Decades of excellence, storied names and lots of fans... they were big time when the league became "the thing to watch".

Don't care about the Cowboys.

The only thing that can make me even begin to consider watching a non Chiefs NFL game are the Raiders or Broncos playing.

How can it be a better league when ratings are in the toilet? They are just saying something to have something to say.

jjchieffan 11-07-2016 06:40 PM

You would have thought that last night's game would have been a boost to the ratings being the Raiders are so good for the NFL and the Donks are the Superfarce Champs. Both teams come in with a 6-2 record, so it was between 2 teams perceived to be good in a rivalry division game. That should have been a big ratings game. Nope.

The Broncos-Raiders game drew an 11.7 overnight rating, down significantly from last year’s Week 9 Sunday Night matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys. That game drew a 14.7 rating.

And it wasn’t just the primetime game: according to Sports Business Journal’s Austin Karp, ratings for the national CBS afternoon games were also down 20 percent compared to Week 9 in 2015, and the Fox window at 1 p.m. was down 9 percent.

As noted by Pro Football Talk’s Michael David Smith, ratings have now been down in 26 of the 27 NFL primetime games this season.

This pisses me off to no end. The Cowboys are obnoxious enough without a winning record. Now I can't turn on the TV without hearing about them.

It's not. Nut both teams have big fanbases so while that is better for the league, it doesn't make the league better. If I get a better job, that's better for me, but does it make me a better person? No. Same thing here.

Agreed.

I'm telling you man, that abortion of a Super Farce turned off a TON of fans. No one bought that as legit. There is a huge number of fans tgat think the NFL is WWE like. Mumble mumble Budweiser.

Unfortunately you are right.
