Seahawks-Cardinals actually drew good TV ratings

The long NFL matchup of sorts finally came to an end with a 6-6 tie after overtime on NBC — missed kicks, missed opportunities and making some history that no one is probably proud of with the first tie without a touchdown in the NFL since 1972. All of which gave SNF a lift with an 11.6/20 result in metered market ratings after such a frankly terrible game.
To put in context, last night’s game was up 22% from the Houston Texans’ 26-23 OT win over the Indianapolis Colts last week, which posted a five-year low in MM ratings for SNF. In a season that has seen the NFL pummeled with ratings problems and an increasingly vocal cultural divided over player protests, the Texans-Colts game went on to score a 4.9/16 rating among adults 18-49 and 13.6 million viewers in total – down a full point from the October 9 Green Bay Packers 23-16 win over the NY Giants.
In MM numbers, last night’s results are the best SNF has done since the September 25 Dallas Cowboys-Chicago Bears game, which got a 12.9/21.

Why would it not? It was pretty entertaining

Games don't have to have each team score 40+ points to be entertaining. The 1990 49ers/Giants Monday night game ended 7-3 and is one of the best games I've ever watched. My biggest complaint with today's NFL is the number of flags, especially on the defense in the passing game.

CFB fans on here will not be happy with this news.

oh how the mighty have fallen. now we're running the numbers against previous weeks of the same season that's seen a significant decline.

UPDATE, 8:59 AM: It may have been one of the most lackluster and error filled NFL games ever but last night Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals 6-6 in overtime match-up on Sunday Night Football (5.3/15) proved a winner for NBC. After weeks of weaker and weaker results and multi-year lows, last night’s SNF was up 18% among the 18-49s over last week’s fast affiliates and 8% over the final number
8 million less people, on a "good" night, is not a good sign.

8 million is a lot but the teams involved could be driving a lot of that. Eagles-Cowboys is a far bigger national draw than an NFC West game.
I know viewers is the key number at the end of the data but there are dozens of factors playing on it in the background. Spoken like a data analyst that has to explain shite like this.

Let's check in on the ratings next week when the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles are fighting for first place in the NFC East.
Zona-Seattle is a great matchup, but doesn't draw much interest on the east coast. Just like an Atlanta-Carolina battle wouldn't draw a ton of TVs outside of the southeast.

Both teams are doing well so the ratings should be huge....at least in the beginning. The NFL will be praying that it stays competitive.

It was a fascinating gsme to watch.. Without a doubt for me, it was the most of any non saints game I've watched all year.. How anybody me could think that game was boring because of the defensive prowess in display is beyond me..

I agree. I hate that some people feel like a game has to have 50+ points scored in order to be entertaining.

The NFL game did dodge a Cubs game 7, it will be really interesting to see next Sunday NFC EAST Battle vs Game 5 from Wrigley.

No it's not. The devastation continues
