All ratings were down except one

Dallas in prime time is the one constant for ratings no matter what. Other matchups can get big or even bigger ratings but they must have some type of intrigue associated with it or only fans of those two teams are watching. Everyone watches Dallas. You are either a Dallas fan or you want to see them lose.
 
Truer words...

I'd like to see Jerry pull off some SEC type subjugation of most the league via a power move to prevent revenues substantially, unless the cap is massively inflated or removed..

Maybe sue the league for individual team TV rights, while conspiring with the NFLPA..

The NFL's remaining teams would be crippled..

I'd bet the Cowboys, al la cart, would generate at least 20% of total tv revenues currently, if not more...
 
NFL, can we please not get any nearly unheard of or extremely hard to justify or describe calls against us this year?

We'll continue to hold up our end of the bargain and give you excellent ratings either way. Which you obviously know.
 
There are many reasons for the ratings drops.
The local blackout rules and the way too many games are locked out from most fans should be considered.
People shouldn't be locked into watching their local team only on too many weeks. This is hurting peoples interest in other teams and the product in general.
The directv deal is bad for the sport. When people have to illegally stream your product you are doing it wrong.

If Zeke doesn't serve his suspension this year, I think you can almost guarantee that the calls are going to go against us in the playoffs. The last thing the NFL wants is a scenario where Goodell is handing a Super Bowl MVP trophy to a player that hasn't served his suspension for a domestic violence incident.
 
Ratings will always be high for our team if we have winning or losing seasons.

Football fans either hate or love Dallas. The hate is just as great as the love pertaining to high ratings. I have a ton of my friends that watch the Cowboys just to see them lose and mock me.

Good article.

There are a lot of people that are more Cowboys haters than they are fans of another team.
 
The Chargers have several tickets available for this week's game, and they play in a tiny 30,000 seat stadium.
