Those would be some rich TV contracts with no fans to watch them
TV contracts have zero stipulation in regards to amount of fans watching.
Networks obligated to pay unless GAMES are cancelled
they could have a 0.0 rating and still have to pay
so no, fans are minor in all this, no matter what YOU think

if they have 0.0 ratings, the tv company will pull the contract.. so yes it does matter... people will lose LOTS of money if no one watched and it would have a major impact.... imagine how much money would be lost by the owner if 0 fans showed up to the stadium to watch the game.... if that happened once, this strike would be over

Speaking of what YOU think...you have no idea how media buying works.
The networks pay the NFL for broadcasting rights to their games. In turn they sell ads based on guaranteed GRP's. If the networks under deliver they have to provide extra commercials free of charge to advertisers to meet their GRP obligations.
Begin your education by googling Gross Rating Points and then read This
