BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Each of the 32 teams in the NFL play in at least one Thursday game during the season. The broadcasting rights are currently split between NFL Network, CBS, and NBC, with Twitter digitally streaming 10 of the games, but changes could be on the horizon.
The faltering ratings and lowered viewership during the 2016 season is causing the NFL to take a closer look at what is working and what isn’t as the contracts for broadcasting come to an end in 2017. more
Except the Patriots. Their ratings are still good.
That must grate on Goodell’s nerves.
Bwahaha!
John Madden was correct: the NFL has over-saturated their market … in the age of instant gratification there are alternatives to constant yellow flags & boring replay officiating of every play
… & the Colin Kaperdick support is a fiasco of their own making ….
“NFL to take a closer look at what is working and what isn’t”
That ass-hole, America-hating, shitpickle is what’s not working.
Can him.
I haven’t watched a single game this year, usually I watch at least every Bears game. I just don’t want to be triggered by the BLM goofs, so I’ve exercised my right to turn off the boob-toob!
Put the Steelers on every Thursday. Problem solved.
College football is more fun to watch than the NFL, and has been for years. IMHO, anyway.
I don’t watch futbol much any more. I’m too busy with other things like trying to get a forty five year old basement in some sort of order.
I admit though, that I did watch Colon Copperdick of the 49ers get clobbered by a young Cuban yesterday. I watched the replay ten times. Trilliant!
Luckily the NFL is thinking of franchising in Mexico… they are run by friggin’ geniuses…..gobble ,spit pew…..
I wish they would do away with Thursday night on NBC. It interferes with one of the few programs I actually watch: Chicago Med.
49ers management of ‘their’ new stadium also follows.

NF who?
Uhh … well … football, huh?
The NFL’s a charity, isn’t it?
Doesn’t have to pay taxes like other entertainment organizations.
What about all that “fair share” and other bullshit?
izlamo delenda est …
When you strip away the emotions of following a favorite team the game is actually boring to watch.
A lot of standing around and commercials and reviews.
I would catch a game here and there long ago. Then I started to notice the players were getting in trouble, I mean criminal trouble that none of us could get out of, and nothing happened to them. No suspensions, no finger wagging no nothing. So I cut down to watching only the superbowl. Then they started with politicizing the half time shows, clothes were falling off, lip syncing, etc. Fuck it. Done. They turned a good sport into a ‘people of walmart’ festival. Not interested.
Criminal trouble? What do you mean? If Joe Montana kills three people, what do you call this?
Answer: a new NFL record.
If I had only known that commie C&$%sucker Kapperdick was gonna get creamed last night I would have watched (at least the last play), but other than that….I say FUCK THE NFL!
The best years of Pro football were over decades ago.
I’m done.
I no longer watch the Not-for Profit NFL, I sure don’t want to be accused of oppressing those Multi-Million dollar conceited wizards of the pig skin or the owners of Billion dollar stadiums.
Talking about pig skin, how does Colon, the newbie muslim, and other players who are followers of mo”HAM”mad feel about hugging that pig? Aren’t pigs haraam to muslims or you can play with them but can’t eat ’em?
What’s the NFL? With the way the colleges are, what’s college sports?
Anymore you can find momma and I doing the strangest thing to entertain ourselves and in the old fashioned way… we talk to each other.
Of the top five NFL games this season the Cowboys were in 4 of them
Live for the flag or die by it. Your choice NFL.
Do I have to pay them something for typing NFL?
I wanna see twice as many fuck tards taking the knee and drop
the ratings even lower. Maybe we could get some good tv back.
Watching these rich thug life dimwits run around chasing each other dropping balls, jumping early before the snap, doing pretty dances after doing for what they are paid million$$, swinging their dreads, beating chests, and having frown pity parties when they screw up is now-a-days boring to me. The refs suck ass at the calls and the rules are interpreted “when is a catch a catch” (like gymnastic scores type stuff) The announcers other than “Chucky” are irritating has been gasbags that seemingly feel they are why we tune in. Sikh ice hockey announcers speaking their home language is much more entertaining.
They never should have taken away the marching band half time show.
It’s not over saturation of anything except thug millionaires who continue to talk down America.
Best moment on Sunday for me was tuning into the last minute of the 49ers-Dolphins game and watching Colon get reamed by a large Cuban!
