Chiefs/Bills game drew 30.8M viewers for a regular season game. World Series game 7 with Dodgers/Blue Jays drew 26M viewers.

One was played on a Saturday Night, bad time slot.
One was played on Sunday afternoon, when people are home. People were invested with gambling, sports pools, fantasy football.
How hard is it to figure out, gambling and fantasy football are the NFL life line. They make NFL teams submit injury reports for the books and bettors.
You have to follow 162 games in MLB, and fantasy baseball is a job.
Any tard can follow 17 weeks, 1 game a week. YOU can auto draft a NFL fantasy team and win your league, w/o knowing a single person in the game.

Those are US numbers only. Canada had 11M watching the Blue Jays (not clear how many Canadians were watching Bills/Chiefs though)
Don’t know Japan’s numbers. Old ESPN article says Japan was averaging 15m through the first two games of last year’s World series
From this year
quote:
A total of 18.5 million Canadians, or nearly 45% of the population, watched some or all of the game, with viewership peaking at 14 million in the final innings.
Average Audience: 10.9 million viewers
Total Viewers: 18.5 million (at least some portion of the game)
Peak Viewership: 14 million in the bottom of the ninth inning

In Japan, despite a 9 a.m. local start time, Game 1 averaged 11.8 million viewers on NHK-G, making it the most-watched World Series game ever in Japan on a single network and the third most-watched World Series game overall.

Buddy this isn’t a one off, NFL dominates live TV like no other. That game could’ve been at 8 AM on a Tuesday and it would’ve done numbers

The top 11 most watched live events in 2024 were the NFL. Something like 32 of the top 50 live events were from the NFL

You really don’t have a very good argument. NFL dominates regardless

The numbers compared to fan interest/happiness never seems balanced to me.
Why do people watch so much NFL football?

People like football? Even if it's not their brand of football they still watch apparently

Well yeah NFL is king and nothing is even remotely close.
Posted on 11/5/25 at 7:40 am to bcoop199

Both occupy TV niches.

It’s casual fans… think the 50 year old grizzled ladies at the bar. Or younger adults whom you never really see watching anything else.
