrick Henry on a Score Team insert.  Henry is still a beast.  He rushed for over 1500 yards and had 16 touchdowns last season at age 31.  

Good looking Collegiate Champions insert.  I'm a big fan of these with photos from both college and the NFL.  Reggie Bush was also part of that 2009 New Orleans Saints Super Bowl winning team.

I like all three of these photos.

NFL games start tonight and I can't wait!  Some great tight ends and another retired legend.  We'll end it with a great Davante Adams photo.
