That Dolphins/Jags match-up is really gonna test the limits of people watching football next week

Unless Tua starts, in which case there should be some level of intrigue

Eventually everyone will watch the NFL. The NFL knows they want to watch and they will watch no matter how much social justice or BLM. They cant help it, football is second nature. Theyll watch some saints or for Burrow, or other ex-LSU players or even fantasy.

While true I also don't know how heavy handed it will be after putting on a show Week 1 just like the MLB did.

I mean last night the teams stood at the middle of the field and only a very few actually kneeled during the anthem. IIRC no player had any other name or slogan on their helmet and it was actually a pretty damn good game.

So just a tad more than last year and it had to compete with the NBA.

Not bad for a Bengals vs Browns game

The Lake Show is playing next Thursday so next week’s Thursday Night Football ratings will be especially horrible.

NFL Network is on more subscription plans now. I had to watch the panthers game on my phone via Verizon. It was that bad. The fact that the NFL didn't have more than 6.68 is not good.

It was going up aginst the NBA and NHL finals as well as being a game featuring Cincy and Cleveland. Not exactly an exciting match up
