It isn’t about Brady Winning Without Belichick, it’s About the Ratings

Brady and Belichek

Do you know what the real story is? It isn’t about Brady winning without Belichick, it’s about the ratings (Bwahahahahahaha!). Reformatted, emphasis mine:

Super Bowl ratings 2021: Numbers for Buccaneers-Chiefs plummet from last year
The Super Bowl 2021 ratings are finally out — and they’re not great.

CBS announced on Tuesday morning that 96.4 million viewers watched the game across all their platforms, “including the CBS Television Network, CBS Sports and NFL digital properties, Buccaneers and Chiefs mobile properties, Verizon Media mobile properties and ESPN Deportes television and digital properties.”…CBS did tout the game as the most live streamed ever, with 5.7 million viewers on digital platforms.

While CBS didn’t announce the number of viewers who watched the game on CBS, Sports Business Journal reported the total number was 91.629 million. Concerns in the sports media industry grew when the ratings for the game were not released on Monday, which is highly unusual.“Super Bowl numbers are still being processed and verified,” Nielsen said in a statement on Monday night. “We anticipate that final viewing figures, which will include Out Of Home (OOH) viewing, will be available to the media (Tuesday).”

Last season’s Super Bowl, a Chiefs victory over the 49ers on Fox, averaged 102.1 million viewers across all platforms

Given the number of former high profile Patriot players on the Buc’s team, could Belichick take partial credit for a “Patriots South” win? Even in weather that requires mittens?

The NFL, I’m betting, is probably going “with the two most hyped quarterbacks currently playing, where’d our audience to?  Got a simple reason:

Get Woke, Go Broke.

We fans want to see FOOTBALL, not get lectured by SJW pampered millionaire game players. We just want to see the players playing the game. I believe that folks just can’t stand the constant hectoring from the Moralizers.  Football used to be America’s sport – when it turned on half of its audience, they did like me.

You get my eyeballs no more. It is clear that the NFL has more downside to go before it realizes it’s got to grovel a whole lot more and get the reputation as another professional sport that has joined the Hate America First movement.

And no, I didn’t watch the game. Like I don’t watch the NBA or MLS baseball unless a late game interrupts the biased WMUR news reporting of which I only want to watch the Weather report anyways.
