"NFL Films Presents" (1982-) is one of two programs that splintered off from what was initially known as "This Is the NFL." That weekly highlight show produced by NFL Films has been presented under various names since its inception. The title often changed in accordance with the program's changing sponsors. Over the years, the show has been known by different titles: "This Is the NFL" (1965-1966); "This Week in the NFL" (1967-1968); "This Week in Pro Football" (1969-1976); "This Is the NFL" again (1977-1980); "NFL Review and Preview" (1980-1981); and "NFL Week in Review" (1982-1986). In 1977, NFL Films transformed a version of this program into "Inside the NFL."
Additionally, in 1982, they launched this magazine-style program based on this format. Similar to "This is the NFL," this magazine show has had various titles over time, including "NFL Weekly Magazine" (1982-1985), "NFL Films Presents" (1985), "This Is the NFL" (1986-1994), and eventually reverting to "NFL Films Presents" from 1995 on.
