Team from the biggest market played the most popular team in the league. So, yeah.

Put in any other team not named NYGiants - results would still be the same.

Possibly. With Dallas considered to be a contender this year, the NFL will experience better ratings because of the cash cow it often seems to treat like a red-headed stepchild.

Look at the ratings of next weeks Cowboy game at 1pm EST vs Commanders.
Look at the Fox game of the week ratings - late game. Then compare it to this coming weeks ratings.
Which I think will be Saints - Rams.

TV Map shows the Cowboys - Commanders game will be seen by about 50% of the country.
Saints - Rams by about 60%.

I guess these ratings are why even though I live in the Philly area, the cowboys are on TV here usually at least 13-14 games a season.

Every week the NFL does its best to make sure the cowboys are televised in as much of the country as possible.

 

[Fletch]

America’s Team!

So perfectly stated.

Could you imagine the ratings if the Cowboys made it back to the Superbowl? But the NFL wants to be like the NBA, which struggled with ratings last year LOL

 

[shabazz]

If The Patriots could have played AB that game it would have shattered records

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

Put in any other team not named NYGiants - results would still be the same.

Hmm, I don’t think Miami - Dallas will be beating out Ravens Chiefs in week 3, or Rams Browns SNF

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

I imagine that the ratings for the Cowboys-Saints game will be huge. Especially if both times are undefeated at the time.

Ravens-Chiefs maybe, but Rams-Browns ... seriously?

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

Ravens-Chiefs maybe, but Rams-Browns ... seriously?

SNF, nfc champion vs the most talked about team in the offseason? Yeah
