Early-season ratings decline continues for NFL (Update: Ratings plummeting((officially in free fall)

[FTBS]

Fantasy is probably one thing helping it chug along tbh

Yup that and gambling. There is a massive number of people that couldn't care less about football that are following shyt just because of their fantasy team or their bets.

Unfortunately, Goodell is the best thing to ever happen to the owners money-wise. If he wasn't fired with all the shyt he's been a part of already, he will not be fired for a long ass time.

Once again kodi out here winning breh. Forcin networks to change their business model. shytty thing is eventually they'll get together to try to ban kodi.

No big rivalries without PeyGoat and Shady

Fantasy seems to be declining

Too many penalties on shyt that wouldn't have changed the outcome of the play. U need to wait like 20 mins before celebrating touchdowns now.

And of course penalties and fines for players showing a glimpse of their personality.
I miss

The game just isn't good right now coupled with the fact they have way too many commercials during a game now is hurting the product

Fantasy football 'ruined' it.

I still watch Bears games, and the afternoon game(s) if they're not good I just keep them on in the background

That counts in the ratings.

Yall do realize that while everyone in here is pointing correctly to the terrible product, the media and a simple Google of nfl ratings is pointing the finger at the breh Colin kaep...

the NFL jumped the shark that night in Seattle last year. Its been negativity since.

I think the league has topped out and will start to decline.

the league jumped the shark last year, brehs

The downfall was with those replacement refs fukking things up, culminating with the Green Bay vs. Seattle farce ending. Its been nothing but negativity ever since.

Ratings about to take an even further dip with the debate coming on Sunday.

And it'll be in St. Louis, the very city this shytty league shytted on to force the team back to LA.

Yall do realize that while everyone in here is pointing correctly to the terrible product, the media and a simple Google of nfl ratings is pointing the finger at the breh Colin kaep...

if colin kaepernick were responsible for the ratings drop, that would make him more powerful than goodell, and every owner/personnel member of every team in the league.

colin kaepernick doesn't even have enough power to start for a team he led to the super bowl. he might not even be on the 49ers if chip didnt think he could still get his career back on track.

if they actually pin this on him, they're dumber than i thought.

They put Bears on primetime twice, that Steelers/Chiefs game was awful...the games just aren't that good man...it's all about matchups and good games...shyt been awful and u have Buc/Panthers on Monday Night smh....that Giants/Packers game going be great and do.great tho...cause its Arod/Eli, NY and Green Bay and ODB controversy... Its all about having good games man

 

[Piff Perkins]

They need to dead these stupid penalties. I'm fine with hands to the face, but nonstop interference calls are killing this shyt. Not letting players celebrate is stupid too.
