If ratings are down by 20% I'd be really damn concerned about winning those fans back instead of justifying a contract that restricts fan options.
The DirecTV contract was bad to begin with. But it's really bad today in a world where fans are watching significantly more shit online or streaming. DirecTV/ATT can and should offer Sunday Ticket to a mass audience. But until they do, the NFL will keep taking a bigger hit until the 2 sides adjust to reality. Goodell's Twitter deal suggests he gets it.
