FedEx "Plays of the Game" - Do they do this at every stadium?

I usually make it to one game a year, and yesterday was unfortunately my occasion to see a game this season. There was something they did at the game that I thought was a little strange, but I don't go to enough Redskin games to know whether they do this every week, and I haven't been to any other NFL stadiums, so I don't know whether other teams do it as well. Here's what they did: during a TV timeout with a little more than 9:00 minutes left in the game and the score 22-20, they started announcing and showing on the Jumbotron the "Plays of the Game." They showed the offensive pass of the game, offensive run of the game, defensive stop of the game, and at least one other.

I realize they want to keep fans entertained and maintain a certain level of crowd energy, but "plays of the game" with 9 minutes left in what was then a 2 point game? It struck me as being stupidly premature, but, as I said, I have little to compare it to. Do they do this at every game? Do other teams do it?

I don't know about other teams, but Yes they do this at every game I've been to which is every home game for the last 4 years.

I was at a Eagles Bears game with a friend, and they did it there, but at the end of the game after the Bears drove 97 yards for the winning TD.
