The Bills draw huge viewership numbers

[nedboy7]

Most people I know love the Bills.  I hope they dont read this board during games.  That would be embarrassing.

The Super Bowl keeps rising in numbers because of access to the game growing - its not the teams. It could have been Detroit - San Diego and it would have had 123 million.

Whether its Bills-Dolphins, Bills-Steelers, Bills-Broncos, Bills-Ravens, or Bills-Chiefs ... the Bills consistently have the most watched or 2nd most watched playoff game of the entire round theyre playing in.

It's the Bills.

 

There is no chance this is true. Viewership varies, but anyone with even over the air network access has been able to watch for free.  No special/extra access needed.

 

The last 2 SBs with KC had 25 million more viewers than LA-Cin just 3 seasons ago.  Lots of people hate-watch the Chiefs, you know.  Everyone here will be tuning in, despite what they may post....

The SB has been steadily rising every 3 years for 50 years.

2000: 84 million
2003: 89 million (KC wasnt playing
2006: 93 million (KC wasnt playing)
2009: 106 million (KC wasnt playing
2013: 112 million (KC wasnt playing)

Then in KC's Super Bowl against TB, it tanked: 95 million

Next year with the Rams: bakc up to 99 million

etc.

Last years Super Bowl had 20 more million viewers than Cincinatti... but thats after a KC Super Bowl plummeted the viewership's by 5 million the year before! Cinci was higher than KC.

Hate to break it to ya. Its not KC.

so it's some magical force of nature that makes the ratings go up only on the 3rd year?  lol

 

you left out 2016, when the ratings were down from the previous 2 years.  

 

you left out 2019, when the ratings were down from the previous 2 years.

 

KC vs TB was down because Tampa has no national fan base and people were tired of Brady in the SB.   KC/SF and KC/Phil had better ratings because of the opposing fanbase size. 

 

Rams/Bengals had no national appeal other than as a game to watch--neither team has a national fan base of note.  Ratings dipped for Rams/NE as well.

 

As soon as KC was back a year later (2023), a massive ratings increase is seen, and then since.

I know one Bills fan that won't be watching the superbowl. I already know the story so why bother.

No it's access to more and more viewers. No magic about it. The NFL has made expanding its audience a priority.

That doesn't help your case.

The NFL went through a 4 year viewership slump from Super Bowl 2018 to 2021. 

KC was in 2 of those 4 Super Bowls.

No, it has nothing to do with that. The year before that had a SF with a massive market and it was 10 million lower than 2016.

Rams/Bengals had a higher viewership than KC the year before.

You dont have any idea what youre talking about, but I'm sure you will continue to reply and pretend like you do.

I'll allow you to have the last word.

Bills have been one of the most liked teams for years. My guess is at some point (probably now) that will wear off due to the consistent failure

I think, whilst Josh continues making explosive plays, people will continue watching the Bills. And, as said, if it involves the Chiefs there will be a degree of hate watching.

right… everyone needs 3 seperate tweets to clog up the board and reduce load times 🙄

 

 

Red herring to cover up your failure. Always cite your source so we know where you got it from and the info is reliable. Simple thing to do and common sense.
