Most Americans could give a toss about that, if they are entertained by something, they'll watch it despite people kneeling during the anthem.

Good job NFL, yesterday's games were superb!!!
Except for the lousy officials.

Bad? With different officials, might have been Saints-Chiefs Superbowl.

The product is not what it was, but they have been not showing the National Anthem anymore, nor the mixing of entertainment with politics anymore. I know actual attendance suffered, but ratings, I don't know if I believe they go better. The NFL is hoping people forget about the players forcing their politics into entertainment people are paying for to relax, and not be lectured.

I think the increase in the ratings is due to many of the games being close right to the end. There have not been to many outright blowouts this year which makes it more exciting to watch.



I'm sure the playoffs will keep the increase in ratings moving up.


GO PATS!
I see the players surreptitiously kneeling in the huddle all the time, don't think for a moment that I don't know what those commies are up to

Yeah true, I would like that much better than the Rams-Pats. The Rams should go all out in trying to win, to at least prove they belong in the SB. I know lots of people wanted to see a Rams-Chiefs rematch from that epic Monday night football, where both teams scored over 50 points. I'm really tired of the Pats though.
