No matter who dresses up as what at the NFL offices in New York, it’s not likely that their Halloween costume will scare Commissioner Roger Goodell more, than the ratings for Monday Night Football. According to Deadline Hollywood, “With a 7.2 in metered market results, last night’s MNF was down 9% from last week’s Philadelphia Eagles’ 34-24 triumph over the Washington Redskins.
“While not the season low of the October 16 battle between the Tennessee Titans and the Indianapolis Colts, last night’s Chiefs vs. Broncos match-up is very close to the previous MNF season low of the October 9 Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears games.”
Deadline Hollywood continued, “Year-to-year, last night’s Week 8 game was dead even with the Week 8 game of the 2016/2017 season when the Vikings and Bears pulled in a 7.2 MM rating in their October 31, 2016 match-up.”

Keep it up sane Americans. Maybe we can get rid of Dictator Goodell and the ESPN aholes at the same time. Then we can start to clean up the sport and make them “fun” again.
I’m a Chief’s fan, and I would be thrilled they are finally getting some prime time games. Two Thursday night games and two Monday night games, but I refuse to watch. Whether it is the diaper pin wearing Alex Smith, or the perpetually kneeling Peters, it’s not that hard to find something better to do.
If a viewer wouldnt want someone to kneel during the national anthem live in their own living room, what do the players think he will feel about it if he has a remote? Do these idiots think that their contracts will protect them from a bankrupt nfl?
This is how I know the Buffalo Bills are going to win the Super Bowl
Because no one will be watching.
It’s very weird watching a billion dollar business commit suicide. Seems to have become a thugocracy the evil white man can’t save. The stupidity is mind-boggling.
The nfl, its "games", their "scores", the players are ALL totally irrelevant and utterly meaningless.
The nfl has become like the ancient gladiatorial games, the Circus Maximus; the famous gladiators and the charioteers of "renoun" from the ancient Roman Empire.
Their arenas are nothing but crumbling ruins and who can recall or name any of their "famous" gladiators or charioteers? The answer is no one! This is the fate that awaits the once "glorious" nfl:
Ozymandias
I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: `Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal these words appear --
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.'
Percy Bysshe Shelley
This is the future that awaits the nfl, and they destroyed it all with their own hands!
ALL THEY REALLY CARE ABOUT IS THE MONEY, THAT IS ALL!
They literally strangled to death their fan base "goose that laid all of their billion dollar nfl solid gold eggs" with their own hands. The goose is permanently dead and they killed it! Now, all too late they want to put Humpty Dumpy back together again and resurrect the goose from the dead.
This is rich, the National Felon League chose to side and kneel with hate America, only blm, sjw, hate whitey, communist anarchists over America and their own nfl fan base and now their fan base has been totally alienated and the very monsters they willingly aligned themselves with have turned on them and are now eating them alive.
All too late the nfl has awoken to the reality that the entire league, has an INCURABLE CASE OF SELF INFLICTED FINANCIAL EBOLA and is hemorrhaging money out of every conceivable orafice to the tune of HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS A WEEK with no way out and no end in sight.
The once financially lucrative nfl is circling the toilet bowl into obscurity and is quickly becoming totally irrelevant and financially worthless.
We choose to STAND with Americans for America; we choose love of country, we choose patriotism, we choose to "Live Free or Die", rather than "huddle up", "bend the knee" and subjugate ourselves, our families, and our beloved nation to the black racist, socialist, sjw, PC tyranny and perverted ideology of the National Felon League.
They want us to compromise our patriotism, our love of country, flag and nation and symbolically join the NFL in show of rebellious "unity" but "What fellowship does light have with darkness, good with evil (and subjugation for the sake of 'unity')?"
The answer is a resounding NOTHING! We can have no "unity" with those who hate our nation, its flag, its values and with those who despise us.
The anti-American National Felon League has, to quote Admiral Yamato: "awoken a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve".
We are at war; the NFL started this cultural war against US, against America and they are attacking EVERYTHING WE STAND FOR, BELIEVE IN AND HOLD NEAR AND DEAR.
Like WWII, there can not be any, truce, or "compromise" for the sake of their false notion of "unity", no "cessation of hostilities" with the nfl and those who have made themselves our enemies with out a cause.
We Americans who love our county more than any game have now taken up the fight forced upon us by the nfl and like "the greatest generation" we too will settle for only one outcome: NOTHING LESS THAT THEIR TOTAL SURRENDER!
Do these idiots think that their contracts will protect them from a bankrupt NFL?

Yes, because they think money jus pose ta be der.
When you sit back and reflect a while, it is amazing how much damage President Trump has done to his opponents, and his opponents have done to themselves since he became president.
Starting with Hillary's billion dollar loss with nothing to show for it, the money wasted on losing campaigns like Ossoff, and the democrats donors refusing to donate, the party doesn't have much money left.
The ratings for the NFL go down, helped by Trump's tweet. Trump isn't attacking the NFL, rather the broadcasters who televise the games, and who also own the anti-Trump news media. They have lost hundreds of millions.
Now Hollywood is scoring own-goals of bringing their sexual harassment problems into the light.
Finally, the Podestas, some of the main fundraisers for the democrats, have folded their lobbying group as Mueller is getting closer to them.
All without President Trump or deplorables taking any damage ourselves.
I live in the Denver area. When the Denver teaam first took a knee I changed the channel and have not tuned in to the MFL since. The Denver Donkeys can snort sh*t for all I care. I don’t want to watch the racist black pampers!
While I know why the ratings are tanking, you gotta consider that the two particular teams maybe also had something to do with it? Seriously, the Chiefs - and the Broncos? Come on.
Because no one will be watching."
I think you're on to something.
its jaw dropping...especially the owners..esp Jerry Jones kneeling like that...WTF was he thinking..that pic will live forever and he’ll be associated with that forever...man, talk about not thinking something thru..
I was a huge Denver Broncos fan up until a bunch of ignorant thugs started dissing my flag and my country. Now the entire NFL can just go to hell for all I care.
I can live without pro football just fine. Since they’re not acting like professionals and instead, are acting like spoiled babies, I’ll find something better to do on Sundays.
Oil base vs Latex paint drying time is exciting to watch!
Vegas odds forthcoming.
The league has achieved pairity their all losers. If there ever was a year to fire players this is it. I read an article on ESPN about the Seahawks game that had no mention of the score of game. That’s a problem the players aren’t very good
LOL took me a couple seconds to read that....
[ Now the entire NFL can just go to hell for all I care.

Same here.
Die, NFL. Die.
The disaster of the Obama years showed me what I can easily do without and the NFL is definitely one of them. I’m sick of all the “game day” promotions, commercials, anyway.
Tonight, at the start of Game 6 of the World Series, the Dodgers had a female officer of the LAPD sing the National Anthem. Now that is smart PR!!
