And the reality is that they are even worse this year because covid should have prevented people from getting together, which would have increased the viewership numbers as compared to years past. So to answer someone who actually thought the NFL wasn't hurting, they are. buuuuuuaaaaaahhaaaaaa!


Per CBS and Nielsen, the Buccaneers’ 31-9 win over the Chiefs Sunday on CBS drew 96.4 million viewers across all platforms, including several streaming services. The Chiefs’ win over the 49ers in Super Bowl LIV last season averaged 102 million viewers in total.
On television alone, CBS averaged 91.6 million viewers Sunday for the mostly suspense-free game, down from 99.9 million for last season’s Super Bowl.
It’s the smallest television-only viewership since Super Bowl XL, which capped the 2005 season. That game, a 21-10 win for the Steelers over the Seahawks, averaged 90.8 million on ABC.
