NFL 2010 Pre-Season Rankings

Even though the NFL Season is still weeks away, fans, teams, and the media are getting excited for another year of NFL football. ESPN.com recently published their “2010 NFL Power Ranking,” which ranks all 32 NFL teams based on their overall talent and quality as a team. At FanSnap, we were curious to see how ESPN’s rankings matched up with tickets prices. That is to say, we wanted to create a “FanSnap NFL 2010 Pre-Season Ranking” list based on average NFL ticket prices in the secondary market for the upcoming season. Below are the results, with ESPN’s official Power Rankings in (parenthesis), just to the left of the average price.

The New York Giants are a middle-of-the-pack 16 on the ESPN list, but the G-men are tops in ticket demand in part because they play out of the biggest sports market in the U.S. But, The Giants and the New York Jets share something that is driving up demand and ticket prices — their brand new home, the New Meadowlands Stadium.

There are a few surprising results on our list, especially the New England Patriots rank of 27th in fan demand. Boston sports teams are consistently some of the hottest in all of sports. This year, Pats ticket prices are down compared to the rest of the NFL.
