Report: Majority of NFL teams don't want to keep pass interference review rules

A significant majority of NFL teams are opposed to renewing the pass interference review rules passed last offseason on a one-year basis, according to a survey obtained by The Washington Post’s Mark Maske.

Just how many NFL teams want the PI reviews to end?

The exact numbers, from the Post:

Of the 29 teams to respond to a question about whether they would be in favor of making the rule permanent, 21 said no and eight said yes.
