Denver being a media darling any longer makes no sense. Manning is gone.

Down 11 percent but based on what? Hiw are they gathering that data?

I could see how you would think that, you guys haven't won a SB in your lifetimes.

I was 2 when kc last won one and don't remember how I felt then.

I know how I felt when Denver won their 3 SB's though. It is the greatest feeling ever and you forget about division rivals who suck because there is pure joy.

Falcons caught us with a rookie 1st time starter and a RT who was just as bad as Schofield was last year. I really think they were looking towards the SD Thursday night game.

Teams lose games, even the Pats. kc has dropped 2 already, one on National TV in an even more embarrassing fashion.

Google "NFL ratings down"

What do you mean how are they gathering data? Same way they have been for decades. The NFL even sent a letter to the teams about it.

That's complete bullshit. A 1 loss team coming in, but let's worry about the 1 win team we play next week.

You have provided a measuring stick for ratings, but we really don't know if that measuring stick's criteria is valid anymore. For example, does it account for people that don't use traditional content delivery systems?

What? You either watch the game live or through nfl sunday ticket.
They know the numbers and it's not down due to hulu or whatever. More importantly those are the numbers that matter because they're the ones that the NFL uses to justify billions of dollars in tv deals.

Why are you arguing with the facts?

You can watch the games through gamepass, streaming NFL network, ESPN streaming and so on. they have even streamed a game with twitter. The NFL may use them but are we sure they accurately reflect changing content delivery?

I don't believe it's being measured properly or accurately, because I don't believe football fans stopped being football fans in 6 months. Maybe one of the biggest factors is the NFL allowing it's franchise employees to disrespect our country. So as you suggested in the first post of yours that I quoted, it's not because of "media darlings"

Oh they didn't. Denver lost fair and square. I was just giving Black Op a hard time.

They know all those alternative viewing numbers. That's easier to track than OTA ratings shares.

Numbers being reliable or not, they are still consistent with the formula, and the numbers are down.

You're arguing about how ratings are tabulated. The networks and the NFL aren't. Not a tough decision on who probably is better informed.

So, again, the facts are ratings are down 11% from last year.

This is not the point you want to fall on your sword for.

#Broncos GM John Elway says Gary Kubiak will get this week off, health-wise. So he won’t coach Thursday.
