Some games are shown nationally
29 teams are down...so it's not an issue of whether the team is good or if the matchup is good or the geography of the teams involved.

You are taking this out of context. Someone said something about it the Dallas-SF game being crappy. Some else said something about ratings being down regional I was pointing out that game is national.
As to your broader point I mostly agree all the factors you listed have hurt the game and can impact ratings. But there could be other factors as well including things you dismiss. For example maybe the election did hurt last year and the protests this year. 2 years still really doesn't tell us a longer term trend.
