Are Legacy Games Hurting NFL Thanksgiving?

  • The NFL is gearing up for a big holiday weekend with its annual slate of Thanksgiving games.
  • FOS writers have a roundtable discussion about whether or not legacy games are hurting the appeal of NFL Thanksgiving.

The NFL is gearing up for a big holiday weekend with its annual slate of Thanksgiving games, and its second rendition of a Black Friday game with Amazon. Front Office Sports writers Alex Schiffer, Margaret Fleming, and Amanda Christovich join the show for a roundtable discussion about the NFL’s legacy Thanksgiving games, plus a little Thanksgiving trivia.

Also, Front Office Sports Today is going on hiatus during the Holiday season. Owen and the Front Office Sports Today team gather for a roundtable discussion about their favorite guests and memories from the show, what to look forward to in business and sports, and what the team is thankful for heading into the Holiday season.
