NFL Chief Marketing Officer Mark Waller will join ProFootballTalk Live today to discuss the NFL’s plans for an 18-game regular season, and why the league believes the fans are behind the idea.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is pressing the case that the fans want an 18-game season, even though most of the fans we’ve heard from at PFT say they like the 16-game format -- and even though an Associated Press-Knowledge Networks poll found that only 27 percent of respondents strongly favor or somewhat favor adding two regular-season games and dropping two preseason games.
Florio and Waller will discuss the NFL’s own research regarding fan support for 18-game season.
As Florio mentioned this morning, Peter King of Sports Illustrated and Football Night in America will also be joining him on today’s show.
You can watch PFT Live at noon ET right here.
