Maybe because we’re focused on football itself now as we move along into the season because reports show that there’s an increase in TV rating in Week 3.
NY Post reports that Week 3 had a 2.6 percent rating gain after the New England Patriots versus Detroit Lions game ended. This specific game was actually the best football game for NBC since 2015 (13.6 rating).
Over the past two weeks, ratings declined 0.3 percent but are currently up 0.7.
